Airsoft G.I. Ripoff Artists

A group of us got together to buy rifle bags from this company.

Basically, we got fucked on the shipping. They charged us 203USD to ship three boxes, and we got two. When we went to UPS, they said "based on the packaging, this should have cost $68USD".

The way bill said we were getting three boxes, it turns out they charged us shipping, then canceled the third box, but never refunded the cost of shipping it.

We called up the owner, he said "too fucking bad".

Never again from Airsoft G.I. They may not shaft every customer, but watch out, cause when they do, they really fuck you.

Blackthorne, you'll probably want to post this on Arnies or one of them American sites, too.

Someone should give them a big fucking rock for Xmas............... right through their front window! Tie a note on it that says:

"Kinetic energy sucks, too fucking bad!"

I guess buying local would have been better in this case. Saves you on the shipping hassles.

wow....wow......WOW Things like this make me so god damn sick.

Sucks to hear.

That's why I stick to Ehobbyasia.

At least they have excellent customer service.

WOW! They said the "F" word? Too bad for them word spreads fast in a small community like airsoft. Boycott! Girlcott!

Airsoft G.I. has alot of great stuff like low prices, discounts, easy web interface, good customer support, until you get to the asshole. I have a grudge that it has to do with one of the lazy employees.

I'd suggest purchasing by phone (whilst looking at the web page) and ask for the person's name (if he doesn't already give it), if he fucks your order then call the next day and rat him out. I know if you call on Fridays and ask for ------ (I forgot his name, I'll make another post when I remember) then he'd be very willing to help you out. My friend did this and got his CA M4 with absolutely no problem.

What the fuck kind of response is that? Man I would have lost it with the moron.

Sorry to hear you got screwed so badly on that and thanks for the heads up, definatly not going to buy from them.

It's a shame. They are one of The only Systema PTW retailers in the U.S that will actually ship parts and such to Canada. Perhaps it's best to avoid them?
