BEWARE:WDFW charging wrong prices for Special Hunt Apps!
« on: April 23, 2012, 08:49:44 PM »
Hey guys just a heads up....

I purchased a Sheep any ram, any moose, and a goat special hunt application in addition to many other licenses and tags. Guess what? Instead of being charged the $7.10 each special hunt app, I was charged double- $13.70. (The price of a quality special hunt app). I brought this to the attention of the customer service rep who decided to make a phone call....he called WDFW and apparently it is wrong in their system! The guy at WDFW was going to go up the chain to get answers from his boss and then he is suppose to call me back. SO....Beware.

I had contacted them a few days ago, and apparently they knew about it for bull elk/buck deer, but I didn't know about the OIL's.

EDIT:  I just check the regs, the Ram, Sheep, Moose should be 13.20...

When I pass, do not let my wife sell the guns for what I told her they cost.

Really? So they changed it? I saved the online version the first day it came out so I guess I've been looking at an outdated copy of the reg's!

I'll have to save the revised version, I guess.  Thanks for posting that.

(makes me wonder what the printed copy will look like)

I think what they did is they changed it to show the prices without inluding the dealer fee. I guess it does make it look a lot better. If you just look at the dollar number it's $13 now instead of $15. A savings of $2.00!

But if you purchase on the WDFW website it is only $13.20 not $13.70?

They are not including thier .50C fee for each item.

Oh, I didn't even notice that 50 cent discrepancy. Ok, now I'm really confused. I give up.

Yes, the tag price shows the same.  The non-res application fee is $110 and change.
