It might not be PSA's fault. Tula ammo boxes are pretty much useless, as they are flimsy and come apart during shipping. Lets face it, Fedex and UPS drivers and sorters hate to lift ammo and I have seen them just throw the stuff to the floor rather than set it down. Where I work, we are forever taping the boxes closed after we have counted the right amount of rounds that "escaped" the boxes.

It actually is PSA's fault. They slap a shipping label on the case of ammo and push it out the door, they don't put in a proper box and are absolutely aware of the failure rate.

They receive the ammo in proper shipping form on pallets, etc, but don't put in the effort for their customers.

They leave it up to UPS to fix their mistake, and if lost/missing they take a very liberal and extended amount of time to refund you. Been there and done that, it sucked.

You ordered 1000 rounds at a really good price.

You got 1000 rounds at a really good price.

If they all work, you got precisely what you paid for and I'd be happy.

If you wanted pretty packaging...maybe the cut-rate ammo wasn't the best choice?

I placed the same order from PSA. Mine showed up without an issue. Altho I think the TulAMMO cardboard boxes that my 1k shipped in, is just to flimsy for that weight of ammo to ship. Probably doesn't help that it was during the Holiday rush....

Holiday rush + 40lb box + UPS = Box isn't getting any love.

Looks good to me. It's steel x39 who cares

Exactly. That packaging is all that particular ammo deserves.

Mine came pretty beat up but not that bad. Check out the pics other ppl posted from that same order

its this simple.

I have never ordered ammo from them, but have ordered plenty of other parts. usually have no issues with them, besides wait time, but this time I was missing a take down detent and an entire FCG ... was not happy about that luckily I wasn't waiting on them to finish a build

[dyson]

ya my case was shipped without any packaging too and had a huge rip in it. definitely will order from someone else over PSA if prices are competitive. Actually would of saved more money if I had waited for Cabelas with gc deal that followed shortly after.

I can't imagine what you would say to PSA. "Hey you guys, my ammunition was packaged sloppily."

"Was it all there and in good condition?"

"Well, yeah."

"I'm sorry, sir, we'll try to do better next time. Good-bye!"

I have ordered a few things from PSA.

They are slow, very slow to ship. If you are not in a hurry that is fine.

The only real issue I had was the 1k rounds of x-tac i ordered showing up in the factory packaging.

Small arms ammunition - 1000 rounds printed all over the outside of the dang box. So much for being discreet.

I have ordered from other places and everything always comes in a plain brown box and free shipping.

PSA is the only place i know where you normally pay for shipping and it is even packaged well.

Take you money elsewhere at that point -

They are not the only game in town.

The .308 I ordered came with the boxes shrink wrapped together

I normally order from SGAmmo and Natchez Shooting Supply. The ammunition is packaged in the original cartons if possible. No big deal.

And do you really believe you are not paying for shipping when you get "free shipping?" Ammunition is heavy and costs a lot to ship. Either you are paying for it explicitly or it is built into the purchase price.

Shipping codes?

Sometimes sure - You do pay, but like i said, at least it is packaged in another box.

When I buy any other product they are placed inside a package. For example - I ordered a scope from Rainier - they didn't just slap the label on the side of the scope box and send it on its way.

Some people are more discreet than others. Just a word of warning to those people that are.

Meh. Unless there are rounds missing, I'd chalk it up to the old "You get what you pay for" disclaimer.
