Tactical Wholesalers - False advertising misleading

I wanted to order a simple face mask that was US made. Ru ning out of paper disposable gets expensive.

Anyway came across website claiming to sell mostly made in the usa tactical gear and decided to order one of their 'free' ust pay sh charges. Got some pop up that said us mail was slowing and I would havea better chance of receiving it early if I paid extra to move ahead in line. Yeah I fell for it. Uh anyway almost a week and a half layer I get it.

Smaller than I expectedand though well made its made in china with a chinese inspection tab and barely cover across my face.

Not sure how this would work a large mans head. Lesson learned.

Fraud

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

Ordered a product and was sent a different and cheaper version. They said it was not their fault that I did not get what I paid for.

The company refused to provide what they told me they shipped and took my money for.

The item continues to be for sale on their site. Crooked company AVOID THEM.

All they had to do was ship the correct item, they refused!

We sent you the wrong item due to a listing error based on bad data from the manufacturer. We emailed you a prepaid return label and agreed to provide a full refund.

You refuse to send the item back. We cannot do anything until receive the incorrect product back.

Not sure how this is bad customer service. Tactical Wholesalers

Question about a product

My question was simple. I would like to know if you can ship the Invisible Mace Pepper Spray to Canada. Unfortunately I have not received an answer to date.

Item didn’t ship after 11 days

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

I understand shipping delays due to the corona virus pandemic. Their website says item shipped in two days.

On the fourth day I checked in with them to ask if there were delays due to the pandemic and they said they were behind four days. A few days later I contacted them again and they said they were behind 5+ days. After seeing my item status was still in Packaging, I canceled my order. To their credit, they were very responsive when I sent them the two messages asking for status, I just wish I was given a more accurate timeline.

I honestly just got tired of waiting. I ordered from another site and my item shipped the next day. I will buy from Tactical Wholesalers when things settle down.

They are obviously super busy which is great for them. I would just like either a realistic shipping time frame given, or maybe an update from them after 11 days rather than me having to keep asking.

This entire sporting goods industry was impacted by extreme buying during this time... still is.

We had two (2) crews working 24x7 to get orders out.

We have some distributors that are STILL 2 weeks behind... and as I write this it is end of July.

It appears that my IP may be presenting a problem. When I click on the LINK in the email, all I get is WAITING FOR RESPONSE before the system times out. Perhaps you can nudge centurylink.com or centurylink.net.

Cancelled order

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

I ordered an item from these guys. I thought I might want to change the item so I sent a message saying"I may want to buy a different item than the one I ordered.

I'm not 100% sure yet but if I decide to. Is it possible?" They cancelled my order. I was not that upset I just thought it was a misunderstanding. The problem is I cannot get in touch with them now.

They do not take phone calls and I have not got a response yet.

I also have not been refunded yet otherwise I would just re order the item but they have marked the price of it up by $20 now. This has been a real headache and I would not recommend buying from them.

Order was canceled because we could not voice verify the order. We believed to be fraud.

Of course we would cancel this order.

If you review Shopper Approved reviews on us you will see we have over 2250+ 5 star reviews! We are an honest company and process hundreds of orders per day.

Tactical Wholesalers - Online Order Review from San Antonio, Texas

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

I wish I could say that we had a pleasant experience with them....but I can't. A colleague of mine pointed me at them for a fairly large order yesterday (~$12k)...and all was going well...until I entered shipping information, and their system started replying "shipping options not available for that address...please check"...so I double, triple, and quadruple checked the shipping address...which we've used hundreds of times with other vendors....and it was correct. I clicked on the 'contact us' link on the top of their page...saw a phone number...great! Called it "we don't actually help people via phone, e-mail us or leave a message...."...left a message, sent an e-mail, and filled out their request for help form for good measure.

...no responses. Tried alternative shipping addresses...in DC, Maryland, and TX. (I even tried my personal address...they wouldn't ship to my front door!)

I should mention that this was a time-sensitive order, so I waited about an hour before looking for product elsewhere (which I found fairly quickly...paid about $50 more for the entire order...but given shipping likely being that much, not a big deal at all). Posted a review on resellerratings so people could be aware of this situation (and so, hopefully, the vendor might get the idea to fix these problems). About 5 minutes later...I got a response...on resellerratings....the vendor has flagged the review as a violation of TOS, claiming "purchase never occurred, therefore this review is invalid."

I posted this on ripoffreport...and they called it fraudulent...and STILL never attempted to right the wrong.

...I'm thinking we dodged a bullet, and if you're reading this, you should note to AVOID TACTICALWHOLESALERS.COM at ALL costs. You'll be glad you did.

Five years later, I see you'd rather try and discredit the situation rather than fix your customer service issues. I'm glad I blacklisted you after that ordeal in 2015, as your attitude would have likely had a negative impact on our growth since then.

Sorry but this makes you look bad...

Trying to understand here: you say that it "looks bad" to expect a reply to an email or a phone call when an order isn't running properly...or you say it "looks bad" to refuse to do business with a vendor who refuses to respond to anything?

Pissed Consumer is not a valid review site and filled with competitors making fake reviews. We use Shopper Approved as a real review engine and have over 9,000 5 star reviews.

You can see this on our website. Pissed Consumer keeps trying to get us to sign up... nope. Also, we always respond to emails on our website and process 100’s of orders per day without issue.

Thanks! Tactical Wholesalers
