In February, I placed an order for components from Evergladesammo.com. They sent a shipment confirmation including a USPS tracking number. I tracked the shipment on the USPS website and on the day it was supposed to arrive, it didn't. The next day the USPS website said it was "delayed". After a few days of "delayed" status, I contacted Dave Bender at Everglades via e-mail and asked if they could get any better information. Dave told me he could only get the same information, but asked me to wait a few days because they had experienced been some weather-related delays.

By March 3, the package was still "delayed", so I contacted Everglades. Dave said they would file a claim for a lost package and replace the original shipment - which they did. Dave also said if the original package showed up, they would pay to have it returned. :) As soon as the claim was filed and the replacement shipped, the original shipment was found. I suggested that rather than have Everglades pay to return the original package, I could just send them a check to cover it and keep them both.

Dave replied saying that was okay, but rather than having me pay for two 500 case/500 bullet orders, they would prefer to price it as a single 1000 case/1000 bullet order and charge me just the difference which made it much cheaper for me. :D Of course, I agreed. I was really impressed with:
  • How quickly Everglades responded to my original and subsequent inquiries,
  • The logical course of action they suggested,
  • Their response when the package didn't show up,
  • Their response when it later did show up, and
  • Their willingness to re-price the order.
I've posted several times that Everglades is one of the sellers of components that I have bought from and not had a problem with. Now, I can point to how they responded to a problem that was not of their own making. :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:

Very impressed. Totally satisfied.
 
I have also been dealing with Dave on a suggestion for improvement to their Everglades race holster (which I love), and Dave and I had a few back-and-forth messages, and he fabricated a custom piece for me which he is sending to me at no charge to try out and provide feedback.

What a GREAT company. We need more like these guys. They make you want to give them you business.
 
Yes, Everglades is top-notch. I really like their 115 and 124gr. concave base 9mm FMJs. RMR sets a high standard for value and service; Everglades is the only vendor I know of that matches it.
