"I will never make a purchase again or recommend this company to anyone. My item was on backorder, they offered me a refund and I accepted. Then I was told I would recieve no refund and would have to wait for the item. I asked for a refund and was denied. I used google checkout to make the purchase and I am taking action with google as we speak. I will take action with my bank if the problem is not solved to my satisfaction. If you want to get the best deal like I did, next time spend a little more money with a reputable store. I will buy this item from cabelas if I ever get my money back."
"It appeared that this store had excellent selection with great prices and shipping. Once I ordered an item that was listed as 'in stock' with free shipping, I waited and waited to receive a notice that it had shipped. I needed the item by a certain date or it was of no use to me. After 2 weeks went by with no word from the company I contacted customer service. They said they were sorry but the item had been placed on Back Order and they would ship it as soon as they could. I asked them to cancel the order since it would be too late by then and they apologized and said they would do that. 2 more weeks later I got notice that the item had shipped via Fed Ex and my card was charged the full amount. I called Fed Ex to refuse the shipment and then called Boaters World to complain that they had ignored my order cancellation. They apologized a lot but said that my cancellation order never had been submitted. I told them that I had the email from customer service stating that the cancellation would be sent to the warehouse. They had little to say to me after that and I suspect that they willfully "forgot" to send the cancellation as a way of fraudulently collecting charges on a cancelled order. Sure enough, THEY REFUNDED THE AMOUNT MINUS THE SHIPPING COSTS!! They stole $7.00 from me! I will never do business with this thieving company again!"
"On Saturday 1/23/10, I purchased 3 "ProMariner Universal AC Plug Holder White" from Boaters World on Ebay. At first I was reluctant because of the negative feedback here at ResellersRatings, but they had a pretty good feedback on Ebay, so I took a chance. After placing the order, I received an email instructing me to call for order confirmation. I thought to myself, here comes the bait and switch! To my surprise, I was told everything was in order. The items were shipped on Monday 1/25/10 by FedEx Ground and I received them on Friday 1/29/10 in Alaska. I wouldn't hesitate placing another order with Boaters World through Ebay."
"I took a chance on this retailer even though they weren't yet listed on resellerratings.com. Purchased a Magellan SporTrak Pro for an excellent price and got delivery within a few days with no problems. Very pleased since I usually don't take chances with vendors. Nothing to complain about here. "

"I love boaters world. I bought a gift certificate for V-day and it was a bit confusing that part of it. Otherwise my husband ordered a boat sterio the next day and it is pretty nice- very fast shipping. Anna:)"
"I purchase 2 Penn Captiva CV6000 reel / 9' 2PC surf rod combos on Sunday(10/9/05) and received them on Tuesday(10/11/05). Shipping was very quick and the price was $40 cheaper(saved $20 on each) then a well known sporting goods store. I was very satisfied with my purchase and would definitely do business with them again."
"ON 4/15/11 I ORDERED A $497.00 RAYMARINE HAND HELD AUTO PILOT REMOTE. I WAS TOLD THE ITME WAS IN STOCK VIA THE 800 NUMBER AND WOULD SHIP IN 1 0R 2 BUSINESS DAYS. IT I NOW OVER A WEEK AND NO SHIPMENT CONFIRMATION. THEY APPEAR TO HAVE AN OFF SHORE CUSTOMER SERVICE AS THEIR REPRESENTATIVES HAVE NO COMMAND OF THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE NOR DO THEY HAVE ANY INFORMATION. I WAS TOLD THE ITEM "MAY" SHIP NEXT WEEK...GO FIGURE...I'LL GIVE THEM ONE MORE WEEK THEN I OFF TO AMERICAN EXPRESS TO DISPUTE THE CREDIT CARD CHARGE..."

"Totally unprofessional customer service. Was advised to call them to confirm my order, I did that gave the necessary details they put me on hold for a second agent. He spoke to me for a few minutes and proceeded to hang up on me! What a waste of time! DO NOT BUY FROM THEM!"
