Warning! pieceedge.com is fake!

A friend of mine talked to me about a new website that he found out about that supposedly has powder and primers that have been nonexistent for the last year. I got online today to check them out and my heart did a flutter because they did indeed show primers, all kinds of primers, and powder! Their website also has a phone number so I called it. That went straight to a VRU with a lame recording that "all representatives were busy" and invited me to leave a message. Hmmmmm.

I looked up the city where they are located and found that they are in Sonoma County so I called the SCSD and spoke with a Deputy who is also a reloader. He had never heard of them and went to their website and traced the phone number while I was waiting. He reported back to me that they are bogus.

So, I figured that as fast as info travels via the WWW I would get on here to warn my fellow long range shooters about this.

I guess the old saying is true "If it looks too good to be true, it probably is."

Watch out for scammers.

This is becoming all to common.

Thanks for doing the detective work and posting your findings here.

Just like optics and ammo; a number that is constantly busy and a message that never gives a callback.

Probably totally legit, and the SCSD deputy just bought out all the primers after he hung up with you....silently thanking you for the heads up.

Quick search doesn't look promising. tried going to the website and its now an FTP asking for credentials to log into it.
