Please, this kind of dialogue does not boost the issue at hand. To simply say that you were treated great by a business that feels that they may have an opportunity to sell you an expensive item by “stroking you” and you fell for it is an insult to your intelligence. I could explain this in the context of my political career, but I will spare you the details. Lets just say that if your feel your were treated special due your being a “life” member of the Parker Collectors Association, and not an “annual member” of the Parkers Association, or just "Joe American off the street" then you were had. Allen, you are smarter that than that. Pure and simple. I am not saying that being a life member is not nice, but we do not need to set up a class struggle between life and annual members. This serves no purpose. All members should feel that they are contributing to the cause of collecting and appreciating the Parker Guns.
