“In July of 2020 I backordered 1000 rounds of .223 at 36 cents a round. They have continuously canceled my order multiple times on me and continue to push it back. Originally it was supposed to come in October, then December, then January and now April. They have the rounds listed on their website for 70 cents now. They have lied and continue to push my order back so they can take money from other people and not fulfill my order”

“WHY CAN I NOT GIVE THIS PLACE ZERO STARS! This company is the absolute WORST. They saved my credit card from a previous order and billed me for something I never ordered or received months later! Cannot be trusted at all!!!”

“DID NOT FILL AMMO ORDER AND CANCELLED WITH NO NOTICE. Ordered July 2020 cancelled Feb 2021 I bought ammo o July of 2020 and had the typical issues of backorder notices that covered all the way to March 2021. I recently logged in and saw the order was cancelled... I called and ask why and got some bogus answer that "we sent you and FTC backorder notice and whether you wanted to continue with the order". When ask what date, they could not give. I pulled all emails and there is none on that subject. I also informed them I called in Jan to check on the order and ask questions - they had no answer. They said "vendors" could not get the ammo to them... When ask when they would have ammo in, they did not know, but backorders would be filled first and then others could buy what's left. However, mine would not be a back order anymore. They would not reopen the order either. Here's the reason why---- I bought 5.56 ammo in July 2,000 rounds for 759.00. Need I say more????? DON'T GET SUCKED IN BY THE MEMBERSHIP - THERE'S REALLY NO VALUE TO IT. Go to Amazon or use a coupon at a local store and get just as good of deal. This was a total waste of time and may be for you too....”

“Mixed results with SG. Member prices are comparable to retail non member prices tend to be high. My concern is they sell product claiming it is in Stock but later either cancel the order or push off delivery weeks or months. I am still waiting on orders placed 6 months ago. While I understand there is high demand for certain items but do not sell what you don’t have and don’t lie about product being in stock!”

“Wish I would have checked this company out before placing an order with them. Ordered ammo in early July of 2020. SG has never delivered the ammo and just keeps pushing out the delivery date. They have pushed it out four times now. What a terrible way to do business.”

“Do not order from sportsmans guide. I ordered ammo on backorder, patiently waiting months for it. I decided to check status one day only to find they cancelled my order because I didn't notice an email amongst the many spam emails they send. Meanwhile they still have the membership $ they charged me. Scam company-don't fall for it.”

“I’ve used this company before and never will again. I had ordered some ammo and have what over 6months and was supposed to get it 1/27/2021 and I did not receive it. When I asked them about it they said they cancel my order because they didn’t hear from me when I talk to them and got that date from them. They told me I could re order now at 4x the price don’t wast your time or money on this company. I have since tried to contact them and they won’t get back with me at all.”

“I became a member before ordering ammo back in August 2020. I ordered 1000 rounds of .223 Winchester for $389 and 260 rounds of .223 brown bear for $66. Fast forward to October and my shipment date was placed for December 23. Fast forward to January and my 1000 rounds of .223 Winchester was canceled and my brown bear .223 expected ship date was pushed to March. I know they are just hoping I’ll cancel the brown bear order because now it is going for $180. They want to sell if for that price since demand is higher now. But that’s not my problem and sounds illegal. I want to sue them.”

“Placed order 11/20 pushed out to 4/21. 6 months to wait. I’ve ordered ammo from other companies & received it in 2-6 weeks during this high demand. S&G is a scam company”

“Placed several orders which at the time were IN STOCK! None of them have arrived more than a year later! I paid an average of 35 cents per round at the time and now prices have gone up. These scamming thieves are prioritizing the current highest bidders instead of honoring their current orders which would be fine if there was NO promise of service and goods in exchange for a membership fee! Im canceling my fee and seeking a refund! Will never buy from sportsmanguide again”

“Horrible company to buy from! Most importantly they let you order stuff online that is not in stock then send you a cancel order on your email.. if you see it good if not oh well your order is cancelled and your just there waiting for a package that will never show up. Do not order anything from this site seriously....”

“Ordered 5.56 mm ammo in Sept 2020. Was told it would be delivered in February. Now the update is it will be delivered in July2021! There’s is ammo available at about $1.10/round. I paid 67 cents/round. Clearly they are gouging the system and hope I will cancel my order. I will not! But after this is delivered I will never order a thing from them again.”

“This place is a scam. They list items in stock and lie about delivery dates. I cancelled my order (which was instock) afyer 2 months of waiting. They then told me I lost my 40$ coupon because I cancelled the order and they couldn’t issue me another 40$ coupon even though I warned that through points from spending money on their card. I don’t understand how their business practices are even legal. It also took me weeks of trying to call to finally speak to some one. Be prepared to wait on hold and after around 40 minutes it disconnects you. This has happened to me countless times”

“Ordered a box of rounds back in August 2019. Was backordered until Jan 2021. Come Jan 2021 received another message stating the 500 rounds are delayed until April 2021. This is gross negligence. Even our local dealer here receives thousands of rounds 2x per week. If your logistics setup can't field 500 rounds to one customer in nearly half a year it's broken or doesn't care. Do not trust any back orders through this website.”

“They just keep delaying orders..... then they delay them some more, and then they delay after that.... looking at 9-12 months at least, in fulfilling an order. Why even offer product if the wait time is long.... Unacceptable and pathetic”
