That is a good deal!
I just talked to them on the phone and they DO have it in stock. $11.60 to ship a case from Cali. to Florida. Not bad. Edited to add: No tax on state to state. Best deal I've ever seen. |

Good deal, but I wont buy from them ever again.
Make SURE its in stock when you place your order. They have a bad reputation for taking orders then notifying you after a few days that the products are out of stock and will be shipping later. I waited 2 months to get an "in stock" item from them. |

Thats an outstanding price on the Winchester .45 ACP ammo, too.
Six bucks for a box of fifty. Last case of 500 I bought cost me $105 plus tax. Didn't see any Q3131A offered. Must have pulled it. |

Look at the prices on some of the other ammo though! Hornady XTP in .40 for 2.95 a box of 20!! and those badass slugs for $3. Yeah it sucks they don't have the 3131a on there, but I'm buying feed for the 12 and .40 like right now!!

Just got an email from Botach stating my order of one case of Q3131A had been rejected because they are sold out. I confirmed with them over the phone that they had it in stock right before I ordered.
Oh well, I guess I learned my lesson about dealing with Botach. |

yea..we'll see how much they actually ship...if any. i've dealt with them before and was given the runaround and all kinds of excuses and conflicting info regarding my order.
even so, i felt compelled to order 800 rounds of hornady 40 based on this thread. -r |

Botach probably had only 5 to 10 cases. It should be sold out the first hour or so. It is a good advertising ploy. Just wonder how many horror stories coming out of this. |

I was hoping they wouldnt pull this shit...
]=( This is why I DO NOT BUY FROM THEM!!! I don't mind a product being sold out and placing an order I know will come late, but to place and order and be excited for something only to find out I wont be getting it, or it wont come for MONTHS! really pisses me the F right off!!! I'd rather pay extra for something I need ASAP then sit around waiting. For that matter, I would rather pay more for something, than buy it from these guys!!! GAH!!! Sorry the shit fell through, but if you've dealt with them before, then you know it's typical... |

They should change their name from Botach to B.O.H.I.C.A., much more appropriate.

Botach has fucked me before. I once ordered ARMS mounts from them and, you guessed it, they were out of stock and didn't tell me. Did the same thing with an M3 mount I ordered in August 2001. Out of stock and didn't tell me. I waited and waited and after I called them, they told me they would issue a credit. Never did. THREE MONTHS later, the mount arrived. Bastards. Maybe we should all call their 1-800 number and piss them off.

Maybe we should all call their 800 number on a rotation basis? Somebody post it. Run their damn bill up or block their lines, whichever. And yes they got me too, several years ago.

For all who have yet to learn that if it sounds too good to be true...(it just might be)
Winchster wholesale price to distributors is $20 higher and that's buying 500 cases or more. We give away a case from time to time in contest's but we never sell below cost. The only reason for this reply is to stem the flood of e-mails to me wondering what's up with Botach.We have it at $179.95 delivered. In stock! No excise tax! No credit card surcharges! No shipping charges! That's the price to your door. Eric the ammoman |

BOTACH has pulled that crap on me before but apparently I never learn. I took advantage of their 10% off everything Christmas sale and placed an order in December. They shipped all but one item, but only when I called after 3 weeks to find out the status of my order.
That one item on backorder is bought and paid for and was charged to my credit card, but here I sit STILL waiting for it. [:(!] |

I took a chance and ordered ten boxes of the Hornady 75Gn "match" BTHP. This is the second most accurate load in my CAR-A3 and usully cost 11.50 to $18.00 a box. Botach is selling it for [b]$4.00[/b] a box.
I also ordered two boxes of Winchester Ranger 127Gn +P+ 9mm at $15.00 a box. This stuff is very hard to find and usually sells for $25.00 a box. Best 9mm defensive ammo ever. I placed the order online last night. Went to Kinkos and faxed a copy of my driverss license and liability waiver form. This morning I got a confirmation Email that said all my items shipped UPS ground and they provided a tracking number. So far, so good. I just wish I could have got some of that 40SW for $2.85 a box before it sold out. |

I placed an order for 2 cases of Q3131A yesterday before anyone posted any replies. They said all they were waiting for to ship was my ID.
We will see what happens. Goatboy, on items that were delayed by 2-3 months, did Botach honor their sale prices? Or did they screw you over? I guess a 2 month delay is OK, but I don't want them if the price goes up too much. I have plenty of ammo as it is. |

Gud Dumit I ordered 6 boxes of the 45 ACP. It was 6 bucks! I did this before I read the rest of the comments. Got an email from these jokers, guess what "out of stock". Do they deliver on o/s/ I can wait but if they bill my card before shipping I will be kinda pissed. Why would these a holes do this?

What they didn't tell you was that they only shipped ONE BOX of the ammo, and the rest is "out of stock." |

Actually, Bohica / Botach has a real good SCAM, yes I said SCAM going. They advertise, you buy, they get your money to finance their purchases (kinda like a float, huh?), so that their capital stays liquid. (Hey Lord Trader, is that the right term for what I'm trying to describe?)
I would like to see someone post a thread were they got what they ordered from Botach as advertised, without waiting or having to made repeated phone calls inquiring about status. AR15fan,have you called UPS or whoever and checked on the status of the tracking number yet? |

I had to send them my info twice before they got the order ready. If I had not been persistent I would have lost my order. It seems that the fax machine doesn't get checked regularly. I had no e-mail correspondence either. I now have a positive tracking number with UPS. |

Well, with Botach it's hit or miss. I've had some transactions go smooth without a hitch, and some go on backorder or get cancelled.
If any of you SoCal guys ordered more ammo than you need, I'll be glad to take some off your hands. I'll even drive to pick it up. [:D] |
