Description
From Budsgunshop email: Since 2003, we have been bringing the best deals on firearms and accessories to our customers nationwide. Those deals have allowed us to grow from customer # 1 back in 2003 to an incredible 587,850 customers as of this email ! With that many people, you might imagine the number of requests, suggestions and (let's just be honest) complaints we get daily. We continue to do our very best to consider them all.
Although we take great pride in our customer satisfaction ratings, which includes a Better Business Bureau (BBB) highest possible rating of A+, we also understand that there are many customers who would prefer an even higher level of service. We had previously resisted over upgrading our services in favor of keeping our prices low...as that seems to be what the majority of our customers prefer. However, we have now decided to offer BOTH great prices and an optional premium customer service package for those who desire that highest level of service.
We have listened closely to our +half million customers and wrapped all of their most popular requests, suggestions and even complaints into one neat package....we call it the BUDS VIP !
For as little as $19.95/year, here's what you'll get as a BUDS VIP !
1. Minimum 72 hour advance purchase opportunity on ALL hard to get guns, ALL used guns, and any other special offers. YOU always get the "first shot" !
2. 30 Day Price Protection on all new firearms*
2. Same Day shipping on select guns**
3. FREE classifieds listings on our website ! Advertise your items for sale on a website with over 72,000 views per with absolutely no listing or selling fees. ***
4. A 1-888-Toll-Free number for BUDS VIP members only
5. An expedited email option for BUDS VIP members only
6. Even more benefits to be announced soon....
*applies only to advertised price changes on www.budsgunshop.com...
**order must be placed by 2 PM EST. Requires credit card payment and shipment to one of our Preferred FFL dealers
*** we are limiting each customer to only one classified listing per month to avoid excessive dealer listings in the classifieds section
To give you some specific examples of BUDS VIP items....we launched the VIP program earlier today with a 72 hour advance purchase opportunity on a used lot of S&W Model 10 Police Trade-in revolvers for only $269 DELIVERED ! These guns are trade-ins from the same department as the Model 10's we offered just two weeks ago, and nearly 200 of those guns sold out in less than 24 hours ! We had customers calling and emailing offering us $50 more than our advertised price for the guns ! Unfortunately, it was too late, they were already gone. Click on the photo below to see the both versions of the Model 10 we currently have available for BUDS VIP members only !
Annual Cost (without annual auto renewal): $24.95
Annual Cost (with annual auto renewal): $19.95

WOW IVE ONLY BEEN WAITING SINCE MARCH ..!!!! for a order , and now they want ME to become a V.I.P And give another 20 dollars !! ( nice !!!)
Since the price of the VIP is pretty low, everyone will sign up in order to buy something "hot", and at the end no one will benefit other than Buds. Another way to take our money, 3% up-charge isn't enough anymore. I'll pass and shop elsewhere.
