Opticsplanet Coupon

[OpticsPlanet]

I feel like I have to chime in with my experience with optics planet. I ordered a holster for my cz75 about two months ago which was listed in stock. A few days later I received an email stating that it now wasn't in stock, but would be in about a week. After two weeks go by I contacted Optics Planet, who said that it would be another couple of weeks before the holster would be in stock. The email stated that I had to "opt in" to this wait time, or it would be cancelled, so I replied that I would like to keep my order in place (after complaining about the misleading/false ETA). A few days later I received another email from them that mirrored the first, to which I also replied the same. A few days later I get an email stating that, since I never responded, my order was now cancelled, despite two separate emails affirming that I want to keep my order. I'm not even sure I was refunded my money, I was too pissed off about it to even check.
This was my first experience with Optics Planet, and very likely my last. I'm glad it was with a cheap purchase and not for the ACOG I'm planning on picking up. IMHO, they have really poor customer service. I'd rather spend a little more and be confident that I was going to be treated well, than save a few bucks and hope my order comes through.

Hi Dusteddisgusted,

Sorry about your experience. We try to keep out stock updated as fast as possible but during that frenxy and panic buying things were flying off the shelves. Still are in many categorys. I would like to say that if at all possible, call in and speak to us. We're real, we're here, and I'll do whatever I can to help. Sometimes were just at the mercy of manufacturers and other partys.

I'm doing a Encore build and sent multiple emails in to a barrel maker, didn't get a response, so I called in and spoke to them. Great people, theyre just busy and are playing catch up constantly. It was easier to get the few questions and place the order on the phone.

I dont know what happened with your emails or why they werent received, but if you or any customer ever has a doubt, givce us a call. I'm a little old fashioned and like the human interaction in this internet era, but thats just me. So, please, in any case, give us/me a call, send me a PM here, and I'll do whatever I can to help.

I've had a generally good experience with Opticsplanet. Made 2 orders with them and yes 1 of my orders took some extra time but they had what I wanted and the prices were very reasonable. I'd shop with them again.

I came across this thread looking for a discount code and read all of the negative threads and for some reason I didn't listen too them.

I used the fathers day discount code and ordered a Burris scout scope. I got a good deal and I received it in a timely manner.

No problems.

Lucky you! I ordered a set of Hornady 7.92x33 dies from them in January 2013 which allegedly were in stock at the time of placing order my order, never got any shipping confirmation, called them up up, got the "currently out of stock" B.S. and "another 4 weeks" (that was in March 2013). Now it's July 2013, half a year since I placed my order, still no Hornady dies.

Because I believed their B.S. and allowed them to string me along for months, I missed out on buying the same dies on eBay when they were still available. Now the market has totally dried up but I got lucky and found a set on Gunbroker for 100% more than what OpticsPlanet advertized. Guess what, I bought them anyways because I'm tired of waiting for OpticsPlanet to deliver on their promises.

Fact is, they advertise low prices on stuff they don't have in stock to get you to place an order with them which they MAY eventually fulfill. Instead of placing an order with drop shippers like OpticsPlanet because of their incredibly low prices, just shell out a couple extra bucks and buy from a reputable source that actually has merchandise in stock.

Not that Bailey's is any better than OpticsPlanet...

Being the impatient sort I logged on to the OP site and checked my order.
SKU Description Ordered Shipped Status
R2-CS-CFFFEF-140-COY Specter Gear SOP Sling, M-14 / M1A, Ambidextrous 1 1 Item Allocated
R2-CS-ACCFFC-200-COY Specter Gear SOP Armed Forces Deployment Sling, Am 1 1 Item Allocated

No tracking info yet although it shows shipped. Im not sure what to make of the Status of "Item Allocated".

Skark, Send me your order # or email address and I can check on that as well.
