Weekly drops of something you have on hand are kind of scammy…. Why not just post everything “he” has now, and then add stuff as he gets it?

Camofire/Blackovis also had it all in their warehouse and it wasn't a scam...

It made a little more sense when it was on the black ovis website all the time, with a separate deals website for overstocks and closeouts. Now it’s just limited drops for no reason.

Fair enough. I'll give you that.

Fwiw, I think the "drop" business model kind of sucks but it plays into people's FOMO and it seems to be popular lately.

I still don't think it automatically seems "scammy."

Black ovis was making the gear and it was their brand. Spike camp is not making the gear. Spike camp bought the gear they could buy at the time trying to do you guys a favor who still wanted it before it disappeared into the ether. There’s nothing scammy about it. They put it in drops because it’s one man having to fulfill all of these orders and cannot possibly handle if every item sells out quickly. He would rather do things in a manageable way and deliver it to customers on time rather than you having to wait a month for your order.

Thanks for posting. Glad I saw this, I actually needed to get my boy a puffy jacket for this upcoming hunt year.

Scammy probably wasn’t the right wording, more silly/annoying.

Maybe he should be a sponsor in order to advertise here?

 

[TheTone]

So is the guy just going to be selling black ovis gear or was he able to buy third party company gear also?

 

[Dos XX]

It is Muley Freak. He bought the stuff.

 

[ecollier123]

Come on, @archer1416 - "trying to do you guys a favor"? The Rokslide crowd is not that gullible.....

Whoever "he" is - he did it to make money.

I hope the business succeeds, his endeavor is profitable, and the Rokslide forum users (and others) are able to get some of the gear they want.

Just wanted to post to say that like the OP, I also know the guy who bought this inventory, and he is a solid dude, good as they come. He is ambitious and wants to bring good hunting deals to hunters, and the leftover BlackOvis product was a good place for him to start.

Reminds me of someone I know who started in a basement, setting out to do the same thing a number of years ago...

Anyway, give him a shot if you see a deal he offers.

Just my 2 cents.
