Don't order a gun from Cheaper than Dirt, Unless you want to WAIT

Alright here is the deal. I ordered a Marlin 336 from cheaper than dirt, I looked around and they had the best price. I follow the instructions to the letter, I put it in my shopping cart and checkout. Then I drove to my local ffl dealer and he sent all the information in an email. This was done on Thursday 12/8. The warehouse received the information at 2:11 pm their time. On Friday I looked at my order and saw it was still being processed at the warehouse. I called them, the women I talked to told that my gun had shipped out it just took the system 24 hours to update. I confirmed this with her 2 more times and I was very pleased. On Saturday I look and the order still says being processed at our warehouse. Again I call and talk to a rude women on the phone who informed me that it would ship out Monday. I ask her about what I had been told be for and she feed me some bs. On Monday morning It still has not shipped out, I send them and email explaining the issue. Their email was not an apology, it was just an excuse about how the warehouse was busy, but that it would ship today (Monday). Now it is Tuesday, My gun has still not shipped.

The bottom line is this, I don't mind waiting 5 or 6 days for something. Lots of reviews on cheaper than dirt said that they received their guns in 3 to 4 days. But I have never had to wait 7 or more days for a product from the internet, even those from Canada. I had a day off work on Thursday and wanted to shoot it, but now that is a bust. AND I STILL HAVE NOT RECEIVED EVEN AN APOLOGY.

cancel your order, give business to another company. I never had a problem with orders from them, I never ordered a gun from them, not worth it, with the strict laws here in NJ. I'm having a problem with Cabela's with a firearm, Remington 11-87 Sportsman Synthetic Deer Shotgun in 20ga. they claim they can't get it, but other places have them, only reason I'm want to go thru Cabelas is the fact I have more then 1/2 the money in gift cards

I understand your frustration. You have to remember it's Christmas time and they are probably up to their eyes in orders. I'm sure you'd get fast service other times of the year. There's no excuse for rudeness I'd have to tell them to shove that order.

Or maybe they are selling guns they don't have in stock and have to wait till the factory or distributor ships to them.
