$30 for anything that walks through the door, $45 to clean it. It's very shitty of the business, and the bitch to laugh at you when they should have called you.

I think the $30 is there as a minimum...meaning if they spend time diagnosing, etc. I understand that.

SO they take out the mechanism, 2 pins basically, and see theres nothing wrong. I feel like its time to call me and say its fine but needs a cleaning that costs $XXX. I then have the decision to say no thanks and just pay $30 and clean it myself.

I only brought it because I figured I had somehow snapped the firing pin.

I just smiled and paid the bill because Im sure it wasn't her doing, but instructed to do so.

I was ready to pull the trigger and order a new Versi Max from them as I've been looking.

Won't mean much, but I plan on sending the place an email and letting them know I own 15+ guns and now have 3 kids that are beginner hunting age and guns will be bought for all and I was about to pull the trigger on the VM.

I do not sweat pricing too much, I just ask for respectful business practices. He lost a steady customer and I lease with 4 other area hunters who know the story and won't ever show up there.
