Well, since I don't 'usually' get delayed, I probably didn't say that to anyone.How many parties to this transaction did you tell you usually get delayed?
Over the past couple years I've gotten a proceed in minutes, an hour, been delayed but gotten a proceed within a day or so and also used the three day pass. So all over the map and seems pretty random...
Delays in general seem par for the course more than 'usual' these days so I guess I assume my chances are somewhat skewed in that direction so maybe projected a bit of pessimism?
Curious what point you're getting at here...?
And when you asked them what would happen if you didn't sign, they said ...?
As more or less said in my first post, I didn't ask (or refuse) and in retrospect wished I did. My suspicion is that they would have stuck with their policy either way.
I don't really hold it against them for having said policy, I just wish I'd been told up front and would have gone elsewhere.
I actually like the shop, they have the best selection/stock in the area and contrary to what I've heard, me being from MA has never been any sort of issue there. They seem happy to let me fondle the handguns even knowing I'm over the border and they currently aren't doing sales/transfers to Ma. originally 'cause covid, now who knows...
