      I purchased IAFF window stickers for my vehicle and have not received them. They were ordered 6-15-2024 and the funds were deducted from my credit card on 6-16-2024. I have not received any correspondence since. I tried calling and email. I have been ghosted since they received payment.

      July 13, 2023 I placed an order (#*****) totaling $150.62 with Empire Tactical on their website, ************************************** (1) Knight's Cross Tactical - Athame Knife, (******** Made) (SQ7346739, $69.90);(1) Large Tactical 5"x3" (FLIR) Thermal Reflective ******** Flag Multicam Patch (SQ0412827, $32.99);(1) Long Dong Morale Patch 3"x2" (SQ3703871, $9.99);(1) Large 5"x3" Multicam Colors ******** Flag - Embroidered Patch (SQ2310374, $11.99);(1) Large 5'x3" Infrared Reflective **** Flag Patch - Coyote (******** Made) (SQ0698981, $23.99)Subtotal $148.86 Shipping $ **** Discount -$ ***** Sales Tax $ ***** Total $150.62 The knife description had a note attached, "ALLOW - 12 days to ship!!!!" (The knife would be sent to ***************, a professional knife sharpener in *******, "to get a RAZOR sharp edge on them. This is a pre-order." I placed my order and received an order (#*****) confirmation that same day, July 13.I waited patiently well past 12 days, occasionally checking my order status from my account on the website. 22 days later, August 4, I finally received an email stating that my order had shipped and a **** tracking number (**********************) was provided. Because I live in *************, ** and this order was being shipped from *******, I knew it would only be a day or 2 to receive the package. I checked at the local *********** every day of the following week and kept trying to get information from the tracking, which kept stating no tracking information available. Eventually, the tracking went to a "Latest Update" screen stating:"A shipping label has been prepared for your item at 1:34 am on August 5, 2023 in *******, ** *****. **** does not have the package yet; contact the shipper or shipping partner with any inquiries." I have contacted the business through email, phone voice mail and text multiple times with no reply and still have not received any product.

      Order number ***** was placed on May 31, 2022 for the amount of $21.12 for an Mil-spec Infrared Coyote ***** IR ******** Flag Patch with looped back. I received a cheaper item than what was ordered, and the flag canton was reversed. Contacted Empire Tactical *** numerous times via phone and email and did not receive a response until 6/21/2022. I asked the seller to contact me via phone or email to discuss the issue, but never received contact other than a replacement was being sent via an email with tracking number. I then received a black Mil-Spec Infrared IR ******** flag patch with looped back, vs the Coyote ***** ordered. I made several attempts to contact the seller via phone and voicemail, and email, requesting instructions on returning the incorrect items for a full refund as I had ordered the item from another company. I requested a credit back to my **** debit/credit card. I have not received a credit, nor any further communication from Empire Tactical ***. Warning to others considering doing business with this company...Caveat Emptor! Let the buyer beware! I would strongly recommend against doing business with this company!
