Pat, there is a 30 day money back guarantee on that gun. Return for any reason. Buy it, bring it to a competent sxs smith and have it assessed. If it's crap you will be out the cost of freight and the inspection. You will also find out how much it will be to make it right. If yoy don't know who to take it to, I may be able to help.
From the seller's website:
For that reason, if you receive an item, and if for any reason you are not satisfied with your purchase, we offer you a 30 days to return for a refund. (All shipping fees are covered by the custumer).
You should also know that, after taking into account FX, the vintage SxS market in Canada is somewhat depressed when compared to the US. In equivalent dollars, we are typically 25 to 35% less. Smaller less vibrant market and the headaches of moving guns across the border means there is no arbitrage that balances pricing out.
It's great to buy in Canada if you can find what you want.....its sucks to sell. Checking out GI and GB for price comparisons doesn't work well.
