We have tried several times to contact her by mail, phone and email and no response.We had bought a 1996 Libearty Beanie bear from her we had chatted about on an instant messanger system she sent pictures of him but I was not sure if he was real or not, so we had asked her if we were not happy with him that we had 30 days to return him, Mrs Gatton agreed to that I also have that statement saved in an email also. We received the Libearty Bear and we sent it out the next day to Peggy Gallagher to be authenicated on June 26,2002 Mrs Gallagher sent us an email stating that Libearty was not authenic, I there fore got in touch with Mrs Gatton by email and i sent her a copy of Peggy Gallaghers email showing that Libearty was not authenic, Mrs Gatton replied back to me and told me to send Libearty back to her and she would refund our $110.00 back. That is what I did I sent the Libearty bear back to her on July 5,2202, to this day I have never heard anything back from Mrs Gatton. I do have the confirmation # of the priority package that i sent back to her # is 0300 6000 0001 7403 8594 this was mailed out July 5th 2002 I have tried several times to contact her by email and such but I get know respose.  I have all emails concerning this transaction saved which there a quite a few of them. We do not know what else to do, this was done as a Pay Pal transaction we notifid them also and said that there was not much they could do for us. Please help us get our money back. If there is any other way to get our money back please do let us know I was refered to you by another victim of internet fraud. Hope to hear from you soon     Sonny Thompson and Doug Grant  Below is email I got saying she would refund:

Sonny,

Just send the bear back and as soon as we receive him, we will send your money back. I have been in contact with the person that gave us the bear and he was shocked that it was a fake. So if possible, please include a copy of any information that you get from Peggy Galleger so I can show him. Sorry this has turned into such a mess. But I hope that you understand that I knew nothing about him being fake. Diane
