Super User burleytog Posted July 7, 2009 Super User Posted July 7, 2009 Cleaned them out of 021 and 297 Flappin' Hogs on Friday morning. Needed them before this Friday, so I paid $5 for the quicker shipping option. They shipped Friday afternoon with an estimated delivery date of 7/7. I'm outside in the yard this afternoon and see a UPS truck stop in the driveway. Out walks the delivery guy with a Tackle Warehouse box. Yep, the package made it from CA to here on a holiday weekend in basically one full business day. I'd love to see BPS do that. I've paid them for two day shipping and waited three or four days for the order to even ship. Yep, Tackle Warehouse pwns all. Quote
soccplayer07 Posted July 7, 2009 Posted July 7, 2009 i love them too. I ordered twice this week... Quote
Super User 5bass Posted July 7, 2009 Super User Posted July 7, 2009 So I guess you dont need me to find you some up here before the weekend? Quote
aarogb Posted July 7, 2009 Posted July 7, 2009 15% off everything virtually every other holiday isn't bad either. Quote
cyph3r Posted July 7, 2009 Posted July 7, 2009 15% off everything virtually every other holiday isn't bad either. just curious is 15% usually as high as they go for sale discounts? Quote
mrlitetackle Posted July 7, 2009 Posted July 7, 2009 ive only used TW about 3 times thus far, but needless to say, im a believer...... it perfect everytime. and free t shirts on the higher orders are nice as well. Quote
Super User Hammer 4 Posted July 7, 2009 Super User Posted July 7, 2009 I've oreded on Thurs, and had my stuff by Friday..gotta love TW.. Have never seen a sale with more than a 15% discount..not to say it's never happened though. Quote
adclem Posted July 7, 2009 Posted July 7, 2009 TW is awesome. Especially the free shipping and $10 for overnight shipping, that is really awesome! Later, Quote
D4u2s0t Posted July 7, 2009 Posted July 7, 2009 I've had good experiences with tw. Ordered twice, and both times my order was shipped within a few hours. Quote
Super User Bassn Blvd Posted July 7, 2009 Super User Posted July 7, 2009 Where have you been, under a rock? TW has always come through for me on the shipping. May you and your Flappin' Hawgs tear'em up. Quote
Super User RoLo Posted July 7, 2009 Super User Posted July 7, 2009 Tackle Warehouse has always been a class-act. Whenever I'm ready to place a tackle order, I always check their website first. If TWH doesn't don't carry it, then BPS wins by default. Roger Quote
Super User CWB Posted July 7, 2009 Super User Posted July 7, 2009 15% off everything virtually every other holiday isn't bad either. Put in my order yesterday to get the 15% off. Now I've got to make room for all the new goodies. Cant wait to try the NetBait Mad Paca - a Brush Hog type bait that I got 10 bags of. Quote
basser89 Posted July 7, 2009 Posted July 7, 2009 I just started ordering from TW this year and have been extremely happy with my orders! I goofed up on my memorial day sale order (didn't get the discount) and emailed their customer service. They credited my account with the discount I would have received! There are very few items they don't carry that I have to look somewhere else. But overall, TW ROCKS!!! Quote
bocabasser Posted July 7, 2009 Posted July 7, 2009 Yep, Tackle Warehouse pwns all. i agree. i have gotten every shipment before the estimated arrival time. no other fishing supply store can touch tw. Quote
Super User burleytog Posted July 7, 2009 Author Super User Posted July 7, 2009 So I guess you dont need me to find you some up here before the weekend? My 'clean out' was one package of 021 and three packages of 297. If I get into them tonight, I'll probably be running on empty again. Quote
Super User Raul Posted July 7, 2009 Super User Posted July 7, 2009 I order on Mon it arrives Wednesday afternoon, international ! can 't beat that. Quote
Super User burleytog Posted July 7, 2009 Author Super User Posted July 7, 2009 Where have you been, under a rock? TW has always come through for me on the shipping. May you and your Flappin' Hawgs tear'em up. I think this was the first time I've sprung for the fast shipping. I placed an order on the previous Friday, the regular ground shipping got it here in a week, which is usual for them. No complaints there though, at least I know when it ships. Quote
aarogb Posted July 7, 2009 Posted July 7, 2009 15% off everything virtually every other holiday isn't bad either. just curious is 15% usually as high as they go for sale discounts? No, sometimes I have seen them go as high as 20% off. Quote
TommyBass Posted July 7, 2009 Posted July 7, 2009 Prices and selection are great..... EXCEPT... on the order I just placed 5 out of the 13 items were out of stock / backordered. Its nice their shipping is fast but it dosn't matter if they don't have it. Ive come to find this a nagging problem with TW on more than one occaision. I can see rare or larger items but not the small packages of popular plastics etc. Your very hard pressed to find out of stock items at BPS. It also stated at the bottom of my statement that your order will not be shipped until all items are ready and off of back order? So does this mean they make you wait until your two packs of worms come in before they ship the other $300 worth of stuff? May have misread that but if so, theres another area BPS has them beat- they will send whats not back ordered and send a seperate order later. Like I said though, great prices on alot of stuff. Quote

Ive had many things that were backordered from them. They have always shipped the rest of my items with their usual promptness, and the backordered items when they arrive. They once paid 4.75 to priority mail me 1 package of owner hooks that I didnt even realize were backordered. C L A S S ! Quote
Super User burleytog Posted July 7, 2009 Author Super User Posted July 7, 2009 Your very hard pressed to find out of stock items at BPS. You must not have much experience ordering from BPS. Quote
TommyBass Posted July 7, 2009 Posted July 7, 2009 Your very hard pressed to find out of stock items at BPS. You must not have much experience ordering from BPS. Not really- order quite a bit of stuff from there actually... all items that were back ordered from TW I went and found on BPS no problem. For example, one was a rod. Just a nothing specail normal St. Croix casting for my dad. Same price. Why on earth would you carry not enough rods to run out? I found several back ordered on TW and all in stock on BPS. Same with a few Yamamoto, Zoom, Spro, and Rage products. I realize all retailers will have some out of stock, you can't get away from that. I was just stating it happens 3:1 to me on TW compared to BPS. Quote

Good deal, the way it read my whole order would not have shipped until the 28th because of the back orders which kind of scared me. Glad to know they do the same. Quote
Super User Dan: Posted July 7, 2009 Super User Posted July 7, 2009 Your very hard pressed to find out of stock items at BPS. You must not have much experience ordering from BPS. Yeah, I have had much more trouble with BPS and backorders than TW. Quote
