EngrBob Posted May 20, 2017 Report Share Posted May 20, 2017 The one in El Paso, only open for about a year, is only discounting shooting supplies by 10% to 15%, or about what everyone else charges. I was not impressed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Armed Eye Doc Posted July 10, 2017 Author Report Share Posted July 10, 2017 I went to one in Arlington, TX yesterday. They were up to 60% off with guns at 20-25% off. I saw several items that were obviously marked up before the discount was applied. One example: A Ruger SR1911 commander "regular price" $999; 20% discount made it $799. Example 2: They had this black powder rifle for $499 marked down 40% to $299. It was still more than Cabelas. There were others as well. I only bought some batteries and a pair of pants.

survivalshop Posted July 10, 2017 Report Share Posted July 10, 2017 They will still fool someone & they will think they got a deal . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
forty_caliber Posted July 10, 2017 Report Share Posted July 10, 2017 I'm not sorry to see them go. Not only were the prices excessive, but they also carry a poor reputation for their services in the archery community. I've often seen signs in bow pro shops charging more to fix bows if GM worked on them or they were purchased there. Sad to see fellow archers with a new setup that can't understand why they keep missing. .40 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True ,GM sucks ,I won't miss their pricing either . I purchased very few things there , small things & thats too bad because they are close & do have a large selection & they may possibly screw more up on a Tune or assembly , but thats no reason to change more . I have also seen a archer's with new gear miss a lot, but it wasn't the Archery equipment Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Armed Eye Doc Posted August 7, 2017 Author Report Share Posted August 7, 2017 Be careful of how much they mark them up before they take the discount. Much of what I saw was close to retail price after 25% off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I asume employees like that are part of the reason they are closing. If it were my store I'da fired em long before they could fugg up like that.

The ones left work for the liquidation company from what I've heard and seeing the store closes in a week or two their idgf attitude is really shining thru. Honestly the prices I saw from were I was standing I could probably go to the gun pusher and not pay much over it, support a local business and be treated like a human,but if I could take advantage of their disadvantage I woulda Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
