How about no more of this....
<span style="font-style: italic">"I'd like to complain about the people complaining about all the complaining....blah, blah, blah...."</span>

And more of.....
<span style="font-style: italic">What a scope! It's awesome! I ordered it on May XX at X:XXpm and just got it this morning! Thanks again Frank and SWFA, wish I had bought another one at the special price!</span>

Since the orders are being shipped by date received. What date are we up to on shipped orders?

Not sure if the system is that cut and dry over at SWFA. But if a running tally of orders up to this date have been processed thread was going. It would possibly keep some of the folks around here from posting the typical, "Where's my scope" hate mail.

Figured I'd throw my two Lincolns out there.

Re: SnipersHide/SWFA SS HD 5-20x50 GroupBuy

Anyone ever come up with the complete number of scopes ordered under the group buy? Just think of the coin SWFA is pulling....

That much more money to be put into the SS line and keep on making the SS Super Sweet! If they moved 1000 scopes for the buy thats a cool million they have to move in product. Give them time, I have a feeling its worth every penny!

Wow, knew it was still around the beginning, but didn't realize it was still on day one. Guess I need to grab the survival gear and start digging in. Looks like it's going to be a long winter.

Re: SnipersHide/SWFA SS HD 5-20x50 GroupBuy

Ill throw a number out there

I put money on them selling 2-4 thousand. Its all speculation, but the more they sell, the more inclined they are to offering us new, better products at better prices.

Something closer to 20oz with close to 20x mag is perfect for me, but for now I have to lug 10oz extra! Oh well!

Re: SnipersHide/SWFA SS HD 5-20x50 GroupBuy

I didn't order until the 2nd to last day of the deal. I wonder when mine will come?!?! Hmmm... Guess it's a good thing I already have an older SS on the rifle I bought it for to hold me over until it does

Thanks for everything LL and SWFA!

Got my scope. Ordered about 10 seconds after fb hit 5000 likes. After some BS from my bank about my cc I got the payment worked out and the scope was shipped.

Initial impressions are all positive.

Do you have any other "top" end scopes to compare it to?

 

[untouchable13]

Re: SnipersHide/SWFA SS HD 5-20x50 GroupBuy

I received my SS 5-20HD and gentlemen and whiners, it is worth the wait. Very solid, high clarity, exceptional scope. You will not be disappointed. But if you are tired of waiting I suggest you take 2-3 grand and buy a scope you don't have to wait for.

Thanks SWFA for a excellent product at a stellar price. And LL thank you for your efforts to put this opportunity in place.

Well it looks like I'll have to take my SS 10x HD to my class with Tom Sarver next week. I really was hoping for the 5-20x to get here so I could have put it through its paces at a 1000yd range but at least I have a scope

I just got my SS 3-9 to hold me over until the 5-20 comes.

Awesome scope BTW, sure beats my Nikon M223 BDC.

For those checking their mailbox everyday; try treating this like a stamp item. Order and forget. Then you get that nice email/phone call saying it's ready. Get to be exited all over again. Just my .02.

Hmmm,
My status has been "back order" for quite a while now
Order was placed on 5/24.
I don't remember what status it was prior to "back order"

Not good or bad it's just SWFA's system letting you know they don't have any of the ordered items in stock. How many days did it take from the day you ordered to the day you got the back order email?

Just curious to see how bogged down their system is. I'm pretty sure when business is running at a normal pace over @ SWFA they would get the back order email out the same day. I know it took a few days for me to get mine and I ordered on 04june, from what I heard the last three days were the busiest.

Really hope they start getting these out in the next few months. Cause I have a fever and the only cure is a SWFA SS 5-20x50mm HD!

Re: SnipersHide/SWFA SS HD 5-20x50 GroupBuy


I don't think they are bogged down at all. They are just back ordered on the 5x20. When the scopes get there they will probably ship very quickly.


I called a couple days ago and ordered a SS 10xHDMQ and it went out that day. Nothing is bogged down, but their supply of SS 5X20s.

I wasn't referring to the company being bogged down, just the system when all the ordering was going on.

Sorry, the deal ended a while back. It ran for 30 days and is gone forever.

Since it ended we are getting a very large amount of calls, PM's and e-mails asking if they can get the Group Buy price still and we have to regretfully inform them all that the deal is over and no exceptions can be made to reactivate the Group Buy price.

On another note we are still chugging along on orders and I think we might make it out of the first days orders very soon.

The group buy is over. Period. It will not happen again. I thought Chris was pretty clear with his post 4 up from yours.
