Link? The Marstar drama seems to be abating this week.

What Marstar drama?

The most recent ones:

  • a guy ordered 129lbs worth of bullets for reloading (5000 of them if memory serves) and when they came, the boxes inside a big box containing the bullets were beaten up, loose, etc, some of the bullets were just in bags, and thousands had come loose and mixed together (different calibers). Everyone accused Marstar of shipping it incorrectly, although UPS shipped it and God knows they've broken things and repackaged them shittily.

  • This post was quickly deleted, but some guy accused Marstar employees of meeting him in a field and selling him a Benelli M4 with counterfeit/off brand parts.

  • there was a bawww thread about wanting John to stay since he posted he instructed his employees to reconsider participating on CGN.

I can't decide who to hate now. I think I will flip a coin.

I won't be shopping at either. There are plenty of great shops in Canada that offer a worry free buying experience; Wolverine being my favorite.

Wolverine is awesome. Good prices and the service is great.

Sounds like typical CGN drama, the meeting in a field would make me skepical to say the least.

Luckily I never have bought from marstar, probably because their ordering system has been nonexistant up until recently, they would rarely respond to questions, and less than 5% of their site is in-stock. It's basically just clickbait, I don't even bother to check anymore since so much of it hasn't been in stock for the last 4 years.

The "meeting in a field" post actually changed my perception about how CGN interacts with Marstar. Too many people have axes to grind about John, and that post showed how far people will go to shit on them. There is no way it ever happened.

I always get the feeling that Marstar's commercial domestic business is just a side project when it comes to total revenue.
