kudos to SWFA

rogue_rob
Well, Mrs Rogue had bought me a Burris Landmark spotting scope for christmas off of ebay. The seller was SWFA riflescopes inc. As of a week or so ago, I hadn't received the scope. She jumped the gun a little bit and opened up a dispute. The rep from SWFA contacted her/us and explained it had been shipped and he didnt appreciate the dispute since she hadn't really let him make it right beforehand (She wanted me to have the scope for IED spotting and sniper searching so she was in a tizzie over it)

ANYWAYS, I emailed the dude and explained the situation THEN we figured out that the APO my wife sent him was the wrong number........ yeah I felt like an ass.

But these guys, after exchanging a few emails, resent the scope (no additional postage even tho I offered) PLUS the guy said to make sure I opened the package cause he sent in some extra stuff with it.

THIS guy from SWFA had put in a bunch of jerkey, sunflower seeds, dip, and a few other little things. Overall it was about $50 bucks worth of goodies. It's amazing what some people will do for you. Plus the scope was friggin NICE it's a landmark spotting scope with a hard case and tripod included. Hope it works good in the turret.

Damn shame I had left him bad feedback [;)] (joking haha) I left him some flowery feedback lol.

Hope y'all are doing ok today and

GOOD MORNING FROM BAGHDAD!!!!

Rob

    I've done business in the storefront.
    Those guys are GREAT and they have everything in stock.

    I bought 2 SuperSniper scopes, several Burris Sig. rings, a Burris Fullfield II, and several other items over time there.

    I get to avoid shipping 'cause their close.

    SWFA is a good organization,..they bought the patent on the Super Sniper scopes and now produce them.

    Hedog, yeah she's still deployed and she extended after I came down on orders to come over here. She'll be back in July after spending 2 years on active duty in the National Guard. I'll be back next November.
    I'm on a National Police Training Team here in Baghdad. We're outside the wire quite a bit and she wanted me to have some good glass to use in the turret.

    now I'm smokin "legal" cubans haha. If I can figure out how to get em home, I may have to do a give a way.

    Hey Rob,

    You posted once a long time ago that you read the Destroyer series of books the same as I did. I don't have any of those left but I do have plenty of Clive Cussler books on the shelf if you want somthing to read or know someone who does.

    Just email me an address and I'll send them your way.

    Hope you are BOTH doing well.

    Sounds like everything turned out OK with SWFA.
    That was a nice gesture on their part.

    Stay safe.
