I needed to change the shipping address to Arlington Ward, 23 Spring Street, Hamilton, Ontario, L8N 2P1. Since I could not, the package is now headed to the wrong person.

AI Highlights
  • - Order lost in shipping; customer requested cancellation and refund.
  • - Refund of USD 76.03 issued but processing slow; customer alleges dishonesty.
Updated by user Nov 07, 2019

Company finally issued a full refund for the merchandise that I never received.

Updated by user Nov 07, 2019

Wanted to provide an update to this experience. Since I last posted I had several more email correspondences claiming that the refund had processed and that I needed to check with my bank, some claiming that it was still processing.

I requested documentation of the refund showing date, amount, and the name of the bank to which they posted the refund. Two messages from them indicated that their finance department could not provide the documents. Then FINALLY, after almost six months, the refund was posted on November 5th!

I am happy that it has been resolved, but not at all happy with the process. I will not use this company again.

5/11/19- Ordered merchandise

5/17/19-Received notice on that order was shipping

6/7/19- Reach out to inquire on delivery status

6/11/19- Receive response that they are looking into it

6/17/19-Reach out again for status update

6/18/19 - Receive response that my order "has been lost on the far international shipping way", offered to resend order.

6/18/19- I reply that I do not want to reorder. Request to cancel the order and refund my payment.

6/19/19 - Receive the following response, "This is to inform you that the refund USD 76.03 in your order has been submitted successfully.

For the refund, it will take about 10 to 15 days for our financial department to deal with.

You will be informed once the refund is issued.

After we processed your refund, it usually needs 5 to 7 days to be success-ed, the arrival time is about one month, depending on the bank and card type.

7/6/19- Reach out for update on refund status

7/6/19 - REceived this reply, "Thanks for contacting us. Hope you are doing well.

Please accept my deepest sorry for inconvenience caused to you.

We did update your refund and we told our financial manager that your refund has been reported for a long time and should be finished in first priority.

To be honest, our refund system is really so slow but we can sure we never scam anyone and refund you finally.

I will keep eyes on your refund and inform you once it finished, we do hope it will be finished on time, would you forgive us about this and give us more days?

A thousand thanks for your kindly understanding and patience. :)" Please note that I never mentioned scam in my inquiry on 7/6/19.

8/23/19 - I sent the following: "It is now August 23, 2019, a full seven weeks since you claimed that my refund was processing. I cannot begin to tell you how angry, upset and disappointed I am.

I feel that your company has scammed and stolen my hard earned money. I will never, ever recommend that anyone buy anything from you."

8/24/19 - Received the following response: "We appreciate your cooperation and understanding and assure you that we are constantly evolving to better suit your needs.

We are very sorry for the inconvenience and delay,

I would like to inform you that your refund request is approved already by are financial management but it will have a couple of days to be process and transfer In your account so i hope that you will wait for this patiently or if you want you can contact your bank to update the status of your refund.

It takes 7-10 days processing time to transfer in your account.

Thank you for your cooperation with us and have a nice day"

8/26/19- I responded: " I don't believe you."

8/27/19 - REceived the following reply: "Thank you for contacting us.

I have checked with our financial department, your refund has been issued on 2019-07-10.

After we operate the refund, the refund will be successful after business days, and there will be approximately one month of arrival time, depending on the type of bank card. Please contact the bank for status.

If you have other concerns, feel free to ask."

10/25/19 - I reply: "Still waiting on this refund. "

10/26/19 - Recived the following: Thank you for your email, I hope this can helps you a lot.

As per checking in our system, your account has been successfully refunded.

Would you mind double checking your account or please do contact your bank for this matter?

I'm so sorry for the inconvenience that has caused you this.

But thank you so much for your wonderful cooperation in advance!

Will wait for your update."

10/27/19 My angry reply - "I have checked my account everyday since you promised to refund my money and NOTHING has been refunded!

You have consistently misled me and shamelessly taken advantage of my patience. No good will come of this. My mission now is to tell everyone how dishonest and dishonorable your company is. You have proven yourselves to be scam artists and thieves.

I WILL NEVER FORGET THIS EXPERIENCE AND WILL WARN EVERYONE I CAN."

I'm so frustrated!

This is intolerable that there is no recourse and no accountability. AND STILL NO REFUND!

AVOID THIS COMPANY LIKE THE PLAGUE!

They refused to give me my money back for 5 months now

AI Highlights
  • - Order canceled after two days; it didn't ship.
  • - Refunded $137 of $206; balance not received.
  • - Accounts say processing; reps copy-paste same message.

I placed an order late December and canceled 2days after when they didnt ship it yet. It was $206.

They refunded $137 a week after and since then I never received the balance. I dont know why they didnt give me full refund?

They kept apologizing saying their accounts department is processing the refund.

They copy paste the same message to me using different rep names. They are terrible scammers.

User's recommendation: No one should buy from them
