Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Midway USA

Many years ago like maybe 2013 I ordered two different powders they claimed were in stock. The order was placed in February and after falsely claiming it would be shipped several times they refunded my credit card account without notifying me or paying me interest. This was done after 8 months. Powder was in short supply and I believe they diverted my powder to a preferred customer. Haven't bought a thing from Larry since.

When the big toilet paper scare had fully kicked in and crazy was the rule of the day, folks making runs on the canned food and such, our local Walmart began a hiring blitz. They had every retard in town several to an aisle and posted they could "flash hire" and have you on the payroll in two hours. Never seen so many people doing so little work. Of course this was before the sheeple corrals and dunce masks. Crazy year.

Well the bad part is that it's not just one
company with problems, but many.
Companies top heavy with management
of all levels, all trying to implement their
own policies and practices so they can
step back and say how this great new
improvement came about all because of
something they implemented, etc.
That's even infected the parks and
wildlife department here.

What can you do?
Put in your order and sit
and twiddle your thumbs.
Kinda like waiting on the freight
wagons to bring something to the
general store from St Louis 150 years ago

My how we have progressed

I tried to order a Trigger Tech trigger from Thegundoc. Their website is a pita and non functional, if you need to change address. Tried calling and just got run in a circle of voice mail. Hung up and ordered elsewhere.

Is it still Larry? Thought MidwayUSA was sold? Last couple orders went fine, got what I ordered in a fairly reasonable amount of time. Thankfully, no need for customer service.

I beg to differ.

Years ago the site was great. They have gone backwards. My biggest peeve with the current version is their search filters. It used to be a side bar menu or menus with check boxes qnd dedicated side scroll bars. They've altered it with sub menus that collapse or expand and no dedicated scroll bar for the side menu. Each time you select an individual selection, the whole sub menu refreshes and if you had expanded the sub menu, it collapses and starts you back at the top. So for example, if you want to search 30 cal rifle bullets in 180 gr to 220 gr range, you will have to select 180, then it refreshes, that sub menu collapses, takes you back to the top. You have to repeat that for each weight category and scroll way down. With no scroll bar for that sub menu, you either have to pan across to the far right of the page or use another method to scroll like the arrow key or pg dn. With the side scroll bar, you could just grab it and zip right where you wanted it.

It takes forever and is maddening. The Millennial or Gen Z "genius" that did this should be made to scrub the entire length of I-45 with a tooth brush with someone kicking him in the ass the entire way.

Yeah, it used to be a snap to actually talk to someone at Amazon about a problem, but now they make it extremely difficult, to near impossible, to do so.

I rather enjoy not having to speak with a person. Zero issues with Midway here.

Hawkeye, I believe Mr. Bezos has taken advantage of the baloney virus to streamline and increase sales and remove attentive customer service from the equation.

Could be that their customer service is being conducted from stay at home employees.

Trying to get my daughter registered for Fall classes. The state univ here all admissions people are working from home

Which means they are phoucking-off. Or if you get a live person, they’re brats and dogs are in the background.

Their protocol is to email us and we *might* reply in 2-4 business days.

"In normal times"

I'll grab something from them at a close out price, or if I just can't find it anywhere else. As I can usually beat their prices elsewhere.

"During these times, a double cluster flop. The pandemic & the rioting?"

Everything everywhere gun & shooting related is mostly a mess.

They had what I wanted, it shipped the same day, tracking number they gave me is fake, that package was delivered on 4-20

Last week (last Thursday, in fact) I placed an order with Midway, and I had it Saturday around noon. Fastest service I've ever gotten from them, AND the order was complete, another shocker. For whatever reasons, I get great service from both them and Midsouth.


However, I wouldn't buy anything from Amazon if my life depended on it. I worked in an Amazon warehouse and know how they treat their employees, and with the PC climate infecting them now, it's worse than when I worked there. I wouldn't pizz down Bezo's throat if his guts were on fire. I'm sitting on a $100 gift card from them right now, and won't use the damned thing. I just don't want anything to do with them.

Neither do I, I do as little business with them as possible in today's world.

But, if you're serious about not wanting to use that $100 gift card, I'll PM you my address.

I've not had any issues with Midway either. Most of my online purchases for shooting gear and reloading stuff is from Midway, Midsouth Shooters, Grafs and Natchez Shooters. All good experiences.

Yup, thanks for making us rich.........you can fu-k off now.

The site does behave differently depending upon the platform, browser and user settings. I have zero complaints and absolutely love how it operates. Would like to sort by BC though.

That's what they're saying. But, not out of their mouths. Lol.

I'm not guaranteeing that this is the answer, but they do reuse tracking numbers. It's entirely possible that the newest use of that number just hasn't yet shown up in the system.

Why does it have to be Ill intent?

Why not they are just overwhelmed with orders....

#chinaflu lockdown has folks buying online like crazy.
