    Midway USA warning

    Just a heads up

    They are running a "sale" on Carhartt stuff

    I needed a couple more pairs of pants for the farm and thought with free shipping over $49 I would take advantage

    They TRIED to sneak a $6+ supplier shipping fee in on me but the bottom line didn't add up

    BUYER BEWARE

    I had a similar thing happen the other day from their email. They had a rifle rest with a "free" rear bag. When you put it in the cart it didn't qualify. Then shipping was extra as well. WTH.

    Had a problem with Brownells also. The had a one cent hazmat on powder. It checked out fine but they charged me an extra $20 dollars when they shipped. I called and got it straight. So yes you have to watch them.

      I bought some ammo a few weeks ago and almost got me on the shipping. I had to enter a code at checkout to apply the free shipping

        I bought something small from Midway a few years ago and a 500 brick of 22 Ammo ended up in my box for free.

              Not really deciept. They show a free shipping code and you have to put it in. Kinda if you don't, it's your fault.

                No caca. Actually the link from the email lets you apply the code at the beginning.

                  I did put the code in

                  shipping line said FREE

                  Had another line that said "supplier shipping fee"

                  So I guess if you didn't put the code in they would charge you 2 shipping fees

                  Chicken **** move in my eyes but maybe some are ok with the tactics

                  BTW a quick Google search found me a bigger discount than the $5 "sale" they were having

                    yepp, been done the same way by all of them, sometimes not all items are eligible for free shipping, i definitely learned all those tricks the hard way! i won't get so upset that i let a good deal slip by though, i just watch them real good now. i just got a screaming deal on a case trimmer that was on sale at Midsouth suppliers, and Midway still beat their price by 40.00 with free shipping.

                      Strange...I have never had any issues with Midway. Always got great deals and customer support from them and even a day after I ordered once. A free shipping code appeared. I called, asked and they applied it to my previous order and I got a credit.
                      I will be on the lookout. Thanks.
                      Caveat Emptor.

                        I used to check them out for ammo from time to time but I also had little fees pop up once i checked out so I stopped using them. Regardless, GrabAGun.com is the cheapest ammo i can find anywhere so I use them. Best part is since they're in Coppell, I can place an order online and run over and pick it up for free.

                            Dang, I've had nothing but good luck with them through many years of use.

                              They are quick to ship and standard shipping is at my door in 3 days. I cant say that about any other business besides Amazon.

                              I have had to keep an eye out for the codes and hidden fees but I guess I order so often that is second nature!
