Frustrated by Cabela’s & BassPro’s Faulty Website Primer Inventory?

[jimmyvegas29]

I was able to check out for 1 brick of the 450's. Didnt receive any confirmation email but they charged my card. This morning I received an email saying they are processing my order. We will see how this goes.

Also was able to place an order for ship to store yesterday, today received same confirmation email that order is being processed. Even if it takes a month to get to the store I'll accept that! $45.00 and waiting a few is much better than paying the scalpers $100.00

I placed one order November 26 that went to "Shipped" status yesterday with a FedEx tracking number so I have a high degree of confidence that order will end up in my possession late next week or the following week.

I placed a different order on November 27 that the order status still shows "Processing".

You can check the status of your orders at any time here; if you don't have an online account established you'll need the order number.

I found out this summer when I signed up for an online account all online purchases I made prior to that got populated in my order history, it wasn't just point forward.

Cabelas has become a joke since the sale to Bass Pro. I've bought very little since Cabelas brand clothing has been replaced with Redhead.

So say we all !!

I just got notified that the order I placed on 27 November for 1K CCI #450 was cancelled.

Hopefully, others have better luck.

Not to potentially burst your bubble but I ordered 5 bricks, they confirmed my order, charged my card, posted they had shipped my order to local store...I opened the box and there were 3 sleeves the rest was canceled without telling me. So not 5K but 300.

That is essentially how I began this thread

I have no bubble to burst, curious why you chose to perceive one. I've had some LTD experiences as well, but my ratio of unfavorable vs favorable remains favorable for me. My order placed November 26 was for a 1 lb container of IMR 4831, and if I find that container was opened and part of the contents removed I'll certainly raise the issue.

Just received my cancellation email a few minutes ago!

Just a figure of speech.

YMMV, I don't think my posted expectations quoted are unrealistic.

 

[Rbstuartjr]

I placed an order for 2 bricks of CCI 300 on 11/25 and they gave me notice that it shipped today. Hopefully it arrives as expected.

I think we’re in violent agreement.

Just checked, mine was canceled too Ohh well, worth a shot.

Bummer. My latest order (10 sleeves of LPP, not a brick although obviously the same number of primers) didn’t get canceled and is scheduled to arrive at the store on Dec 1. I wouldn’t bet your paycheck that the total amount will be correct, but I’ll post here either way.

my order of 1,000 450 primers was cancelled . I finally was able to get an order in and it failed . I have spent a lot of hours trying to get those primers . been patient checking all over my area in stores and online every day just about every minute I have .I am so pissed off it is not even funny. their system has to be one of the worst out there . how do you allow way more orders than you can fill . watch in a couple days they will be back up for sale.

The guys in the IT department are rolling on the floor reading your post.

Yah i should have done the individual 100 packs, was just trying to get checked out as fast as possible haha. Next time.

glad somebody got a kick out of my post . I have wasted more time looking for those stupid primers than any man should be allowed to . I see they are availble when I am sleeping at 2am. stay up late and they are not available . keep reading the updated post where they are availble to see if I can grab some .my brother says I have the patience of a rock well this place will make anybody want to go elsewhere. . I ordered a scope from Cabelas yesterday time to cancel it as I am going to spend my money elswehere . my cash is still good at other stores surely somebody wants it.

Your not alone, i was on a buisness trip that took me to pikeville, ky a few months back, called all the local gun stores and check for primers, none in stock. On my way back to the airport in Hebron, KY i had to pass through lexington so i called 1 store, nothing, called a second store... they had primers in stock! 45 minutes out, got there... it was like the wholy grail, 14 bricks of CCI 400s, 5 bricks of 41's, and 3 Federal match SRP's. I ended up buying 10 bricks of the 400's. I had them hold onto them as i was flying out the next day, but i just so happened to be flying back up to the same airport the following week. So.. i made plans for a one way flight, finished my work and spent the next 14 hours driving back to florida with 10 bricks of primers

Sounds like you finally got lucky on your find congrats on the big score . I was going to be content with 1,000 primers , just trying to get into reloading but have been unable to find any to get started. I did the same on vacation a few months ago and came up empty . spent a whole day of my vacation and hours driving around calling all of the local stores . I work in the IT field and will not comment on the software issue other than it is fixable . this morning was the first one I can remember in a long time not getting up searching all over for unobtanium.

Keep at it, and you could also try to get primers that you cant use for any of the calibers you intend to reload and then try to trade them for what you need. There is always someone somewhere that is lopsided on a certain type of primer and will trade to balance out there stock. The only crappy part about primers is you cant ship them as the general public.

I'd like to preface this with "Nothing Personal"

Nothing personal, but the 'Primers in stock at Cabela's' postings are, from my own experience, a consistent let down.
Seeing them in the 'Where are there Reloading Components,,,,' thread strangely evokes the same kind of emotions in my ~twisted little mind~` as Spam in my inbox,,,,
Nothing personal, but I've chosen 'remove those posts from my view' the only way I can, by using the software available to me on this site.

Again, nothing personal.

More for me, thanks

sorry for being so flippant. It’s is frustrating but since July I have successfully bought a total of 11000 LPP via nearly a dozen separate orders. An attempted additional 15000 via three orders have been canceled.

so, a pain for sure, but no pain no gain.

and no I’m not hoarding these...my son and neighbor are sharing the bounty at list price.
