Midway USA Rant

[Rastoff]

Un-freaking-believable! I can't believe anyone shops there.

I ordered a bunch of stuff on the 9th.
Everything I wanted was showing "in stock".
Midway had the unmitigated gall to charge me $4.34 to ship it.
They had the audacity to send me an immediate notice that they received my order.
The very next day, without any concern for me, they shipped it.
They had the arrogance to give me a notice that it would arrive on the 18th.
Then, without regard for my life style or feelings, it arrived today; 6 days early.


Man, how can you people stand to use them!!!


For the sarcasm challenged, this was all said tongue in cheek. I've never had anything but a good experience with Midway USA.

Some people actually DO complain about MidwayUSA, but I've never had a bad experience with them. In fact, I've been very pleased...especially with their return policy.

Sure, I get a little frustrated when things are out of stock, but that's only because I think I should get what I want when I want it,and ahead of anyone else.

Other than Midway's lack of recognition of my importance, they are a great company to deal with IMO.

I was waiting for a "but" in there

I've never had an issue with them - actually placing an order tonight. Sometimes the shipping is a bit much depending on what you buy, but I'm getting free shipping this time around, so I guess I really can't whine.

I don't even know how you could order from them because I can't get the home page to stop downloading. There web site hangs my CPU so that even ctrl, alt, del doesn't work. Ten minutes later I have to press the power button and re-boot. Can't look at any thing they have on their web site. Use to work, but not now (for weeks).

Just received my last Midway order on Wednesday (exactly when they said I'd get it), my Lee Bullet mold, new dipper and front trigger frame screw for my Ruger SB and a few misc item....all as described. Damn them! LOL

When I order from Midway, if I place it before 2 PM I will have it the next day (unless it is a very small item and it goes by USPS, then it takes 3 days). The thing I don't like is the "UP" charge for an order less than ? $25 - $30. I have found myself going to Brownells more and more.

I haven't bought much from them, but I have been satisfied with everything I have ordered. Most recently, they were the only place I could find who had a mag for my FEG. Despite its scarcity, it cost less than any other magazine I have bought, either OTC or on-line.

Thanks!

I recently placed an order. One item was a scope which had free shipping (not really free free) but the rest of my stuff went in the box at no shipping also. I even had a $10 off promotional code.

Received the package and scope is installed.

Amazing!
