I like PA, AOA and Midway too, just tired of their shell games and bs. AOA advertised my PBBA with a barrel insert and then said it didn't come with one. I held them to it and they obliged. Midway raised prices 30% and then sent me a 25% off coupon. Pyramyd sells the Blitz .30 for $100 more than Sportsman's Guide sells it to non-members. They need the extra $100 so they can give you bulls eye bucks and offer you a 10% discount with free shipping on a gun that might be a used return. That way you think it's a really great deal to get screwed by them. Please just offer me a new un-used product at a competitive price with free shipping and skip all the games.
That said I still shop with these vendors but I spend a lot of time sorting out their games and holding their feet to the fire. If their price and service are the best available then I'll buy from them. Don't even get me started on the junk Airgun Depot sells. Never got a working gun from them, not once. If I'm going to bust my rump to avoid getting screwed from known sources I'll do the work it takes to find new ones to replace them.
