Well for those who are interested - multiple ordering doesn't work... I assumed that since you could order one box and then go back in and order another that it was one box per customer per day per order. Especially since it let me keep ordering until they ran out. Guess that isn't the case - because they canceled all but 5 of my orders. I was HOT since I got confirmation and everything...
So I figured I'd let YaAll know...
 
I Had another brick of blazer 22 show up today. it was $6 more than the brick a week or so back :(
 
Well it did say 'One per day', didnt it?

I thought it said one per day per ORDER. Which I understood because people like me would have just ordered 10 bricks at one order. So I figured if it was one per ORDER then you had to go out and back in for each box. AND - since it allowed me to do that - it further confirmed my thinking of one PER ORDER. Evidently somehow in the fine print I got it backwards. BUT - that said - if the system allows you to order it, it is instock (which it was) and you get CONFIRMATION of your orders - then you should receive said orders. I had a lengthy conversation with them this morning where I explained I had promised a friend who has no access to ammo what I had ordered. She said "you shouldn't have promised". Well to me - their accepting and confirming the order was a promise to me. And they broke it....

it was very clear that the policy was one per person per day.

with that said, i ordered another box fully expecting it to get cancelled and it went through.
 
I live in San Antonio and the nearest Cabelas is in Buda (South Austin). As part of my job I drive to Dallas every month or so, so I'll place ship to store orders when 22 LR pops up on Cabela's web site and they hold it for me. Recently I was fortunate enough score a brick of Blazer (and it actually went through without being cancelled). I stopped by on my last trip North last Tuesday and went back to the ammo aisle to see if any rim-fire was on the shelf. The usual plentiful .17 HMR was there and so was a whole gaggle of Blazer bricks. I paid $24 and change for the online Blazer but the shelf price was over $55. I've never seen Cabelas differential price ammo like that. I have no problem with it (else-wise there wouldn't have been any there). Just thought it was interesting. Good luck everyone - hope the PPR goes back down to ~$0.02 with plentiful selection someday soon.
 
I can't agree with your logic.

Why not? I figure if their system allows me to order a product - and CONFIRMS THE ORDER - then that means I should receive the order. It's not my fault I was able to order and pay for their product. If they only want me to order one - then I should not have been able to order more then one.
Better yet - if they had of sent me what I ordered - I wouldn't be buying anymore. So now I still will be jumping all over the alerts and ordering one every day it comes out. If one of these places would just let me have about 10 bricks I would be out of the loop....

Are you SURE the confirmation really confirms what you think it does? Its kind of semantics but, mine basically just says "Thanks for your order."

It doesn't really indicate that they have accepted it and that I'm promised delivery.

Its not any different then if you were under 21, ordered a drink, and the servers says "Thank you".

But before handing you the drink and taking your money, double checks your ID to make sure everything is in compliance, and then cancels your order.



While you admit that you didn't understand their policy correctly, you still put all the blame on them.

You take the "Its not my fault I was able to..." attitude.

Well, its not their fault you didn't understand their stated policy. Everyone else in this thread did.


Here's the bottom line, really.

Your orders violated their stated policy and were cancelled and therefore you didn't pay for them. That's not "their fault".
 
Walmart (with a 1 box/customer limit) isn't going to let you walk in, buy a box, walk out to put it in your car, and walk back in to buy another box the same day. Just because it's a different order in the same day doesn't mean that should allow you to get around their rules

I recently ordered eight 500 rd bricks of CCI Blazer and only four were cancelled. They shipped the other four bricks.
