    Another Turners Rant

    Just stopped by Turners (Corona) to buy some of that Blazer Brass ammo that is on the ad (350 for $79.98) Good price I thought, Really Great price IF you NEVER had any and Refuse to give rain checks on ad items.. AD items you Never even had, that is a Good Price leader to get people into the store...

    I was gonna question this Manger with Corporate BUT IF they have quit answering this sub forum they really don't Care to hear from Calguns people..

    THANKS, I Needed that!! Rant Over.......

    The sale started yesterday. I'm sure people who wanted the deal went in yesterday morning and cleaned them out.

    I don't know why you think they never had it. I've seen it at other locations.

    Going to be nearly 25 cpr with tax, so it wasn't that great a deal anyways.

        sometime businesses use ads as "lost leaders", meaning having only 1 or two items at that price or very limited qualities on hand. however, the best way to capture that deal is show up to the store when it opens on the date the ad starts. Its the only way to guaranty to get one.

        Turner's ads comes out Thursday but starts on first open on Friday, but you went on Saturday. Too late already!

                Bait and switch is alive and well. Usually i associate that with car dealerships.

                    Turners is a waste of time. It's full of people who don't know much about firearms working behind the counter and customer who no nothing about firearms and expect the employees to give them a full Rundown on laws calibers barrel length ballistics targets and fantasy Home Defense situations

                      Turners is Junk, especially the Corona store. I always go to Ammo Bros.

                        The problem is the people you dealt with are just lazy. Any of the stores can look up the inventory of other stores, if they see the item you are looking for at a different store then they can call to verify it's there, then have it transferred in. Might take a couple weeks to get what you want, but you get it at the sale price. Problem is it takes extra effort to look it up and make the call.

                          turners is the store I go to for convenience, that being said you pay extra for the convenience. I never go to turners expecting to find a deal and neither should you. that makes it all the more special when you do get a good deal.

                          that being said why don't you just buy online

                            Turners doesn't allow managers to give rain checks. they normally have the quantity on hand but one guy comes when they open and wipes them out. people ***** so much about turners but do not use common sense or critical thinking skills before opening their mouths. most of the yelp reviews ive read about turners are from impatient arrogant people who do not understand how a company works let along a gun retailer. im sorry you had to wait 30 minutes to pick your gun up like everyone else. get over it.

                              I have gone in a few times and have seen 2 or 3 boxes left on the shelf so I will take them all, and deal with the mean looks from people as I walk to the counter. With a store like the corona store with one small small center rack with 1/2 shotgun ammo and the other 1/2 the "other calibers" it would not be your ideal spot to go shop for ammo.
