Has anyone who ordered from ADI on the 4th got or heard anything?

Placed order with ADI on 4 Jan, got an update yesterday to expect tracking number the first of next week.

As of today, Botach is showing 308 Pmags in stock at $18.95 with free shipping. So nothing lost ordering the limit of three. Sucks for those guys (like me) who placed orders early on though.

Botach is out of the 308 PMAGS now.

Well, I just put an order through for 30, it let me do it and I had everything done, just had to hit "submit" but I just wanted to make sure they had real-time inventory so I Googled that...

What I turned up was hundreds of complaints online as well as more than 100 through the BBB (according to one site, I didn't dig as much as they did). There are old and current threads on here and other sites about how they conduct business. Seems some folks have no problem, stuff ships next day. Others can't get the order or the money back without significant hassle. When I tried calling them to ask, it only lets you hold for so long before it forces you to leave a message, no matter what line you try. It seems they'll say they have them in stock to get your business, then tell you they are backordered. That seems to be a common theme with them, past and present. It also defeats me as to how they are constantly "in stock" when nobody else, including Brownell's (one of Magpul's biggest resellers) can even cover their existing backorders. But maybe it works like this: one guy said today that he ordered a bunch nearly a month ago and they sent him 3, telling him that to service everyone they were only going to send 3 as a limit. But it let me place an order for 30 anyway?

So I just emptied the cart out. Try again, maybe they'll have 'em now. I'll just hang onto my backorder with Brownell's. They should ship in two or three weeks I'm told. I just don't want to risk getting "Botached" a term I learned on here; another guy said the only thing they have in stock is "good 'ole fashion fucken". That they are equal opportunity scammers screwing "military and civilians alike". That and everything else I read wasn't too confidence inspiring, considering they aren't exactly that big of a business from what I can tell.

Re: 308 PMAGS

yeah, Botach is the farthest from real time inventory you will ever find.

 

[Maverick26]

Re: 308 PMAGS

Im figuring out that I think I should consider myself lucky if I get 3 out of the 10 I ordered from them and learn my lesson. I did send them an email expressing my feelings but I doubt that will change anything. Service like this really crinkles my sack.

Re: 308 PMAGS

I have actually had decent luck with Botach, in that they got me hard to get items at a good price, just a little slow. My last order from them though I put a note in the order to please tell me if the items were out of stock. A couple months passed without any response, then finally I got an email stating my order was being cancelled because they could not fill it.

Re: 308 PMAGS

so back to adi, ordered on the 4th, still no info outside of confirmation email. today will be the 15 day window they quote. it does seem weird that orders received after are getting filled and shipped.

What did you order? Very curious since my order was 3 days before your's but still nothing. I ordered 308 Pmags.

Re: 308 PMAGS

I ordered 2 .308 pmags from botach last night and got a tracking number today. Heads up boys.

Re: 308 PMAGS

They are already out of stock - "Sold Out".

No surprise there.

Update

I'm not going to say I've been Botached, but after receiving a second shipping notification from Botach I decided to go directly to their website to confirm my good fortune. Here is what I found, first the bad. My 5 308 PMag and 8 30 rounder pmags order actually shipped with only 3 308 pmags. The good, the additional 308 PMag order I placed yesterday also shipped. So I will end up with 6 pmags total from Botach which I am very happy about given what is going on out there.

Maverick26, I suspect that if you review your order online you will find that only 3 of your 10 mags are headed your way. Good luck

 

[Rigamortous]

Re: 308 PMAGS

Last time I ordered from Botach was about two years ago, waited 4 months for some Pmags. I had to contact my credit card to get my money back.
I think it is a crap shoot if you actually get what you order..

 

[coanan]

Re: 308 PMAGS

Yes I'm getting my "three" 19.00 308s on the 28th from Botach. If they have it in stock it ships next day, referring to my $65.00 FDE 42" Sig Sauer bag.

 

[Maverick26]

Re: 308 PMAGS

Yep only 3 out of 10 in the box and should be here in a few days. This blows, I think they pissed more folks off by cutting orders back rather then filling orders. I would rather have the guys in front of me get their complete order and Ill wait longer then spread out what they got in and try and make everyone happy with a cheap shot like this.

Re: 308 PMAGS

I emailed them on Friday after I saw other orders going out. I only asked where I was in line. Their reply:

Sorry its been taking so long . Must likely you should get a tracking number by sometime this upcoming week.


Still patiently waiting.

I'm assuming you meant 1/6...but same here. Ordered on the 4th, confirmation on the 6th, a semi-lame response on the 18th and nothing since.

Re: 308 PMAGS

same dates and story here, hope to see something soon.

 

[jonthomps]

Re: 308 PMAGS

Sent an email to them just now. If they don't respond or send me a tracking # I'm done with them. There site stated a 15-day shipping delay but that the mags were in stock when I placed my order. It is now the 28th and haven't heard anything since.

[tylerw02]

Re: 308 PMAGS

I had an order show up. Also, apparently the local shop had their order show up. I asked him price, but it was high. If anybody is desperate, I'll pick them up for them if you'll pay for the mags/shipping. I believe he was asking $40-45. Send me a PM if you're that desperate.

 

[torch78]

Re: 308 PMAGS

Has any one with an ADI order on 1-5 heard or seen anything? figured 1-4 stuff was going out we wouldn't be far behind but no such luck as of yet.

 

[hlee]

Re: 308 PMAGS

So it looks like the ADI pipeline is moving, if slowly. Now, does anyone have an order at Quantico Tactical? I placed an order on 12/21. I did receive an indefinite backorder email. Anyone received their mags from them? Thanks.

 

[Mk4]

Re: 308 PMAGS

My order placed on Jan. 4 arrived today. The order no. was 1115. I placed another order for more mags later on the same day. That order no. is 1134 and forthcoming (hopefully).

My order was 1138...no news to date.

 

[hlee]

Re: 308 PMAGS

Just got shipping notification from Quantico Tactical that my order, placed on 12/21 shipped 1/25 and should be at my house now. They came in well under their non binding estimate of 2 to 3 or more months.

I'm done buying mags and all told I probably overbought. However, I consider it- given the current climate- a case of "voting with my dollars." I wonder if anyone is counting...

My order from ADI was placed the same day and is number 1132 so we are all right in that same group. When I hear something I will be sure to post it.

Re: 308 PMAGS

ADI order 1114 placed 4Jan for 308 Pmags received today plus Botach orders placed 18 Dec and 24 Jan 308 pmags received today. However, the 18 Dec order was shipped incomplete. All in all, it was a very good day.

Re: 308 PMAGS

ADI order # 1140 and 1142 Placed on the 4th. Both for 308 Pmags. Still no shipping notification. I have inquired a couple times and ADI has gotten back to me very quickly each time. A+ on communication. Hopefully they come thru with the goods now...
