I feel compelled to add my experience to this discussion as I made a purchase recently from Minnkotamonster.com and had no problems. I ordered a Minn Kota Terrova 55/AP from them on 5 March this year. My account history with them showed the product was ordered on 8 March. I sent an email to the [email protected] asking what they meant by “ordered”. I promptly received a reply from “Jason” saying “I am out of the office right now but I will contact you when I return. "Ordered" is just a note for the warehouse and staff”. This satisfied me, as I was not keen on waiting for a backorder. During the week of 7 March I kept checking my account to see if there were any change in the order status. There was not. On 15 March I called 913-713-8367 and asked about the status. They checked immediately and answered it would be shipped that day. Indeed it was. I received the UPS tracking # etc., and the package arrived 18 March. I found the time period from ordering to receiving the trolling motor reasonable. I know that buying over the Internet is not instant gratification. I have waited longer for stuff bought from outfits like Cabelas.

Since I live in Minnesota I have to wait a while longer (ice-out end of April) before I can check out my new motor. However, I hooked it up and did a “dry run” and it works like a charm! Can’t wait to do the real think though!

Good Fishing To All!!
