Does anyone remember the acog deals from Amazon over the holidays? Those weren't fake deals...however all the $.01 deals were canceled as they were obvious mistakes. I have a feeling Eotechs have a huge profit margin when sold at their retail price. This model is also missing the qd mount. trying to rationalize the low price 
I got a few of those Amazon ACOG deals, Amazon was definitely losing money on some of those sales, especially the big ACOG/RMR combo. I'm sure someone here would be able to say whether $281 for the XPS2 is below dealer cost, I am assuming it is, my instructor price for that model is $301. That model is not missing the QD mount, that is just the way XPS model are made, EXPS models have the QD. I'm guessing this will not end well, not sure how big of a company USCav is, but I bet they don't want to take a loss on hundreds of orders. |

Your bank immediately holds the funds to give to the company when they are requested. It's a charge when it posts and is no longer under pending. |

Only the small portion of butthurt people will go through the trouble to complain, the vast majority with pleasant, normal experiences will not post a review. I agree. Take all negatives with a grain of salt. Those 27 bad reviews spanned 6 years, they prob did 20,000+ transactions in that time frame. Satisfied people don't go through the trouble of leaving reviews on third party sites...you dang well believe people with bad experiences will 100% of the time. That being said I am 99.999999% sure we aren't getting these Eotechs (or many of the other items ordered). |
