Do you replace the bad arrows?
No, I couldn't do that for two reasons. First, what would I do with the 'bad' arrows. If they were brought back, who's to say how they were treated once they left the shop. If I sent them back to the manufacturer, they would say that they were used arrows and subject to no warranty.

Second, if I returned the volume of arrows that you're proposing, my shop would be 'blacklisted' by the manufacturers and distributors. In other words, they wouldn't sell me any more arrows.

The best way to handle this situation is for the consumer to return the arrows to the manufacturer. They can't 'blacklist' you and they might be influenced by a large portion of their market making returns.

As far as "advertised tolerances", .......[:@][&o][:'(]

We advise the customers as to what yield they can expect from various brands/styles. If they want, we help them select the better arrows for hunting and they use the rest for target practice.
