Hey guys, I made my first order from Botach last Monday and so far...am a little frustrated with them.
I ordered 3 magazines and they still haven't shipped out. I called yesterday and they couldn't tell me why the order hasn't shipped yet but it should be sent out in the next 2-3 business days. Is this pretty common for them or is this an isolated incident? First world problems galore but it's been a long time since I've had a business not ship out an in stock item within a day or two.

Common. There's a thread around here. You get what they feel like putting in the box when they feel like it. Even if you ordered something else.

Stopped reading after "Botach". :D

I've ordered a couple things from them . . . never anything where I am all that concerned about delivery time. But they have a pretty well-earned reputation for not having the greatest CS, stocking or delivery practices--historically speaking--on another board I frequent.

I had to threaten a chargeback to get their CS to agree to send me a part they didn't put in the box.

Total shitbags.

Never do business with Botach....NEVER. Botach's failings are well documented.

Cheap prices. (I've never bought anything from them.)

Use Lanbos if you want decent prices and rocket fast shipping. Lanbos makes amazon look slow.

Ya live and ya learn, I guess. They had the best price I could find on M&P 40 magazines when shipping was taken into account. I should have spent the few extra dollars and went with Natchez. I'll chalk this one up to a learning experience and hope my order arrives correctly.

Yeah...about half the internet is dedicated to bitching about Botach.

Having said that, I've placed 2 orders from them in the past...like a decade ago. Didn't have an issue either time.

Well, I called again today just to see if there was any news. The person I talked to said that the order had finally been sent over to the shipping department and they were "looking for" the items in my order and I should see tracking within the next few days. This is definitely the last time I order from them.

Botach is a mystery to me.

I took a chance on a 10 pack of PMags (just before the mag ban took effect). They were shipped in three days and I think I had them exactly a week after placing the order.

Then I go on forums and hear of people ordering commonly available things and it takes months. It's like there's a random number generator that assigns shipping times to orders.
