Saga.To anyone that placed an order with us from the beginning of summer 2018 through the winter season, check your email. We have sent you a message that should explain everything.
evaroniShould have hired a qualified PR firm to compose that.
bread_birdNever got one :(
OregonDeadHow about the stuff you paid for? I’ve had companies send me what I paid for fast with zero communication and I was satisfied. Seems like an email probably doesn’t matter too much.

Saga.We have been contacting customers individually to deal with order fulfillment issues. We are only able to to take care of a certain amount each day and are only able to provide them with updates when they are given to us from the management that is in contact with the fulfillment centers.
We are fully aware of the frustration our customers are feeling as we are feeling them as well. There is no possible scenario where if we were physically able to fulfill orders or provide customers with updates that we wouldn’t do so. We are only able to provide people with the information we have been given.
Unfortunately people primarily post about the problems they have with a company. Which we have no problem with. But once the problem is resolved those customers don’t typically come back to their comments and respond to tell about how the issue has been resolved.
We’re not trying to pass off blame or make excuses. This is just to give some context as to why you may not have received a response to your issue yet. I can guarantee you I personally discuss all issues that are brought up to the social accounts with the customer service team every day and they respond to them when possible.
Additionally a NS member has been contacting current and past employees of Saga for further information as they are planning to write an investigative article about the situation.
I believe all questions should be answered in the near future.
Dhiler17Again I am updating the status per the request of Saga. As you may have guessed, I still haven’t had anything fixed. Here’s a link to the better business bureau website listing for their company. I suggest you file a complaint if you’re still having issues as well.

IanAvery-Leafthe response from saga is comical.... "We are working to resolve this issue with the customer and do not understand why they contacted the BBB when they had yet to verify that they wanted a refund. The product they ordered was and has been listed as a pre-order product. "
a pre-order for that winter, which was ordered November 5th...its now almost July. Super wack
BiffbarfI wonder how their athletes feel about all this. I'm nowhere near a sponsored skier, but I couldn't imagine repping a brand that's been so shady, even if there's good $$$ involved.
Dhiler17Final update for me. Saga still hasn’t gotten back again. I pulled out and got the bank involved. RIP saga.
bread_birdOver/under on the out of business announcement? I'd say late October
OregonDeadI ordered a hoodie from a different small company that advertises on here just a few days back and I am currently wearing my new sweatshirt. It is Nicer quality than my SAGA too.
WreckedtopsheetWhat company was it?
Dhiler17Bank got involved and got me my money back last week. BUT I got a shipment notification today?!?
Dangussaga hasn't been cool since 2010.

DeebieSkeebiesI wouldn't worry about it too much at this point if you got your full payment for order back, This happened to me earlier in the year with Backcountry. OnTrac's facility in Salt Lake royally fucked up and either "lost or misplaced" numerous shipments including mine, got my money back, but also got updated shipping info as well. It just all got sent back to the sender i.e Backcountry or Saga in this scenario
OregonDeadMuted. They included a nice handwritten note and some stickers too. A very good experience.
