[QUOTE="mcnanysa, post: 2104530, member: 115008"] As a business guy, you can't charge your customer before you deliver goods and/or services. If you do, you start acting like Enron - and that ended so well for so many people - to the point Congress passed laws against it (The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002). Now, there are "reasonable" times put on those restrictions, and you have to pay attention to the "fine print" that shows up on the screen when you're ordering. Some of the sites I've seen tell you that you are giving them the right to charge your credit card immediately, so pay attention. I've had great dealings with Midsouth, too. MidwayUSA has been good about shipping and their customer service has bent over backwards to accommodate me. Natchez Shooters Supply is decent, too. I had major issues with Numrich (trying to get odd-ball parts for my gunsmithing business) when their "governor" decided everything needed to be shut down for 2020, but they finally got things straightened out and are shipping quickly and efficiently. Unless it is demanded, all of my shipping goes through FedEx. That includes all the stuff I order in. Sometimes I have to pay a bit more, but FedEx gets my shipping money first, and then UPS. I won't deal with USPS anymore, as they have proved they're beyond incompetent. [/QUOTE]
