My uh oh moment

I decided on the Lowrance Elite 5 ti for the kayak. Today being a rare day off from work, we head to the sporting goods store to pick up my new toy and some other goodies I needed to finish rigging out the kayak. We ate lunch wentry to a few more stores and headed home. I head out to put on the anchor trolley and finish the tackle crate. I decided to take a look and the depth finder to figure out mounting locations and what I will need, opened the box and :yikes, no depth finder, just the transducer and cables and the cover. My heart sank. The sales guy was looking for the display box so I could have a look at the transducer, he couldn't find it. Mystery solved I found the display box. Talked with the Team Leader over the hunting and fishing section and she was very cooperative, the girlfriend will take it back for me tomorrow since I will be at work. Hopefully everything will go smoothly.

Always open the box!!!

I did open the box. The first one that was beat up. So I asked for the one that wasn't beat up looking, in my haste I did not open that one. Open the box is sage advice.

The best deal was to get em to take sumtin off cause it was blemish ed

Gonna have to work that angle anyway now

Hope everything works out for you in the long run. I would probably have had a heart attack myself if that had happened to me. Good luck with rigging the Kayak and I will be looking forward to seeing your fishing reports and pictures.

Bummer! Good luck.

Academy made it good. What went in my favor is the box has a serial number on it and that number matched the unit on display. So it's on with the installation and hope to be on the water soon.

Glad everything work out for you. Now go get um Jack. :highfive

Academy sporting goods is great about customer satisfaction . The one in Tupelo is covered up most days . Good people to deal with .:ThumbsUp
