KALINKA as a Supplier

[georgep]

ANYONE have an insight on these folks? Ordered a Scope on 12/3/2012 and NOTHING but the royal run around.

BBB gives them an "F"...

Some people have no problem with them and others have nothing but trouble... If what you order is in stock, you generally don't have a problem.

[Schuetzenman]

Oh you poor fellow! I suggest you try to cancel the order ASAP. I've read too many horror stories over the years about these people. No shippment, wrong shippment, get something it breaks is under warranty and can't get a replacment or a fix from these people. Avoid at all costs is my take on them.

If you can get it anywhere else I would advise using that other source.

Dang, I was kind of hoping to get some vintage style gear from them.

Sounds like it's not worth the risk.

One of the members here just ordered a scope mount last month and got what he ordered shipped quickly... Others have VERY different results.

ORDER #1 Last year was here in about 3 days. This one was BACK ORDERED , then

May I please have a shipping date and information, thank you.
NOTHING since then

[El Laton Caliente]

If I couldn't find something anywhere else, I'd call them and varify it is in stock or get a notice when they had it in stock...

[slamfire51]

I've ordered AK scope mounts, rails and a few other things from them in the past.
ZERO problems and items shipped fast.
I don't know what's going on with them now.

[El Laton Caliente]

I've been wanting to order a zoom scope from them, but like I said, only if they varfy it is in stock...

[georgep]

They said it was IN STOCK when I ordered. Now it is NOT so I started a reverse of charges to wake them up. I have sen (11) pleas fro answers between fax and on line. I gave up. Midway can get what I want, $250.00 more but they have it.

Number is FAX and never get a response from that at all.

[georgep]

Started BACK CHARGE with my bank

[mrkalashnikov]

FWIW I've done biz with them several times. One time ordering a Russian-made scope mount, another few times ordering Russian milsurp gear.

Quick delivery, good merchandise in my case. Sorry to hear about all the issues.

[georgep]

Money was REFUNDED by my bank and I ordered the night scope from Midway will have it by 1/17.

[georgep]

Why I buy from Midway, NO BS, Night scope was here EARLY and as advertised. Now I have to learn how to use it.
