WTF is with Optics Planet canceling orders???

[shibbershabber]

I ordered a 870 Hogue Stock set and a Choate +1 mag extension...

They canceled the order because my order violated the law


Called customer service and they were of absolutley no use. Can't say why law was violated dont know anything about the products they're selling...


Literally telling its illegal to add a 6th round to a pump shotgun.

Anyone else have this stuff happen?

I challenged them to tell me how this item is illegal. Probably wont get a response but its worth a shot.

Thank your politicians and those who voted for them.

I ridicule them at every opportunity...

But no one has banned anything relating to pump shotguns... Yet

Doesn't matter. Certain companies are now refusing to sell almost anything to Washington. And they have the right to do so. I don't blame them and neither should you.

 

[ATCclears]

Find another vendor.

Thanks for the advice, I hadnt thought of that

Find another vendor.

Yup. With all the BS that's been voted in I can't say I blame any company that chooses the CYA route.

Optics planet sucks anyways. All they do is drop ship

They indeed have every right to operate that way.

However, I do definitely blame them for it.

From a customer service standpoint, itd be prederred if they outright stated their policy or even preventing the order from being placed. Canceling the order 10min later is BS

From a pricipled American standpoint, I see it as pretty chickenbubblegum. Essentially banning things that arent banned is a big cuck on their part.
Following the law is one thing.

Tolerance is how we have gotten to this point, on all fronts. Tolerating degeneracy, immigration, etc Tolerating being sold out on 2A from all fronts... But no one wants to fault the companies who leave us hanging because of muh FrEe mArKeT.

So yeah, I fault them for it and so should everyone else

You can fault them all you like. It won't do one bit of good. That's why it's best to recommend another vendor.

Don't waste your time, just have your alternate vendor send them a copy of your invoice with a nice little "thank you for this customer's business" note.

B!tching on the internet will fix it….

Lost Sales and Lost Customers is more likely to make an impact, hence my "have the replacement vendor CC them on the invoice saying 'this sale COULDA been yours, but...'"

Slowest shipping in the business. I swear they use a mule train.

Won't make a difference. But if it makes you fell better about it than do it.

Also spreading the word for a wider boycott. When they lose enough sales revenue somebody's gonna want answers.

 

[Nosferatu]

Optics Planet has been a known bubblegum company for a LONG time now. I'm sorry you just now found out about it.

Don't waste your breath trying to change their minds, they don't care.

Optics planet is shady. Always has been. The majority of us know this. So I'm guessing a "boycott" will do no good if they are still in business today with the business practices they have in place.

It has everything to do with liability and our sh!t justice system in its current liberal state.
