Well let's see???? You went there in February and shot 3 different bows to get the feel. It's OK for someone to buy the bows you test fired but you won't buy one if it's had an arrow through it? The rest can be changed or upgraded. Sites, restetc are accessories...... you get the one you pay for. The bow has a warranty whether it's out of the box or shot a thousand times. The Bowtechs don't come with them. I'd say you're professing one thing..."it's out of the box or I'm not buying".... and "Oh, I want you to set up these bows for me to try out". A dealer can't do it both ways unless you're willing to wait for a couple weeks for a bow to come in. Give him your deposit. Tell him you want new and stop your crying. If you wanted it sooner you should have ordered it sooner. Bowtechs are hot and they go fast. Dealers can't keep them. I was in a Mathews dealership not too long ago that was trying to get the Bowtech line because that's what people wanted and he didn't have them. He still doesn't and probably won't. Discouraged??? Upset??? Mad??? The guy is out of bows. It cost a lot of money to stock them. They try to stock what they think they'll sell and not much else. They come in a variety of draw lengths, weights etc. They can't stock them all in hopes that the guy that shot a couple arrows from 3 different bows in February walks in the day it arrives at his store. It's a small business that demands managing and not overstocking. and... WHAT should you do???? Buy from the Internet???? Are you serious? You have no idea what you'll get from the internet and there's no return. It could be shot a zillion times.... and you won't find a new bowtech there. I waited a couple months for my bowtech. My shop owner waited a lot longer for a left handed bowtech. That was the production schedule, lefties waited until they answered the call of the majority... right handed folks. and to think... you're worried about a couple arrows through a bow.
WOW!!!

I had to pick my jaw up off the floor when I read this response. Please tell me that you are kidding? If not, wow!!!

I agree with the orginal poster 100%. If I busted my A$$ to save up hard earned money to buy a NEW bow, that is what I want!!!

I would NOT want a bow that had been used as a tester. Espically not at FULL price!!! If the dealer knew he only had one bow left and it was the "tester", he should have informed the gentleman that the "tester" was the only bow that he had left in stock, but he would sale it to him if he wanted it.

Obviously you have no sense of the business world when it comes to customer service.

The demands and production mean squat to a customer.A customer wants a product. He doesn't want to sit there and listen to this and that about demand. However, a "reasonable" customer would understand if the product he is trying to buy is a "hot" item.

If this takes place, its the DEALERS place to "satisfy" thecustomer with"words" or a simular product.


I am all for supporting localshops, but if they don't have what I need, damn right I will order it on the internet. Whats wrong with that? Not a thing. Just b/c its on the internet, doesn't mean itssomemega store that is putting the little man out of business. It may be a very small hometown type business that just seen the "light" when it comes to internet sales.

As foryourwarranty.....a lot of warranties aren't transferable. it may be in this case, i don' t know, but i wouldcheck. alot of companies also only stand by their warranties ifthe product was bought NEW and/or from a certified dealer.

I am just sittin' here wondering whatgives you the right to bash this guy for doingwhat probably 99% of us would havedone.

I couldgo on and on, but I would sit here for hoursin regards to your reply.
