Pierre Deux Ardmore-Suburban Square Vendors Beware of Home Furnishings store that does not pay its invoices

On good faith. When contacted by Pierre Deux to do an Author Talk and Booksigning on Mother's Day weekend in I agreed to travel there at my own expense—a nearly five hour drive—for a Saturday morning event. I arrived early, set up books and signage and gave a one hour presentation followed by a signing.

Pierre Deux asked if they could purchase eight of my books directly from me for re-sale in their Ardmore Suburban Square store. I agreed to invoice them with net 30 terms. My books retail for $29.95 per book. I gave them a standard discount of 40% and invoiced them for eight books, dated June 1.

A couple months went by with no payment; a call from me was made. Payment was promised. A duplicate invoice was mailed. A couple more months went by with no payment; a call from me was made. Payment was promised. A duplicate invoice was mailed. Months went by and the process was repeated several times. Each time, the store manager assured me that payment would be made to me.

I am an author. I am not a corporation. I do not have staff. I have worked as a writer for fifteen years and as an author for six.in all of these years, I have only had one retail establishment purchase books from me and then re-sell them for a profit without paying me for the goods: Pierre Deux. This is stealing. Here we are: September. More calls were recently placed to the store and to the same store manager, who acknowledged me and the event and the non-payment. I assured her that if payment was not received, I would take my consumer complaint online to multiple consumer protection sites to make other small vendors aware of their non-payment history. I am fulfilling that promise. Their bill has still not been paid.
