    Angry Can't get dealer to call me back!

    I've called my local dealer twice and left a message. It looks like they do the business on the side as they are only open from 5:30pm to 9:30pm on weekdays and 11:00am to 6:00pm on Saturdays. I have called them twice and left a message telling them what I was looking for, gave them my name, phone number , etc... and so far NOTHING!

    Guess they don't want to sell a GTO too badly.

    There is another Elite dealer around but they are about 60 miles from me.

    Do you really consider 60 miles a long drive? I regulary drive that far to take my wife out to eat or go shopping. The nearest competent BowTech dealer is 125 miles away and I bought a Black Knight from him in 03, and a Defender from him in Dec 04. Take a nice leisurely drive and go see him. He may turn out to be your new best friend.

    I'd make the 60 mile trip. If you buy a bow from the guy you are trying to get in contact with and need any kind of service you could be in the same boat.
    Just my thoughts,

    Oregonbowhunter,
    Unless you know me and know the kind of service I give, please keep you coments to your self. I strive to give the best customer service I can give. I will not let my customer leave unhappy. There are a few people on her that have delt with me and can tell you the kind of service I give.
    Reread my post I was making an observation not stating a fact. I never said that is how it would be I said it could be. I don't know you or your service and I was not personally attacking you. My statement was made from my own personal experience (not with you) so if I offended you I appologize.

    No problem OBH, I took it the wrong way. That is why I deleted the post, but I guess I was not fast enough.

    Glad you got that settled. But I drove over 200 miles to get my envy and that was not to a competant dealer............just a dealer.

    Yes I do. Call me crazy.....If Elite wants to play with the big boys, they need to step up with their dealership program. I'm not suggesting they have a dealer on every corner like Mathews does but in a market as large as the DFW area, there should be no reason to drive that far.

    I also don't want to have to drive 60 miles if I ever have to have work done either.

    Mike

    Thank you Wes. But really no need to call me since you do not have a GTO in stock. I am wanting to shoot a 30"/60# model to either prove or disprove the rumors of a rough draw cycle at 30" .

    I'll PM you my phone number so you can call me when you get one in.

    60 miles is a walk in the park around here.
