Bear's Archery & Gun Shop

This individual brought his bow into my shop to have his string and cable set replaced.  This is something I have done to literally hundreds of bows over the 23 years I have been in business.  When he asked me how much the strings would cost I told him they would cost $169.00 and I would...

install them on his bow for him and the installation was included in that price.  I then asked him if he wanted me to do further work such as setting up the string and tuning the bow which is necessary when the string sets are replaced.  He said yes and then told me he wantd to add new arrow rest insert for the whisker buiscuit on the bow.  As he told me the things he wanted me to do, I was filling out the work order and writing the things he wanted me to do and listing the price for each of the items and the service.  When I got finished listing the things he wanted done, the invoice came out to an amount around $350.00 dollars.  This individual is dilusional if he thinks people work for free and his claim that I told him I would do additional wdork and replace worn out parts on his bow for no extra cost is absolutely false.  He watched me fill out the work order and when he came to pick up his bow, I gave him a copy of the work order along with his receipt which he paid and said nothing about the charges. I would also challenge this individual on his claim that he could get all the work I did on his bow elsewhere with the quality of work and parts for a mere $120.00.  I've been working on compund bows for over 40 years and I know better.  BUT, here's what I am willing to do for this person.  If he will bring his bow back inbto my shop, I will undo the work I have done and remove all the new parts I placed on his bow and refund him the difference between what he paid and the mere $169.00 for the strings and installation.
