OnSaleBazaar.com listed a 56" 32 drawer tool chest on craig's list in Oklahoma City. Foolishly, I inquired as to the tool chest. On 11/16/09, Taras Lichonczak sent me an email with a sales pitch and referred me to onSaleBazaar.com. I questioned about payment through a greendot card, but purchased the $500 tool chest anyway on 11/27. After waiting 12 days, I had not received a shipping order as per their shipping instructions stating shipment 7-14 days. 12/09, I could not get through by either phone numbers, nor e-mail, as neither were taking any more messages. Today, 12/10, onSalebazaar's web page was removed and trailered my search to Overstocked, whose customerservice rep researched and acknowledged on relationship with onSalebazaar. Using "Google" I found several notes from people who had both recognized the swcam and purchased and not received items.
Looking back, more research sould have been done on onSalebazaar and especially the red flags of paying by green dot credit card activation numbers. Just in time for Christmas, when honest people are trying to conserve and find the best deals. This was an intentional scam and Taras Lichonczak (586) 276-7889 should be prosucuted and jailed, yes just before Christmas!!!
Google research revealed a 2004 print of a Detriot policeman of sale name. It is unclear as to if this is the same Taras or not. Your should research more to be sure.
