Ten days ago I ordered 500 .44 Special cases from Starline brass. The website indicated that it was in stock and available. I received an order confirmation the same day indicating that it would be shipped FedEx and did not mention any back-order situation.
So, ten days goes by and I receive nada. I emailed them today asking for a tracking number or expected delivery date. I get a reply stating they are out of stock and my order is back ordered until Sept. 30th.
When I told my wife the situation, she replies, "They already charged our Visa card!". She looked it up on-line and the charge had disappeared. This was not a "pending" charge for a buck or so (testing the account) as is so often the case, but an actual charge for the exact amount.
The website does now say they are backordered, but that was definitely not on there when I place my order. I wouldn't be quite so ticked off, but I turned down an offer of some used range brass, which is now gone, expecting Starline to come through.
I've written back to Starline and will post any additional information FYI. If they could ship me just 50 or 100 brass so I could get to the range it would be awfully helpful. I hope they actually check their stock. It can't be all gone in just moments. There's got to be floor sweepings somewhere, I hope.
