    I ordered a Minnkota Terrova with i-pilot at the northwest sports show from our “friends” up in Walker, MN. I was led to believe that they bought up all they could and had them in stock and that they would ship that Monday, here it is a week later and still nothing. The order I placed from Bfishin tackle last Friday morning was at my door step today. Somethings not right!

    I call and discover that…. wait for it….. a shipment of them is due in tommorrow and will mine will ship out on Wed. Of course the check was cashed a week ago. Meanwhile I have been passing on overtime to be around when it shows up or so that I can get it installed. Now I am beginning to worry about getting it in time to qualify for the $100 rebate! That expires on the 15th.

    Guess I have had good luck with them when I stop by the Onamia location on my way north. This is my first and probably last mail order item from them. I am just P.O.’d that they told me the things were in stock and would ship last week.

    Guess I can go to bed now that I know the thing won’t be showing up today. GDI!

    I feel your pain because I ordered a terrova on the 25th of march and have yet to recieve it. The place I bought it from sent me an e-mail stating that their shipment from MinnKota was delayed. When I ordered it they said they had 10 in stock, strange . They took my money the instant I gave it to them and all they could say was we are sorry for the delay. Maybe they weren’t filling me full of doodoo. I want to get that trolling motor mounted in the worst way and will probally have to take a day off of work since I work 2nd shift . Hopefully things turn out for the best, Dan

    They pulled the same crap on me when I ordered a SnoSuit
    from them.

    It seems to me they pull this stunt to capture the sale
    and I think it’s wrong. If it’s not in stock they shouldn’t
    let the order go through as though it is.

    Here’s my 2 words for Reeds Sports…….”NEVER AGAIN”!!

    I’d go HERE and print out the form, fill it out so it’s ready to go. Note the date – Postmarked April 30th. If you don’t have the motor by then, I’d send the rebate form with a note and reciept explaining the problem in delivery.

    Don’t worry about Reeds, they will make it right whatever happens. Long time customer.

    I know somebody that ordered snosuit bibs from Reed’s. There were supposedly in stock when ordered, but were on back order when it came time to ship. Every inquiry was met with “they are still on back order”. They never did get the bibs. After a month plus, they just asked for a refund.

    I ordered mine from wade couldnt beat the price free shipping no sales tax that saves at least a hundred right there. He didnt give me a line of crap just straight answers and item shipped faster than expected will definately buy from him again

    I know, I know, I should have ordered from Wade. Was simply a case of falling for the “yes, we have them in stock and going fast” line. I knew Wade’s site mentioned he was out of stock and waiting for restock. Will give this a couple days. If it does not show up by the end of the week I will drive up to Walker myself to get a refund and get in touch with Jolly Ann. The comment about the sno suit that never arrived has touched a nerve with me.
