    Retail law states, posted price on a product store must give to customer for posted price. I don't blame the OP at all. I wouldn't go back either if they tryed to pull that kind of BS with me. There is more than that gun store to spend money at.

    I really don't care how people approach me in terms of customer service, Mistakes happen. I got .22 from P&D during "the great shortage" because they had the cheapest price at 39.99 and brought it to the gun show so it saved me shipping cost.

    My money goes to who ever has the lowest price because in my opinion they have the most sustainable business, this year, their ammo at the gun show was a bit high. I walked away with nothing. They did have fair prices on firearms tho, impressed with that for a gun show.

    I agree that the retail law being the trump card in this interaction means the OP should have gotten the discount. More so if the deal went the way the OP claims with someone trying to go to bat for him at the store. Is it enough to write off a business... maybe not to me but I would certainly not place them on my first go to list. The attitude of the store manager is appalling whether the OP was a one time purchaser or a life long.

    I am stunned at the number of people who are trying to defend Chris' actions in this situation. You act as if this is somehow acceptable. Apparently you don't have much respect for yourselves.
    IF (if if if IF) what the OP says is true (we've only heard one side of this story thus far), then I fully agree that the lower sticker price should have been honoured. That's not my beef. My beef is with the social media soap box public shaming attempt to get "revenge" on the business by scaring away other potential gun nutz.

    The op wasn't ripped off. He willingly handed over the extra 11 dollars. If it was a big enough deal to start a siht on p&d thread, then it was a big enough deal to say to the cashier "Sorry ma'am, I won't pay the higher price on principle, so I'm just going to leave these rings on the counter and walk away." The choice was his.

    A more "adult" response would have been to simply call or write a letter to the owner expressing his dismay, and highlighting the potential loss of future business. Because $11 buys a pretty sihty lynch mob.
    The Bee does not squander his time trying to explain to the Fly why honey is better than s**t. Each creature is content with the meal laid before them, so the Bee reserves his endeavor for those who know its worth.

    You call someone a moron and then say It's about respect. You, sir, are a hypocrite

    True. Just take it easy. Some of them are probably representing the store discreetly trying to discredit OP. It is a possibility. We can't rule that out at all

    There is a law/scanning code of practice that defends the OP's situation.
    Lots of reading and many here do not bother if they see more than a few lines of script but here is what my google-fu found

    when guns are outlawed we become subjects.

    Non-compliance, 'cause bad laws are worse than no laws.
