2shots Posted June 21, 2008 Report Share Posted June 21, 2008 Iwould have told him to stuff it and went elsewhere, even miles away as long as he didnt get my cash. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dirty Harry Posted June 21, 2008 Report Share Posted June 21, 2008 Who was it who told you to come back? Harry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edward Posted June 21, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 21, 2008 I dont know his name he was an oldish chap I think he was the owner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirty Harry Posted June 21, 2008 Report Share Posted June 21, 2008 Yes, that would be the owner. He has always been helpful when I have been there. I think that he has a farm and shoot to run aswell so his son has more to do with the shop. They seem to do all the shows around the country. I have been there a few times when they have been low on stock and staff because they are all away. I think it's a nice shop and the prices are not to bad.

Edward Posted June 22, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 22, 2008 I was amazed at the fact that they went to the highland show I have brought stuff from them before theyve always been very good. He was very apologetic and uesay sois going to put one aside so hopefully I will get it tuesday eve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

harv Posted June 27, 2008 Report Share Posted June 27, 2008 Glad your sorted i find it unbelievable that shops as mentioned earlier carry on like that,they always moan about low profit margins too much competition etc etc. if thet treated the customer as a customer they might even come back!!!

njc110381 Posted June 27, 2008 Report Share Posted June 27, 2008 I've bought a lot of kit from Roger (shooting supplies). His service is pretty good and until I found a more local shop that was half decent I used to drive there from gloucester even for my ammo! I too refuse to give money to shops offering poor service, so good on you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lloyd90 Posted June 28, 2008 Report Share Posted June 28, 2008 My local shop is selling the Escort for £400 new. Where is the shop you got yours ? Does it have a website ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edward Posted June 28, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 28, 2008 No they dont have a website the shop is called Shooting Supplies and is in an industrial estate im sure its in the phone book. Hope this helps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
