Where do these people come from? This email from this morning is just classic.
"I'm interested in getting your lazer grips for my Kimber custom TLE II. Is there a gun dealer in Jacksonville, Fl. that carries your grips in stock. I would like to look, feel, touch and admire them on my Kimber II pistol, before I spend my hard earn money.
I would be happy to except a free set and be glad to show them off at the gun shows and shooting ranges and gun dealers and to my friends.
Maybe they will purchase them your e-mail site if you forward your business cards as well.
I have a feeling all I'm going to get is the dealer information from you, but that alright. I may buy them when I can see,feel and uses them. After all that was how I selected my Kimber II."
He'd be happy to "except" a free set. I'm sure that Crimson Trace would bend over backwards to get this sort of promotion.
$1 says he's a Democrat. ;)
-
You mean to tell me that you don't personally make those grips? Nor do you give away them away so people can try them, an possible sell them for you? I am shocked!
Scary part is, his vote counts the same as yours....LOL
-
Well, he didn't ask you to ship him the grips already on a Kimber.

Email him back. Tell him that had he chosen to "accept" the grips you might have been able to help him to get a free set.
-
Tell him you'll be glad to send him the grips if he'll send you a non-refundable deposit of $(grip price plus shipping).

I say send him an email back telling him that there is a 20% moron tax.

I take it your google prominence is resolved?

If Monkeyleg is willing to bet $1 he's a Democrat I'll bet $5 this knucklehead is still using AltaVista. :)
-
$1 that he is really shrewd, or an absolute moron. The writing capability indicates the latter.

No, it's not for me or for millions of other site owners.
I think I just attract morons. They don't need a search engine, they find me by smell or something.
-
To emit a moron smell, wouldn't one have to actually be a.....um......never mind.

Guess that's expected when you build a business model on top of the whims of another independent, private corporation.

The business model wasn't built upon their whims. It was built around paid ads as well as organic search. I'm afraid I can't alter the fact that Google has 70%+ of the search engine market, nor that a higher percentage of conversions (sales) come from Google than from Bing, Yahoo or even from paid ads.
-
Look, just tell me where I can touch, see, feel and admire a pair of those grips, OK? There's no needs to accpose me to ridicule. =(
-
Send him a pair of moccasins instead...... =D
-
Moron phermones? ???
. . . that travel over the Internet.
-
Go ahead, box 'em up and send him a set,.......
COD! ;)
-
Send him an empty box and when he writes to complain, tell him that they are at his local dealer. You could probably string this guy along for a while.....
Make sure the moccasins are extra small....
-
"...lazer grips...
Frikkin' laser beams!

Am I the only one who remembers the scratch-n-sniff Web of the future?

I vote moron.
If you vote for morons, you're probably a democrat too.

Grammar and syntax resembles that in my last email from Nigeria . . .
(You have lazer grips? Cool . . . can I vaporize a bad guy with them?)

Brad
That's "pheromones"
Or, in this case, it may be "pheromorons"

OK, this one has to be an APS member playing a joke.
For reasons too boring to get into, I'm inviting visitors to leave reviews of some guns on my site. I screen them and if they seem legit, I add them to the page about the gun. Today I received this for the page for the Springfield Armory SOCOM 16:

With all the articals that I have read on the M1A I would have to rate it a four star. The reason for that is that, I have never Handled, nor fired the weapon. I am very interested in buying one on a monthly purchase plan if I could find a business that would provide me with this opprotunity. I would love to be able to write a review on this weapon.

Hey, cool, that's mine. You post it?

Sounds like a lead-in to one of those Nigerian scams. If you respond, he may offer to send you a check for ten times the cost of the gun if you'll cash it and send him the difference.
Tell him you have a lay-away plan. He can send you $xx per month until the full price has been paid, at which time you expect to receive his FFL's information for shipping the firearm.
