JD Closeouts - Joe Veyhan
JD Closeouts will liquidate your bank account by overcharging you for merchandise. They claim "That's the chance you take in the closeouts business"

I called JD Closeouts to purchase food pallets for my store here in NY. I was told these pallets were overstock brand name items & all within date. The pallets were to be about 6ft-7ft tall. I was told they were so tall I'd need them loaded onto a loading dock.

I bought 5 pallets @ $695 each, with shipping charges of $850, total $4295 When I received the pallets they were no more that 3 feet tall, the height woudn't have bothered me so much if the food was what it was supposed to be.

It was nothing more than Dollar Store food!!! Mostly Ramen noodles there was not one item on any of the 5 pallets that I was able to charge more than $1.00. Most of the stuff sells for 50 cents or less.

When I took inventory & added it all up it came to $1500 full retail value! I called them to complain and they were out to lunch, in a meeting, away from their desk. When I finally was able to get someone on the phone they told me to prove it. I have pics and written affidavits from the freightliner driver and the man from the warehouse I had to rent to have these pallets delivered.

I'm in a tough spot now, I tried to contact consumer affairs, and they told me to get a lawyer. I can't get a lawyer to recover this $2795.00 I'm after. JD Closeouts is a large company and I'm small time. If I took them to court, I'm sure they'd have a great lawyer, and "IF" I won, all the $ would go to a lawyer or just pay off the plane fair and travelling expenses just to go to court.

The owner Joe Veyhan said, "This is the chance you take in the closeout business". Well, I've been doing this for 2 years, I also have friends in the closeout store business. And NOBODY has ever heard that expression. I understand sometimes you lose a bit on a pallet here and there. But 5 pallets in one shot from one company???

By the way, they offered me $250 off my next order for my troubles. LOL

I think the best thing to do now is just to get the word out to others, and hopefully they won't make the same mistake I did trusting JD Closeouts, they are not an honest company.
