Maine
Needed to buy some wiggets in bulk so I went on amazon and searched for one of the best brands. About 4 down in the list was another brand at a silly low price. They were packaging 15 for what you would pay for 3. Seemed fishy but they did have thousands of positive reviews and a store front. The order page said they only had about a dozen left so I went ahead and ordered one. Latter that night I was telling a friend about the price and he asked me to order him a few. The next day I ordered him 4 packs of 15. A week latter they showed up, but only 5 were delivered. So I do a search for missing items and it sets me up on a chat. The girl checked the order and agreed to send a replacement. 7 days later a package shows up with only 5 {not the 75 I had Paid for} So I'm back on chat again and they are steering to a refund but I need the wiggets. So they set up another replacement order. 10 days latter I received only 3, and again they push for a refund but I demand a full replacement. 12 days latter same thing. This time on the chat I was told they could only send one order of 15 and they would give me a gift card for the remainder. I kept typing in supervisor until a cs rep said they had the authority to send me the replacement. I told him I had paid for 75 wiggets and only received 13. So, I do a little more checking and it turns out that amazon owns the store front while they hold merchandise for other sellers.
Does tis sound like Bait and Switch? .....(fixed B and S)
