Mansfield Oil Company of Gainesville claimed in a federal lawsuit this month that it was never paid for more than a million gallons of fuel from a terminal in Pennsylvania between late May and early July — nearly $4 million worth.
The general estimate I have is that the unpaid gas might account for around 20-33% of what they sold during recent months.
So not all of it, but not insignificant amount, either.
Best I can find is that this wasn’t part of the strategy - selling at a loss to gain attention (which worked WILDLY) was, and that their prices crept upward over time.
So they are scum, for sure, for several reasons. But worth nothing that’s probably not directly related to the loss-leader pricing, nor Trump’s stupid blathering (he has no further connection other than posting about it).
