A company should not charge your credit card when they know they can not ship your order. As a matter of fact, they should have contacted the buyer before they ship a product 2 months later. Unless the buyer specifically said to ship back orders. And that does not sound like the case. My guess is they just did not want to loose an order. Thanks for the heads up. I was just getting ready to order one, but was torn between the Minaska and the FoxPro. Your post made up my mind. Tom.
