    I remember now...

    On Saturday, I went to a local gunshop...which shall remain nameless...rhymes with Shmebbers...to see if my gun had arrived...it hadn't, and after some pleasant small talk, my wife says to me "c'mon, buy me a carry pistol" well, reluctantly, I went into the newly renovated pistol section and found the gun I was interested in, and patiently waited for the salesman to finish with another customer...now, mind you, I was pointing and drooling and almost licking the glass case and hovering over this gun, so anyone with 3 brain cells would have recognized an interest in the piece, but as this guy finished up with the first customer, he walked right past me, ignoring me as I started to speak to him, pushed past me and walked out of the room without as much as an acvknowledgement that I was there...now, maybe I have forgotten how customer service is supposed to work, but he lost a sale that day from me, and in the future. Sorry, I just had to vent, it seems that unless the guy (any guy, ijn any shop, bow or gun) is interested in you specifically, you're out of luck! Too bad, I probably would have bought the gun and made brownie points with the wife, so now, I'm shopping for the same gun somewhere else.

          Don't blame you, I would have left too. Maybe the sales guy needed to go really bad, just sayin'.

                      Your way too nice. I would have gone up to him, in front of his buds and thanked him for not waiting on you. Then tell him that you were about to purchase a pistol but not from here. Don't let these zeros get away with poor service.

                        Nah...I do with every retailer exactly what I do with bowshops...they have one chance...then I just don't go back...no matter what. It's unfortunate that they don't want my business, but that doesn't mean I will go back and be ignored over and over again...I also usually don't come on here and complain about businesses either, but this one struck me as funny...sorry for being out of character.

                          That would of made me RUN by you... Heck, I might not have even finished the sale with the first guy.

                            I've heard a lot of complaints about that place over the years but they always have been great to me or my family.

                              I will not do business there anymore. Some of the most disrespectful people I have ever tried to do business with. My recommendation is to go talk to Archie out in Heidenheimer at A&C, if he does not have it, he will find it for you.
