I was using WorldWide Discount sales, for my business some items were to be dropshipped others sent to me to sell. Charlie the owner and I talked about every day.
He got behind on things over the holidays, but I could understand, I was in the same basic position myself. He did send out some items, some people got and the item fell to pieces others got the wrong item all together. Of couse I had many that never got a thing and neither did I. I paid him in bulk with my paypal card or bank card. He provided me with tracking numbers that didn't work for weeks and some never worked, some items were triple or double labled and never made it to where there were supposed to. I had a couple of people get double items and said they sent them back but Charlie said they never did make it back.
All in all I paid this man and they are not a big company, he owned this and had a couple of guys helping with shipping is all it was, his wife wouldn't even let him have an assistant, he'd told me at one point.
He kept telling me things would be in or go out and it never happend. The one day his voice mail was full, the next it was disconnected but I thought maybe he just was having problems. Then he didn't answer mails, or the phone.
A friend and I tried to process an order up to the point of the credit card number and if we had put in a good number it looked as though it would have gone through, yet part of the website was down.
This has caused me a huge huge mess and left me with a lot of money to pay back to buyers. I have not had time to do anything about this because of the mess this has left me in but its just time. I have to deal with the buyers this man screwed out of their money and take the blame for that and I have dealt with them every days since day one but they need to know too that I am doing what I can. I am out about 9-10,000 to this man between orders not filled and orders messed up or items broken.
I am just one person who had a decent business going and between this man and Paypal I sit home scared to death each day over what one of my past buyers may do because someone scammed me. I have been called scammer, theif ect and its all over this. What someone did to me, now its time he face the music and I took some of that stress off my own shoulders.
Charlie, I trusted you, we talked often, not only business but about other things too. You talked often of your vacation spots in Fla, I hope your not just sitting on the beach with all this money, while I take the heat for what you have done to all these people.
