    Who cares?

    OP, I think this old BMW ad fits your situation:

    Correct me if I am wrong but all my firearms have the serial number/model etc on the side of the box - you need to take a looky inside

    If they don’t care about losing him as a customer, why would they concern themselves with his patronage, in turn destroying their livelihood?

    You imply the retailer is too busy to concern themselves with him - he’s so “entitled” after all!

    No doubt that’s true in many circumstances. Some retailers don’t care.

    I’d propose something different; Maybe they do care! Maybe they want to fix this.

    While you suggest they (the retailer) doesn't care about it, and that they shouldn’t. I suggest they do.
    If I wanted to debate semantics, I would join a book club or take an English class. My post was about principle, not anticipating that someone with a dictionary and thesaurus was going pick it all apart. Each to their own I suppose, but I am sorry that I took you away from your literary homework.

    OK fellas. I didn't want to stir up a hornets nest.

    The gun is fine, but I did ask for something specific which was promised but ignored.

    Will I do business with Wanstall's again ? of course I will.

    Do I want any special considerations because of this issue ? (discounts etc) No, absolutely not. Everyone has to pay their own bills and I am quite happy paying retail price.

    Perhaps if the invoice had not promised a next day delivery, and I hadn't stayed in all day, and half the next, and if the gun had been as supplied by Ruger - in bag with chamber flag, as I specifically asked for (or at least implied), I may not have been so p*ssed.

    Anyway, storm in a tea cup, all is well with the world, the sun is shining and the sky is blue. My 'Strike Fire' is mounted and I'm off to my son's 10 acre property to bust some water jugs.

    Life is good.

    (But thanks for the above support, and 'flamers' comments also appreciated.)

    Jeffman - stop trying to sound like your the smartest guy in the room. No one cares what your IQ is.

    Why do people care so much about packaging? You should have kept the white film that was on your brand new car when they PDI it.
    I would rather take a WORKING gun that is on display than a brand new untouched gun that doesn't work.

    This is funny because some people complaint the packaging was tempted with, some complaint that they don't look over the gun before sending it out. Doubled sided sword IMO.
