Well decided to buy a few assorted AR mags for myself and Nephew, ordered two 5rd and a package of Ten 30rd mags from WHOLESALE MAGS, got notice of Shipped back 2nd of Feb, and received ONE 30 rd. Came in a smaller USPS ENVELOPE Package where I was not expecting that, opened to find that Single Mag so wrote to find out of Rest Of Order. NO Response, sent in BAD Review DO NOT USE and Still NO Response. Is no phone number, so just putting it out to my contact's elsewhere DO NOT USE these people, Evidently Scammers or just do not give a damn that Cheated anyone.

I sure hope you get your money back. I buy mine from Palmetto state Armory and have very good luck with them.

hmm.. wonder if your FEDS should be involved ? Interstate transaction, I assume Internet ordering/ credit card transfer of funds, USPS was involved, possibly those missing rounds went to Russia ?? or a local deep terrorist cell ??
If you paid in full and only got partial without written explanaition thatd be fraud ??

maybe they were shipped on FED EX? and you know how many accidents they have been in plus the dude that threw alot of the boxes in that ravine! it's possible they shipped the one by USPS cuz maybe your original package was damaged and leaked? the reason i am saying this is because it happened to me once.

Luckily SHB is a Computer Aficionado, he did some spot checks his way and within a few minutes had them Nailed to a Board. Thru the AR clubs on line he found this company runs under a few aliases, they get orders ship one or a alternate to have a shipped confirmation to try to flimflam the buyer and attempt to thwart the courts, Defined SCAM. Won't work here as sent USPS, in a Soft Side package where that has a Weight against the tracking number. The package and product weighed UNDER a lb.
Got with the CC company we have and they are claiming fraud or Failure to Provide Ordered Product, I DID Receive ONE so they deducted from the money owed BACK. Should have the CC Credit on my next statement.

sure glad you're getting your money back ! With the CC involved, as well as USPS, hopefully they will get the SOB ! Not having a phone number would be a 'red flag' for me....
you should post the complete url (website) so others KNOW who it is.

The past year or so has seen an explosion of fraudulent online operations scamming the shooting world. The most common I know of is for primers. I can remember when nobody had anything, and I was searching and found a site based out of NY that had it all. If you wanted primers.....they had them. Powders......they had them.......and at best prices going. You could put them in your cart and it would accept payment. That alone set off alarms, so stopped there. Did some checking and sure enough......a scam.
Now more than ever, if it seems too good to be true.......it probably is.

If you go on Facebook, you'll see a LOT of ads that have things SO cheap you can't resist. Well, PLEASE RESIST. They are all scams. Just a part of all the credit card fraud that is going on now. These sites are here today and gone tomorrow. If you think it's a great deal, more than likely it's a scam. BEWARE. I don't care if it costs me an extra dime, I only use sites that I am sure of and have done business with in the past. If not, I do a LOT of checking and check around. Ask others FIRST.

Ironically this just happened to me this last week with a car engine- engine never showed up when supposed to, said it was damaged in shipping- used a credit card so I had a third party- money back no problem!
