    I never trust anyone saying they have something in stock, i usually ask them to physically check for it first

    I had a similar experiance with Epps a year or two ago. I called and asked if they had any bulk/surplus 7.62x39 and the gentleman over the phone said they did. After a long drive, no luck. I've been in there a few times since then, and the only time I have had good service was from a younger fellow in his early 20s working the gun counter.

    The next MARSTAR

    Same scenario happened to me on more than one occasion until I clued in.

    They are likely trained by management to tell customers the item is in stock, hoping that when you arrive you will buy somthing else.

    S h i t t y sales tactic

    Yep!
    Me and my buddy won't do business with epps anymore
    Reasons are numerous and very similar to some of the postings here
    As and example, I received 45 mags from them with rust on them.
    Rust was not mentioned in the description!

    Just complaining.. - Cant say I shop at the location because I'm in Alberta, but their website just annoys me - I mean there's a pretty basic standard for good online websites nowadays and you either know you have a good one, or you don't, Prophet River is another I struggle with. - These guys could learn a lot from the SFRC, Bullseye Sports or Al Flaherty's, I purchase from these places ALL THE TIME because it's just so convenient. - easily searchable, easily browse-able, and pictures for everything. You gotta imagine that the amount of money you pay for an Online web host to maintain the site and update inventory, will pay the wages back in online sales in no time? Either way it tells me 'old school' management who has probably done well and isn't into fresh or new ideas, most likely getting an online website 'was' a fresh new idea. - Two cents
