I purchased a $1200 Plus freight ($200) pallet from Michael Back of Bargain Hunters LLC. I first heard of this pallet via Craigslist.com. After making initial contact and expressing my concerns of receiving broken merchandies, or worse, them taking my money and never hearing from them again, Lamar Mount, the warehouse guy, assured me that they receieve the pallets, inspect them for quality and ship them out. His exact words were "If it helps set your mind at ease, I am a military Veteran and a former police officer, that should tell you I am honest". Famous last words of a fool!
After I sent my money to Lamar, it became increasingly difficult to get ahold of him. I finally resorted to another warehouse worker. Jack. After a month of wondering where my pallet is (They told me it wold arrive in 7-10 days) Jack informed my that there was a pallet sitting there with no name on it and he would ship that one to me. I asked him what was on it and he told me exactly what was there. It arrived about a week later. I found that 95% was returned merchandise and of that, 90% was broken and unsellable.
I called Michael Back, the CEO of Bargain Hunters LLC. I explained my frustration of my merchandise and also that nobody would call me back. He gave me a very warm hearted apology and stated "I will send you a pallet at no charge and I promise you I will NEVER not call you back". Again... Famous last words of a fool!
I am working on 3 months now. Mr. Back and Mr. Fuquay have told me that my pallet has been shipped... Although they did not converse before lying to me. They both had different dates of shipment!
The bargain truckload website promises a 100-300% return on investment. After all said and done, I have lost $900. Thats right... I sold everyting for $500.
After nearly 50 messages by phone, they refuse to call me back. I contacted Bass Pro Shops and the were extremely concerned that they were selling there product. It seems that there are only two retailers of Bass Pro overstock in the country and Bargain Hunters LLC is not one of them.
RUN from this company. If you see there ads on Craigslist stating "Outdoor Merchandise Pallets", please know that it is fraudulant. They are running these ads all over the country.
Moral of the story... Michael Back and Michael Fuquay are Liars, Cheats and Crooks!
