Default Johnston's in Croydon... Anyone?

The full name of the shop is Johnston's Auto Parts and Sporting Goods. They're on State Road, smack in the middle of Croydon (Lower Bucks County). The combination of businesses under one roof gives it a "General Store" kind of feel (which I like). They seemed to have decent prices.

I'm just curious to see if anyone has ever had any dealings with them. Thoughts?

I've shopped there, people seem OK prices arent the best but not bad.

That's how I felt... prices between OK and high... just above median. And thanks for the input.

I was their a couple of months back and looked at some of their lever action rifles which were not to bad, I did find a good price on a winchester. But ya you have to know what your looking at and the blue book as like any place you shop. Over all they were friendly and was a good experience.

Update...

Just completed a transaction with them and couldn't be happier. Good price on a good piece... and they worked with me on a layaway deal. As an aside, you should also check them out if you have a thing for high-end knives (as in Chis Reeves and others).
