I did not have a good experience with them, but that is just me so your mileage may vary.
I placed and order, it was canceled ( can't pay for mags with PayPal) but it took 4 days for them to let me know. Then I paid with visa, and they canceled again because they would not drop ship some mags to another state for me (ny CC billing address), which took 4 more days for them to tell me. 8 wasted days. I placed and order with AIM and it shipped that day. |

better then PSA right now  This is beginning to sound like the truth. I have ordered a bunch of small stuff from Botach over the years with no problems, but purposely kept it small because of all the problems I read about with them. Last two orders with PSA were not good - still waiting for any kind of confirmation from the first one which was over a week ago. I know they are busy/swamped, but still, at least an order confirmation would be nice. |

Quoted:
I bought M&P mags and G19 mags during their month long 24 hour sale back in October. The M&P mags came in 5 days, the G19 mags were backordered, came 3 weeks later and came without OEM packaging and stuffed loose in a USPS bubble envelope. Did you buy the magazines to use or do you just buy them, put them in a glass case and look at them, maybe show them off to your friends? If it's not the latter then I'm failing to see the issue here. |
Right, good info there|

I ordered a Leupold scope from them for my AR and received an email it was on factory backorder. Ok, no problem. Two months later no scope so I sent an email. Received a reply it was still on factory backorder. Hmmm, kinda' odd that Leupold is on a two month backorder so I email Leupold.
"Nope, plenty in stock." I forward the Leupold email to Botach. Magically my scope showed up in a week. I think Botach mispriced the scope and was hoping I'd let it go. |

The only items I expect oship within 1-2 days are prime eligible items. Everything else I expect ebay like service.
As for Botach, They are GTG. Me and my brother have had good experiences, and I got my MS3 sling within a week from them, and they are shipping across the country to me. |

LOL I love these threads. I just replace "Botach Tactical" with "Anal Gonorrhea" in my head every time I read them. "Hey guys, is Anal Gonorrhea GTG?" If they're going through Amazon, they have to meet certain criteria though, right? Enough negative feedback and they're booted? |

Botach is always good to go, or at least no worse than anyone else. Most of the people that talk shit have never ordered from them and are just parroting internet myth(yes now everyone who has ordered from them can tell their little story how they got ass raped by them).
So let me see if I get this.... you ordered something online 4 or 5 before Christmas and.....well if Botach or Amazon don't screw your plans then UPS will. |

They were an advertiser here for awhile. They had a constant, constant steam of complaints,charging for what was not in stock, not refunding money for ages, never shipping stuff they had been paid for etc. they came here with a pointman, he was really a salesman for their firearms, but he said he would cleanup other problems. Nope even with a guy on the inside they just could not fill orders. They just are fuck ups, always have been, they got their money refunded and were removed from the site. |

I have bought from them without a problem using caution. I called and asked abut what they had in stock and ordered only what they confirmed "in stock". This was several months ago, well before the panic. I wanted some FDE, FOL and BLK 20 round Pmags and placed my order. A couple days later they emailed me saying they were out of the FOL and offered to ship immediately if I would accept BLK. The whole order arrived a few days later.
My brother ordered a Leupold scope and ended up cancelling his back order after 3 months. YMMV. |

Typical Botach experience:
Order item at too good to be true price Credit card gets charged immediately Wait Wait some more Ask where item is and be assured it is coming Wait Be told item is out of stock and order cancelled Wait Wait some more Finally see credit card charges refunded I swear, I don't think Botach actually sells shit. I think they just live on the float off a million different orders. |

Doesn't botach try to sell fake chinese magpul stuff as legit magpul gear? I read a bunch of complaints about that when I was looking for a magpul RSA on amazon that a bunch of people were shipped fakes through botach from amazon marketplace.
Counterfeit August 30, 2012
By EER Amazon Verified Purchase 0 Stars not possible. I pulled this out of the box at 2:00 and put it packed it back in to return at 2:10. Thread stripped almost instantly. Would not fit on YHM or Midwest industries rails. Was not standard flathead screw, but a smaller SAE hex. Sent pictures to Magpul where customer service rep Daniel Hunter confirmed it was a counterfeit. Seller was Bar Kochba M Botach, the owner/operator of Botach Tactical. http://www.amazon.com/Magpul-Rail-Sling-Attachment-Black/dp/B004HXH6I0/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1359571884&sr=8-1&keywords=magpul+rsa |

This is what I got from Botach about a week ago.
I had ordered 10 pmags, Looks like now it will be just 3. To all our valued customers, botach-xxxxxxx The last 60 days have been a real challenge for us and all the people in our industry. We are doing our absolute best to ship orders, answer emails and phone calls in a timely manner. Please Note: Even as manufacturers are slowly starting to release goods we are NOT getting nearly enough products to fill the massive orders we received. In order to be fair to all our customers as product arrives, we will reduce quantities on hi-capacity magazines to a maximum of 3 per customer, as we have received orders of higher quantities than we can offer at this moment. Be advised that due to the high demand we are unable to provide ETA on magazines and all related products. We are constantly receiving shipments from various vendors and processing orders on a first come first served basis. Your credit/debit card has NOT been charged until your order is ready to ship. We appreciate your support and loyalty, Botach Tactical |
