Buyer Beware...Wild Bill's Concealment Leather

[G23/40]

I've had a few dealings at the gun shows with WB.
However at the last few shows someone else has been selling his gear at their table...Not WBs table but another vendors table.
I thought they had been bought out or something.

I had a similiar problem with National Bullet Co. I called VISA after almost a year, and they said I had gone past the deadline for complaints. The Visa rep sounded like she couldn't care less.
I charge a lot of $$$$$$ on Visa, so I wrote them a letter. Sure enough, they got me my money back.
Lessons learned: Don't wait too long to file a complaint, and don't be put off by uncaring phone rep. Take the time to WRITE. It saved me almost $100!!!

Wish I would have done some research on this guy before I ordered. Has been nine weeks since my order was placed and despite numberus attempts to reach him via email and phone, I have only been able to get one response. "It will ship next week". Two weeks since that and still no holster. I can't belive that this has happened to so many people, for so long and nothings been done about it.

Northing's been done because he eventually delivers the holsters. He just doesn't do it in a timely fashion.

I found this thread about 2 months ago when I started having problems with WB. But, I'm patient so I let things go until now.

I bought several "In Stock" items from Bill at the Dulles Expo gun show in November of 2008. One of the items, a double magazine pouch is the issue. He had one out which I tried and liked so when I told him I wanted it he grabbed another off his rack. When I got home I took it out and saw that one of the snaps was broken. I thought about going back to the show but it was close to closing. So I called the number on his card, left a message for him. Never heard back.

About two weeks later I called again and spoke to a guy who said they had a problem with the snap vendor to send it back they would replace it. I did.

A month later I called and they said they received damaged one back it would ship out "the next week". I am reading this is a common response. January came and went..no magazine pouch. Left several messages, emails, no response.

I give people the benefit of the doubt. You have to show me you are not trustworthy. So probably going to be out $60 plus shipping. But, I am still going to contact the gun show and let them know of my experience.

Finaly got in touch with Wild Bills and was told they were backed up, they were sorry and they would overnight it to me. Low and behold the next day I got a package from them, Holster and belt but, no mag pouch. Called back, they awnsered, they promised it would be overnighted to me. Quality is good, belt bled all over my jeans though.

I should have checked the forum before I placed my order with Wild Bill, as it would have saved me a lot of time and money. Bill has done it again. This time he has taken my credit card information and triple charged it, once on 11/4/08 and again on 11/12/08. I received my order in mid-December, but it was only half of the product. I emailed him immediately, and he said he would fix the charge and ship complete within a week. Needless to say, it is now March, and after about a dozen emails to him with no response, I have come to the conclusion he is simply a thief. I have reported him to the BBB and am contacting VISA to report his apparently common frauds (based on the prior postings on this site). I am also going to go to the attorney general's office of NC and see what they can do.

I STRONGLY urge anyone out there to NEVER use WILD BILL again. He is a proven crook.

It is time to have this guy criminally prosecuted. This is beyond mere a mere civil matter now. He has engaged in crimes and needs to go down for it. I don;t think he is allowed to charge for services not yet rendered, and for sure cannot charge amounts greater than what was agreed to by both parties. Get law enforcement involved and everyone else you can think of.

I ordered gear from Wild Bill's on the recommendation of a friend. Then I saw this sight and freaked out. Here is my story...I ordered two holsters, a belt and a mag pouch on April 7, 2010. I was charged on April 12, 2010. Lo and behold on April 15th ALL of my gear arrived in superb shape and is extremely well constructed. I am sorry others had problems but maybe now he has hired more people and has his problems sorted out. Hope others have this good an experience because from my inspection this is quality gear and should last.
God bless the USA.

Picked up a paddle holster this past weekend at the C&E show. Got a well made top quality holster for my CZ75B right off the rack. Fit and finish top notch. Would buy from them again.

I found this thread unitentionally when I was looking for Wild Bills website. I bought two leather paddle holsters from him at the gun show in Charlotte a couple months ago. Awesome product but after reading this thread I dont think I will be ordering one from him online. Hopefully he will be at the next gun show because I would love to get another paddle holster for my 1911.
