Trigger63, Frank, and Ed,

Thanks for the replies. I had some dealings with DFK when I first started to collect Lugers. Part of my tuition at Luger U. I can't say he was dishonest in his dealings with me, but I feel I paid through the nose for the parts and reference books I bought from him. Over a couple of years I spent 3-4K with him, and when I wanted to return a $35 item because it wouldn't function, he told me it had been too long and he couldn't give a refund on it. Admittedly it had been 6 months because I didn't get around to sending it back. I had notified him of the problem when I received the part but didn't get around to sending it when I should have. I sent it back when I did because I had bought another $700-$800 worth of stuff (that's a story itself, I'll tell it over a beer sometime) and was sending him a gun for evaluation. He sent me a very nasty note when he returned my gun telling me he wouldn't refund money on a deal that old. He acted like I was trying to cheat him for $35 after I had spent over $3,000 with him. I decided then not to deal with him any more. He certainly didn't value me as a customer and I had spent some fairly respectable money with him.

I also thought these adds sounded a lot like the same guy but wanted to see if anyone had dealt with "Ian Campbell" and had a track record on him. Frank I think yours is good advice and I will stay clear of him as well.

Thanks,

Bob M.
