$100 can get you two big sacks FULL of stuff.
If not you're doing it wrong.

The only things marked up more than fireworks are generic drugs.

Good one.
They're marked up ridiculously.

If you purchase for the price theyre asking, a voluntary transaction its not a ripoff.

You wouldn't believe the mark up on consumer fireworks. From a wholesaler a case of 500g cakes runs $25-$45. They usually charge more than that for a single cake. That being said they make most of their money off the cheezy kid items. A case of snakes or smoke bombs for example contains hundreds of the product for about $18... at a buck a piece the profit margins are huge.
I use to travel from central Arkansas to a wholesaler in Joplin. For the price I would pay for a truck bed full of good stuff at a tent I would fill a Uhaul top to bottom at the supplier.
