Where to start..... This seller is decidedly Old School, insisting on being paid by Bank Draft which is an experience but since I wanted the rifle, I decided to go along with that. (Never Again!).
I purchased a rifle from Will which I received today. The rifle was wrapped in bubble wrap which saved it from being marked up by the bolt which was loose and unwrapped in the box when I received it. (there was material in the box that suggested it may have been wrapped but it wasn't taped or anything so I cant say for sure). The rifle muzzle was not secured either and was flopping around in the box. The packaging that the manufacturer includes to secure the rifle was in the box; however, it was not used correctly and the rifle was free to move both laterally and lengthwise. Fortunately, the rifle appears to be undamaged for this experience (I will leave an update once I have) but I contacted the seller to advise him on the packaging issues and so far he has been unapologetic and has suggested Canada Post may be responsible.
I look over packages carefully and always record an unboxing video so I know CP did not tamper with the package in any way. Anyway, I make a point of always leaving reviews for both good and bad, as well as things that could benefit from improvement so take this experience for what it is worth to you. I will steer clear in future.
