I drove to Blythe's Griffith yesterday. I've never been there before; I usually just to to the Valpo Blythe's because they have a range and Griffith doesn't.
I walked in and a guy asked what I wanted. I told him I wanted a youth 20 ga or a small bolt-action rifle, new or used, to plink around with at Winamac. Told him that I would prefer to spend around $300 and that the only gun outside the $300 that I might be interested in was a Rossi Circuit Judge. He said they didn't have a Circuit Judge. Out of the hundreds of long guns they had, he could only seem to find me two guns, and one of them was well over my price limit. Then he walked over to the case and started pulling out revolvers and SA pistols even though I said I had three and didn't want any more. When I wasn't interested in the handguns, he simply walked away and started talking to the other employees. I wandered around the store looking at long guns while he chatted with his co-workers. I found a Rossi Circuit Judge and tried to show it to him, but by then he was deep into his phone conversation. He finally saw me holding it and said "I didn't know we had that" and then went back to talking on the phone.
How does this store even stay open? Apparently they are paying employees to talk to each other instead of helping customers. Several people I've talked to have had the same experience of being ignored, even when the store is empty.
