| been buying a lot here recently-very pleased so far. they have a have price match guarantee and the selection is better than some others i've seen. shipping is fast consistent at 2 days. I've ordered a couple of things that were backordered but have gotten them ahead of the scheduled delivery date by almost a week. they also send me lots of discount codes and often have free shipping wekends. very nice trading with them. http://www.dartingaround.com/darts.html

| have just rechecked the tracking number and it is showing up now on USPS. couple items are on backorder which has become a recurring theme. I dont mind mind the BOing so much but i would prefer their point of sale to indicate the status.
I will continue to do business with them in the future since my overall expeience has been good. Decided to use a-z darts for my next purchase just to try em out. I would really like to find online retailer based here in NC or southeastern US.
still give them a score 8/10. so we'll see! |

| update- the backorder items still have not showed up and still no communication with darting around despite an email earlier this week. normally i wouldn't fuss over this but one of the item backordered is a set of flights that my son wanted for scoring a ton last week. i said screw em and ordered the flights and some other things from dartbrokers. well see which one gets here first. also backorderd were 5 sets of medium opal nylons. i got 2 sets with the original order still haven't seen the other 3 even though i beleive i saw them newly listed on their ebay site few days ago when i ordered the stuff from dartbrokers. keep ya posted |

| That sucks that they aren't even answering your e-mails!!! A-Z is a great place with fast shipping and awesome customer service the only thing I find with them is their prices are ridiculously high.. I dont mind buying flights and shafts from them but I dont believe I will ever buy darts from them. I would rather wait a couple more days and get them from one of the places overseas where they are a lot cheaper IMO. |

| got this email from jeff bowman the owner
Hello Mike,
I was sent an email from our shipping Manager about some back orders. I hope to get these in this week. Our suppliers are awaiting the items as well. Once I get them in, I will make sure you receive the items… I know its frustrating awaiting items… But, our hands are tied as well…
Let us know if you need any extra’s and I will have Mike send you some for free. Also, we can offer you a discount code for your next purchase. This will allow you 15% off your next order.
Thank for your patients and being a returning customer.
Jeff Bowman
Owner – Darting Around/DartingAround.com
must say im impressed and welcome the response from jeff. keep ya posted! cheers

| Well thats more than what some retailers would do, so that at least shows they are concerned about pleasing the customer. |
