Yeah, their prices are usually pretty good, but their inventory isn't always reliable, and worse yet, they aren't really honest about it. More than once, including my most recent order with them a few days ago, they showed an item in stock, took my money, and then I get an email later saying that the item is on backorder, and it's going to take X weeks to get it in stock.Weg wrote:I've used Optic's Planet lately, no complaints, and their prices are very competitive.
I ordered a Primary Arms Advanced Microdot and a Midwest Industries MI Gen2 Sub 2000 T1/T2 Optic Mount, both for my new Keltec Sub-2000 on 12/30. After placing the order, I got an email saying:
This is not the first time this has happened to me with them. They do not do a good job of maintaining product availability information on their website. I would have paid the same prices for both products buying them from Primary Arms' website directly, but on their website, the optic mount was backordered. I made my decision based on Optics Planet moving giving any indication that the product was out of stock."Midwest Industries MI GEN2 SUB 2000 T1/T2 OPTIC MOUNT, Black, MI-G2SUB-T2 - Estimated to ship within 12-21 days".
Well, they got my money, but it's a hind of dishonest way of doing business. It will be a cold day in hades before I buy from them again.
