I bought a case of Yugo 7.62x39, when the company said if you buy a case it comes in the original crate I thought it would be in the sealed tin and everything. Well it was not, the ammo arrived and I herd rounds rolling around in the crate. I then opened the crate and the ammo was in new white boxes not the original boxes. I opened the boxes and there are mixed headstamps and years in each box. There is corrosion on about 1/4 the rounds. I had no idea, just trying to figure out if I got screwed.

ETA: Cost 275

Sent them an email, lets see what they say.

Here is a bad pic, lol. The round on the right is from my stash of yugo surplus.

Called them and they said that there manager would call back. Also sent an im to them on this site and an email, About 200 rounds in total were in horrible condition (corrosion everywhere) about 50 rds were actually shiny the rest looked liked they were stored improperly for some time. Several headstamps found ammo was from 70-90's (no big deal). Wouldnt be bad ammo for blasting at a reduced rate I would say but I have not test fired it yet. At $275 you can find much better of the same product

How about you deal with the vendor first next time before posting? There's nothing wrong with airing complaints AFTER you've tried to resolve the issue, but there's a lot of vendors who get their name pulled in the mud that try to do the honorable thing given the chance.
