Cabela's

I went to Cabela’s to get a cover for my bbq. They were on sale and of course they didn’t have it in stock. So I pre ordered it and had it shipped to the store. While I was there I stopped by the used gun department. I like seeing the old historical ones. Well this visit one stood out like crazy and it pulled on my heart strings. It was a SAA commemorative colt. My dad was 6th fastest draw in the US and this gun was similar to his including the white grips. It was in the same caliber and specs. They had it for 3500. I went home and researched the heck out of this gun. BUT I screwed up and didn’t get the model number. I also let my heart get in the way of sanity. So I went back and asked 1000 questions. Why was it in the wrong box? Why did it have white grips? Is this part of the combo with the Winchester rifle set. Where did you come up with this price? They had an answer to it all. But my heart was listening not my brain. I let them lie to me. The white grips were not original. This model came with walnut grips. They told me the grips were ivory, they’re resin. That this gun wasn’t the commemorative model that was supposed to come with a Winchester rifle. That the box it was in was given to Cabela’s with the gun so they displayed it in an incorrect box. They said they had a gun historian they call for guns like this and he set the price. They gave me a first responders discount. Plus another discount that brought it down to 3100. I sat on a gun like this before. I didn’t buy it because I wanted to research and someone else bought it while I was researching. I was worried the same would happen again. My heart was completely in the way. I contacted customer service and they had the store contact me. All used gun sales are final. They don’t care that they lied. They got lied to by the original owner so they lied to me. They wanted to argue and not accept the fact the grips were cheap resin. They told me the grips were ivory which was fraud. They also argued it was not the set. That this one was sold separately. (Lie) had it been the set the price would have been perfect. But alone the gun is valued at 1200 with the correct grips. I will NEVER shop at Cabela’s again. I don’t do business with liars .

Common item, out of stock again. Can't use my Cabela's cash again. Good thing there is a Fleet Farm nearby that is as good or better.
