WHY ARE YOU YELLING?

[doodoostain]

just make sure to call their CS to check inventory on hand. never had a problem with them before.

this is what i do as well. i pick everything i want and put it in my online cart. then i call in the order with all the product numbers. if something is out of stock, they'll tell me and i can decide whether i want to wait for it or let them upsell me. usually i just tell them i don't want that piece. its sort of a pain in the butt but usually i find their prices worth the extra work.

Caps lock....it's a terrible thing to waste...

OPTICS PLANET STINKS ON TOAST! I MADE TWO ORDERS, ONE FOR $500 AND ANOTHER FOR $250. BOTH WERE PUT ON "HOLD" WHATEVER THAT MEANS. I HAD TO CANCEL BOTH ORDERS.

BOTTOM LINE IS THAT THEIR BUSINESS PRACTICES ARE TERRIBLE. SELLING THINGS YOU DO NOT HAVE IN STOCK WITHOUT TELLING THE CUSTOMER BEFORE THE TRANSACTION IS COMPLETE IS SHADY AT BEST AND REALLY DECEPTIVE. THEY KNOW THAT IF THEY TELL YOU THEY DO NOT HAVE THE ITEM IN STOCK YOU WILL MOST LIKELY CANCEL THE TRANSACTION, SO THEY WAIT AND INFORM YOU BY EMAIL INSTEAD.

AS I WROTE TO THEM "I WILL NEVER BUY ANYTHING FROM THEM".

BTW THEIR PRICES ARE NOT MUCH BETTER THAN CAN BE OBTAINED BY SHOPPING AROUND A LITTLE MORE. INSTEAD, I PURCHASED THE TWO ITEMS AT VENDORS THAT SUPPORT CALGUNS AND AR15.COM -AND- HAD THE ITEM IN STOCK.

I THINK THEY ARE JUST A MARKETING ORGANIZATION, I WOULD THINK TWICE BEFORE BUYING FROM THEM.

BUY FROM REAL GUN PEOPLE WHO SUPPORT THE SECOND AMMENDMENT AND THE NRA.

I've placed 3 orders with them so far. Granted I called CS to verify stock on hand. Polite service and free/quick shipping. No complaints here.
