Seeing is believing, or someone got their wires crossed on the shipping estimate?

yup that is what it says, lets see if it is delivered for that price.
If it sounds too good to be true? Guess I am just a skeptic!

One thing you folks might consider is WHEN does WSS NEED their stock of Black Cloud to arrive ----- in time for hunting season!!! I'd say that would be August.
They don't want 100 or 200,000.00 or more of inventory sitting on the floor or in the whse doing nothing. If they bulk ship the whole works at once, it is cheaper on freight, they put it out when it arrives, and it starts selling right away.
And they won't really care if the price changes a bit, or a lot, someone will buy it if you don't. Although a smart purchaser would book it at a guaranteed cost, doesn't mean the management can't tinker with it when it arrives, to make an extra point or two on it, if it is there to be had.
And it isn't just them that think like that.

I will NEVER buy anything from WSS again. Worst service in the world and they NEVER have anything in stock.

Why is it that the HA HA crowd at the hunting counter, looking like they just stepped out of their blind has 2 or 3 staff standing there listening to how good these fellows think they are, and what they should do next time, cause it didn't work last time, get all the attention? You know they aren't going to spend any cash at that time, and everyone else stands around and waits for their turn to ask a question, or just up and leaves The guys in the fishing department are great and are better in the hunting dept than the staff that is currently there
Sorry, just had to vent, hopefully it gets better.

I have no problem with their staff but I would never order anything from them. If you ask at the time of order do you have it in stock, they don't have a clue. Most times they will say yes and then phone you two weeks later asking if you want to back order. Very sad situation as they had or should have had the Canadian market sown up, they dropped the ball big time and now they loss out to Cabelas, Basspro etc. If you want good service order from Cabelas USA, you will know within a day and usually as you fill out the order if they are out of stock on something. I would prefer to buy Canadian but have never found near the service that Cabelas USA provides. What's the point in ordering something and knowing you won't find out for two weeks if it is even in stock. I shake my head every time I think about it, what a wasted opportunity by WSS.

When a sports shop buys ammo from Kent or anyone they get terms and those terms are always extended to Sept.30, so that can have much of it sold before they have to pay the bill. FS
