Stuff showing up broken on delivery! (Romeo 1)
X-Carry in possession. Put 200 rnds through it on Friday. Ordered a romeo 1 off Amazon cause well I have Prime. Why not?! It's super fast.

Well I'll tell you why F-ing not cause it showed up with a crack in the glass.

A) how robust is this $300 optic that got tossed around in the mail some and broke?!

B) Someone punch the fucker that tossed it around right in the taint for me.

Maybe they sent it broken. Who knows. They will make it right.

Good luck trying to find someone who speaks American English to help you. I went round and round on the last problem I had with Amazon. Prime is great when it works.

Yeah, it's frail, but Romeo 1 is such a badass name.

Yeah but according to a thread in the pistol section the Romeo MRDS is just as durable and proven as a Trijicon RMR.

Was it sold and shipped by Amazon? I had an issue with an RMR I bought on Amazon. The sight worked fine but looked used. The battery was opened and dead and the screws had been installed on something. It wasn’t sold by Amazon only shipped. I did speak to Amazon CS that was likely in India but they were great. They credited back the payment before I even sent back the used RMR so I could order another one right away as there was only one left. The new one was perfect and has been.

Amazon already issued a return label to credit my account. Was sold by a vendor "Splash Outdoors" that has %100 and 97 ratings. So I'm sure everything will work out. Box was sealed and so was the optic. So no one would have known. Could have gotten busted anywhere along the way. Just annoyed when things show up broken.

I would be worried about the durability of said optic if being tossed around in a box breaks it

Probably made in China. Stacked deep. Shipped to Sig. Who then shipped to distributor. Who then shipped to me. Who knows what was smashed on top of it when. But yea.. I thought the same.
