As I am a big boy over 6’ so I was looking for the high end power in the market so it was by the time Horton Legend 225HD and I got an eBay deal on used like new Horton Legend full package for about $500. I have to say it was good and accurate and made in the US, I did use it almost every weekend just for Target practice until the string broke while I am shooting it and it caused damage to the Limbs. I called Horton Archery Customer services, described the damage and they said you need to replace the limbs and as I am not the original owner so the warranty is void , I said okay please replace it on my charge and include installing new string. they mentioned that the new limbs will be covered by them for 3 years … All of that sound great , they gave me a return Authorization number and they requested to disassemble the bow and send it over and they took my credit card information in advance and they said it will take 2 -3 week upon receiving my xbow and the cost is $126 for new 2 limbs , string and shipping back to me, Finally I received my xbow and all the sudden I found that my old damaged limbs has been re-installed with new sting and the invoice is showing that they have charged me for new 2 limbs $100 + $18 new string +$8 shipping. I have checked my credit card online and I found that they have charged me! I was so mad I called them back and the customer service lady in cold blood just said sir I have the system right in front of me showing that we have installed new limbs for you. I replied Mam I have the damaged bow in my hand with the old limbs. She said you have a warranty I can give you a new return authorization number and we will check it out and that’s where I went nuts!!! She never admitted that a mistake might happen and it was an ugly conversation ended by me saying. Mam you just lost a customer. So I have send my crossbow bow back to Horton on the same day on my own cost hopefully they give me what I paid for!! I have followed by sending complain online through their Horton web site but never heard anything back from them till today! I can send my Return Aythorization numbers to anybody wants to check on my story!
