    Unhappy Granpa's pawn and guns

    I recently bought a gun from an out of state dealer (Bud's Gunshop in Lexington Ky) Their prices with free shipping beat everyone's by 150 dollars I had it shipped to Grandpa's . When I went in to pick it up I was informed that the transfer fee would be fifty dollars because it was from Bud's. The owner is P.O. ed at Buds because he can't sell guns for what they do.

    Just a heads up if anyone is thinking of doing transfers with Grandpa's in Longmont. He has lost any future business with Me.

    I would go to their website, print out the page for transfers where it clearly states that they charge $35 for them, and demand that they refund the difference. That is complete BS that they would have a special charge for guns coming from Bud's!!! Perhaps they should post that on the website and in their store. I've made a couple purchases from them, and I've never been overly impressed with their customer service, but I wouldn't have said that it was bad either, but this is not right. It's like they knew they had you by the ____ and decided to stick it to you because they feel they can't compete with a company that has clearly decided to go with the "sell a lot at a small margin" vs Grandpa's trying to get as much as they can on each sale.

    Edit: They do have a contact email on their website of rodtwobears@aol.com if anyone wants to voice their displeasure with what they did to wulf11acr.

    I'd call and let Bud's know about this.

    yeah, as much as I understand local guys upset about online sales, that's just bad business practice. Bullshit...

    You still saved $135. Chalk it up to experience and don't use them again.
