Purchased 2 items and ship date was changed so delayed almost 3 months. Wasn't allowed to cancel and was told shipping was imminent. 3 months isn't imminent. Will not do business with OpticsPlanet again and suggest avoiding them.

Worst most poorly managed company in the industry. They dont havr what tbey claim they have, and send you yhe next best thing.......even when you ordered ab$3600 scope. Then they refuse to take your call, and you are subjected to long recordings of someone in management whining how "tirelessly" they are working to fix all of their screw ups.....i should have just stuck with midway usa, they got me what i needed with lightning fast speed. One company well managed, the other a compkete sh!#show. Stay away from optics planet

Ordered a scope. Money was paid. Received an email that they did not have product would we like to cancel. Sent the reply to cancel and no refund has been issued. If you don't have the merchandise and you know it, you should advise before you take someone's hard earned money, especially in these tough times. I have contacted, paypal and optics planet and there has not been a word of communication from optics planet. This was to be Christmas present for son. Not good!

Took 6 weeks to get the original order. One item was dropped shipped from just 50 miles away. That item was more or less worthless. I did the whole Return authorization etc. Its been 2 months and I haven't even got a noticed that they got it. Then don't bother trying to call

customer service is trash. Ordered a $125+ backpack which arrived with flaws. I immediately called them, but nobody was available. I emailed them 3 times later over times, again I got no reply. They grabbed my money while don't care the rest. Will never do business with them.

bad experience is a serious UNDERSTATEMENT!! I placed an order November 11th … I have called numerous times... on the occasion that I do not sit on the phone for 15 minutes then get disconnected, I get someone who says im sorry, I will look into it and get it escalated … so it is Now December 26th and I still sit here with NOTHING!!!!! do you think anyone will actually ship the items … I mean its only a miniscule $1200.00+ … im biting my tongue on what I really think … "incompetence" at this point is also seems like an understatement … Lets see if this last phone call actually does something the other calls have not the selections below do not allow for multiple selections. … I tried calling and emailing

Still waiting on my order. I ordered the item 2 weeks ago and it's still in processing. If it's out of stock such say something or send a email. This is my first and last purchase from them.

Planed to purchase a $5K order but feel skeptical due the low review. I decide to make a small purchase to try them out. After a couple of days it was cancel since they can’t get information from the vendor to fill out a custom form. Really customs to ship to Puerto Rico? Puerto Rico is a United States territory, and as such, USPS treats Puerto Rico as a domestic mailing destination. Therefore, you don't need to fill out customs forms when shipping to Puerto Rico. I will take the $5k telescope order with other company.

Possibly the worst customer service, Service line gives a message that voice mail messages will not be answered then says you can leave a message for a return call if you do not wish to wait on hold???!!! Told me after numerous inquiries on why my order did not process I needed to fill out a form which I did but never received any confirmation. More inquiries, no response until I sent a message that said either refund or let me know the order is processing. The order was promptly canceled. Take my advice do not order from this company, you will just be wasting time and money.

I made a purchase but they sent me a different item. I contacted them requesting that they send me the item I ordered and paid for but they will not cooperate. I recommend that you find another company to purchase from, just not worth the hassle dealing with Optics Planet.

On July 24th I noticed a $127 charge on my credit card. I called Optics Planet to inquiry about the charge, they were not receiving phone calls so I went to their website and filled out a form stating that I did not order and to cancel the order immediately. On July 27th I received a notice stating that the item had shipped. I filed a complaint with my bank and upon their investigation they were advised that they had all of my personal information and that the item had been shipped, resulting in my clain being denied. As of October 1, 2020 I still have not received the item. What Optic Planets did was they provide a UPS tracking number and then have it forwarded to USPS. I filed a complaint with the postal service and after waiting 10 days and no reply I went to my post office who told me that the package was scanned and put out for delivery but was marked NO VALUE therefore the complaint wasn’t investigated and I am out of my money & the merchandise. I have called Optics Planet numerous times and after holding for long lengths of time told to leave name and phone number and still have not received a return call.

Horrible experience. I placed an order with Optics Planet nearly 3 months ago and still have not received it. Absolute refusal to respond to voicemails and emails. I receive only automated updates telling me they are no longer accepting phone calls, but no updates on ship dates. I finally cancelled my order and will never use Optics Planet again.

Stay away from this company!!!!! Optics planet used to be a reliable company. I can't say that any more. They hold my order and tell me that it's on order but if you go on their site, they say it is in stock. Pathetic

DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY. tried to order a bipod for hunting. They said it would be a 3 to 5 day delay on shipping. It's been a month and the order status still says "order is being fulfilled" so I cannot cancel the order or get in touch with customer service. I've sent several emails and they are not taking calls at this time. Total scam! Do not use this company.

If I could give them a negative rating-I would! Horrible customer service. I ordered items and paid extra for expedited shipping. I understand some places are still bouncing back from Covid, but after 7 months and no one manning phones, no -one returning phones calls?? All you get is the standard e-mail telling you Covid has slowed them down. B.S. Other companies are answering phones and returning e-mails.

They only offered USPS shipping to my location despite the known severe problems with their local USPS Distro Center. After the item became "lost," OP won't answer or return phone calls or reply to emails.
