Ok,
So, I buy this rifle and have it shipped to my FFL. Now, it comes in with the bolt ripping a hole in the box and a big inch long deep dent in the wooden stock. So, I pay the FFL fee and leave the rifle with them so UPS can inspect it for the claim.
Well after 3 months the claim check finally comes in. My FFL starts complaining about how much time it took and how much the long distance calls cost. I was planning on spending the money with them on supplies and some ammo. I can afford to give them the $40 or so they say it has cost them in time and I will probably do this.
But, isn't this what the FFL fee is for? Do they expect the fee to be easy money all the time or is it normal for them to expect me too pay for their time?
Just wanting some ideas opinions. I don't feel ripped off, but I don't want to come away from this feeling slighted by my FFL for something the shipping FFL did wrong in wrapping the rifle.
