Tried to call and finally got a rep (6 minutes) who was gonna transfer me to Service who had a 19 minutes expected wait time.
Busy folks and Ole Joe is good for business,,,evidently.

I used their Chat feature earlier today and got helped in about 20 minutes total. Type up your question beforehand and be ready to paste it as soon as the assistant starts the chat.

The website was much slower than usual today for me but I did try it around 4pm, prime time, I reckon.

In almost 30 years I can't recall having a problem with Midway USA. Now I'm only wondering how long it will be before the commies shut down the online sales of things like reloading components. "OMG! We can't allow you to have deadly bullets shipped to your door!".

Got wrong item shipped via ultra slow shipping.

My last order was free shipping and got it in 4 days. Like a lottery, ain’t it?

I've had some S&W magazines on backorder from them for quite a while. Wondering if they will ever fill the order, or cancel and up the price when stock comes in.

I have had but one bad experience with them and that involved a return. I have never been disappointed with their shipping, but I never buy backordered items.

We can't allow you to have deadly bullets shipped to your door!". When I read this headline , I ordered some more Scenar bullets while I still could. I was on "Notify" when 6.5 PRC brass was available. Got a notification when I didn't have my phone with me, and tried to order some brass about an hour after the Notify came in, already sold out. No fault of them, just everyone thinking the same thing. Haven't found any brass since I bought this first rifle in 6.5 PRC, no dies to be found anywhere last time I checked anyway. Got other stuff to play with till than.

I ordered some bullets, dies and a bench mounted priming tool just before Christmas, when the box got here, one of the boxes with Midway USA printed on it, it was ripped open and the bullets and dies were gone and the box tapped over. I called customer service and they said it happens all the time, they sent me my bullets and dies free of charge and I got them in a few days in an unmarked box. My orders since all come in a standard usps box with no issue.
Sounds like UPS and USPS is looking for the boxes with Midway on it and opening it and stealing the contents, are you guys getting Midway marked boxes or unmarked boxes now?

I like them but have had a few issues, poor packing, 22 bricks busted in box and cartrigdes actually coming out of edges of the actually packing box, midway wanted me to count open bricks to see how many fell out of box. Ordered 20 cases of norma 257wby brass, sent 19. Told me they weight their brass, don't count it....it was only 20 pieces? how lazy is that.
