[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 1227373, member: 2736"] I know this won't help, but in my opinion any profession/business can have this problem if the owner does not have the knowledge, compassion and skill plus the business sense of how to deal with customers. Being a good smith does not make you a good businessman, and being a good businessman does not make you a good smith. most successful gun smiths have all of these skills. Reading a customers wants and needs is just one of the things a Gunsmith should be good at because some customers can be as difficult as some smiths to deal with. I agree that your experiences have been bad 50% of the time and understand your frustration. most of us have been burned once or twice and have learned to ask as many questions as possible to hopefully prevent this from happening again. No profession is free of unscrupulous people that will screw you if they get a chance, so be careful and if you find a good one stick with him and build a rapport with him. Don't worry, Venting is good sometimes. J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
