Done with Midway USA

[ocabj]

First one was supposed to be Possum Hollow for a 308 Howa, I get it in the mail and a .30 cal brush will not FIT. I end up returning that one. I ordered a " universal proshot" one and the locking collar is too thick to be used. Their description list's it as " universal" which is in fact specific to only a handful of rifles.

Product descriptions are basically cut-and-pasted from the manufacturer's product page or product spec sheet. Blame the manufacturer.

If Midway is off the list, he can always shop at Cheaper Than Dirt.

Did you write Larry? I think he actually cares about customer dissatisfaction.

I'm not done with them but they seem to charge obscene prices for shipping. Almost 10 bucks for a mag pouch that can't weigh very much or take up a ton of packaging.

There shipping use to be expensive but in the last year they restructured the way and cost of shipping. Now they are very reasonable shipping charges on items I have ordered.

OP---I am so sorry. I forgot that since you are an EMS you know everything. I forgot to bow down to you. I am sure your are so much brighter and better than us peons who only have two teaching credential, 3 degrees and many years of experience. You might add on Common Sense also since it was you whining and not us about something that was probably your and not midways fault.
If it is a defective part contact the manufacture.
Get a life and quit whining...As you can see most here do not want to hear it. Also your precious EMS status

Look Hunter. I didn't intend for the thread to come off as me being " Whinny" I was simply trying to inform members of an issue I had with a vendor. Instead you wrote a condescending remark, which I found to be out of line.

How did you not expect a negative remark? Moving along it's that type of attitude were we " eat our own" is doing damage to this forum and the firearms
community.

Tacit, Have you given them a call and a chance to make things right? I have been buying from Midway for years and only had a couple of minor problems, both of which were corrected by Midway via overnight shipping me a replacement (or correct) item. Also let me note that both times, Midway simply told me to keep the incorrect item, rather than ship it back to them. Bottom line..... Midway is the 800 pound gorilla.... better to work with them, than against them.

With Regards, Bridgeport

I did contact them. They suggested a few products and the Pro-Shot was one of them. They also told me they didn't have return labels, that it's to be shipped back " via the most economical means".

Kind of like you did with Midway???? There have been several gun stores around me that have closed and no NEW ones to replace them. My local gun store turned into a grocery market.

I do however appreciate the irony when folks boast about their extensive educational background with grammar befitting a middle school remedial English class.

It never fails.

What is with the fad of people "announcing" that they are done or never stepping foot into an establishment? This is like the Calguns version of tweeting selfies, a way to get attention? Is not shopping there anymore too discreet, it must be announced? Whatever, don't care. I've shopped there for almost 10 years and never had a problem.

Because they have over inflated opinions of themselves, and believe that somehow their one dissatisfied transaction with a nationwide retailer entitles them to expose their whiny nature all over the internet....

It's all about them.... Sad.

Worst part is Midway expects you to pay for return shipping. They don't offer a Return Label...

I got a product that was bad. Ended up getting them to cover the return postage after I argued with them. Rather than crediting the amount back to my credit card they issued a credit I had x time to use. Didn't use it haven't bought there since.
