You may wish to carefully check your bulk orders from SGAmmo. I was shorted in mine, mentioned it to them without even asking for compensation, and they blamed me.
I've ordered successfully from SGAmmo in the past, so when they shorted me (by one insignificant round) on a 500 round box, I sent them a polite note mentioning that I'd been shorted, I didn't need a refund or replacement, but that they might want to know about it since other customers may get offended by a similar shortage.
I am positive it was missing because I pulled the rounds straight out of the box and into neat rows on the clear/clean floor, in order to bag them into baggies of 50 rounds. No rounds were transported or carried anywhere else, and of course I carefully checked the area in case I had somehow (somewhat unbelievably) thrown one around. I took a photo of my lineup and sent it to them. You can see the short stack in the bottom right.
They replied that I should check my baggies because I must have put an extra one in one of them. They said it is impossible for them to short an order because they take boxes of rounds and dump them directly into an ammo can.
I wrote back and said that I had not yet stuffed any baggies, and again pointed to the photo and the procedure I used to unpack their box. I said they should look at the photo for proof of the shortage, and that perhaps they dropped one of the rounds outside of the ammo can when they dumped it. I said that is not an impossible scenario, as they suggested.
They didn't respond.
So I got less than I paid for, and then I got blamed for it. A round of .45 ACP is not even half a buck, so it isn't the money. It's the principle; if all they'd wrote back was, "Oh, sorry - thanks for letting us know!" even with no offer of compensation, I would have felt great about it.
