This is NOT good news...... Have always had good luck with Porterfield. Not this time. I purchased 2 boxes of Speer 100gr BT 257 bullets to try on Coyotes on Friday.
Upon viewing the tracking yesterday, I clicked on "order details" and to my amazement it showed they had ( by mistake ) shipped 2 boxes of 87gr flat base bullets. So I called C.S. thinking they would take care of it..........
WoW: I spoke to a fella named Ben he quickly informed me; there was NOTHING, Midway could do to help !!! I asked for an explanation WHY, he says we 2 issues here ( both to protect themselves) #1 they shipped them via USPS and he claimed they couldn't stop the order or have it returned........ok, so of course I suggested return label. He was ready for that one; he informed me Larry has a policy now on bullets; they now are "NON RETURNABLE" Item !!!! So I asked; What I was supposed to do with them??? Ben abruptly replied " what ever you want to" then added: Unless there is anything else, have a nice remainder of your weekend.
I was smoking mad, but within a few seconds before I could really absorb all this, he disconnected us.....
What the hell has happened to Larry's once great company???
I spend $100's of dollars with them, have been with them over 20 years, used to spend thousands a year few years back.
They treated me like a fly by nite scumbag placing his first order with Midway!
I am frankly dumbfounded
