Long story, but I have a Gun shop Loyalty rant to talk about.
I been buying lots of unique & fun guns over the past few years. But I been running into a gun shop trend.
1: After you are a establishment customer, they stop caring about keeping as a Customer
2: No wiggle room off the price because they know you will just buy it. but before they would wiggle.
Kinda Sucks to be a nice Guy sometimes. I stop going to one shop because of the top reason (well only buy a few guns a year) and they were offended that I stop going there. I did find a new shop but I’m running into the same issue. They look at me as a Sure Purchase and put ZERO effort into keeping as a customer.
Example. They had a beet up Old Leather Holster marked for $25, I ask $20 out the door, manager was like $25 plus tax. I spend tens of thousands there…. very frustrated but I just don’t care anymore really.
Time to look for a New Shop! lol
