Who knows, it's possible he doesn't have a huge number of them and is doing this to show he's cheaper than Davis. They're both in Appleton and I'm sure there's some competition there. Not sure if there's any personal history between the two, though.
I believe Rex used to be an operations person with Davis before starting BTL a few years ago.

I totally agree that Davis' prices are ridiculous in most areas. For example - the MLU Gray Wilson shin guards are $79.90 there...higher that most places. And Davis' shipping costs are no bargain either.

I have bought a few items (a Wilson Dyna-Lite mask this spring, a pair of the A3409 Wilson black shin guards 2 years ago) from a small retailer named CAT Sports in Indiana. Much lower prices ($10-15 lower on the mask, $15-25 lower on the shin guards) than other places. Shipping was great - got the order in two days. IMO, there are very few reasons for me to shop at Davis. Their prices are normally MUCH higher than others.
