Default RE: Question for proshop owners & employees?

Yes, definitely let him know the difference and that you're willing to work with him. Keep in mind that freight is a key factor in large items. It is so much an item that I've been told that prices on this particular item is going to change quite a bit in the next Cabela's catalog.

I actually keep a Cabela's catalog on my countertop to show customers how we meet and beat a lot of their prices. It can be done if the shop is a member of a 'buying group' and freight and wait is considered. Sometimes I find the customers coming back when they find that 'good' price is not in stock. When catalog errors are made, that item may conveniently become an 'out-of-stock' item.

If he's a smart businessman, he'll probably find a way to work it out with you. Thank you for asking and wanting to support your local shop.
