Deadred1 Posted January 11, 2006 Report Share Posted January 11, 2006 Ok, so ive searched the site for peoples opinions on Evike and i couldnt find anything good. Are they a good store? Hows their customer service? I just need to know how they are b/c im thinking about buying an AEG from there. They have great prices and package deals, but i wanna make sure there not gonna give me crappy service and stuff. Pleeze help me out! Link to post Share on other sites
HawaiiIceMan Posted January 11, 2006 Report Share Posted January 11, 2006 their bb ordering service is great got my bulk package in 2 days! Link to post Share on other sites
Zephyranthes Posted January 11, 2006 Report Share Posted January 11, 2006 Ordered from them. Got my package promptly. They don't answer emails though. Link to post Share on other sites
Badly Browned Posted January 11, 2006 Report Share Posted January 11, 2006 Yeah, they send out your order quickly, but your lucky if they answer their emails. Link to post Share on other sites
Rapier Posted January 11, 2006 Report Share Posted January 11, 2006 And a lot of the info they list on their site is total BS. Be sure you double check facts on the stuff before you buy from them. They are reliable to get you your order though. Link to post Share on other sites
Zephyranthes Posted January 11, 2006 Report Share Posted January 11, 2006 And the games they host are pretty cool. Link to post Share on other sites
Deadred1 Posted January 11, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 11, 2006 Kool deal, thanks guys. i think ill be ordering from them very soon Link to post Share on other sites

They are reliable to get you your order though. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Quoted for truth. That's what I was gonna say. I will add that their shipping is kinda hit or miss. I placed an order with them on Jan 1, still haven't received it. Other orders I placed a week later have already arrived from the west coast. Turns out they didn't ship it until the 5th. That's the third business day after I placed the order. Maybe it's not their fault, but meh... You can call them though, and since they're on the west coast if you're anywhere else it's easier to call them in the evenings and still talk to someone. Link to post Share on other sites

I always choose the free shipping and still get my stuff in a week or less. Link to post Share on other sites
bernie3674 Posted January 11, 2006 Report Share Posted January 11, 2006 look my sig, sponsor by Evike.com, so, they are really good, the shipping is quick, and they have a walk-in store, and sometime I hang around there Link to post Share on other sites
Duke Togo Posted January 11, 2006 Report Share Posted January 11, 2006 They're ok, I bought some stuff from their walk-in store. They're good with helping to host games in the area. My only problem with them is that anything that isn't made by a name brand like Marui, Classic Army, G&G etc, gets their generic Matrix brand name. Link to post Share on other sites
PILMAN Posted January 11, 2006 Report Share Posted January 11, 2006 i've ordered bb's, gas, and other minor stuff from them their good. Link to post Share on other sites
Oleander Posted January 11, 2006 Report Share Posted January 11, 2006 Make sure what you're ordering is in stock, just by saying it is in stock on their site doesn't necessarily mean so. We've ordered MICH helmets from them over 3 weeks ago, they were supposed to be in stock, no email no information about shipping, when we contacted them, they say sorry the item isn't in stock. Another guy that plays with us ordered a CA M15A4 carbine from them, he got it 3 weeks later and was missing the metal flash hider. Link to post Share on other sites
Gene Posted January 11, 2006 Report Share Posted January 11, 2006 Yeah, they're good and stock a lot of stuff. Good shipping, nothing breath taking. But again, they won't answer your emails. Link to post Share on other sites
HebrewMobster Posted January 11, 2006 Report Share Posted January 11, 2006 i've ordered from them several times. They are pretty reliable, my only complaint is the amount of time stuff takes to get to me...then again i live on the east coast Link to post Share on other sites

bigphish038 Posted January 11, 2006 Report Share Posted January 11, 2006 Evike is awesome. Free shipping on orders over 50 bucks. Shipping is medium to fast speed too. They take FOREVER to answer emails though. Link to post Share on other sites
hivemind Posted January 11, 2006 Report Share Posted January 11, 2006 Evike is awesome. Free shipping on orders over 50 bucks. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> WHAT!?!?! I just spent $170 with them and I didn't get no stinkin' free shipping! Link to post Share on other sites
eviltinky Posted January 11, 2006 Report Share Posted January 11, 2006 They're good - but hard to get hold of on the phone sometimes. Last week, I got my UTG MP5 (not the Matrix 5) with G&P MP5 hi-cap, BBs and free shipping (total =>$100) from Evike. E.T. Link to post Share on other sites
Gene Posted January 11, 2006 Report Share Posted January 11, 2006 It's free shipping on orders over $100 IIRC Link to post Share on other sites
Oracle Posted January 11, 2006 Report Share Posted January 11, 2006 Ugh....East Coast is such a drag... So Deadred, might I ask what AEG you're buying? Just curious... Link to post Share on other sites
Deadred1 Posted January 12, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 12, 2006 Well, ive looked around and i think i might purchase the ICS full stock m4. i like the spring release assist button and the split gearbox since it will be easier for me to repair and/or upgrade. TMs dont have metal bodies and CAs need to much mantinence for me. i shoot actual reel steel guns alot, so i dont want to have a plastic body, but i dont wanna have to baby my gun either. i dont have the money to spend on repairs and stuff all the time like other people. and im not saying im want to be able to throw my gun in mud and expect it to work or anything, i just dont wanna have to spend tons on repair.

arivee Posted January 12, 2006 Report Share Posted January 12, 2006 Since I have a few Evike belivers here - can anybody give me feedback on their AIM M4A1? They are selling it for about $160 and I'm considering purchasing it. Do I believe the 'review' they put up or is it a total load o crock? Its supposed to ba a TM clone and iirc Redwolf was carrying it too - considering Redwolf doesnt exactly carry the cheap stuff there might be some merit to consider with this gun. Your feedback will be very much appreciated. TIA! Link to post Share on other sites
StewieGriffin Posted January 12, 2006 Report Share Posted January 12, 2006 Tomorrow I'm planning on buying a UTG M87SA shotgun. Evike has it for a few dollars cheaper than Shorty or Airsoft Atlanta, but I'd like to know what their typical shipping costs are to find out if I'd actually be saving any money compared to the other sites. So if anyone who's ordered from them could tell me what your shipping charges were that'd be great(especially if you ordered a gun of similar weight to the UTG(3lbs)). Also, do you think because of their lack of customer service, I'd be better off ordering from somewhere else in case my gun is a lemon and I need to return it? Thanks in advance, any help will be much appreciated. -Stewie Link to post Share on other sites
hivemind Posted January 12, 2006 Report Share Posted January 12, 2006 Shipping on my KWA Glock 17, a can of gas, and extra mag and some lube was $10.44 to New York. Regardless of shipping costs, their complete lack of communication means I'm not ordering anything from them again. It's not worth saving a few bucks to feel like you threw your money into a black hole for two weeks. Have I mentioned it's now 12 days after I placed my evike.com order and nothing's arrived yet?
