RE: Question about your local pro shop loyalty??
If I bought a complete setup from someone and he charged me for installing a rest or peep or anything of that sort.The bow would be left on the counter for someone else to buy.Especially if I were a repeat customer that had spent tons of money in that store. Good thing I do all my own instalation.They should charge for peep sights and such because they actually have to buy them.
If I brought in a bow that I bought elsewhere,then yes they should charge and yes I would expect it.
This,imo is how you get a good customer base built and keep them coming.
I had a tire place that I had bought atleast 4 sets of tires and they also did all my oil changes for several years,plus many other jobs.They never cut me any deals and I went in to get a tire fixed,all it needed was a patch,they charged me $10.00.I thought that was wrong but said what the heck.I had to go in again later to have a tire swapped on rims and patch a tire.This time they charged me $20.00 .I was po'd.They have made several hundred dollars off me and new me by name.They made $30.00 off of 10 minutes work.I hope they spent that $30.00 wisely because it was the last money they ever got from me.
The new place I went to had to patch a tire (on my wifes car) that I got from them and they didn't charge me a dime and that was after only buying 2 sets of tires and they are cheaper.So who do you think gets my buisness and anyone I know that is looking for tires.
This is just customer service and it goes a long way.
