    Botach can be a hit or miss. I bought numberous things from them in the past at great prices, but the last time I bought from them was a disappointment. Basically the item I bought wasn't in stock, and when I tried to replace the order, the replacements aren't in stock either (their inventory system sucks), the whole ordeal dragged on for 2 months.

    Eventually they did ship part of the replacement, but the refund for the difference still hasn't shown up on my CC yet.

    If you order a popular item from them, make sure you use their stock form to check inventory first, and save yourself the grieve.

    If you really want it, call Botach and make sure they have it in stock first.

    I assume they all ship this way, but I was thrown off by this too.

    They get negative word because ordering from them is the same as spinning a roulette wheel, not because they aren't a site sponsor. They would not be asked to be such, and would be refused if they asked for the very reasons you mention.

    I'd very much enjoy an example of any member metaphorically burned in effigy for posting a legitimate gripe about ANY vendor...after having first contacted them and giving them the opportunity to make things right or screw it up even more, prior to posting about it, as the site rules and common decency specify.

    I'd particularly enjoy an example of any mod or staff member that went Vlad the Impaler on a member that had a gripe about BoCrap's spotty-at-best delivery and customer service record and frequent lack of stock......given that that's the rule and not the exception.

    Enlighten me via PM. Typing out your rear end any more than you already have is best done out of the public eye.

    L: What?!

    what were you saying about this?

    that they could never be a vendor.
    that the vendors on here are better (I do not doubt they are)
    that botac should not be bad mouthed.

    I do not understand your eloquently worded response.
    PM me

    I got that same deal. Items came quickly. I did call to ask if it was actually in stock first, though.

    Hambone, yes, they're a vendor, that's not the question. They're not a site sponsor. Also not the question.

    The idea that an M4C member would be pinged for floating a legitimate gripe about ANY vendor, site sponsor or not, is pretty unsupportable. That any member of M4C would catch a crapstorm for a legitimate gripe about a vendor that isn't a site sponsor because they're not a site sponsor is preposterous.

    Botach is inconsistent as hell in terms of stocking, delivering, and in terms of how they deal with customers (specifically lack of notifications RE: backorders), which is not to say that there aren't folks who have had nothing but positive experiences with them. There are, and more power to them.

    The OP, if he orders from Botach, is likely to receive what he wants, and at the price quoted.....eventually.

    I strongly suggest that peruse the following link, especially before you decide to hit Submit Reply on yet another flippant post to a Moderator, STAFF, Industry Professional, or Subject Matter Expert, particularly when presuming to give directives to them.

    Flippant.. LOL have not heard that since my 5th grade teacher some time ago. Either way Santo, I was griping about them the same as anyone. 9 weeks for a Magpul grip "in-stock"

    If yo wanna flex your internet moderation muscles and M4 prowess and ban me, I guess you live in some F**KED up country that isn't America.

    SUBMIT REPLY.

    hope someone with a sense of humor reads this..
