My TENDA Experience

[EL34/6L6]

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.

On average, they're $5 cheaper on a $50 item and $50 cheaper on a $1000 dollar item. Big deal...
I'll pay the difference and order from one of five other site sponsors off the top of my head that are just as big and who handle just as many orders or more...and do so with much better ordering/inventory accuracy and customer service.

Don’t know and care much about Tenda. But since you had been collecting for the last four decades and sold nothing, might share with us what milsurp you own and would like to sell?

Thats right never was involved in any gun forum , when i asked a friend about purchasing a handgun he lead me here , I have never sold a gun and still have all my purchases from my old cooey singles till now

Why do you find that strange ?

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.

Hahaha you just proved my point that bashing Tenda is a national CGN pastime. Ive had horrible dealing some of the dealers that people praise on here. Do I start a thread complaining and bashing that vendor becuase it didn't go exactly how I wanted it. Nope I dont. I act like a grownup and simply use my wallet do the talking. If you dont like Tenda than dont buy stuff from them.

Ordered my pistol early April .. nothing heard back yet! Been a month. I got my confirmations and notes sent to me but when I replied asking a question it went on deaf ears. I assumed it would take a month so we'll see what happens in the next few days.

I ordered a CZ pistol from them almost 2 months ago and still haven’t received it, or heard anything. No reply’s to emails or answering phone calls.

10x the business, 20x the issues.

I’ve had bad experiences with others as well. Difference being usually it gets dealt with before you have to take it online. Tenda’s communication is such garbage people are left with no other option.

Emailed my order and PAL info on April 21
This was my first restricted purchase so extra time was expected
Received it today May 7 , only problem is it beat my RPAL and ATT so still waiting

TENDA has preferred and much quicker transfer approval rate than regular people, which is NOT fair. I received my documents from TENDA with 2 weeks. I just sold a gun and waited over a month. CRAP!

How the heck did you manage that? I just made my first purchase and its well over a month, they took my money, but haven't returned emails or anything since. Several attempts to contact them.

I dont know it worked for me , I never talked to them just the order and they sent updates as it moved along , it only took the BC CFO two days to approve

Im just wondering if it what you purchased that is taking a while because i bought another Sks and some more 7.62x39 ammo.
I ordered on May 2 and received it on May 7

Ordered a rifle 4 May, got it today in Alberta. That’s pretty quick.

 

[Moosealone]

I bought 2 restricted firearms from Tenda and the experience was pretty good.

 

[Timotree]

Day 12, bought a type 97 and some gear on the 30th, Shipping label made on the 5th. today's the 12th and they have not handed over the rifle and gear to Canada Post yet.

First time buying ammo from any retailer. T/A was about 5 days, pretty happy with it.
