Boat cover sale!

Re: Boat cover sale!

Mine shipped yesterday and had a tracking number last night.

I can see that happening to Rooke.....Hundreds of orders pouring into the system all at once and sometimes the computers can't keep up.

They had 2 covers like the one i bought.The other one was a different color and by the time i ordered mine that other cover was shown as out of stock.

I know if i had not logged on and bought mine at 8:58 am Eastern time it would be gone.
About every one of them was gone by 9:30 out of the list of 114 covers.

Sorry Rooke....Too bad you had bad luck buddy.
It happened to me last year when they had the same type of sale.
At least it was good service that they called you and let you know.
I agree it sucks though man!

Man, I just got back from traveling for work. I scoped out the deals over the weekend but left for Chicago bright and early Monday. Obviously the deals were gone by the time I checked in Monday evening

Re: Boat cover sale!

Sorry for the profanity. I was just blowing off steam. I was super stoked to actually order the bimini top . I received an order confirmation. I received a estimated shipping date. They had charged it to my credit card. I ordered this bimini top the night before Cyber Monday (Sunday night) at 9pm. This wasn?t even a Cyber Monday 9 am Madness sale. I also called customer service on Monday morning to confirm the order and asked how many boxes it would be shipped in just to be sure . If they would have told me when I called them , I would have tried to get a cyber Monday sale. I know I can judge iboats solely on this order and I do appreciate that there customer service called to inform me of the problem. But common . Iboats has been active for over 10 years

Re: Boat cover sale!

Hmmm I thought your bimini purchase was a cyber monday purchase. Therefore I was assuming that iboats didn't have a proper timing/tracking system in place to handle low-stock items in multiple people's carts. I thought it lame that they'd let all these people check out and charge their cards only to sort 'em out and issue refunds later. Now that I understand yours was an order from Sunday night, I'm more inclined to believe it was an honest screw up with inventory or something like that. Sorry about your luck and it does suck since it kept you from ordering one of the monday deals.

I got the preview email but nothing for my boat on there.

Re: Boat cover sale!

Got a Whaler one for $69. My Whaler doesn't have rails (the cover does), but we'll see how it fits. I only need to cover it in the fall to keep the leaves out; it stays uncovered otherwise.

..and I received it today. Quick service! Now to see how it fits....

I just picked up a cover for my jon boat, $59.

Looks pretty picked over right now, but might be worth a look-see.

Re: Boat cover sale!

Only a couple left.....for smaller boats.
All the others are sold out already.

Man,one was a cover for a 36ft Cobalt for 79 bucks.I bet the person who got that was thinking they stole it..
