OK, everyone says
how GREAT Tackle Warehouse is so I just placed my VERY FIRST order with them. Why? Well, I keep hearing how great they are and I am getting very tired (as is everyone else) with BPS - especially - and Cabela's shipping charges. And, those two big boys seem to be pushing their own brands more and having less of the name brands in stock - especially in the store. Local shops like Dick's rarely have what I want. So, I looked over TW and they had several things I wanted, prices are good and free shipping seals the deal. I do not believe this will be a one-and-done deal, if I get my monkey bait in a week I will be a regular customer. TW owes my monkey a small bonus.

I don't think you will be disappointed at all with Tackle Warehouse. I occasionally buy stuff from Bass Pro still, but only if I need it really quick and don't have time to place the order and get it in from Tackle Warehouse. Their prices are more than fair, and in some cases way less than anywhere else I can find it. Free shipping over $50 is awesome, and if you wish to upgrade shipping on orders over $50 to next day or 2nd day you can do it very cheaply. I always have my orders in 3 or 4 days from when the order is processed with standard shipping.

Have had great success with TW.
My monkey found them a while ago......still smiles everytime I bring them up. If you find a cheaper price let them know. They have matched EVERY price I've thrown at them. They run the site, check the price, then match. The shipping SEALS the deal! Good luck on your order.

Well it's a minor issue and I'm not going to stop dealing with TW, but I'm torn whether I like them listing on their website "HOW MANY ARE IN STOCK". It's nice - IF IT'S ACCURATE - that way you don't order stuff that is out of stock, and they give you an approximate date they expect out of stock items to be available, that saves the aggravation you sometimes get with the big boys when your order is processed then they inform you how many items are backordered - I don't particularly like that. But an item I ordered indicated there were THREE in stock - and guess what? Right, it's not available, everything else, though, was. I think I like it even less when I'm getting information an item is available, so I order it, then I'm told it's out of stock. Yep, I'm liking that less. If they are going to indicate numbers in stock - they really should keep that updated and ACCURATE otherwise don't do it at all.

Nothing but a positive experience with TW, and they offer a Military Discount to boot.

I had a couple of items that when order arrived I had a back order listed.
Called and was told, "We try to keep at least a dozen more than shown on site but at times there are over 50 people ordering on line at the exact same time. They all want the same thing but obviuosly they run out. Especially during sales." My back order came 4 days later, free shipping cause original order was over $50. I asked if I could add to the 'back order' cause I forgot one or two items. They allowed me to add and total came to like $15. Sent it free shipping with the back order.

I've had nothing but positive experiences with TW too. The only time I will ever order from somewhere else is if TW doesn't carry the item.

Now that my wife no longer works at BPS I rarely get my gear anywhere other than TW. Just doesn't make sense to drive to the store and waste money on gas and taxes and more expensive prices when I can order from my couch and if I really want to I can spend $10 and have the stuff there the next day. I normally do 2 day delivery, still cheaper than taxes.

I have no doubt you will be greatly satisfied with TW. I've been buying stuff from them for about 3 years now and they have taken good care of me. I only had one issue with a purchase I made there, but it wasn't the fault of TW. Rather it was with the Spro company and their lack of shipping out product to TW.

Another satisfied TW customer here. I don't know if they still do it, but I have got gift cards on their numerous 20% off sales during the year and then ordered later when I got the time to do inventory. If there's a national holiday, chances are there is a 20% off sale with some exclusions as the norm (Shimano, Lucky Craft and some others).
