Complaint Review: 247 Shopmart

After being told from their website I could purchase 120 Tapentadol pills delivered overnight for $300. I sent $300 Western Union that went to a Steven Douglas in INDIA, but she assured me don't worry the pills are shipped from within USA. (Yes I was immediately 90% suspicious I had just been ripped off).

Sure enough, the next day no pills but instead a phone call from a "Steven Douglas" (with an obvious middle eastern accent) on the only phone number, they allways use, to say my order was being held in warehouse. He said the order was approved for 240 pills and I'd half to pay the balance of $700+? (I forgot exactly) before he could ship it. Some arguing ensued but I knew I had been had.

When I texted and called the "order takers" their whole attitude had changed saying they fired the agent who had made that deal yesterday and blah blah blah. There's no manager to talk to, he's in Australia. There's no refund in spite of a relatively liberal policy showing on the web site.

I didnt go into this transaction completely blind. I figured at worst it would be a $300 learning experience. And it was. Hell, college tuition for such learning is probably 10 times what I just paid. Lesson Learned.
