Well boys it looks like the saga of the BakFlip Cover ends here...BAK Industries f**ked up yet again. Wait until you hear this.
So last week when I was told the cover shipped on Tues for a Wed delivery, then told on Wed it shipped for a Thurs delivery and neither happened, when I called them the guy said they gave FedEx the cover but FedEx says they lost it and can not find it and that he would get another one sent out to me ASAP. the guy said for all my troubles and issue that he would send me a BAK Box 2 for free! I didn’t even know what it was and thought “who cares I want my $1000 cover.
So fast forward past the incident last Friday and now today I get a notice of delivery. I open my front door to find this:
They sent me TWO FULL BRAND BEW MX4 COVERS! Cover, Rails and installation hardware!!! What the helllllll!!!!
Look at the one box, yet again, the box is best to hell, both ends WIDE OPEN and unsealed.
So I “open” (lol) the one that is already opened and chose to install that one. Install went “ok” and the holes on the cover did not line up with the slots on the rails, although this time around it was a lot better then the first kit and I was able to maneuver the cover to make them line up enough to get the bolts through. I got the cover installed and this time the rail locks at the tailgate actually fit between both rails and it closed.
So, now I have a brand new in the box unopened BakFlip MX4 cover the for 02-18 Ram with the 6.4ft bed. I am going to be listing it in the for sale section in a moment. I am also selling the matching BAK Box 2, which is also brand new in the box never opened.
Between selling the extra cover and the BAK box, I will actually MAKE money in the end of this. I should make $200 or so bucks, plus the cover on my truck plus the old one that didn’t fit, I could sell for a few hundred to someone who wants to modify the rails to make it work on their truck. If I sell the first cover sent to me, I’d probably sell it for around $450 so if I do sell that one then I should make around $650 on top of the money back for the cover.
I will say this entire ordeal has been a nightmare but the end of the story has been written and that is me getting a free cover + making money, so I can’t complain anymore as I have made our better then 99.99% of other people who have been in this situation.
What a crazy ending.
