kentooley Posted December 3, 2007 Report Posted December 3, 2007 I once broke a berkley cherrywood series rod bought from walmart....no receipt, no proper id....was told by the cashier there was nothing they could do....I asked for the manager and raised a stink and walked out with a new rod. Chris
Blake Posted December 3, 2007 Report Posted December 3, 2007 There is a way they should be able to track in the purchases file in their CPU. These records are not deleted and it will take them alot of time to find but they should be able to find it if you give an approxiamate time of purchase.
misfish Posted December 3, 2007 Report Posted December 3, 2007 Take it to Walmart.they exchange anything, Me thinks you are SOL aswell. Sorry.
charlesn Posted December 3, 2007 Report Posted December 3, 2007 Is it a lifetime warranty or is it time-limited? I think you may be screwed if it is time-limited. Maybe contact Browning direct and see what their warranty procedures are. Charles
urbanangler1990 Posted December 3, 2007 Author Report Posted December 3, 2007 thnx guys for ur input BTW what is a SOL? i feel offended
urbanangler1990 Posted December 3, 2007 Author Report Posted December 3, 2007 i got that jist of it, unless ur eye rolling represents something else
douG Posted December 3, 2007 Report Posted December 3, 2007 There was no intent to offend UrbanAngler, but I think your chances of success are slim to none, but it really all boils down to the amount of time you wish to spend on this.

Thanks buddy. No offending was meant,more like I couldnt type the right words.

Guess he didn't grow up in the "era" of asking your dad what the chances of getting the keys to the car were.... and his only comment was SOL son .. SOL.

urbanangler1990 Posted December 3, 2007 Author Report Posted December 3, 2007 got it thnx ontariocarper irishfeild, nah i didnt grow up in the era where dads beat their kids and punishment, im taking off my belt now haha
irishfield Posted December 3, 2007 Report Posted December 3, 2007 irishfeild, nah i didnt grow up in the era where dads beat their kids and punishment, im taking off my belt now haha We didn't need to be beat...we just needed the knowledge that the principal had the school board issued leather strap (or his private Beaver Tail) in his desk drawer and that our parents would do one better when we got home. That was enough to keep us in line and we all turned out fine. Unfortunately the countries gone to hell since... Good luck getting a new browning !
misfish Posted December 3, 2007 Report Posted December 3, 2007 irishfeild, nah i didnt grow up in the era where dads beat their kids and punishment, im taking off my belt now haha Maybe that explains todays ignorant young,ns. Not all but,it was a good thing. Made me think twice,well maybe three times.Slow learner. Beat is so harsh a word.
lew Posted December 3, 2007 Report Posted December 3, 2007 the principal had the school board issued leather strap in his desk drawer Norman Ingram Public School....... Don Mills........ 1954 3 whacks on each hand.....And DID IT EVER HURT, jeeeeeez, I can still feel it And the worst part was..... I was innocent........honest
irishfield Posted December 3, 2007 Report Posted December 3, 2007 Sure ya was Lew...sure ya wuz ! Just like I didn't throw them snowballs at the grade 3 windows back in the day.
Rustic-Fisher Posted December 4, 2007 Report Posted December 4, 2007 Take it Back!!! You have a one year warrenty. I would not worry too much about the bill. cheers Rustic-Fisher, And I work at BPS in the fishing.
Burtess Posted December 4, 2007 Report Posted December 4, 2007 Take it Back!!!You have a one year warrenty. I would not worry too much about the bill. cheers Rustic-Fisher, And I work at BPS in the fishing. I agree.... I had the BPS breathable waders for about 13months and they wore out in the inseam area. I took them in, no bill, and explained to them that I had bought them about (or slightly less) than a year before and they replaced them no problem. Even got a bill with the replaced pair lol.... Burt
Canuck2fan Posted December 4, 2007 Report Posted December 4, 2007 We didn't need to be beat...we just needed the knowledge that the principal had the school board issued leather strap (or his private Beaver Tail) in his desk drawer and that our parents would do one better when we got home. That was enough to keep us in line and we all turned out fine. Unfortunately the countries gone to hell since... Good luck getting a new browning ! Exactly the Principal didn't scare me with the strap but knowing that I would get it worse at home sure kept me from tempting fate too much LOL. As my dad used to say, whatever that guy does to you it won't be nothing compared to what will happen to you here.... it was one heck a good bluff because it worked.
addict Posted December 4, 2007 Report Posted December 4, 2007 take it to wal-mart they have the best return policy hands down.im all for wal-mart even if its american owned i hate ctc and am very reluctant to give them cash unless i have to they treat u like a criminal and will even give u a hard time with a reciept.bought an auger from can tire the blde came off the second time i used it less than a week old with reciept wouldnt even give me cap screws so i could fix it myself.bought a shimano convergence from ctc broke the tip and return it at wal-mart no reciept no questions asked on straight exchange
urbanangler1990 Posted December 4, 2007 Author Report Posted December 4, 2007 hmm this walmart idea is intresting, but what if no WM or CTC carry, or carried a 10 6 browing? do u think theyll still take it?
steverowbotham Posted December 4, 2007 Report Posted December 4, 2007 Browning is a BPS brand. WalMart and CTC wont carry it
kentooley Posted December 5, 2007 Report Posted December 5, 2007 The reason I brought Wal-Mart up was because once I asked for the manager I got results plus, the fact they are such a large organization didn't hurt either. BPS is no small outfit and I think you'll get looked after. Chris
