Shafted by a BT dealer
I'm not one to complain usually , but my blood pressure is through the roof.
I'm a LH shooter. As such I can NEVER find a bow to try out. So I rely on what I read here, and I value the reviews I read here.
So I wanted a '07 Allegiance. I bought one from a Bowtech dealer in Taylorsville,N.C.on e-bay. ( I figured I was safe buying from a dealer)
He advertisied an '07 Ally shop demo. Cool ,--I'm in.
The bow arrived today. IT'S A BLASTED '06.
I ran the ser# w/ Bowtech to make sure.
So I call the OWNER. He tells me I bought a "custom '07 Ally".
WHAT????
There's NOTHING '07 about this bow. No new riser w/ a groove. No 2 piece grip. '06 cams and limb sticker. What's '07 about it.
He then said to me "no return or refund" , "this conversation is over".
The dealer is Lyndon's Riverview Sports. If I'm breaking a rule saying that Mods ,go ahead and delete it. I had to vent.

Contact Ebay as well, and if you paid by Paypal, contact them. Thats false advertising, and it is not the item you paid for. First contact Bowtech and get all the facts about the bow, have them fax or email you all the info on the bow; and contact Ebay and or Paypal from there; someway, you will get it fixed!

I filed a complaint with Pay-pal. Bowtech is next.
Jeff,
If I hadn't paid w/ pay-pal , I would enlist your help. Thank You for the offer. I'll let you know if it becomes necessary.
