Once the owner returns I'm sure the the attitude will not be there seeing how you have spent so much money there. In reality the attitude shouldn't havebeen there anyways.

This is one of the only situations in life where we are expected to pay more with a smile because of some sort of customer to shopowner loyalty that is supposed to exist. And if it's broken- scorn be to you.

For instance the local mathews dealer sell his Switchbacks for a full $90.00 higher than another dealer in my state. IfI were to go save $90.00 and buy at the other shop (be it further away) my local dealer wouldn't look at me the same whenI paid him a visit from then on out. That's just the odd way it is I guess.
