Revolution Airsoft = Absolutely Ridiculous
So in December I finally decided to go ahead and purchase the WE Tech HK 4168 from Revolution Airsoft. The shipping was pretty quick as I received the package from Calgary, Alberta to Waterloo, Ontario within 4 days of purchasing it.
But as I opened the box the rifle fell into two pieces. I emailed them about it and they told me to send the gun back to Calgary and they would take a look at it. The tracking info says that it arrived on December 27th and they attempted to deliver it but no one was there to receive it. So I emailed them telling them about the situation and the response I received was that they would "get someone to pick it up as soon as possible". After a month of dealing with Canada Post, it was finally shipped and was successfully delivered to the address they provided me with. Since then I have not received any response. I have emailed them countless times using a variety of departments, such as their sales/general, and have gotten no response at all. So now i'm $500 bucks out with no gun Anyone had a similar experience and have any advice? |

Viking had the exact same experience. He started a thread about it.

Looking at their website, they do have a "staff" in Ontario.
Stop e-mailing and call. If it's business, calling is much more effective. |

Apparently Revolution is super busy so that may be why its taking an unusually long time for a proper response.

they are always super busy.... so they say.
I had a few products shipped - it took long but it arrived well. But their protective packaging is a joke and the rootcause for such damages... Postal services are not known for handling bigger boxes with care... a responsible retailer ensures the goods are protected properly to me a part of customer Service.

Did you use Paypal or credit card? If so file a complaint/chargeback. Either that will light a fire under their asses or it will just get you your money back.

Squid Porn Superstar, I love the tentacles!

How long has it been since they picked it up?
When I had a defective gun it took them 3 weeks after receiving it back to ship me out a new one. |

Kind of wierd, I thought normally they where good with the customer and had no problem for an exchange if it was broken. I may have no choice to buy rom them anyway, they have the best price for my HK416 :/

Might be wise to pay a bit more but avoid surprises and unpleasantness...
