-Rant Begin

As much as I love PSA, I just have to say.....they have some of the worst customer service in the entire industry when it comes to shipping their products out for deliveries.  I should not have to come on a forum to give my order number and ask where my order is.  I have purchased numerous items from them in the past, but I just cannot take the lack of service when it comes to shipping a freaking lower parts kit that their site says is in stock.  It has been 2 weeks now, and no mention of anything.  My credit card was charged immediately.  I have since then already bought another LPK from another manufacturer that only took 3 days to ship to my front door because I got sick of waiting.  Eventually, I am sure their LPK will show up at my door and I will just throw it in my drawer for a next build or sell it away.  Very disappointed    

Until they fix their online shipping issues, they have lost me as a customer.  I would rather pay higher prices elsewhere and get superior service.  Sorry.

I am just wondering if this is the general consensus when it comes to them.  Is it expected that PSA will take forever to ship in-stock items?  Why is this acceptable with the consumers?  Because they are saving $20.  Not worth it for me.  Frustrating.

And I'm sorry, but I am sick of hearing about how swamped and overwhelmed they are.  Everyone is swamped and overwhelmed.

I really like PSA.

But I also realized that when I order something from them...it might take some time to get to me.

So...meh....I don't order from them if I want said item "right now".

But it doesn't stop me from ordering their daily deals when I see one I really like.

I love ordering things from PSA . it does take a bit for some parts to go from ordered to shipped. But the deals they have are AWESOME! Which is why people love them. I'm pretty sure when 2000 people order a $100 LPK. It'll take a bit to get to your order.

Old news, this rant is posted 1000 times all over the board.

PSA has good deals, and you always get your stuff...eventually

If you are in a hurry, shop Rainier, BCM, or Primary Arms.

I have purchased several LPKs from PSA, but never got a single one of them before 2-3 weeks.  I shop PSA now for "extras" when the hot deals pop up.  If I want it now, I go with the 3 above who have treated me excellent so far with the shipping habits.

I believe they state right on there website I may take up to 14 days for your order to ship??? So in that case they warn you. Which means deal with the shipping time or go somewhere else...

I ordered the lower and LPK for 100 bucks from their deal  that ended at noon on the 31st. My stuff already shipped out the next day and it will be at my ffl tuesday if tracking # is correct.  I must have been one of the early orders for that deal...

Yeah, bullshit.  I have ordered "in-stock" stuff when the website stated give them up to five days to ship and this was before the panic.  A good month or so later, I finally got the last three of the four items I ordered.

I am in the same boat as others.  If I need something, they are no longer one of the places I look to.  But, if they happen to have something I want, I will order it and prepare to wait a while.  I will normally only order from them when I am working out of state and know I won't be back home for a month or two, and one of my neighbors just puts my stuff in the house when it arrives.

Same here. Don't even get me started on the 5 week odyssey between them and me regarding the replacement of a fu*ked barrel assembly with a 6-7 degree canted FSB on a CHF barrel they sent me and told me I had to eat because I installed it into a receiver. It took 6 calls to CS, about 2 hours of total hold time dealing with two tards, coming into their industry forum, and posting nice little pic of this joke of a FSB drill job before management got involved, had the thread locked as to not propagate bad PR for PSA before they sent me a near perfect replacement. In the end, they made it right and even threw in a few extras. I still do business with them, but I will NEVER order another barrel assembly from them. PSA drills the FSB's on their barrels in-house. That said their complete uppers and rifles are GTG. The replacement 14.7 barrel the sent me the second time shoots like a champ...

I have never waited more then a week for anything psa.  3  to 4 days normally. My blem upper shipped next day a couple weeks ago, It sat at ups until the Monday but that was still 4 days shipped counting weekend. Lowers usually take a week,, but that's kind of a given with ffl process.   I figured it was because I am close VA, but I see you are also.  Even customer service has been awesome.  Emails are always answered perfectly .. even when I am asking for stupid shit!  The few times I have been in the shop when passing thru everyone is always awesome.  Sorry for you bad luck tho.
