Does it bother LDS owners when people who they have been working with (renting gear to, etc.) purchase their gear used from an outside source instead of the LDS? I've seen many people do this; the gal at my LDS is very laid back and kind so I don't think purchasing gear from someone else and bringing it in to her shop for a check up, repair, etc. would bother her. Buy how do you LDS owners feel about this?
The reason I ask is because a buddy of mine and I had an interesting experience a few weeks back. He had purchased a used reg off of eBay, which saved him about $400 total from the MSRP. As usual he brought it in to his LDS to have it overhauled I believe. The guy behind the counter looked annoyed when he mentioned that he "Bought it used to save a few bucks." He's been going to this same guy for 3+ years now.
