Not going to quote the entire article like I usually do because it's long, but the gist is that Shopify, which is used by more than 600,000 merchants, is giving everyone who sells firearms and firearm accessories the boot. The ramifications of this are pretty serious as it can stop online commerce for a lot of manufacturers cold.

Never used it, never came up with any of its merchants on my regular lowest price searches. Canadians. Screw 'em.

Who are they? Wait, I don't care.

Curious as to how many of the 600,000 are firearm and accessories merchants. This could hurt Shopify's pockets in the long run also. I know I've never needed that site for anything firearm related so I could give a damn.
Good day, eh.

I've never heard of shopify.

Me neither. GARY.

It's on the shelf next to the orthopedic insoles and the Metamucil how you old guys miss it is beyond me

I've never heard of it before the article either but apparently if you've ever ordered something outside of Amazon, Gunbroker, Ebay, paypal etc, the storefront probably was. The entire point is like credit companies, they wield a whole bunch of power behind closed doors.

I hope I'm not the only one who thought that Spotify (https://www.spotify.com/us/) had a hidden gun section with all the free music.

Not really as the vast majority of its "storefronts" are casual and one time dealers, only 10% or less are legitimate or full time dealers. With the big discount retailers and a bunch of online megastores providing selling services today Shopify is facing major headwinds.
