Hi! I recently bought a hi power clone at Bill's in Wisconsin. As he was ringing me up, the clerk told me "Thank you for buying that, I was really thinking about grabbing it myself, you saved me $300". I wish I had thought of the rejoiner "I could say the same thing, why didn't you buy it sooner?" =)
Anyway, I couldn't take it home with me immediately because I needed to, by law, buy a pistol in the state I live in, so they transfered the gun to another Bill's store in MN. When I picked the hi power up the next day in Minnesota, I overheard the Minnesota employee (different guy) say the same thing to another customer buying a used gun (a 30-30 Henry). "That's a nice rifle, I'd been considering buying it myself for a while".
Huh! I'm pretty sure it's just a coincidence, and I bet both guys were, in all likelyhood, being truthful. Is it possible, though, that the clerks had "conspired" to say this occasionally to used-gun buyers, to make them feel like they were getting a good deal or something? :biggrin2: I seriously doubt it. It was just funny to hear the same thing from two different employees of the same store chain, on two consecutive days =) And I appreciate the gun a bit more knowing that someone else thought it was good, too, so I'm grateful, even if they are telling a white lie =)
