T3CH Posted June 5, 2013 Report Share Posted June 5, 2013 Snap. I haven't being waiting just as quite as long as you have, but I stumbled across the recent postings of ACMGear being dead stop after I placed my order the other week. I had no issues before with my last two orders so didn't think to check - usually shipped within 5 days but it seems they have gone a strey recently. Seems like since January things have gone very very wrong. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
seaweasel Posted June 6, 2013 Report Share Posted June 6, 2013 No problems with my first order last year, was about to place another one but might hold off now if there have been a lot of problems recently. Main reason was their super-cheap flashcaps, will see if the likes of tiger111 have anything similar. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

T3CH Posted June 7, 2013 Report Share Posted June 7, 2013 I got a refund so I'm happy with that, pity about the crappy service and communications though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Smoke Posted June 7, 2013 Report Share Posted June 7, 2013 I got a refund so I'm happy with that, pity about the crappy service and communications though. Ditto. Painfully bad service. I'll not be bothering with them again. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Deadmeat Posted June 7, 2013 Report Share Posted June 7, 2013 I got the same message and it would kinda explain why there has been a recent hiccup in their processing.... I'm prepared to wait a little to see what happens... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Isamu Posted June 8, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 8, 2013 Dont like changes in ownership... all my orders were fine and any issue was promptly solved, but the message we recieved exlains why my last one was soooo slow to be shipped. Hope the new and old owners the best of lucks, just hope the new one keeps the shipping prices as low as usual, lowest by far in any HK shop to date Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Cannonfodder80 Posted June 10, 2013 Report Share Posted June 10, 2013 I got that email too, it would explain the issues over the past month but these problems have been going on for 6 months or more Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Deadmeat Posted July 3, 2013 Report Share Posted July 3, 2013 Got my notification last week. Received my order today and everything was fine! Can't really complain considering the prices are soooo low Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Greg Head Posted July 22, 2013 Report Share Posted July 22, 2013 I've bought from them before & received the order with no problems, however I placed an order for a pistol grip on 26th June but heard nothing from them at all. I contacted them via their ticket system 2 weeks ago but have had no replies, last week I started a paypal dispute with them & yesterday paypal sent me message saying the case was closed because a tracking number has been supplied. Unfortunately the tracking number indicates that the destination for my order is South Africa not the UK. I have contacted ACMgear today asking what is going on, but i don't expect a reply, I suspect the only reason they supplied the tracking number is to get the paypal case closed. I must admit I don't really know what I can do, guess its back to paypal. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Greg Head Posted July 22, 2013 Report Share Posted July 22, 2013 Just checked my paypal account & ACMgear have refunded my money (I did tell them in my last email that I would contact paypal again). ACMgear still haven't sent me a message telling me the money was refunded, in fact they haven't communicated with me in any way at all. Don't think I'll shop with them again.

NonEx Posted July 22, 2013 Report Share Posted July 22, 2013 What a shame... They used to be alright. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Deadmeat Posted July 22, 2013 Report Share Posted July 22, 2013 I received my last order a few weeks ago. There was the message to explain that there were new owners so please give them another week to get themselves sorted which, all things considered, they managed to do! I had one item missing from my order as the flashlight I ordered was out of stock to which I received my refund at the weekend... a little late but not too bad... I reckon they have been taken over by Airsoft Park... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MeNz Posted July 27, 2013 Report Share Posted July 27, 2013 Wierd, never had a problem with them in the past. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
