Poor 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.

Frustrating 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.

WRONG SHIPMENTS, CUSTOMER SERVICE CLUELESS Ordered a hat yesterday, got an email with a picture of a completely different hat being sent, I call customer service and they describe to me the hat in the shipment and describe a 3rd totally different hat. Last time I ordered from them was a T Shirt, they sent me a bike part and then wanted me to pay to ship it back to them. They've totally lost their way, avoid them!

Absolutely Impressed Several times while shopping for sporting goods, I've found Backcountry has the best sells. I bought a helmet that was too small, and the return process was a breeze. Staff are friendly, they respond quickly to messages, and shipping is so fast it's here before I close my computer. Will continue to give Backcountry my business!

Do not give backcountry your money Do not give backcountry your money. I placed an on-line order on January 12 that was split by backcountry, after being repeatedly assured that I would receive the second part of the order. Over two months later and I do not have the second part of the order. I have sent over 12 emails and of those which received a reply the “gearheads” showed poor customer service by making excuses over and over so as not to honour the order. Do no waste your time or money with backcountry.
