My TENDA Experience

deadlydelta said:
Hey good review Dave. Im gald to see a positive review for once on this site.
I have purchased a ton of things with Tenda over the years and never once had an issue.
Im starting to think bashing Tenda is just a CGN pastime.

Well you’d be wrong. Every time someone “bashes” Tenda it’s because they’ve had an issue with them. Far more than most dealers. Just because you’ve gotten lucky doesn’t mean others don’t have a right to complain about the poor service they’ve received and warn others.

Ha! Made me laugh.

Like the cut of your jib. I agree with the sentiment entirely.

I've had mostly good experiences with all the CGN dealers I've dealt with. Tenda has been positive.

Don't see the need to insult another member or dealer just to be a contrarian. Especially now.
 
Order submitted March 29th
Email confirmation that info was sent to CFO Ontario
(CFO going super slow)
Email sent April 28th trying to get an update
*no answer*
Tried to call April 30th
*no answer*
Never bought a firearm from them before so im a little worried. I know CFO is going very slow but when I looked at my RCMP account, it says no transfers pending...
 
Make sure you are home when your firearm arrives...I bought one from tenda the other day, it was left leaning up against the front step of my house. I would have thought that would be an item that would require a signature!!! They were good to deal with though, just seemed weird to me, & I was fortunate that it wasn't lifted from my front step!!

Well as of today the RCMP are closed to gun transfers siting a update , which we believe to be the new laws coming in tomorrow , I would think there will be no answers till at least Monday but thats just a guess

I made my purchase before I joined this site and with all the TENDA negativity I might have not ordered through them , I dont believe anyone is complaining for no reason obviously there is something wrong

My post was my experience no more and no less

It’s more of an issue with Canada Post than Tenda. Because of Covid 19, CP mail carriers are avoiding any direct contact with mail recipients. Just received a NR from a different dealer this week and it was a brutal experience. Not because of the dealer but because of CP.

As for Tenda, over a dozen orders for me with them over the past couple of years. Not a single thing wrong with any of them. I will continue to shop there without hesitation.

See now this sounds about right when it comes to Tenda and their outstanding customer service......

The post office doesn’t ask for signatures and some of the couriers are also doing it
 
You can say what you want about Tenda but they might have the best prices in Canada. If you guys know of someone better I would love to hear it.
 
Ordered a G44 on March 23. Have yet to be shipped. Called Tenda in the first week of april, waiting for Transfer. Called again April 27, still waiting for transfer. they told me they just received transfer approval for march 14/15 orders.
not impressed
 
I thiiiink my experience with Tenda was good, but I'm not 100% sure.

Ordered a thing. It was in stock. Paid for the thing.
Couple of days later I get an email saying my item (in stock when I ordered it) was now not in stock. And they refunded my money.

A few days later I order something else. It is also in stock. I pay for the thing.
Couple of days later I get an email saying that canada post won't ship my thing to me because I'm north of 60. And they refunded my money.

So, they're not very good at getting things I want to me, but they are very good at giving me my money back.

I feel very unsatisfied - I didn't get my stuff, and because they gave my money back so quickly, I've been cheated out of my god given right to whine and complain!
 
Unfortunately, that's not on Tenda. CFO in Ontario is going super slow right now. Im glad you commented though, I now know transfers from march 14/15 orders are getting approval. Only 2 weeks before my order!
 
Sorry guys but it's already Friday. Thursdays are the Tenda complaint days. Fridays are reserved for BCL, Saturdays the 102, Sundays are reserved entirely for bear protection, Mondays for Norincos, Tuesday for Tokarevs and Wednesdays are for price gouging.
 
Love shopping at Tenda, the new website looks great. Now waiting for a sale to get a certain pew pew as dealing with COVID-19 budget sucks ;P
 
Not sure why you would post a glowing review of a company who simply just did what they were supposed to do...

You gotta remember that Tenda does ten times the business everyone else does though. I've had a few orders through them and had no problems. I use their prices as the standard when shopping because 9 times out of 10 they are the cheapest.
