Your only redemption at this point would be to order the rail.
Aggravated with Area 419

I heard they’re doing free shipping through the weekend too!
This thread:
Yeah but it definitely delivers, and ironically enough also ships... Free.

Good through the weekend if I understood that correctly. So hurry.
Rails do not ship in the same box as a press though...

What a bunch of shit. Why would think about ordering if they don’t combine items. Fuck thatGood through the weekend if I understood that correctly. So hurry.

Right, it's genius. I feel like buying something just for the lulz of using the Zback code.OK, this got me
I cant stop laughing so I just had to buy something
I am also frustrated with area 419.
I ordered an arca rail, and they would not throw a zero press in the box with it!
Ok I didn’t actually order either. Still annoyed.

The title of this thread should be changed to ‘Area 419 offering free shipping through the weekend’.
Everyone wins.

Reason #1380743 to never work customer service in this industry.
This has been well worth the wait time to see it play out.
Ordered a RAIL and a T-SHIRT and applied code ZBACK for FUCK YEAH FREE shipping!
Sadly I will continue to use my ancient press-of-the-poors Co-Ax

The problem I see though Zback is that the issue you have isn't really about the $16 separate postage fee, is it.
What you have done or tried to do, is to seek to destroy or tarnish the reputation of a business because you couldn't get all that you wanted instead of what you paid for. The fact that the extra cost to you was, as you've stated $16, it can't have been the cost in pure money terms.
In your mind, that $1300 you paid for the press, buys a whole lot more, doesn't it. Not because it's $1300 but, because it's your $1300 that you have blessed Area 419 with, in exchange for the press, isn't it?
I'll bet you have this trouble all the time with everything you buy. Rude customer service, fit & finish never up to scratch, wait times always too long & on & on, the list never ends.
I think the problem is really your problem. Mommy told you your whole life how wonderful you are, always let you interrupt the adults conversations, never forced you to take responsibility for your actions, never made you persevere, never taught you patience, never spoke about the position or plight of others around you.
Because of the likely possibility that you have no concept of what you have tried to do, I'll state it in plain terms:
You tried to destroy a company over a $16 postage fee.
You tried to destroy a company over a $16 postage fee.
You tried to destroy a company over a $16 postage fee.
You tried to destroy a company over a $16 postage fee.
This kind of vindictive behaviour reveals an acute lack of empathy which, usually culminates with some significant level of sociopathic malevolence.
You really do need to consider very carefully, your perception of reality.

So, I check out of the forums for a couple of days- to do some, like, real life stuff. I come back and this thread is 3 pages long and there’s a free shipping offer, but it’s expired. I had no intention of ordering anything before I saw the offer, and don’t think it would have spurred me to order anything. But, I missed the free shipping window. NOW I’M PISSED!!!
I normally wouldn't jump into a necro thread and contribute to the problem, but this comment is so damn good that it deserves to be quoted a week after it was originally posted.
It was only free shipping if you actually bought something. If you didn’t buy something then stop being mad!
So the real question is
Area forty one- nine , area four one nine or area four nineteen?
You should start a thread about it
Missed this. Would have bought a shirt just to say BTDT after this thread.
(I've only bought a few mags from the 3 digit numbered company in the Area between 418 and 420 but Craig answered an email personally when I had a question so g2g in my book.)

Some cuntstomers are simply not worth having.
If I owned Area 419 I'd tell my IT guy to make a big dildo appear on your screen every time you tried to access the company website
About the only benos forum policy that makes sense is the one where you get the banhammer for shitting on industry vendors in public.
I wish it were so here.

Craig gave you and everyone else free shipping after you cried like a bitch for an order you didn't place.
Eat a dick.
your ability to read and comprehend ironically is the same as the name of the press

The issue, since you started this thread is the reason for the above mentioned quote.
Just because someone or something "pisses you off" doesn't give you the moral fortitude to denigrate a person or company on a public forum. If they ripped you off for thousands of $$ or something significant, I think most would understand but, the situation as you described it simply doesn't justify your complete lack of personal control. From your own account, when you couldn't contact the company in your time frame, your next action was to take your untempered anger to a public forum where you applied your "feelings" in the pursuit of a vindictive outburst obviously designed to do as much damage as you could bring to bear.
It isn't that myself or others don't appreciate the gist of your argument, it is the way you went about venting your dissatisfaction for no other reason than you were "pissed off" & you had to get back at them.
I get "pissed off" all the time but, I don't resort to this kind of behaviour in order to satisfy a vindictive attitude brought about by a complete lack of perspective of the situation.
You are not the only one who has to deal with situations that we find annoying but, it's part of life & everybody should force themselves to gather & take control of their emotions in order to deal with the situation in it's perspective.
The way you "REACTED" to this situation is not unlike a case of "road-rage" whereby you took the events personally then proceeded to ensure that the offending party pay a penalty because you chose to become angry.
Once you realize that anger is a "CHOICE" & not some set of absolute conditions which you have no control over, you will find yourself in a far better position to control your actions instead of the circumstances controlling you.
Craig came on here and clarified everything, no hard feelings. That last post was not intended to be a swipe at them, but for some of you homers on here that acted like it was impossible to ship the rail and press and the same time.
No problems Zback.
We really all have to be very careful & considerate about what we post though. Remember, this is a public forum & stuff we say here can & does come up in a Google search.
Anyhow, I hope you're happy with the press & remember, anger is a choice & life's just too short to let all the shit that comes our way decide our little view of the world.
All the best...
OMG. This thread is epic. It should be a sticky. I’m not gonna shame you any more than you already have done to yourself.
Hey area419: please hurry up and restock the “modular shell holder system”. Please.

It was impossible, because the manufacturer said it wasn’t gonna happen. Just because YOU believe it could have doesn’t make it so.

This is a weird Hide bit - and I never really understood the comment until someone who listens to the podcast explained. We are Area Four One Nine, because that's the area code here, like in our phone numbers. Apparently at some point, Frank in a podcast or video called us Area Four Nineteen - which is done a lot. Someone - and I later found out it was a customer who lives in our area - corrected him and explained the number in a message. Then Frank, ever the
There's a thought that it offends or excites us or whatever, but it's not a deal here lol - was not one of us that called in a rage or some weird shit. In reality we are one of only a few manufacturers of any size that come around here. If we were mad about a terribly common name mis-pronunciation, that probably wouldn't be the case.
Got my Zero press and love it. I actually look forward to reloading now. I ordered the wrong case holder and a new one was sent before the return label was even sent. Quick question for Craig. I need a rail, can i send in the box from the zero and have you ship me a rail in it?
