Already have......wont ship to MASS either.  Also...a bit of bait and switch as well.  Tried to buy a LEE FCD for 35whelen.  The price was under $20 and I ordered one.  The invoice said $36.  I called and was told that the low price was for stock reduction and when they got to the desired level the price went back up.  OK....EXCEPT...the website had the lower price and I ordered the die for the price listed.  No go...even spoke to Larry himself and told him that he needed to honor the posted price on the web and that it could be construed as Bait and Switch.  He disagreed and I told told him that it reflected badly on his company....he told me that he was sorry and that eventually He'd earn my business back again......Uh.....no.

I'm surprised any of the online retailers will ship you guys anything firearm related.  In the current environment I would think they don't need the revenue from the anti-gun states, so why put up with the hassle?

True...but sometimes the on-line guys have things that are hard to get from a local shop.

drdougrx , they did that to me over a decade
ago on a scope, and they haven't earned
anything back from me yet.
bait and switch is what it is no matter
who does it. a big shame after all the money
i'd spent with them, and i'll wager you've
spent your own pile too.

You would think that a Deadbeat Retailer like Potterfield would honor the price for those that called to complain and take to the bank those that failed to complain, or, we could HOPE that Potterfield was a decent sort of fellow and after hearing his web site had bad dope on it, would honor the reduced price AND get someone to FIX IT.
