Who you calling "common"?
The OP was offered a free replacement or a full refund, with all shipping covered by Marstar. I believe the OP then changed his complaint to stating he thought he paid too much for the product.
Marstar offered full replacement or refund, but OP decides he wants to keep this pistol and take a discount. I guess the discolouration doesn't bother him too much after all.
Jon, I would say at this point Let him pick one of the options they are ALL fair for what the way he is conduction himself, and say if you don't pick one i consider the matter closed and that he is happy with the product.

And yet again I think john spends way too much time dealing with this type of thing, make an offer that fair and move on. hell he's probably still reading this tread!
OK ALREADY;
Please read my earlier posts....
The customer was not satisfied, he had a valid issue....
He posted here, sent me several e mail, several PMs, my offers were made, replace the barrel, the pistol, a refund ? No replies....
The customer then called the office, (yes we have staff) since he was complaining about a defect he was passed on to our gunsmith (Frank) once the issue was clear Frank made the owner the very same offers, he delcined....
A few minutes later the customer called Frank back and began the entire rant again, saying he wanted to keep the pistol but wanted a discount, in an effort to apease the client Frank immediately offere him a 10% discount on the pistol, "not enough" he replied and refused the offer.
Now this gentleman is quick to ##### about communications, yet he has NOT replied to the vast majority of our efforts to resolve this matter....
And on, and on , and on we go
John
Just spell come differently and try it again :D
I think that went over my head
