hi folks,


I am not frustrated because of high prices or poor quality products--but by dishonest business practices. When you waste a couple of long visits doing the paperwork (and retreiving the regulations FOR the sellers) then the bastard sells the item before you return to pick it up, that is crap. The jerk said store policy is to hold items for only 24 hours but that I did not return in time. Unfortunately this guy had some trouble in school--I was there Friday evening and he sold it Saturday afternoon.


Because this CZ was in the shop for at least a couple of weeks with no one interested and it went into the back vault as I left on Friday evening, I suspect the liar bought it himself or talked a buddy into it. Before I requested buying it, he did not know what it was but he is a WW2 buff (just not very bright).


The CZ27 was early hi-polish blue in about 80% finish. It had a chipped grip and was missing a grip screw. The magazine was damaged at the top but was functional (except the slide would not stay back on an empty magazine. I wanted to buy it to get the magazine for completing a rig. I have a couple of CZ27s in great condition. The price on this store's CZ27 was only $75 plus 6% tax. That is a good price for a shooter CZ27.


Maybe the best thing to do is write a letter to the mgt of this chain (Cash America--on S. Academy in Colo Springs Colorado) and note that such unethical bus behavior is not forgotten. This stuff happens but this incident grates me because the mgr was so blatently unashamedly dishonest and I put in extra time helping out the store employees on the sale.


Thanks for the notes, guys.
