RE: Define a PRO Shop
First & foremost I'm not bashing the proshops, but I have just one question regarding proshops? Why is it that they must charge higher prices on accessories when u can get it for a third cheaper. I'm sorry, but I have to work very hard at saving $$ up for my hobby. A perfect example is, the local pro shop carries muzzy broadheads for $35. The exact same broadheads are $15-18 at the "big-box" stores. I would gladly & w/o hesitation spend my money @ a pro-shop if they matched the prices on thoseaccessories. I'm not sure why the price is expected to be so high for the same item. Another question is, why is it whenI'm spending a grand to purchase a bow they want to charge me $35 to set it up.I need to make my money go as far as possible, & what money I save, I will use to buy other items. I am willing to pay extra for thepros knowledge in fine tuning, repairs, etc. They are the experts, & should be compensated for that. I completely agree that some of the big box stores, Gandr Mtn, etc.(not Walmart)don't have the personnel w/the knowledge that the pro shops do. Nor would I expect them 2. Any insight to this?
