Weird Policy

It's impressive how many people in this thread have clearly never worked in retail. Probably the same folks who would demand an open box discount if something was opened to take photos for the last guy.

Anybody reading through this thread would clearly see what my point was, you are nitpicking because you are a faint minority that sympathizes with OPs claim, and that's just observers bias. Times have changed, procedures have changed, Quality control has changed, and life carries on. Almost all new guns in the store are identical, with nothing wrong in them even if you'll pick one that seems to be the nicest to your personal eye. Who knows, the one you pick might be hideous to me, but that's the beauty of personal opinions, you don't have to respect mine.

You think OPs complaints are justified, because you want to do the same thing, even though a lot (majority) of us agree they are not, unless OP is paying for the service.
Its typical boomer mentality, and I know this conversation wont go anywhere.

Have a good day.

Are you reading through this thread? Not once did I say OP was justified. In fact I specifically said "I wouldn't be willing to bust open 10 boxes on the POSSIBILITY of making a sale" and "I get not having time to pull a bunch of boxes and take photos for some tire kicker online".

I DID say the dealers excuse was stupid, and I stand by that.
