Just got a Federal 525, this link http://www.cabelas.com/checkout/retr...12&WT.tsrc=AFF


02/05/2014 $30.95 In Process

Email said in stock, order status says Availability: Backordered

It may or may not get filled because it is coming from canceled orders. Someone needs to call and check on their order!

Says out of stock now

It did for me to but I clicked on it again and it came up and got one. We'll see I guess.

Same here, 2 from yesterday with different ship to name. I wonder are they looking at CC Holders Name, Cookies or IP Address. Maybe, none of the afore mentioned.

But there busting us some how. However, I still have 3 in process.

I'm thinking none of the above.
I doubt they devote a great deal of resources to nailing repeat order offenders.
I could be wrong.
I'm guessing its an inventory and timing thing.
I could be wrong on that too.

When I said it said in stock I mean in my order status...the site always says OOS.

Also, I ordered M22 one day...the next day they were shipping them out...I got another from canceled orders...and it got canceled...but many did get them the second day so this is a 50/50 chance I guess because they are coming from canceled order re-stock...so it is a timing/luck issue today.

I think it has something to do with the "view order" link. When you click it I'm sure the site does some sort of a search and sees that it's not in stock and maybe auto cancels it or places it on BO.. All the ones that got cancelled for me I had clicked on that link before hand. I'm probably wrong but who knows

I got a confirmation email that said In Stock. View order said Back Order.

Then View order Changed to In Stock so I don't think view order cancels them and it's just if they have enough to make up for say me and you both getting one through in the same second or two.

I'm trying sometime different with Cabelas. I would add an item from my wish list to my ammo order. It worked last week with the Rem TBs.

Hopefully it will work with my order placed yesterday. I think this would make it harder for Cab to cancel the order. I hope I didn't jinx myself.

I've been clicking the view order link off and on since 7am and it all still says inprocess/in stock/ship date 2/12.
I don't think its that.

I called Cabelas CS yesterday to cancel a double order and had a friendly chit-chat with the girl about how it was an accident i put in a 2nd order, she said the computer would have caught it if i didn't called in. So I asked "how does it do that? email? name? credit card #?" she said "oh it see's the credit card number."
So be careful folks and don't be greedy

I would think if it zeroed in on the CC # it would not allow you to place a second order at all in whatever 24hr window/day they observe.
I will be watching mine.
I placed the repeat order yesterday assuming it would shut me out just like it does when you try to order more than one of a limit one item.
It did not.
Time will tell.
I hope it goes through because i already have a buyer for the stuff i ordered at an INSANE profit.
Just kidding.
I was actually moving ammo around in my safe last night so the old stuff i have gets pushed to the front.
First in, first out.

Don't want to get cancelled???...Play by the rules...

I know a few people who work there and 1 is a supervisor.
Had a chat with her during the peak of the shortage(Spring/Summer).
Back then we had a bunch of Flippers trying to game the SYS, since they could get at least 3x/4x what it was going for.
(BTW, This was shortly after they started to crack down.)

Said CC as well as Addy info is 1 way they flag multiples to be reviewed.
(Unless it's a Hubby/Wife/Kid deal w/separate BigC account).

Best to have Separate Accounts, Different cards and stick to 1 ea. per day rule in order to avoid the flag hammer.
Different ship addys helps as well...(Office, 2nd home, Parent's, Friend, etc.)

Before any1 asks...Yes they did flag repeat offenders.
(IOW all orders will be scrutinized once caught.)

Either the Volume of offenders has been less, they've streamlined the catch code, or devoted more resources towards it.
I say this as it used to take at least 2 days before the multis started to be released back into stock.
Now it's a day or less...

Been meaning to try an find out the current SYS, But can never find the spare time to get in touch and BS.

Hope this helps
Watch your 6, God Bless and Stay Safe,

[Mrrod2001]

If you have a second account don't you need a second credit card billing address? if not ill get the with to get a account and use one of my different cards, but same CC billing address. And ship to my work address.
