Guys,
I ordered the rifle below from Cabelas this past Saturday. Before I ordered I explained to the person taking the order I wanted to make sure that they had the rifle in stock and was told they did. I explained to the person that I wanted to make sure they had it in stock before placing the order and I was assured they had the rifle in stock and that I'd receive it within 6-8 days. So I gave them my information and they charged my credit card. Today I went in to monitor the order and as you can see my order is now listed as "backordered". I called and explained what I was told When I placed the order. I told them I was ASSURED they had it in stock and that I'd receive it in 6-8 days. I then asked them what they were going to do to make it right. They placed me on hold for about twenty minutes and then came back and said they were sorry but the next shipment wouldn't be in until the end of Oct but even then they couldn't promise that I'd have my order filled then. So I asked again how they were going to make this right and there was simply silence on the line. I asked them if they had placed an order with a company and was assured they would receive the goods bought and paid for in 6-8 days what they would expect and there was stone could silence. Finally they said there only option would be to cancel my order. They acted as if they thought I wouldnt cancel...I told them to cancel my order and give me my money back. This was the third time in the last couple of weeks Cabelas has basically flat out lied to me. I have done A LOT of business with them and at this point they will not get my business in the future. They made absolutely NO EFFORT whatsoever to do anything to make this right.
So please be aware that when they say they have something in stock you simply can not trust them because they do not know whether they have the product in stock or not but they will sure take your money! Not only that but the way I found out it was backordered was I went in and looked. They didn't even send an email or make any other attempt to let me know that they weren't going to fill my order and that it could be months before I received the rifle I ordered. They simply are not to be trusted!
