Another problem with Optics Planet/DVOR. Placed order for Daniel Defense upper. Before placing order checked for availability and it said would ship in 6-10 days. Placed order. By the end of the day they changed status to shipping mid-April.
But wait, there's more. Ordered Trijicon MRO red dot magnifier from DVOR (division of Optics Planet). Almost immediately after placing order realized magnifier does not work with standard Trijicon MRO red dot, only the HD version (which retails for approx. $1000). Listing on DVOR really didn't make this clear. I contacted DVOR within 5 minutes of placing order to cancel (using chat feature). Was told, you can't cancel today because the order isn't in our system, you need to follow up tomorrow.
First thing this morning receive notice that they're preparing to ship the item. Contact them through e-mail (can't get on chat feature and they're not open yet to call on phone) and again request that they cancel the order.
An hour later receive another e-mail that item has shipped. Call them on the telephone (call center is now open). Sit on hold for 15 minutes and then the call is dropped.
Send them another e-mail saying please cancel order.
We'll see what happens, but this is obviously pretty frustrating.
On a related note - WTF is wrong with Trijicon that they make a magnifier for their red MRO dot that doesn't work with their standard MRO red dot, only an outrageously expensive HD version. And for that matter, who pays $1000 for a red dot?
