Frustrated with Bergara !!!!!!!!!!!!
- Thread starter AZHUNT1121
- Start date
I called all the dealerships to buy a new C8 Corvette but nobody has one. The entire 2020 production year is sold out. What a terrible business model!
Honestly, I appreciate that we can't always get what we want when we want it. Gives us time to look at other options and evaluate whether we really want to commit. I also think a business that produces a limited run or controls distribution is going to be better off through ups and downs in the economy. Tooling up to meet initial sales demand is how you go broke.

Can I suggest everyone step back a minute and cool off some

It seems to me that you got your answer, when do they plan to have them available? They don't plan to.
What was this thread intended to do other than bitch?

As others have said, Bergara has no reason to tell you how many of anything they ship to distros, or when they plan to do it.
It's near the end of the calendar year, and past the time when most hunting gear is sold, so everyone has intentionally allowed inventory to dwindle to avoid paying tax on it (or they are doing so). It's not unheard of for some to allow shipping containers to sit unopened until after July 1, so that the don't have to count the contents in inventory.
And the way distributor sales work in the gun industry, especially with scarce or popular items, you're not likely to get a straight answer, especially if you're not an actual customer.

Early nomination for a soon to be classic SH thread?

OP - A little birdie told me that they'll start shipping around 04/01/2020.
Terribly sorry for the treatment you've received in this thread. We're not ALL good shooters around here.

QuickNDrity thank you very much for the information and nice response, I appreciate it.
Yes it is. They don't give a fuck who you are and obviously you don't have the pull you think you do.
LOL
Back in my firearms industry days, before retirement, I was there to have to deal with the election of the Kenyan twice and Sandy Hook. All created panic buying; all created both good and bad times for every level of the industry. As someone who worked closely with dealers, distributors I dealt with the sentiments expressed by @AZHUNT1121 almost on a daily basis. Our factory was turning out all the product they could and I was TOLD by many customers that we should just buy more machinery and make more guns to meet demand. It's hard to smile and say something like "sir, if we did do that it would take about two years to get the machines in place and the extra people trained to run them". One dealer, from CA no less, showed up at my booth at a distributor buying show with an order for 1,000 AR-15 lowers. Said he had "a note from CA DOJ' that said he was authorized to legally build them. Wanted to know just how fast I could get them shipped. It was involuntary but I could not hold back a laughing fit that al most made me pee my pants. When I got under control I simply said "sir, we build AR-15 rifles and I currently have orders for about $75 million worth. They all want them now and I should be able to provide your order in about two years".
I completely disagree with sentiment here. The first part of the post is of no use. If Bergara stopped making other calibers to turn full focus on 300 PRC then there would be massive complaints about why the other desirable calibers were so hard to find. We held proprietary the info on production figures, not because we didn't want customers to know, because we didn't want our competition to know. Part two of the OP post, IMO, should have been part one. What else should I look at in 300PRC? OP should understand this is a "tough-guy" forum (sarcasm) and tough talk is to be expected.

Oh shit, the cat is looking around...….for prey
Maybe he does. Sounds like his sphincter could dechrome a chromed ball hitch.
OP. Maybe Bergara’s aware of your anger management issues and is just doing what’s right.

You’re the most childish, defensive asshat I’ve seen here in a long time. The manufacturer and distributors don’t owe you shit! When everyone in the thread is on the same page, EXCEPT YOU, that is a clue.
You work for a company. You know exactly when all of your customers will receive the parts they’ve ordered, the second they order them? Because that’s near impossible.
I work for a very prominent machine tool builder, the likes of which your company may employ, or wish they could, and I can guarantee you, that isn’t how it works, unless something is a stock item and in inventory. How many items does your company make that are stocked in inventory?
I promise you, you have no idea how long something is going to take to be delivered from the minute it’s ordered.

Glad you noticed, lol...Yes, he’s a text book example of what not to do and how not to do it, especially if you’ve just got here and still have that “new plastic” smell about you.
At best, he’s guilty of not having a sense of humor.
Could you imagine if the OP got one of those damaged Arken scopes?
For the most part.............your point ?
Meow.
3, 2, 1..............
Jimmy, I think we gots us here a new candidate for possible induction into the "Paparocks" hall of fame.

Oh, hell yizzes. With or without Genital Wart Device?
As others have stated, you are an entitled little bitch.
A few years back when the AR market went ape shit, there was a large group of people who were dumbfounded at a year+ wait for an gun. (my cousin waited 2 years, it has never been out of the box). I heard a large amount of "they need to up production".
My response was "no, the bubble will burst. You should not have waited until a ban was on the block"
Now look at the AR market. After the PRC bubble burst what will Bergara do will all the added production capacity they accuired to make you happy?
People like you have no fucking clue how business works.
someone mixed their preworkout with vodka. thats what
No need to imagine, turns out the Hide had a Predator drone flying over top his cubicle while all this was going on.
Heres some of the downloaded footage:
Maybe we need a new medal for butthurt, hystrionic dissatisfaction with kit and sticks? Maybe we call it "The Scratched Nightforce"?
It'll need to have an engraving of a sperm mount on it somewhere............
Way too many Verucas loose in the Hide recently.
