Review content:
I had been a regular customer of Stan Baker Sports in Seattle since 1988. In 2008 I left a Browning A-Bolt 7mm rifle with the store to sell on consignment. I signed a consignment agreement under which Stan Baker Sports was to receive a consignment fee of 20 percent of the rifle’s selling price. In May 2009, having received no report of a sale, I telephoned the store to let the staff know that I would be retrieving the rifle. The person I spoke to on the phone told me the rifle had sold for $600. Later the same day I went to Stan Baker Sports to collect my share of the proceeds ($480) from the sale of my rifle.
During my visit I spoke to a man who identified himself as Bill Gerdes, whom I believe to be the new owner of Stan Baker Sports, which had moved from its old location. Mr. Gerdes told me I would have to wait for payment. For the next two months I called Stan Baker Sports about once a week and spoke with
either Mr. Gerdes or one of the employees during each call. On each occasion I spoke with Mr. Gerdes he offered some excuse for failing to provide payment to me. For example, he told me on one occasion that he was too busy to take care of my payment, and on another occasion that he was busy waiting on a customer. My last call was on July 11, 2009, when I spoke with Mr. Gerdes and demanded to know when I would receive payment for the proceeds of the consignment sale. Gerdes evaded my question. I lost my temper and ended the call.
As of August 1, 2010,I still have not received payment from Stan Baker Sports. Unfortunately I do not retain a copy of the consignment agreement I signed because I handed my copy it to the counter employee when I visited the 2009, and did not recover it from him before leaving the store. Obviously based on other reviewers experiences it wouldn’t have made any difference. However, the transaction records required of a Federal Firearms Licensee under federal law will show the rifle entering and leaving the inventory of Stan Baker Sports, if the records have been properly created and maintained by the licensee. This review is based on a formal affidavit I signed for another client who was preparing a lawsuit against Stan Baker Sports.
Cons: Dishonest business
