Comments: I have been waiting since Nov. of last year for a White Starlight Bear. I've paid for it since then. They will not let me know what's going on. They are trading for them & it's a slow process they say. I would like them to let me know something. Thanks.

Comments: I ordered 100 Lacoste shirts for a total of $1300.00 from this couple over three weeks ago. At first I was suspicious b/c they could not provide me any tracking numbers and had a very lame excuse as to why. They assured me the package was sent USPS Priority mail which is typically 2-3 days. As of today (6/22/05) I still have not recieved any shipment. They actualy said they did not want to do business with me again b/c of my not trusting the situation which is fine with me. They said they were going to return the difference of my money to me since they supposedly only sent 25 shirts form the original order. The refund was supposed to be a refund of $975. Once a week it seems they try to pacify me by telling everything is ok and that they were out of town therfore could not get back to me. I have said that it is getting to a point in which they are the ones thatare going to have to return my money, and there response is that they have to get the money back from the supplier. Which is a bunch of bull...since they are the agent representing the out of the country dealer they are responsible. So give me my money and then they can be reimbursed by the dealer. Anyway, three weeks later I still have not recieved any shirts or refund. As of today I am filing a police report with the Albany PD and with the FBI Internet Crimes Division. Any suggestions are welcomed.

Comments: Seller listed an evening gown with incorrect size. When I attempted to return the gown the seller refused a refund even though it was the sellers error. Went through paypal resolution and it took almost 2 months but it was decided in my favor. When paypal tried to refund me from sellers paypal account there was not enough money. Seller does not answer my emails. Although I went through the proper channels to get a refund I am still out monies. BEWARE of this ebay seller BRIELLE1000!!!!!

Please contact me, as I would be able to help you in any way!

Comments: This seller is no longer registered on eBay; I suspect the name is not his real name. He has been selling items purchased with stolen credit cards (read ebay feedback). He accepts payment only in electronic gold (eGold), which is virtually impossible to trace. He did not reply to emails for days. He listed auctions with items in different locations across the country. He sent me an item from "Target.com" and it arrived from a FEMALE in California (he is supposed to be in Washington State). Beware of any seller requiring eGold; he may have created a new identity on eBay; and they won't help you if you get swindled by him.

Comments: I ordered from Cindysbeans on April 21st Sea Center exclusive Opie. I ordered BEFORE they went on sale April 23rd at Sea Center and LONG before Retail version was announced.

Sadly I received retail version..even though it is IMPOSSIBLE I ordered retail version as retail version did not exist when I ordered.

Just sharing what happened so others are aware.

Thanks~Pam

Yesterday, I received a "Complaint Activity Report" from the Tucson BBB. They received an email from Mark regarding my situation on 6/6/05 saying "Refund Already Given." This of course, is not true. As the original Credit Card has long been closed, the only way he could refund me is by check. No check has been received.

I am so disappointed, I gave them another chance to make good and all I got in return were more lies.

Thanks,
Terresa Clark

Comments: I ordered 5 books on woodburning over one year ago and I never received them. I was promised a refund and never received one.

I was told the items were shipped a second time. Still I never received them.

I would have thought they would have insured the second shipment, but it never arrived, I was never refunded and they refused to answer the email requests.

They also refused to answer their telephone.
