GBFrustrating website issues Decent experience on a past order, but current website experience is frustrating using Safari browser. It fails to add items to bag, repeatedly asking user to refresh…then fails again on order submission, just sits there forever “submitting”. Had to exit, then log in again. Finally succeeded in placing order after 45 min of hassle. And I’m an IT guy.

GBPoor Experience Backcountry’s delivery provider of choice tossed my package into a neighbor’s backyard where dogs pulled it apart. Parts are missing, everything is covered in dirt, and they were only able to “offer” me $10 off my next order. I came back once after they tried to make amends for suing smaller “backcountry” businesses into oblivion, but I’m done with them now.

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.

CAPlease avoid this company Please avoid this company. Had one order, went ok. Tried another: canceled 3 days later with no explanation. Tried another: free shipping "shipped" a week ago, now apparently it's in a delivery exception in a city 300 miles away, while the "5 business day" delivery window has officially closed. Don't be fooled and just go order from the manufacturer direct or REI...
