Shipping time from AoA

I’m getting a little upset on how long AOA is taking to ship my Uragan. I ordered over the weekend and then they called me Monday morning to say that they are sorry but they don’t have a .22 in stock but they have a.177 or a .30 long or a uragan compact in .22 I can substitute. I called them back later that day to say I’ll go ahead and take the compact. Here it is Thursday evening and my gun has still not shipped. I called yesterday and asked when it will ship and they said today but now they are closed so that’s not happening. They said they had to test it. Is this a normal thing with them? This is my second gun purchase with them and the first was a used brocock and it shipped quickly.
 
Ordered a HW97K on the 21st. Did not let me know it was not in stock and the Website did not indicate that fact. Called a few days ago and they told me that it was being unloaded from the delivery truck as we spoke. Just shipped today (27th). It was checked and test fired, so all is good. I have ordered several guns from AOA and really don't have a complaint. If they would communicate just a bit better it would be helpful, but understanding the volume they evidently do, I really can't complain. Good Luck with yours.
 
I would say it is worth the small delay . I have personally never gotten a product from them that had to be returned ever. ((yet haha (just incase lol)). They have always been great to deal with. And they do check things out pretty good. I have purchased used items , A brocock bantam hi-lite (new) , and 2 fx crowns (new)also some target systems and a long time back a lot of other things including pellets, bi pods and such. They have always been great to deal with at least for me anyway. I like them just fine. I have tried alot of others just to see which I preferred over another since then. But They will take care of you. 👍👌 No worries !

Hey Jason I just thought to add this in there haha==

I have waited twice that long on the forums here with some of the fellers to no avail at all 😂😂😋 up to 2 and 3 weeks even 😆. At least aoa will eventually get it done. I can not say that for all of us here and everyone else haha LOL! I guess we all have our moments 😁💤💤 I compared them to brim or small sunfish haha you can see your float and line moving everywhere and bobbing under and popping back up but you never get them on the hook They just nibble and nibble and nibble haha. Not trying to be rude at all but laughing and giggling lol It's all good.👍


 
I would chose AoA service over fast shipping any day and every day myself. But have to be honest and say I have not done much with either of the 2 mentioned above as of recent. I have found others to be the whole package and then some. OOPPSS! did i just type that where everyone can read it haha. I was supposed to just think that to myself to avoid any conflicts haha. Oh well time to clean my shoes off again something smells funny 😂

I would say from my experience communication is poor. I bought an hw44 on a Sunday and recieved my order about 1 business week later. The product I recieved malfunctioned after less than a tin. I sent it back and am waiting. The thing I disliked the most was the general sense that when I called about it the attitude was we'll get to it when we get to it. When they answer it's not "hello what can I do for you " it's more like"what do you want? " long story short lacking in customer service for slightly better pricing
