they might as well say no 15 dollar coverage charge with this here coupon ....what a JOKE...
i finally got my PAIR of EXTRA large ice fishin gloves
from BASS pro ok.... and they were also a JOKE
(because they're made in china)
(they have small hands and narrow feet)
my fingers bottomed out to the point they were totally USELESS
and i gave them to my wife to USE
if she has to clean snow off her car...
Lesson Learned... i try em on before i buy from now ON
the other thing that sucked was they were not sewed just glued  |

Everything at West Marine can be purchased for at least 20% less elsewhere anyway. They are overpriced on everything.

They're all price control companies.
They don't go on sale.
Shimano and Dubarry have been known to pull their products from even larger internet outlets/box stores for going below their pricing. |

Generally true, but if you bring them an ad they will price match. |

There's one 5min from where I'm moving to.
They might as well keep the defender catalog on hand.  |

They do, any time I go in I tell them I can get a better deal from defender, and they go pull the catalog from the back and match it. Still a hassle, but when you need something immediately west marine is often the only place open.

Those items are all MAP priced and some of the manufactures are pretty strict on low balling other retailers. As said, shimano is dead serious about going below MAP priced. It's a very good thing if you are in the retail business. Any company worth it's weight will do "competitive pricing" they just don't exactly advertise it. Never know till you ask  |
