After my wife saw a commercial about direct buy and called to inquire, we were invited (practically stalked) to come to a presentation (or shall I say CON-atation). With us in the market for a new home, we figured any opportunity to save money during this time would be great. Well, after attending the presentation and feeling like we made the right decision we chose to go ahead and sign up with them. We took the option of putting money down and then making two other payments later. We were told that we only had 3 days to cancel, but wasn't given enough information to decide in three days if this would be a wise purchase or not. We were also told that we would receive our membership id numbers in the mail in a few days. Then about two weeks later we received id cards that still gave us no access to view any merchandise with the actual prices online. We called and was told that the person in charge of the website was in an open house. There was no one else available who could assist us. Out of all the Direct Buy Reps and locations, there was only one guy to assist us? We then looked up reports on infomercial scams.com and read that we were not the only ones scammed by these clever scam artists. Duhh why didn't we do that before. The three days was up. But we are taking measures to get our initial deposit back and stop any further payments from going to this SCAM. Did I say this was a SCAM?
