THIS COMPANY COULD NOT PROCESS 2 ORDERS IN A TWO WEEK PERIOD, ALWAYS AN EXCUSE, COULDNT LOCATE ORDER STATUS,MOVED WAREHOUSE, VERY OBNOXIOUS ON THE PHONE, WITHHELD CORRECT INFORMATION,TREAT VETERANS LIKE THIRD CLASS CUSTOMERS, WHEN ASKED IF ATTORNEY NEEDS TO CONTACT THEM YOU GET BARRED FROM PLACING ORDERS BECAUSE OF THEIR POOR BUSINESS PRACTICES,, I HOPE JOE BIDEN PUTS THESE PEOPLE OUT OF BUSINESS

I have made multiple purchases from them in the past. Other than being slightly overpriced (and you accept that when you order so its not a ding on them) they were fine. This last order not so much. Same as all the other complaints here. You order an in stock item, they charge your card IMMEDIATELY, and then it takes forever to ship. You should not be charging the cards if you cant ship timely. Also I received an email to update me that my order was delayed, but it provided no time table for shipping. If you look all over social media you will see that many people are having the same issue. Also the fact that they take the time to film DAILY videos and put together multiple emails a day about items on sale, but are so far behind on shipping is annoying to the customer. Its like salt in the wound. EVERY employee they have should be working to ship orders all the time. You are at best a month behind on shipping.

The WORST company, ever!!! They have made mistakes and won't take responsibility for them. And they hide behind the internet. They say you can call them, but after the recording they drop your call, every single time. I have been waiting on an "in-stock" order for over 3 months now. Example of one mistake with the order, they made me pay another $79 if I wanted the rifle. I paid it thinking that I would have my rifle shipped right away, but still waiting for it to be "picked and processed". On their website they claim that "all is good..." with my order, but they have not even picked nor shipped my order. They will not tell me when I can even expect to receive my order. STAY AWAY!! Classic Firearms is HORRRIBLE!!!

Over a month and my order has not even shipped. Seems to me that they sold inventory they don't have

Just like everyone else on here. This company is a RIP OFF! Taken my money, shipped no product over six weeks now. No phone or email response. Wish I could give them five negative stars!

Exact same thing as below. Ordered items on 1/16/2021 and is still ready to pack. Sent several e-mails and phone calls with no response. However i do continue to receive multiple emails about sales and items in stock or the gun giveaways.(which i personally think are fake). They did reply to 1 email 5 days later so said they were trying to get orders processed in 10-15 days well mines going on 24 days. Didn't quiet hit that goal did ya! I really want to like the company and do a lot of business with them but i can't with the long shipping times and poor customer service.

I ordered 1000 round of Wolf 762x39. When the tax raised the price of ammo they deleted my order and acted like it was a glitch and said I did not order an item even though I have an order confirmation. They refunded it but now I am stick with out ammo and they refused to back order or anything

Ordered gun. Card charged. No gun. Now in 3rd week and gun has not even been pulled for shipping. What makes it particularly annoying is the relentless barrage of sale e-mails they continue to send. If they can’t meet their current obligations, it is extremely galling that they are aggressively trawling for more sales. If you can buy it somewhere other that Classic Firearms, do so.

Classic Firearms takes your money immediately but you will not receive your order for weeks. I placed my order on January 5th, 2021 and have called multiple times, either get the automated message and hung on or if by chance you are "caller #24" you can wait on hold as I did for 54 minutes until I was finally able to speak to a real live person. I too got the excuse of "we moved warehouses" and also "we had a glitch with our system". Today is now February 4th, 2021 and my purchase is still in the "Pack" category. At this point I am going to wait 1 more week then start the process cancelling my order and hopefully recouping my money. No matter how bad you want something I would look elsewhere, it is not worth the hassle of dealing with Classic Firearms!!!

Items that are not a firearm have shipped in an acceptable amount of time. The firearm I ordered, listed as "in-stock" still hasn't shipped. No email responses and they will not answer the phone. That is not acceptable. I want to like the company...how about you quit cranking out videos and daily emails and allocate your assets to packing boxes and filling orders...

Ordered product, CF immediately charged card, CF has yet to ship product though over two weeks have passed. I have yet to receive a reply to my email and they're not answering the phones. Their positive reviews appear faked and their negative reviews are many and consistent. It's time for us would-be customers to file complaints with the NC Attorney General.

Scummy business practice. You order they take money from you and make you wait 1 or 2 month. Don't need you to believe me just check the many people in their comments on Facebook and YouTube. I will never recommend anyone to buy from them and will make sure none of my friends and family ever do business with them.

I ordered a item listed as new and they sent me a used item that was the wrong model and half the price I paid them! Words can not describe how terrible this company is!

Billed my card immediately but still have not shiped parts. Parts are in stock but have not even been processed after 26 days. My customer service emails have gone unanswered. An automated response said they would get back to me within 3 days lol.... Never again. Be warned.

Order was placed on Jan 6th, 2021 No updates on the website, order is still in processing: ready for picking, called their phone number only to get an automated message and hungup on, no response from email support. I was informed from friends that have done business before with classic that they were a good and reputable company, but with how poor the service is currently I will not do business with them again. Edit 1/26/2021: Finally got through the phone line without being hung-up by their automated system. I've been told the reason for their delay is due to changing warehouses. Still doesn't explain why three weeks later the order has not moved out of ready for picking status. Edit 2/2/2021: Nearly 4 weeks later and still no movement on my order. I've called again and they gave me another excuse of a "programming issue" with their warehouse. Before I could get a response from the representative (Stephanie) she hung up my call as I asked a series of questions and saying this is unacceptable.

I paid 1200$ for a IN-STOCK rifle and immediately got an email saying "ready for shipping" and that was over 2 weeks ago. They don't answer phones or respond to emails asking where my order is? Unbelievable!!!! After doing more research on classic firearms social media its apparent that they are scamming people out of their money.

Ordered on 1/6, they charged my card and cleared my FFL. Zero communication until I contacted them on 1/20. They got back to me on 1/26. Brett S. Said he had spoken to his warehouse manager and assured me my order would ship no later than 1/29, that Friday. Still has not shipped and communication returns to zero. DO NOT BUY ANYTHING FROM THEM.

DONT USE FINANCING TO BUY FROM THEM. LOOKING FOR NC LAWYER. The financing company is taking money out of my account on something they oversold and didn't have in stock. Nobody can get in contact with them. It's been weeks and weeks.

Honestly, on the surface, they look like a great company. Later you understand that their sales/ description tactics are unethical at best... Scam/ fraud at the worst. They are completely legal but it is our responsibility as the consumer to not give into these bait and switch tactics. Their hand pick option is utter be as they know that there is no obligation to actually give you a better hand picked product... Just one that they said they hand picked. They sent a magazine that doesn't fit in the gun, a model that didn't even see service in the respective country. When notified about the issues they don't seem to want to have anything to do with resolving or even replying to the issues at hand. These guys pick up rifles for next to nothing and then turn a profit on our sorry asses. Given the theoretical low overhead, they have no excuse.Would not recommend them.
