Hi All-
I ordered the Scor-Mat last Sunday on the website and it was delivered today, Thursday! Wow! That is some might fast shipping AND I got if for 20% during the month of March. Such a great deal that I wanted to share!

I love Ritz too! They always ship really fast and I've never had a problem with them! I ordered from them on tuesday and also ordered the ScorMat and expect it to be here in a couple of days! Great Service!!!!!!

Someone said they were going out of business a while back. I hesitated ordering from them. They always have such good deals. I might have to pay them a visit since they're still around.

I saw the same thing yesterday on MSN, but I don't know if it was a rumor (you know, one of those headlines designed to draw you in) or a fact. Might want to do some checking ....

Very Very Very sad but they won't ship to overseas US military bases. Just un-American, ain't it. Okay so that is me having a pitty party.

I ordered from them earlier this week and my package is scheduled for delivery today. (I really like the delivery via Fed Ex. That way I can track my packages progress.)

I have always gotten great service from them and only had one backordered item that was out of stock.

Another satisfied customer here. I, too, love the Fed Ex delivery. Only ordered from them once, but plan to again, if they stay around.

It was on AOL yesterday that they were going out of business.

I've noticed that Wolf Camera has the same 20% off deals and the same stock...does that mean they're going out of business too?

Wolf Camera- is a part of the Ritz Camera family- as is Inkley's- i use to work for them as a photographer for years...

"Ritz Camera Files Bankruptcy
The nations largest retail photography chain has today filed Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection.

Ritz has about 800 photo stores in 40 states, operating as Ritz Camera, Wolf Camera, Kits Cameras, Inkley�s and The Camera Shops. It also operates 130 Boater�s World stores. The company, which has about 6,400 employees nationwide.

In its initial filings, the company is seeking interim court approval of a credit facility of up to $85 million with existing lenders. According to Weinsweig�s affidavit, the company would be unable to meet payroll and other expenses without the interim financing approval and would be forced to shut down.

If Ritz Camera is unable to secure the needed credit from the bankruptcy court then Ritz Camera will likely go out of business very quickly."

Doesn't sound good. i found lots of articles saying they were going under. And their division of boaters world is gone for sure. I just typed in Ritz Camera going out of business...

[grandmamichelf]

Oh man, that's sad! I ordered some glossy cardstock from them and their shipping cost was only $6.95 (which I thought was a deal). I was going to go back and order some nesties just because they are on sale over there. Shoot!

[creatingisfun]

oh how sad

[stamp luvr]

That is terrible news. I just placed a large order with them. I hope I get it.

Another satisfied customer here! Are they still taking orders?

My last order was confirmed on Mar 17. i haven't received shipping info and can't remember if I did on previous orders.

[sprtchick]

Blessings.
