Looks like a scammer (they only accept apply pay, google pay, bitcoin) is using the run up in prices to steal information/payments.
American Reloading has Midwest Powders and is legit (and has some primers as I write this).
But people do a lot of searches for load data for "midwest powders", so some clever Cyprian (that's where it is registered) created MidwestPowders.com. This month. The website shows it takes credit cards, but nope. It also lists an address in PA that doesn't exist as their retail store. Supposedly in business since 2013. Other red flags: $15M in stock inventory. "Call us" but no phone number provided. The 'about us' is badly edited and talks about Armerlex Armoury which is also/was a scam site.

But the real kicker was: every brand and kind of primer (WSP, CCI #41, FGMM) was in stock!
