Ridge Runner

Mine came today! Really like the texture. Not was I was expecting at all. Wasn't able to get it on a tree but tomorrow I'll put it through its paces.

Yea mine came in today as well. The texture is not what I expected at all. Not saying I won’t like it just don’t want it wearing on my pack is all. I haven’t gotten it out in to a tree yet but I will be doing that tomorrow in the morning and hopefully for an evening hunt.
 
Seems like they shouldn't advertise as "in stock" if they aren't ready to ship.
I have to say I never ordered or purchased deer stands or equipment just before the season or in the middle of it and expected rush delivery. I am sure they gave you a time frame to receive and if it was not to your liking you canceled. Look at it this way, if they are behind on orders maybe they have a quality product that everyone wants. They received their orders as they manufactured them. When orders exceed the stock as has happened delays are created. Am I to understand that if they stated not in stock or delayed you would have chosen a lesser platform for prompt delivery. It is easy to criticize when you are unaware of what the company is experiencing. Might be an issue with shipping or the supplier of their raw material so they can't crank out the product. Need to be patient or DYI if you are in a rush otherwise do without or go elsewhere. Would any of us want an inferior cookie cutter Japanese or Chinese mass produced platform to rely on or do we want a quality product that might take a bit longer then we thought it should. Just a thought.
 
Oh, just noticed this was on the discount codes and coupons. Might want to move to another forum and not here. Maybe General Hunting or Platform and Climbing. I did not notice that this was not on there. Sorry for the clutter of my response.

Pretty sure no one complained to illicit your off-topic rant. If something is "In Stock" and ready to be shipped, there is no way it should take 3 weeks to receive it. At least Tethrd lets you know up front that it will be a multiple week delay before receiving your product. That is all I, along with others, have stated. If they would have said 4 week delivery, I still would have ordered the Ridge Runner. If they are behind, let people know upfront. Maybe someone lost a platform, had one stolen, etc, and they need a platform quick. If that was the case and I saw "In Stock" I would assume within a week it would at the very least be shipped.

Don't come in here with that crap. They knew they had a big demand. They shouldn't ever be waiting on suppliers. If one company can't keep up, get two. It's that simple. It's metal for crying out loud. It's everywhere. I got mine in around the time frame they gave me. I'm happy with the service and with the product. With all that being said, if you aren't talking about your Ridge Runner keep your comments to yourself. I see too many posts derailed with this bs and it's not cool.

Ordered a Ridge Runner on the 4th and still get "processing" when I check my account status. Counting weekends its been 17 days since ordering. Seems like a 2 week ship date may be a little wishful thinking. Agree with the raw material statement above....no reason not to have enough materials on hand to complete orders. Not enough material used in any tree stand much less a platform to be of any trouble to get or have on hand.

It took 17 days to get it to my door from the day of ordering. I know how you're feeling man. Email them if you're concerned. I did twice lol. In the end, the wait was worth it. It's an awesome platform.

I know they'll come through, I'm being patient. Was really hoping to have it for a planned hunt the end of this week but that may not happen. In the end my own procrastination and indecision between it and the Predator kept me from ordering sooner. So if I dont get it by hunt day it's my own fault.

Ordered mine on Sept. 30th and it came today... hang in there yours should be coming...
 
I didn’t get a chance to put it on a tree today but I like the way it built... I also have a Tethrd predator platform and I really like it... it’s rock solid on the tree...
I was really tore between the RR and the Predator. Ultimately it came down to my size 13 boots and what worked the best for large feet. The clear winner was the RR with more real estate in the platform.

I wear a size 13 boot as well and have plenty of side to side room on the RR. The predator would've been my choice had it been wider. And so I could be on that "bandwagon" lol. Just kiddin. They both definitely have their place. Awesome products.

Emailed Out on a Limb today about my order. The response was as stated above....working on catching up on orders after a material/parts shortage. Hopefully I'll still see it this week.

I ordered in Oct. 2nd and just received my shipping notice today. That puts them at 3 weeks not counting weekends. I called and spoke with them before I ordered and this was about what they predicted. Been hunting off a DIY I made from an old steel tree stand seat, it works but its heavy and doesn't fold. I"m pumped to try out something a little lighter and more pack-able for run and gun during the rut.
