ASAT problems
 

I know this thread is bound to attract Ausie-guy in a few seconds but I am going to say this anyway. No matter how good your product is, if you can' t ship it in a timely manner, you are going to make people mad. I ordered my ASAT a couple of weeks ago. It was on backorder. Fine. It was supposed to ship by now. I get a call today to inform me that it will be another 3 weeks before it ships [:o] Are you kidding me? What season is it? I will tell you waht season it is. Hunting season. So much for my Halloween costume[:' (]

OK Northern

Who called you?
I just tried to call Chuck but I dont think he is back from Colorado yet.

If you can either pm or email me your details I will look into it first thing tomorrow and try and get you some answers.

Better yet what size did you order?
If you ordered a large then email me your address and I will send you my 3d suit to use untill yours turns up then just return mine.

RE: ASAT problems
 

See, I knew you had a buzzer!

BUZZZZZ..

" What' s that?" " Oh no, a hunter is talking about ASAT." [:o] " Quick! To the Forum!" ;)[&:]

The nice woman that call me was named Karen. I know it isn' t her fault but I so wanted to just blame whoever was on the other end of the phone. It just wan' t something I wanted to hear. Seriously, I will not die or anything but I am bummed. Maybe it is because I ordewred a meduim. I would have ordered a small but they don' t sell one. Maybe I should just start eating more and order a large.

RE: ASAT problems
 

Holy moly! Offering the camo right off his own back. I knew this forum was full of good people.

RE: ASAT problems
 

A buddy of mine brought a medium for his wife I will call him in the morning and see if I can borrow it and loan it to you till yours comes in.

But I will be checking with Chuck to find out whats going on as I am waiting for a shipment to come here as well.

I was on the understanding that they would have been ready last week.

RE: ASAT problems
 

Like I said thanks for the effort. I don' t need to take anyone' s camo. I can wait. I was just really hoping it would have at least shipped by now. I have not heard one person that owns ASAT complain about it. Oh well, sometimes poop happens. I am sure if they could ship them any faster they would. If you do find out anything from them please pass it along.




Smart Hunters buy their ASAT before season starts so they don' t have to whine about not having it.

RE: ASAT problems
 

Will do and remember the offer is on the table;)

RE: ASAT problems
 

NorthernNM,

Don' t feel bad. I ordered a 2XL leafy outfit from them last Tuesday and selected the " 2 day delivery" option. It did not arrive before the weekend and I had a message on the answering machine yesterday from Karen that they were currently out of stock on the 2XL' s and that it would be about 2 to 3 weeks before they could put together another order.

I am somewhat disappointed as well but I am going to give her a ring later today to see if I can just order an XL instead.

RE: ASAT problems
 

Thanks, PABowhntr. You just saved me a phone call. :D I was going to call today and see what the availability of a 2XL suit would be. I' m contemplating ordering one on Friday.

RE: ASAT problems
 

Sounds like they took all the profits from the last load and instead of buying more fabric... they bought hunts in Colorado.:(:eek:[:o] Someone should be tending to business and not so much getting trendy pictures of a kill with the camo pattern. As I understand the events that have transpired in the past couple weeks.... they' re out of small/regular, XL and XXL at least. Well, that doesn' t leave much. Northern you' re right, hunting season IS hunting season. If they can' t deliver the goods during the scheduled time frame within a reasonable time frame... I' d cancel the order. Who needs leafy camo when you' re watching March Madness?

RE: ASAT problems
 

Thanks for the heads up I am going to order from skyline. Cabelas had the same problem with back order but that was late August and I am in my early Predator Camo that was back ordered and still shipped timely!

RE: ASAT problems
 

Man, you guys are bumming me out. I just ordered an XL leafy combo last night and asked for the 2 day delivery also, sure that it would be here by this weekend. I have been busted by the same doe 4-5 times this year and am itching to turn the tables on her. We have until Nov. 15 for our Bow season and the rut is ready to get cranking here, or has already.

Ausie-Guy, please tell us that the shipment came in and they can fill their orders...

I know it ain' t your fault, just hoping for the best. We' ll see what happens. Worst case scenario, I have an awesome outfit for next year, or the late season if I don' t get one before then. :-)

RE: ASAT problems
 

David, I did think about canceling the order but I really would like to try ASAT camo. Unfortunately there is only one place in the world selling it and it seems to be kind of tough getting it out of them. If nothing else, the bow season runs through December 31 here in Minnesota. So even if they have to hand stitch my suit I should have it before season ends. Guess I will see how it blends into snow... :(

RE: ASAT problems
 

I hope I don' t get too much heat from this, but the way I see it is, why would anyone wait until hunting season is underway before ordering their camo (or any equipment for that matter)? This should have been done in March or April. You can' t fault companies that run out of stuff because everyone waits until the last minute.

RE: ASAT problems
 

Danny, don' t be silly. Of course we can blame the company. I would hope we wouldn' t blame them too much but they certainly have to take the blame in part. To be honest I have only heard of ASAT on this board. I have never seen anyone wearing it. Ever. It seems only recently that it has a lot of people around here have been talking it up. Call me ignorant if you want but if you sold hunting supplies (camo or ammo), when is your biggest selling time? Hunting season. Yes, I should have ordered sooner, but we are talking about backorder times of 5 weeks. I am not angry at ASAT. I am happy that as a small business they are doing well selling a product that they are willing to stand behind. My hunting season isn' t going to fall apart if I don' t get my ASAT. I already took a great buck using some of that crappy Realtree HD. I am just excited at the thought of anything that can really change the way I hunt for the better. ASAT could that thing. Of course I want it right now!

RE: ASAT problems
 

Danny, I have to echo Northern here, I knew nothing about ASAT until 2-3 weeks ago, through this site. I' m not mad at ASAT- yet ;)! Heck, I only ordered it last night at 8:00 PM :D

RE: ASAT problems
 

Does anyone know if they have the BIG sizes in stock the 3/4xls?

RE: ASAT problems
 

LOL Appears the crappy Realtree HD worked pretty good!

Okay, I can understand if you' re just hearing about it. But if I' m not mistaken, Jim has had that Camo out for at least 10 years. I may be mistaken, but isn' t it large irregular blocks of either brown/tan with limb looking additions for the fall, or with green for spring? I saw that stuff in Bowhunter magazine many years ago. I' m surprised it' s not more popular.

Good luck, hope you get it soon. Back then, they did have a snow ASAT too! :D

RE: ASAT problems
 

Go ahead and order some Predator. It really is not a compromise. Seems like this board has been trying to sell alot of ASAT recently!
