Default RE: Would I be offending....

I already said I was just going to go ahead and buy everything there, I was just continuing with my initial thoughts of how difficult it is to make such a decision.

Do any of you just walk into a store and buy something that is six or seven hundred dollars without so much as checking elsewhere? You may, if you have that kind of money, but I don't, so I do as much research as I can to find the best deal possible. And frankly, I find people who do that to be quite naive, that is if money is in fact an issue. I just see this as very black and white. Regardless of where a fella buys his bow, his accessories, etc., the shop owner has an obligation to do the same quality work on your bow as he would with a bow sold in his shop. Will he throw in a little freebie here and there if you buy it there....maybe he will, but I highly doubt those two and three dollar freebie's would add up to the amount of savings a buyer could find with some snoopin' around.

I guess I'm just venting as I am still not happy about being told (no, not you guys, someone with a lot more power...MY WIFE!) that I am getting everything down at the shop.

Again, thanks guys.
