Interesting and unfortunate but wasn't me.. I've been out with respiratory infection all week. Must have been Eric? Brown hair medium build? I'm the owner, Carter, the big scruffy one. We're still sanding off Eric's rough edges. Over twenty years of military service in the field and I think like 7 deployments don't really prepare you for a life of ass kissing and retail shmoozing as your first civilian job. This is generally the point where I try to be all accommodating but I'm coughing up a lung and can't muster the energy.
As far as I can tell, you are more upset at the tone then the price, which I can understand. Our prices are set percentage over cost. As we have to buy guns fr every distributor known to man just to
Keep the shelves full we pay sometimes significant variations in price from different sources or even just at different times. The prices quoted are for that gun at that time. You chose not to buy it, someone else did. Best of luck in your search.
Also, considering this is our section of the forum that we have complete control over, I'm wondering why I don't just delete it, but felt you deserved an answer.
Thanks for the reply, and honoring the post. Im not upset with the price, rather how quickly the conversation escalated. I had every right to question the price raise. I dont sell guns for a living, so theres no way for me to know how pricing works with distributors. I think any customer who viewed a item and came in to buy 17 hours later would politely ask why the price had gone up.
Am i crying over 50.00, no, I chose to walk out because when the words" why did the price go up" left my mouth the dude almost jumped over the counter. Everyone is armed in that store, I didnt want to do business with someone having anger issues packing heat...in a gun store....over 50.00
I had no attitude in the store, and meant none with this post. Perhaps your man was just having a rough week, he just needs to understand theres more "casual buyers" out there than there are "gun experts".
Ill give OGC another try, will try to catch you in person when Im in. -thx
