I have a new eight twist barrel in 6.5-284 coming, and I need to be ready to feed it. I have the dies, body die, head space gauges, primers, powder, and an assortment of bullets.
But no brass.
Lapua has 284 brass, yee haw. I ordered a couple hundred.
Except the only payment method is "Zelle'. WTF is "Zelle"?
There was a note on the checkout page that they would send me a text or E-mail telling me how to get their money to them. Color me skeptical.
I hope it is not a fake website. Is this "Zelle" crap reversible if my product never arrives?

No it is not reversible. I can send payments to people where I work and if I send the payment to the wrong phone number the money is gone.
Whatever website you are on for that brass is a scam.

Thanks, as I suspected. This appears to be the real Lapua website. https://www.lapua.com/products/cartridge-cases/

No. The requirement for "Zelle" stopped me.
I only use payment methods I know I can reverse.

good recovery from a real potential fumble.
I hate these damn fake sites. People making money by scamming instead of earning money honestly.

If it's too good to be true, it is.

I’ve been looking for Ramshot Hunter powder for about a year now and keep running into fake sites that only take Zelle or PayPal Friends and Family and other non-reversible payments. Extremely frustrating!

Sure is a good thing you checked here first.

If they don't take credit cards they are most likely a scam. Anyone who puts in the effort to build a nice website will put in the effort to get set up for credit cards.
