GaugedFreak Posted February 10, 2009 Share Posted February 10, 2009 I just ordered a Bushnell Trophy 1x32 from them.. I ordered it late last night, and the status page is saying that it has shipping today. Waiting for the tracking number. I'll let you know how it goes. If it ships today, hopefully I'll get it by the end of the week since it's coming from IL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gunKnut Posted February 10, 2009 Share Posted February 10, 2009 I've place a few orders with them in the last year and have had great luck with them every time. All but one time the items were shipped right away. The one time i ordered a case and they emailed me to tell me that it was on backorder for 4-6 weeks I emailed them back to cancel the order and they did and i received a refund right away.

It's a Demo model, but the only place that shows signs of wear is on the mounting base. It turns on and works. Can't wait to test it out. I give a big thumbs up to OP.com.

Carne Frio Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 If so, tell me your experience, both + and -, thanks guys. It looks like I am in the middle of a dust up with them, currently. I ordered on 4 Feb, charged my card on 4 Feb, and "verified" my order on 4 Feb. They also stated that I would soon get a tracking number (from a drop ship). Many days later I e-mailed them asking what was the status: No order and no tracking number. It's now nine days later and all I ever get back from them is the computer generated message thanking me for my order and that I will soon get the tracking number and my order shortly. Still no order and no tracking number. SO, yes I have ordered from Optics Planet. They S U C K ! Would I recommend them to anyone ? Hell no ! They are like JOEKEN ! I will re-post when and if I get my order or the charge back on credit card. I'm thinking it's a toss-up between lousy service or fraud: we shall see.

GaugedFreak Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 Can you log onto the webpage and see your order? I didn't get a shipped message with a tracking number until a day after the scope arrived, but it said it was shipped on the order status page. Sorry you had a bad deal with them, that really sucks.

Yes, I did that and it showed items shipped on 4 Feb. They also have a way to contact them but you need to provided a verification code, which does not work. The credit card people can deal with them, then I'll order from addax or swafa. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GaugedFreak Posted February 14, 2009 Share Posted February 14, 2009 Well good luck however you go with it. I just know from my experience that I got the product before I ever got a tracking number. It took 3 days and I'm two states away. Hopefully you get everything worked out though. Keep us posted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

loudandlow Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 I ordered a laser, they emailed me and said they actually didn't have it in stock and said it would be a week. I said I would not have ordered had the website said they were out of stock. Got an email back saying the payment had been refunded, they were sorry it happened, and looked forward to our next transaction. Didn't expect that!!

[/ FOLLOW-UP: I was informed, 10 days after the order, that the items had been on backorder and that they would cancel the charge to my card. I chose to keep the order and was yesterday informed that the items had shipped. Except for the very real communication problem, I would have to say "YES": I would recommend them and will shop there again. I have never found anyplace with better prices. I also suggest that purchasers call and confirm "instock" prior to ordering. The price on the items had gone up by $20, after I placed the order and they honored the original price, which was nice. So, they DON'T S U C K. I hope that helps out anyone who might shop there in the future. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michm4 Posted March 22, 2009 Share Posted March 22, 2009 I have ordered from them and even asked them to match prices without a problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
louie Posted March 22, 2009 Share Posted March 22, 2009 Slow arse shipping on my in stock order. Uh huh. Ditto over here on my Bushnell Spotter and lens. Decent prices, wide selection, although inventory is iffy at times. 8 out of 10, I s'pose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Postquam Posted March 25, 2009 Share Posted March 25, 2009 I've bought two PDP3s from them in the past few months, in addition to a Bushnell Speed Gun. Great prices, free shipping, no taxes, and shipping was quick! Unless one just MUST use Rambo-looking scopes, etc., the PDP3 scope @ opticsplanet @ around $85, shipped, is a great buy.
