GBDISHONEST RETURNS DEPARTMENT I just ordered a pair of shoes from backcountry.com. I had them on my feet for about 60 seconds before determining they were too large. I immediately boxed them and mailed in a return. Backcountry in turn gave me a store credit rather than refunding my original form of payment. When I called to ask why, I was told they were received back "dirty inside and out." I told them this was absolutely not true, to which they replied that the receiving department documented that they were. I asked for photos. They had none. I questions the honesty of their returns department. It is either their standard response in order to retain funds or they are employing dishonest persons on the receiving end of returns- can't help but wonder if those brand new shoes are now being worn by an employee who documented them as "used." For the record, item was shipped back within 24 hours of receipt. Again, No photographic proof from backcountry showing a used product. Customer service is outsourced and agent refusing to let me speak to a supervisor.

GBTerrible user expererince Terrible user expererince. Received wrong size, reordered correct size which took about 35min over the phone. Was waiting over 1 week, item never arrived - they knew already that the product was missing -hoping I'll forget. Apparently no replacement articles in stock anymore but lets not call the customer. (damn it, I noticed the item didn't arrive)

GBWarning: DO NOT Buy From Them!! Where to start, as so many issues! Did not give me 15% off on 1st order as website promises. Did not ship Xmas present (snowboard and bindings ) order until 10 days after ordered (ordered 9 Dec, shipped 19 Dec). Customer service (Gearhead ) could not explain why order shipped so late, why discount not applied, or why website stated Free 2 day shipping but they gave me 3 day shipping when order finally shipped today. I have no clue if I'll even get correct board and bindings, as so many other reviewers did not get what they ordered. My overall experience was horrible. Do NOT recommend this company!

GBDo not EVER order from Backcountry Do not EVER order from Backcountry. I ordered four jackets to try on for the upcoming ski season. My package was never delivered and I've been disputing the $1,434 charge with Backcountry for 4 weeks now. I've spoken to 5 different representatives. They said it is above the threshold of paying me back, so now I'm in the middle of disputing it with my credit card. Backcountry is not worth the hassle, you are better off ordering from a different company. Terrible customer service.

GBWorst option for gear online We shopped here a lot in past years but as of late the store became complete trash. Prices are high, the site's flooded with their own brand garbage products, shipping is ridiculously slow, and customer service a complete joke. Another business down the drain, don't get ripped off like we've been and spare yourself the aggravation.
