Rebate Magazines

[bczrx]

I called the rebate company [milano?] on Thursday to ask for an ETA.

I mailed the forms on the 22nd of September. On the 23rd of October they popped up on the website as having been processed on the 15th. I called on Thursday to ask about when the ship date would be listed. They told me it would ship 8 weeks after they received the paperwork [i.o.w.: 5 weeks from now?].

Today they arrived in the mail.

What is even more confusing is that I ordered the mags for the 9compact. I received them. But I also received 2 mags for the 40/357 compact.

So, now what do I do? I don't own ANY .40S&W, so this might be an excuse to change that. Or a .357sig.

OR I could sell them and buy ammo in 9.

Or should I call S&W and say I received the .40 mags but own a 9? [conveniently neglecting to say I ALSO received mags for the 9c]

I just checked before finalizing this message and RebateInquiryOnline still doesn't show a ship date.

Someone is messing up somewhere.

No markings on the package to indicate it was two magazines. Someone either felt it and figured it out or knew from the beginning what was in the package. They shipped it in a small bubble envelope. Looks like I'll file a complain with FedEx and USPS. According the USPS the package arrive that way, which means they are blaming FedEx.

I called FedEx today and they said I need to deal with the shipper, meaning S&W. Does anyone know is there a special number or just the general 1800 number?

Got my shipping email today woohoo! But seriously a week to ship from MA to WI? Are they strapped to the back of a hamster with arthritis? lol

 

[oamaam]

I just checked online and get nothing, I know its been over 5 weeks, guess I'll have to call

Well mine is in the system as of the 15th of the month. Yippeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

mine arrived on Monday of this week from S&W in MA.

Time to buy another M&P, BUT prices are supposed to be dropping so I'll wait

This is getting ridiculous.

Noticed yesterday they moved my est delivery to the 16th and they were already in the next town over. Went out to teh mail box today and there they were. 3 days earlier than the est delivery date and about 5 weeks after I mailed it. This was for FS 9mm mags

 

[vista461]

Did anyone else get two of the same tracking numbers ? Weird there was only one package

I got an email with the same tracking numbers twice. Now if I can get a real mail with the darned magazines!

[Szumi]

I can't believe it, check the first few Fedex tracking statements. I'm going to have to call S&W this is getting way past ridiculous. The Milano site had a phone number to call but tonight it seems to be missing. I wonder wth is going on.

I called S&W today, had to tell my story to three people but the last one in the chain was running the shipping department.

Gave him my tracking number, he instantly knew who I was, my pistols serial number and the mags I ordered.

Told me they would ship me replacement mags via Fedex 2nd day direct to my door and none of this dropping off at a postal facilty for the last leg stuff. He also said it would likely take a couple days to actually get it shipped assuming they had the mags in stock.

He also gave me his direct phone number so I can call him back if things are not rectified.

Just recieved email with order number and stock status (available). It is so nice to deal with someone in a big company that can actually help.

 

[bluzman]

Anyone who opted for the $50 rather than the magazines received a check yet? It's been 6 weeks since I sent in the paperwork and 4 weeks since Milano showed it as processed...but so far, no ship date.

 

[bobbb]

Almost 3 months waiting for 9mm compact mags.

 

[Meztiso]

I just got my 2 mags for my 40cal the other day. I think it took about 5 or 6 weeks?

 

[Szumi]

The guy I talked to was true to his word, my replacements for the mags that never came showed up today!

All and all it took two months to get mags for my .40 M&P compact.

Bought my M&P 9C the 4th of July weekend. Submitted rebate and it showed up on the Milano site August 27th. Called Milano, they said they approved the rebate and sent it to S&W in the middle of September for shipment. S&W says backorder'd. I'm still waiting, and frustrated.

Where do you live? If you are in California, then something is wrong.

I bought my M&P 9c in mid-september, sent in my rebate form when I picked it up after the DROS period, and received my magazines around the start to mid November.

HOWEVER, I am in California, so I was getting the M&P 9C 10-round mags. If you are out of the state they could be out of the 12 round mags for the 9c.

 

[agksimon]

S&W is out of the 9c 12 round magazines with the finger extension. I have one on backorder. I called them and they told me it would be a couple of weeks till they came in. They do have them in stock without the finger extension.
