Just got notice from Buds that order for Accurate No 5 was cancelled because it's out of stock just like happened to Dub in reply #5. Buds also told me shipping is now taking up to 15 days to ship instead of their 3-5 days normal shipping time. I think that's pretty crappy to show the powder in stock when I ordered and then cancel informing me it's out of stock. I doubt I'll be ordering from \buds again.
Powder Valley is getting orders filled nicely. They tell you right up front of what is in stock and what is not. They also tell you right away that they are working off a shipping backlog, but they do show frequent updates of which days ordered are currently shipping.
As far as I can tell their prices haven't jacked up....but then again I don't order powder all that often.
If Buds does exceptionally well on guns....especially if you'll use their "price drop" feature and keep an eye on it. I've never had a problem with them that didn't get resolved swiftly and to my satisfaction......with gun orders.
Can't say the same about some of the ancillary items like components, magazines and such. I think @leoparddog nailed it above. They simply are simply routing the powder to you from other sources....nothing in their own warehouse. Guns.....different story (most of the time).
