I am in that camp and think it is a shrewd business appriach on several fronts. It avoids the hype let down 'house of 1911s' experience. Food for thought.

    I look forward to eventually seeing what is for sale.
    X 2. I think the issue is people are just not wanting to be fooled by the "house of 1911" brewhaha that another vendor did to generate traffic and interest. We all know your sales are legit, people just wanna plan and spend money ahead of time and not be strung along like the legendary "house of 1911" thread.

    Perhaps you would be kind enough to advice me on how to reply ?? What is enough inventory for that week ? What will or will not be in demand ??

    Guy probably got bit by an ultra mega sale at some other dealer who was either clearing out old not-in-demand inventory or had only 1 or 2 of most items that were being hyped.

    The savvy Marstar shopper knows that you do business more honestly.

    I would love to know what the "House of 1911's was. Maybe someone in the know can clue us all in?


    Really though, with all due respect to this Dealer, and no offense to anyone.

    I am looking for certain things with a limited budget. Also will be travelling on the 26th 27th etc so internet access may be limited. So am just trying to plan which websites I am going to go to and where I am going to spend my Santa Cash with the limited amount of shopping time I will have over the Holidays and obviously will go to the websites that have what I need on sale, vs going to everyone's site to see they are already sold out or didn't have it on sale to start with.

    I am sure I am not the only one in this boat.

    Hope everyone has a Merry Christmas. And I hope Marstar has my stuff on sale and lots of it so everyone gets a whack at it

    I think it's funny that people are getting upset over a sale from a dealer. Looking forward to seeing the sale when it's ready. Will probably spend more than my girlfriend will like. I hope you do the Mosin, sks, svt deal again

    I don't think many folks are getting upset, just used to the other guys different way of putting on a sale, no big deal and Johnone is being a bunch more patient than I could be! Having said that, there is something to be said for posting what will be on sale and percentages, it seems to generate more activity, one recent sale got over 300,000. Hits! Not sure if that generated more sales or not which is what it's all about but they did say they had over 900 purchases in 4 days!
