In addition to last report. I correct that report-I ordered "lazys"-two for $29.95. It then shows handling and shipping charges for both to be $7.95. So far so good. However, when the transaction was complete, it showed shipping and handling charges of $31.80?? I thought at first they were charging me $7.95 for each "lazy", but that would total $15.90, not $31.80??
Get this, folks, it tells you that "free" socks are included. If you weren't paying attention, like me, it states underneath, "just pay additional shipping" They are charging $7.95 for the free socks (that are only worth $5 if that) So, you are paying $15.90 for socks, plus $7.95 for the "lazys' a total of $31.80 shipping charges. Now if they all arrive in one box there is no way it would cost $31.80. I want to see the mail receipt. I think it's a scam-they are stating it as shipping charges (an expense that can be deducted?) and I doubt it cost that much to ship. Therefore, if this is what is going on, money is being pocketed, unreported. Because it can also be taken as an expense, isn't that double non-taxable income.
As stated, you don't know this until it's too late. They do not have a "preview order" button, so you have to pay before you get your statement-then you go into shock!
I think the IRS should look into this site and all the other "As seen on TV" sites. Great scam!
