Expired Business
Many of our customers have been asking when we expected to receive our Grandpower shipment....In fact it was due two weeks ago....

we have hit a bump in the road with Jaro and company....
After having agreed to a contract, purchase agreement, delivery schedule, etc, etc....

We paid for the shipment only to have Jaro later back out of our agreement, cancel our order, etc, etc.... He did return our funds, less all banking costs....

I was shocked to say the least, however it appears to boil down to the fact that we were not willing to charge the higher inflated prices....As dictated, as you know Marstar always tries to offer the lowest possible prices to our customers....

One should take into consideration that a few years ago we were "exclusive" in Canada for Grand Power only to have them back out of the deal because they had a larger commitment (and promises) from another importer, that fell apart and they had no dealer in Canada for the past few years....

Only after meeting with Grand Power and having them make all sorts of promises to us did we consider returning as their dealer in Canada....

It not the first time people have refused to sell to Marstar because our prices "are too low"

We will move on and continue to buck the trends of many companies that dictate higher prices so that unrealistic discounts can later be applied....Marstar values its customers too highly to travel down that path.

Fair deals at fair prices, that's what we have done for 28 years, that is what we will continue doing....

Wow.... Pretty sad Mr Jaro and Grand Power... That is a very poor ethic to run your business.

A real shame, as I love my GP6 and was looking forward to buying more of the GP branded pistols. If you can't respect your business contracts and arrangements what faith can I have in your support of my fire arm as an end user. Very sad to hear this Jaro... Your pistols are phenomenal and unique. It's unfortunate you don't want to share your passion with Mar star customers.
 
John,

I wasn't aware that much of the content of your PM to me was repeated in the public forum.

If you feel you've been wronged, I don't begrudge you your desire to vent about it.

However, there are two sides to every story. Jaro is a member here.

I really don't want to see this turn into a NEA style tirade. Rebuttals are not likely to do anything more than provide train wreck entertainment.

My words are my own, but I am sponsored by Grand Power.
 
If Mr Jaro is a member here, why not asking him to tell everyone the other side of this story?

I never saw John posting lies here.
 
John; with respect, your statements don't make any sense to me, please help me out here. Marstar bought and paid for a shipment of product and the supplier backed out because you were selling too low!!!! Correct me if I'm wrong but once the supplier has been paid his price per unit, what does he care what you sell them for? Marstar could sell them for absolutely 0 profit if it wanted to...no skin off the suppliers nose!?! Sounds like a bit of a tantrum on your part for a deal gone sour for reasons (real ones) unexplained. (flame suit on...just remember who started the thread is all I'll say)
 
This is sad news. My first 9mm pistol was a Grand Power K 100 from Marstar. I was looking forward to getting a new recoil spring and perhaps updating the original sights from John.

Rather than continue to reply to the numerous questions asked by our customers and members here on CGN I simply posted the facts as they stand.... If anyone here thinks I am not being forthcoming I would welcome the correction....

You can't win for losing, if I don't keep our loyal supporters updated we catch hell, if we do update folks we catch hell.... such is life....

"I wasn't aware that much of the content of your PM to me was repeated in the public forum."
As I noted below, I thought it easier to reply here, once, rather than keep repeating myself time and time again....

"However, there are two sides to every story. Jaro is a member here."
I would welcome any comments, perhaps even contradict me and say that my statements are not correct ?

"I really don't want to see this turn into a NEA style tirade."
I could not agree more, I certainly hope that my explanation will be taken as simply that, an update on an unfortunate situation, not to be taken as an open discussion....

I will say that if the company was in North America we would have taken legal action....

I have bought from John and Marstar for years now. To me John is of good character and Marstar is a reputable business. I stand by them.
 
This is from Blue line post "We have just signed an agreement to be the exclusive Canadian distributor for Grand Power products." My guess this is probably the reason why Jaro backed out. He is limited by contracts too.
 
That's enough for me to make a conscious effort to STEER CLEAR of anything associated with Grand Power. Thank you for keeping your prices down. You'll make back the bit of loss on one deal with multiple purchases from repeat buyers anyway!

" My guess this is probably the reason why Jaro backed out. He is limited by contracts too. "

I hope this does not drag on, our order/contract was already in place when they made the agreement with another company, our agreement was violated....
