Recently I purchased a "new" Sig 226 from Wild West shooting centre in West Edmonton Mall...... when i Received the forearm it had visible wear to the finish... when I contacted Wild west about this i was then told the item had been a Floor gun (and for them floor means floor they have the guns sitting on little shelves where anyone can handle them) HAVING TO CONTACT AND PRY IT OUT OF THE MANAGE/OWNER to find out the firearm was a floor gun. I was neither told nor offered any discount prior to buying/ shipping.... and after bringing the issue to the management I was offered no compensation, it has been about a week of prying any contact from them and I am still being offered nothing and basically have been told I will pay the shipping back to them and then waiting (up to 6 months) for a new pistol.... Any other dealer would have told me about the condition and offered me a discount or if they had not noticed a percentage refund or item discount...... I post this as a warning not to do online (or any) business with Wild West shooting centre..... one owner/Manager is named Flora Kupsch.... Just a warning this business is no trust worthy or reputable in any way....
 
Wear is worn and scuffed finish, chips to the muzzle and beavertail...... I will say nothing massive but enough to constitute a 25% discount from any other dealer I've dealt with.

How much "wear" are we talking about here?

Does it relay matter how much . If it was sold as NIB that is the condition it arrived in . I'd be more concerned about the idiots that handled like a bunch of Gangsta's and if it was dropped, abused etc ..

Again ,new is new and if it isn't new it isn't . I guess it is like being a LITTLE BIT pregnant ,you either are or your not
 
Until I see some pictures of said condition of visible wear and damage its just a whiny OP who has buyers regret. If your making claims your being defrauded and screwed by a sponsor here, please provide some proof. With your tiny ass post count and 0 trader rating you have as much credibility as a politician who's lips are moving.

Wild West shooting center is a sponsor here? I dont see a forum or banner. Or is Calgary shooting Center the same business?
 
I live five minutes from west ed mall and know how they operate. They are catering to tourists and people who play to much call of duty! And have no clue of standard prices/practices. The only reason I walk in there is because they are open late

They told him it was a floor model, after he bought it expecting it to be BNIB. Even if the gun was mint that's still shady as hell.
