Why is that?

[pbzmag]

I ordered my new green xmag from them and it arrived one day earlier than I expected. Of course, I only ordered from them once.

i really hate 888 paintball.. but they are south jersey and im north jersey, so i get paint over night

888paintball has been a paintball store/mail order since back before the interenet was really around. I use to order from them quite frequently a few years back. Never had a problem with them.

I know their site has had somewhat frequent problems, with randomly going down. But if they aren't answering the phones i don't know.....weird.

The site is down. Let me put it this way they aer never going out of bussiness. If they go out so does paintball.
I am sure they get a few hundred orders a day so a few mistakes are going to happen.

I was on this morning. They had a message posted that they will be closed till Tuesday.

I usually order from paintball online but I had to order from 888 paintball to get my pants and slide shorts in time for Shatner, and I got them both the next day.

So I have no complaints.

888 is on vacation until Tuesday, they had a little ad for in the lower left of their pages.

[dinger]

hmm...

on a scale of 1-10, what would you declare the quality of 888pb's site, product availability, and Customer Service??

id give the site a 8. the availability [stock] of items would be a 3, and from what i hear the service is like a 2.
:o

service is absolutely pathetic. ill tell a story which shows their suckiness and my impatience.
i call on a thursday night and talk to jeremy, i ask him if they have the newest emags w/ lvlx and xvalve. he says "yes". i tell him i dont care what body it has because im going to ule it anyway and can he go back, open a box up and make sure the valve in the back of the gun is "black" and says "emax" on it as opposed to silver/grey and says "emag" on it. he says sure, puts me on hold, and comes back 5 min later and says that they are the new ones. i place my order for the gun and some other items totaling over 1200$. i tell him i want it for this weekend and he says the only way to do that is to pay for overnight shipping and for saturday delivery which would be 86$ shipping. i go ahead and do it and the items ship friday just like they should and the package comes saturday just like it should. i open the box up and guess what version emag i have. grey emag valve and no lvlx. i call jeremy who is working on saturday and ask him what happened he doesnt have an answer. i said "i thought you opened the box and checked?" he says that he spoke to the lady in shipping and she said they were the new versions. i asked if they ANY of the new version and he said that they didnt. which he knew immediately, its not like he had to go down and open a bunch of boxes to make sure. he just answered that they did not. i told him i wanted to return the gun and be reinbursed for shipping since i never would have ordered it overnight/saturday if they didnt have the correct gun. he told me to call customer service on monday. monday roles around and i call cs and talk to max. he says that a return is no problem, gives me and rna number and says that 24-48 hours after they receive the package i will be refunded for the gun AND the shipping. i ship it back to them and they receive it wednesday at 11:00 am. friday comes around 48 hours later and still no refund. so i call and max tells me that their return department is really backed up and it should be by monday. monday comes around no refund. i call tuesday and max assures me that it will be by no later than friday (yesterday). think i have my money now? heck no. i call yesterday around 5:00 and find out they are closed until tuesday, which max new when i talked to him on tuesday but didnt bother to tell me. now im getting a little concerned because not only do i not have the 800$ gun that i purchased but i also dont have a refund and its starting to look like i may not get it. i asked max who the department mananger was and he said that he is the manager. the only person higher than him is the owner so i guess come tuesday im calling the owner to find out what is going on. it took them 30 seconds to charge my card for the gun when i ordered it and now it takes them almost 2 weeks to credit it back???

buyer beware, this is how they do business when the mistake is THEIRS!! imagine trying to get a refund if you just change your mind and what to return something because you didnt like it when you received it.

im done now, thanks for reading lol
