So,
I inquired about why the photos of a G1 stock set on **** (made by boyd's) and being sold by Haus of Arms were "generic". I also requested some actual photos of the walnut stock set that I would be bidding on.
Here is the commentary.................**** poor treatment of prospective customers. As the owner suggests..........I'll take my business elsewhere.

Dear hausofarms-tc4me,
All I asked for was an actual photo of the stock set you have for sale. Not too much to ask for any reasonable business man. However, you don't fit that description. Enjoy your vacation..................

Dear 6mmsweasil,
Take your business elsewhere that is fine with me. I always take time for my customers when their requests are reasonable. In my opinion yours is not. I'm on vacation this week with family. My "inventory" is wrapped and boxed with hardware and ready to ship. My assistant has his hands full keeping up with orders for other customers. Asking me to interrupt my vacation, ask my assistant to drop what he is doing to take an hour to unwrap then repackage all so you can shop the grain of my walnut is unreasonable and yes is not worth the $20 profit I would make IF you decided to buy. So in this case enjoy your shopping experience elsewhere. Marty

Dear hausofarms-tc4me,
OK Marty,
You don't have time for a prospective customer......................I'll take my business elsewhere.
That's funny though..............it would take all of about 10 minutes to "unwrap" your inventory, take a few pictures, email them to me and make a sale. I guess your time is worth more than my money.
Take care,
Austin

Dear 6mmsweasil,
Sorry Austin but I don't have the time to unwrap and unbox my inventory to take pictures for you to select from. The pictures I use are "generic" stock photos of the actual stocksets I have taken and they are representative of the sets I sell. I have never had anyone complain that they weren't. As far as price goes however, I sell a ton of these sets for this price and from experience if you want to select an extra nice grain you'll pay twice that much. Have a great day. Marty

Dear hausofarms-tc4me,
I notice that you have the same pictures (generic apparently), for this G1 walnut stock set and another auction you have for a G2 stock set in walnut.
If I'm going to be paying this kind of money for a stock set...............I want to see the actual stock and forend that I will be receiving.
Can you give me pictures of the actual stock set that I would be bidding on here??
I am only interested in a set that has nice figure.........................thanks in advance.

I have dealt with Marty several times before and have always been pleased. And I think the way he handles the photos is perfectly fine. I see absolutely no problem with it. After all, you are not talking about a one-of-a-kind stock blank here. These are mass-produced items sold in rather large volumes. You must also consider that the requested photos would not help you much anyway. Unless someone goes to the expense of highly-controlled, studio lighting and provides you the original on a screen calibrated to their cameras/lenses, I doubt you could even tell the difference between stock A and stock B simply because the low-resolution, compressed image on a generic monitor (or phone) won't accurately render the grain of the stock in question anyway. Also, you inaccurately represent that Marty told you to take your business elsewhere when in fact he was just parroting your exact quote: "I'll take my business elsewhere." His entire original reply to you was civil and polite and explained why he does things this way. You were the one who brought an aggressive tone to the table. Just my two cents on the matter... Anyway, it seems your attempted trashing of Haus of Arms isn't going the way you intended -- on ANY of the forums. You may find the link below interesting, where NO ONE agreed with you. http://specialtypistols.infopop.cc/eve/forums/a/tpc/f/2511028302/m/5360001976

When you order from Cabelas or BPS on-line do you ask them to pull out the actual item to take a picture of?

Haus is a great vendor!

I was going to take the low road and make fun of the OP's screen name but I knew if I waited someone would do it for me.
Thanks!
