My first experience with Cabela's will be my last. On September 28th I ordered a rifle. My only option was to pick it up at my "local" Cabela's store, which happens to be 90 miles one-way. I got a great price on the rifle, and free shipping. It was stated that it would take 5-8 business days to arrive. On September 29th, I received an email stating my rifle had shipped. Terrific. My rifle has now been in the "shipping" process for 10 calendar days, 7 actual business days. Its killing me. Cabela's, where is my rifle? How can you take so long? How do you possibly think this is a positive experience for a customer? Do you actually expect me to tell all my friends what a great experience I had with my first Cabela's order?
Yes, I understand you get what you pay for. Yes, I understand they stated 5-8 business days. It still makes me angry. They certainly didn't wait 5-8 business days to charge me. I have ordered several firearms from Buds Gun Shop, and got free shipping. It certainly didn't take 2 weeks for my item to arrive.
I can only pick up my rifle on a Monday, because of work, and other obligations. IF my rifle isn't available this Monday for pickup, it will be a month since I ordered it, before I will obtain it, IF it even arrives next week.
I will NEVER order another thing from Cabela's. Anytime someone asks for an opinion about Cabela's, I will go out of my way to detail my poor experience. I may be wrong in doing so, because it was stated 5-8 business days, but I don't care. I'm mad, and there's no excuse for an item to take so long to arrive.
