Value for money

Several reviewers say they were hit with surprise fees, sale prices that disappeared, or shipping charges even after meeting free-shipping minimums.

Carl Bowlus 4/5

I placed an order for 9mm ammo nearly 2 months ago and still have not received them. It seems like Sportsman's Guide won't deliver any of it and they are not ready to give a refund either. All along I kept on getting emails changing the ship dates as I get close to the estimated date. I have been doing due diligence and I just learned today that they canceled it citing they didn't send it on time and now they are asking me to reorder again. What a bs! Not happy with this order not being shipped having spent over $10,000 on this site for other orders. Never had this happen before but I'll never spend a single buck on them ever again!
