Sounds like those who went into a store and bought them in person might have been the only ones to come out of this with shells. Shame, it was a real good price. Almost like finding gas for less than a dollar a gallon.

Just received an email conformation from Cabela's containing tracking information for my shipment. Sorry to those whose orders were cancelled. In my opinion it would been money well spent by them (Cabela's) as an act of goodwill to honor the orders. Shutting off the sale is one thing cancelling orders is another.

I called Customer (No) Service and got no love.
I say we get the torches and pitchforks.

I am in the same position as Ken. My computer order indicated the shells were in stock. I think its just the back orders that Cabelas is reneging on. Bad Business!...Geo

Overnight, I got a confirmation that my shells have been shipped, including a tracking number. My buddy who ordered about 90 minutes after I did, got a cancellation. Could be they just ran out of inventory. I was on the phone with another buddy while he was ordering and his computer showed "backorder" at the same time that my computer showed "in stock." System may have been overwhelmed.

My buddy ordered just minutes after I did and they cancelled his order. As stated earlier I received confirmation of shipment this morning. Bad deal!!!!!!

My order shows as cancelled as well. I inquired by email; interested in the response I get. Oh well; only ordered two flats and didn't really need them. Not gonna lose any sleep over it.

Simple fact o' the matter is that none of the negatives expressed here has remotely affected the stock prices; it just went up 10% today on rumors of an imminent or possible buyout by Bass Pro.

Regardless, one cannot buy the components in today's market to make 28gram reloads utilizing new shot for the price quoted, inclusive of FREE labor(!); that tells me it was an honest mistake. Happy for those whose orders were honored; respect those that were cancelled, if there was, in fact, wording to the effect that they were NOT required to honor printing errors.

Com'on people, we all know that you cannot even buy the components to load a box of 1oz. reloads that inexpensively in the present market.

Gimme a break; some hit home runs, others hit fouls. Its life, get over it.

Do garage & estate sales if you need to look for treasure. Who knows(?), it might even werk .. now and again.

My out in the tulis order must have gone through, I show a pending payment to C and no cancelation notice, will have to keep an eye on it.

That really has nothing to do with why the big stores sometimes offer products at below what we think is the cost of production, Gary. They make decisions sometimes that seem dumb to us. Academy had boxes of 10, Rio Bismuth, 3", 1 1/4 oz., #4s, yesterday for $11.99/box, online. They knew what they were selling, and honored the purchases. I think it's a pretty good bet they were selling them below their cost. Why? Who knows?
