Please Advise. One 9/18 I ordered wood blinds for new home from company that left advertisments in my mail. I gave a 50% deposit of $735.00 (unfortunately by check). The blinds were to be delivered and installed within 2 weeks according to order form & salesperson. After 3 weeks I started calling the company/salesperson. Turns out the salesperson is the owner/sole proprietor. After leaving many messages over the course of 2 more weeks, he informed me he would refund my deposit mailing it the next day. Well, three weeks later, no refund check and he will not return my calls. His business address is a PO box, not acceptable in Small Claims, however I have his home address. I have also mailed him 2 letters (one certified return request not picked up) requesting refund of my money. It has been eight weeks since giving him my check and he refuses to call me and does not answer at his home number. I have filed complaints with BBB, Gov. Office Consumer Affairs and all local Consumer groups I can think of. I need my money back to pay for blinds ordered from reputable company! What can I do to get my money back and keep this crook from taking other people's money. I contacted the advertised manufacturer of the blinds and the Pres. of that company told me they had not done business with him in a year as he owed them money. Please advise if you can!!
