Crowder can be a real PITA to deal with depending on the day you walk in...for example, I was shopping gun safes one day a few years back and was looking at the ones in his store. He and another guy were wheeling one out on a dolly about that time....he opens the front door, and hollers back in the shop "WHO HAS THIS NISSAN PICKUP PARKED RIGHT IN THE WAY HERE ??" kinda mad like.
I didn't say anything.....walked out the door, got in my Nissan pickup, which was parked in a lined off parking spot MARKED FOR PARKING, not loading, not handicapped, not stripped to indicate NO PARKING, and I just happened to park there....and drove on up the street to Widener's and bought a gun safe.
Other times I've been in there, bought a gun or accessory, and done just fine.
Wish I'd seen the note about his shenanigans with deposits, as I put a $100 deposit on a Glock the other day, and now that has me wondering. He even groused about that amount ( on a 500 buck pistol ) wanting half down......"we have to pay for them upfront"......I told him this was a spur of the moment purchase ( I was wanting a 26 for ankle carry ) and I only had 100 bucks on me.....then I asked how much deposit he got on all the guns he had on display.....how much were THEY costing him to sit there looking pretty ?? Heck, if I NEVER come back, it isn't like he won't sell that pistol to somebody else, just like the ones he has on display, AND MAKE AN EXTRA HUNDRED ON THE DEAL !
I know dealing with the public can be a trying experience....but honestly, it's like the guy is out to run business off.
