I have ordered thousands of dollars of products from this company over the past couple of years. Botach is a great source of those “sometimes hard to get” items and equipment that I rely on a daily basis in my line of work and play time.
If you are an AR-15 (M16) and all the clones fan, SIG SAUER SIG 556, etc. GET THE H&K SA80 magazines. They are built like a tank! It is true you pay twice as much for it over the aluminum and plastic magazines, but I can not emphasize how great they are. NEVER, NEVER, NEVER have I had any type of malfunction or failure, associated with an H&K SA80 magazine. Colt, DPMS, Bushmaster and all of the other “so called” “Mil Spec” magazines that are out there, H&K is the greatest! At $39.95 as offered by Botach, the H&K steel magazine are a steal compared to $60 or more everyway else. With this information, you better snatch them up and as many as you possibly can afford. It is worth it even if you have to go into extra debt to get them. They will never let you down.
Yes, they (Botach) are not the best communicators in the world.
They (Botach) will never return emails, NEVER.
Yes, you have to be tenaciously persistent to speak directly to a customer service representative and sales associate if you call by phone. Don’t leave a message; they (Botach) will not call back.
Yes, items are sometimes out of stock. Face it America, GUN STUFF is getting harder and harder to find as the upcoming “Revolution” or “Civil War” gets closer to fruition. The rest of us that has any common sense who can see the writing on the wall and are stockpiling so we will have the ability to take our country back from the idiots that want to make the government larger and more intrusive than it already is.
Yes, I hate their (Botach) return policy as it only allows something like two weeks to have the item/s arrive, evaluate it and decide if you need to return it or not. My worst complaint was I bought multiples of the same item and by the time I discovered one of them had a manufactures' defect, it was beyond the return policy. After explaining the situation to a CSR over the phone they still would not allow me to return it for a replacement.
Overall, my rating of Botach, when they have something, it is usually at the best price out there with decent shipping fees.
Once I was double billed for the same order on my credit card. Mistakes happen, I understand, it happens. I brought it to their attention and they did not quite fix it fast enough for my satisfaction. Botach got a little upset with me because I guess the credit card company gives them some grief and adds extra charges. The explanation I received was they have a very thin margin of profit and every penny counts. It all worked out for me though. As a consumer, a consumer that purchases products online, you have to stay on top of all transactions.
Nevertheless, Thanks Botach
and
Thank you Sagi.
I will be back for more I can assure you,
