Default Lewis and Clark "fly shop": what's the deal?

I had the same exact problems! Although I initially received part of my
order (60%) the rest I am waiting on. I ordered in November! I submitted
claims to the Upstate BBB
(http://search.buffalo.bbb.org/nis/ne...04100002100361
2), the NY State Attorney Generals Office for fraud
(http://www.oag.state.ny.us/online_fo...aint_alert.jsp) and sent a
request to ALL the major NYC TV stations investigative reports. I urge
everyone to do the same so the Attorney Generals office will have multiple
complaints.


I assumed the went bankrupt. But what really got me was I noticed they've
updated the site (specifically the "Whats New" link) since I've placed the
order. I've tried for days to email and call with zero response. What
chutzpah!

I placed a small order with them last winter. It took just this side of

forever
to get here. I had actually forgotten about the order until they emailed

me
confirming shipment, apologizing for lateness, claiming ilness had

slowed them
down. I got everything I ordered, but it took a *long* time. With good
suppliers like Ezflyfish and Hook and Hackle around, I see no need to

deal with
Lewis and Clark again.


Thanks to those who responded to my question. I got some personal
e-mails as well, and it seems like there is a consensus. I will not
be doing business with Lewis and Clark again.

To clarify one thing: I have had nothing but good luck with all of
the other suppliers I have dealt with (Walt's shop, Hunter's, Hook &
Hackle, etc.). I tried L&C because of one particular item that they
offered that I couldn't find through any other online suppliers.
While I was placing that order I decided to add to it with other
essentials. (You all know how that goes. :-)

Never again.
