I don't even mention anything anymore lol.

Last time I went in there, I was asked where have I been?

Nothing like a warm welcome to make ya feel even more comfortable in ya favourite shop.

Holy shit this Dave guy sounds awesome!

He sure treated Armed Force personnel good

Top notch retailer.

I've gotten kit there that I can't get through the CF supply system, at decent prices. They've also managed to find items I've been after that haven't been produced in years, again at very reasonable prices. And I thought I had good contacts! I highly recommend these guys.
On a side note I was in there when I was home for the Christmas holidays. They just received an absolutley huge shipment of all sorts of Cadpat gear they had custom made. It was hard to move down the aisles to look at stuff without tripping over it. That to me is the sign of a good retailer, to go that far to get customers the things they want.

I love these guys they are awesome! Also, shipping is included for online purchases. Although when I get a recite with my package it states that I did pay for shipping, however the final price stays the same.

I bought a Liger belt from them and order it the wrong size. As in, I decided to get one that was far too large on me. Not only did they take it back and exchange it, the next package the sent me had a $20 in it to comp me for the shipping I had to pay (which was actually higher than the shipping cost) to send the larger one back. I'm not sure what kind of margin they have on that belt, they may have even taken a loss.

That's how far they go to treat their customers right. Great retailer staffed by great, down to earth guys.

So far with Dave's I'm not willing on saying good things or bad things. I ordered a couple items (two hats) on Jan 8th, and still have not received them. I have called but no answer on their phone number listed on their website.

Emailed them, no reply, phoned them, no pick-up.

So.... I can only assume I've had bad luck with them. I'll be calling them a few times tomorrow if I don't receive an email today.

Aqua have you tried logging in an checking the status of your order?

I ordered a new sling two days ago, Dave emailed me that he was out of stock, but offered the upgraded (read padding) model for the same price.

I've logged in and checked my order. I can't see much in the way of a status of the order, this:

Order Date: Tuesday 08 January, 2008
Shipped To: Chris MyLastName Products: 1
Order Cost: $15.74


Delivery Address
Chris MyLastName
530 MyAddress
Saskatoon, MyPostalCode
Saskatchewan, Canada

Products
1 x Propper MultiCam Patrol Cap
- Size: Large $14.99


Then my billing address. That's all I get.

the reason it is taking so long is because the hat you ordered is out of stock. i ordered the same hat on jan 3rd. i emailed them twice with no reply so on jan 14 i called. it took a very long time (10+ rings) but eventually someone picked up.

i do know those hats are out of stock, but still try calling he may still be able to get you a compromise. my HSGI Wasatchs weren't in stock in the colour i wanted, so he a more expensive in stock version at the same price.
