View Full Version : Palmetto State - I'm DONE BABY!
Ordered 5 boxes of Fed 22 TGT at $12/box last month and was excited - what a deal! They shipped .224 Valkyrie - 4 boxes. I called and they let me return the Valkyrie. I asked if they were shipping the .22 - they said yes. They WAITED till they got my return, seemed to wait another 2 weeks then just shipped me ONE BOX of 22 at $20. REALLY? Their op is a fraud. I'm DONE. I started with the years ago with good 5.56 ammo. No more.
I gave up on those jokers as well. It's better to pay a bit more to SGAmmo and have exactly what you ordered on your doorstep in 3 days than to ass around with PSA to save a few bucks.

Their shipping is,,, erratic to say the least.

I only ever order from them if it's going to save me hundreds, and don't care if it arrives the same month I order or not. You're definitely not buying PSA for their customer service! LOL
That sucks. I've ordered ammo from them at least a dozen times, and have never had an issue, but that sounds frustrating. They should throw you a gift card or something at that point

Same here, never had an issue other than slow shipping.

I certainly don't order very much from them, but I've never had a problem.
Maybe you just got unlucky with a couple of idiots that shouldn't have a job there?
In defense of PSA... They don't make any claims about "express" shipping, and their prices are sometimes irresistable.
I've never had a problem with an order from them (having ordered 8-10 times from them).

That's why I said 'erratic'. Sometimes things show up as if they shipped the same day. Other times in can be a couple of weeks. They packed some 9mm loose ammo in a 1000 round 'box' that was barely held together and was round when it got to me. One more truck ride and it would have been 9mm everywhere.
I agree on their pricing and some deals. They get me in the stupid mode like the old CDNN would. Almost had myself talked into a SA revolver in 22lr the other week for silly sake.
The industry is better because they are around, but they aren't on my cookie and card list this year.
First and last time I ordered was years ago. Ordered some ammo. Don't remember how long the shipping took but I actually forgot I ordered it. I know they didn't say anything about express shipping but they also didn't mention it would be delivered on foot.
I still get their emails. Honestly when shipping is factored in I don't see any deals I can't find locally for about three same price
I’ve bought several boxes of .223 and 9mm from them over the years, usually during the times when they offered free shipping, which they would do every so often. Although as a rule they don’t fill the orders particularly fast, the only order screwup they ever imposed on me is the time they sent me an extra 1000-round box of .223 and then couldn’t come up with a way for me to send it back. We wrestled around with that problem for awhile after I refused their request to return it at my expense, then they ultimately lost interest.
I’ve ordered many things from them over the years with no problems. But, I’ve never ordered ammo, optics, or anything that I wanted to receive quickly.

I just bought FGMM .308 at 85¢/round, shipped...
I live in the middle of nowhere, so it's almost always mail-order ammo for me. (Or, since Prop 65, I'm having ammo shipped to friends/family out of state.)
Several years of ordering..no issues.

I've been ordering from them for I think about ten years. The first thing that I got was several cases of new production non-corrosive 7.62x54R. This was back when the surplus corrosive was super cheap, so it have the effect of keeping the new production prices down. Over the years I purchased a ton of stuff from them. They have screwed up several orders, but always made it right after multiple phone calls and time waiting on hold. Two screw-ups come immediately to mind. The first is when I ordered multiple cases of Serbian or Croatian AK mags from them. There were 21 in a case. Keep in mind that I'm in Georgia and they're in South Carolina, so it's not like they had far to go. The factory boxes that the mags were packed in were super thin and cheap, definitely not worthy of the UPS or FedEx monkeys. They showed up in the original factory boxes. Several were missing magazines and several other cases had damaged magazines inside. They eventually made it right after tons of calls, time on hold, returns and calls back to get the $$$ refunded to my credit card. The second major screw up was when I ordered new ammo cans from them. You'd think that there would be some sort of token effort made at protecting them during transit. Nope. They were all just chunked loose in very large boxes. By the time they arrived at my house, they looked like surplus ammo cans. Several were dented. Again, it took calls, waiting on hold, returns and calls back to get the $$$ refunded to my credit card.
A few weeks ago I purchased a PSA AR10 upper half and lower half from them. The upper half was sent directly to me and the lower half was sent to my dealer. All seemed well until I slapped them together. There's a 2mm gap between the two at the rear of the upper receiver and the rattle/looseness between the upper and lower is literally worse by far than I've ever seen on any AR type rifle. To make a long story short, I returned the rifle to them for repair. I received it back a little over a week later. Nothing was done to it and there was no explanation in the box. I called and was told that it fired ok and met PSA quality standards. Of course my reply was that I didn't know that PSA had quality standards that were below normal industry standards. I was told that I could send back the upper half, but not the lower half since it was already transferred to me. I responded that does me no good because I can't shoot half a rifle. Eventually I told them that if they don't do the right thing and take the lower half back too, then I won't buy from them again. They replied that they wouldn't. They will lose far more in profit from me than they gained by sticking me with a $200 lower half, but I get the impression that they really don't care.
I ordered 200rds of Sig .300BLK, a Holosun RDS, an AR pistol kit and a stripped lower receiver on 11/19. The Sig ammo and Holosun arrived yesterday. The kit will arrive today (allegedly) as will the lower to my FFL. They are definitely the slow boat from China outfit! LOL
I just bought FGMM .308 at 85¢/round, shipped...
Update: I placed that order Nov. 27th. I just received an update from PSA that they finally created a mailing label (two weeks later).
Really, I won't use/need the ammo 'til January 7th, so I'm not worried, but still...
Want to say that PSA did rectify my order and I got what I paid for. Good follow up in the end.
