I was looking for Uggs boots for my girlfriend for Christmas. The Bailey Button Triplet in black to be exact. Nordstroms was sold out and on back order so I went to the internet for my search.
When I type bailey button triplet in, Google I saw the link for, www.baileybuttontriplet1873.com. I thought that this was the actual Ugg site. The boots were on sale for $60 less than Nordstroms and they had them in stock. The home page for the website had a picture of a Ugg store and they used the UGG trademark logo and official registration. They even have a page to view all official Ugg retailers and of course there name was on there too.
Because the boots were so hard to find I quickly made the purchase so that I wouldn't lose out. After doing so I just wanted to see some more pictures of the boots and after some close examination I noticed that the soles of the boots were different from the pictures on the, Nordstrom's website. I then googled, Uggs and I got a different official site. Sure enough I was scammed.
There is no contact information for, www.baileybuttontriplet1873.com. There's a tab to email a question. But since I have already sent 5 emailed over the span of the last 4 days and have yet to receive a response I'm assuming that it's pointless. There's no contact phone number that works. The tracking system for the boots that I ordered show no updates for the past 4 days.
I actually went on Facebook and saw a thread from another would-be-scammed consumer. She was actually smarter than I was. She posted a comment and received an actual response from a Ugg respresentative letting her know that, www.baileybuttontriplet1873.com is a complete fake.
Do not buy from this website. They don't deserve the business and money earned from hard working consumers. The discount wasn't even an issue. It was just a bonus and relief that they had the boots I wanted in stock. I would pay over retail to just have the real deal and not get scammed.
