Ok, Like everyone else always on the lookout for primers and powder. Ran across this place in the search. Primer House 2365 Black Stallion Rd. in Walton, Ky. They claim to have primers and powder. Thought I'd check it out before placing a order. I tried to make contact through email and with a phone call. No response on email and phone call got me a very strange Mideastern sounding person. Not getting a good feeling at all on this place. How about you all? Has anyone dealt with them?

Let's see. Banner says "The Primers House". Good English. Opening page has a picture of a full gun rack against the wall - but they don't sell guns. Why not have a photo of a pallet of primers if you're "The Primers House" and that's really what you're selling? Probably because they have never seen a pallet of primers.

Doesn't look like a place I'd engage with.

Yup, I got suckered by both The Primers House and by the Gunners House, supposedly in California. When I kept asking about my order, Gunners House removed the instant chat function on their website. As mentioned by a previous poster, I live and learn by my mistakes. I had done the ordering on my phone instead of taking the time to research these places more thoroughly online.
Oof.

We all get financially snake bit once in a great while as Web power shoppers... I have never entertained anyone requesting a cash funds transfer, albeit I understand why a potential legit vendor would want the buyer to absorb all the financial costs vs. using a credit card transaction. Oh, until last week... I am ashamed to say it, but bit on ReloadingSupplies.com who allegedly had Fiocchi 209 primer supply and used PayPal and looked legit. I checked fraud detection sites relative to Reloading Supplies and did not see any confirmed fraud reports, nor anything that indicated they were nefarious. So, I chanced it and placed a small quantity of primers, just in case this might be a black hole. Sure enough, they wanted PayPal cash transfer to a personal "cashier" site. With reluctance I executed it with trepidation and a couple days later got a benevolent response: "Sorry the 'cashier' is having issues with their PayPal account and to cancel my transfer, we will give you another address to pay." As everyone knows who uses Zelle, PayPal, etc., once the transaction is executed and not in pending status you can't cancel or call back the transaction, which this scammer is well aware. So, beware, add ReloadingSupplies.com to the ever growing list of fraudulent component and ammo sites. Yea, I know... Stupid is as stupid does... You are never to old or experienced to be had.
