On April 9, 2005 I ordered a bicycle from justbicycles.com. I received an order confermation on the 11th and began waiting for my delivery. The order confermation stated that I would receive a tracking number when the bicycle shipped.

On April 13th and 15th I sent e-mails requesting the tracking number for my order and received no response. Between the 15th and 22nd of April I left several voice messages (this company does not answer phones) requesting a return call.

Finally, on April 22, 2005 I sent an e-mail telling this company that I was contacting my bank and disputing the charge because there had been no contact, which I did. My bank said they would reverse the charge and look into the issue.

On 4/26/05, after the dispute and my e-mail telling the company that I was canceling my order, I got a tracking number, which was not valid. I e-mailed and told them not to send the item and that I would not accept delivery because I bought a bicycle at a local vendor.

This company's response is pasted below:

I told you that the tracking number was being obtained from the manufacture and I would provide it. The correct number was given to us today. It is 122338830010526. As you can see it was shipped previously and will deliver to you on the 30th. As to your threats of posting things please do and see what happens. The policy on returns is there is a 30% fee. There is no exception for you. You can 1) accept the bike and pay for it, 2) refuse the bike and be charged a 30% fee per the website, or 3) neither and have us enter a charge off on your credit file. There is no exception because you threatened us or any exception because you feel you need stroked.

Finally, there is no reason to email further. You know what the options are and what the consequences are.

Conduct Yourself Accordingly,

Subject: RE: Tracking Number for Bicycle Order
As you can see from the print screen below, the item has not yet shipped. I have canceled the order prior to shipping. My bank has assured me that I will not be responsible for any fees because the charge was disputed prior to shipping. Your 30% fee is listed under the "return" section of your sales agreement. I am not returning anything. I am simply canceling the order because you company has conducted this transaction very unprofessionally. A simple reply to my e-mails requesting information, or a return telephone call, would have allowed us to avoid this situation.

Your threat of affecting my credit has truly made me feel that doing business with your company would be a terrible mistake. I will be sure to post copies of your e-mails on as many message boards as possible.

Your choice but it goes on your credit as a uncollectable debt. Doesn't matter to us one way or the other. If the bike is refused we will charge your card the 30% cancellation fee per the website contract you entered into. If your card does not sustain the charge it goes on your credit as a charge off.

It is surprising that you will now respond to my e-mail. I will not accept the delivery, nor will I pay any cancellation fee. I feel that I did more than enough to make contact with your company.

We will get clarification from the manufacture on the tracking number but the order has already shipped directly from them to you. There is a 30% cancellation fee if you want to cancel your order.

Please do not ship this order. I have contacted my bank and requested that they reverse the charge because of your failure to respond to my requests for information (see e-mail attached).
I have entered your tracking number into the Fed-Ex system and there is not shipping information as of today

I'm sure you can see what doing business with this company is like. Fair warning to all who read!

Response to the shouting Christy. I most certainly am not paranoid.

Well "Christy",

I can tell you that I most certainly am not paranoid. And by the posts here regarding treatment of customers, I can also guaratee without a doubt that I would never do business with justbicycles.

By the way, for the second straight year, Gilbert Arizona is the fastest growing community in the United States. So rest assured we have a lot more to do than just sit on the computer all day.

Fri, July 08, 2005

YOU ARE SUCH A PARANOID. I STOPPED IN GILBERT ARIZONA (FOR GAS) SO I UNDERSTAND YOU DON'T HAVE ANYTHING TO DO BUT READ AND WRITE ALL-DAY ON THIS SITE. UNDERSTANDABLE.

BUT DON'T PUSH OFF ON ME YOUR PARANOIA. UNDER YOUR THEORY IF I'M NOT BASHING WHO YOU WANT ME TO BASH THEN I MUST BE A SHILL.

SOMEBODY CAN'T SAY SOMETHING NICE WITH OUT YOU OR PAUL CLAIMING THEY ARE FRAUDS. THIS ISN'T THE FIRST TIME. YOUR ANTICS ARE ON OTHER RIPOFF REPORTS ALSO.

I ONLY RESPONDED TO THIS ADD BECAUSE "DOUG" OF MY TOWN STARTING BAGGING ON INTERNET COMPANIES. HOW STUPID IS THAT SINCE ALMOST EVERY COMPANY NOW DAYS SELLS ON THE WEBSITE INCLUDING TARGET AND WALMART.

BELIEVE ME THIS SITE HAS GOTTEN CREEPY WITH ALL YOU "RIP OFF GROUPIES." YOU WON'T FIND ME BACK ON HERE AND I'LL BE SURE TO TELL EVERY TO STAY WITH THE BETTER BUSINESS BUREAU WHERE NUTS DON'T JUMP ALL OVER YOU FOR VOICING AN OPINION.

My point is... Too many positive responses in such a short period of time, as if they were all typed by the same person ..

#40Consumer Comment

Thu, July 07, 2005

...that all of these posts by Jack, Gayle (both locations) and yourself all seem d**n suspicious, as if they were all typed by the same person (Jack Clayton). I'm not the only one here who can see that.

Same goes for everyone that praises this company. Too many positive responses in such a short period of time on a consumer complaint website. That is atypical for these reports. Usually, when someone posts a positive response for a particular company, it was not because they came across this site by accident. Most are made by avid readers, or are posted by company shills.

Now, I'm not saying that all positive posts are that way. Hey, I've even posted some positives myself (just look at the Blockbuster reports). But I have been an avid reader of these reports for a year now. None of these people posting have ever posted before (that I can tell). To me, that is just too suspicious.

I think I'm pretty good at spotting a shill, and you Christy are one of them (if you are not Jack himself). I'm sorry, but these positive posts are pegging my Bullshit Meter.

For Christy in Houston. "conspiracy theory"

Christy (if that is your real name),

I have searched all the new reports, and cannot find one from "Christy - Houston, TX". Please, give us the name you used so that we can see whether or not your "conspiracy theory" pans out.

By the way, if you Google "justbicycles", these reports now show up in results 3 and 4, DIRECTLY under the link for this company.

Thu, July 07, 2005

Dear Christy, oops I mean Gayle, or is it Jack (d**n hard to keep all of your aliases straight),

If you have any doubts about who I am, then please feel free to contact the EDitor of this website. I'm sure he'll be more than happy to confirm that we have had phone conversations in the past, long before the justbicycles reports were posted.

Or, feel free to view my original rip off report, and my reason for being on this website:

http://www.ripoffreport.com/reports/ripoff103042.htm

I can also verify that Paul from Anaheim has been around on this site for quite a long time, again long before this report started.

#40Consumer Comment

Thu, July 07, 2005

As to these posting's who is PAUL? TROY, PATRICK?X-EMPLOYEE? SOMEONE JEALOUS? MAN OR WOMAN? WHO IS EDIE? IS SHE REALLY A NEIGHBOR OR A LIAR? Let's face it this is the Internet and anyone can be anyone. IF YOU BELIEVE WHAT YOU READ ON THE INTERNET YOU REALLY NEED HELP AND THAT INCLUDES THE STUFF ON THIS SITE!

We don't even know that Gayle or Jack are with the company (at all) or just people playing with the losers that sit around writing rip off reports all day. (Which by the way Paul of Anaheim you seem to be on at least 40 rip off reports I have read.

Do you work for the ripoff report and are trying to stir up business or just to much time on your hands)? For that matter who cares. To prove my point I wrote a complaint about a fake company tonight.

By tommorrow at least six other people will swear up and down they got ripped off by the same company.

If you plan to be in the bicycle business, or any business, you first need to resolve your anger issues

#40Consumer Suggestion

Thu, July 07, 2005

Otherwise, you will fail at everything you try to do. Simple as that.

Here's how I can make that statement. First, look at how you went off on Forrest. What could he possibly have done to deserve that? I'm sure all the man wanted was his bicycle in a timely manner.

Instead, he claims you never got in touch with him about his order. So, he got worried and cancelled the payment. At that point, you went off on the guy.

Then, you come here, seething with rage. I'll show this a*****e, I'll put his name and phone number on here for the whole world to see.

And, that's exactly what you did.

Dude, it looks like you're a time bomb. You got this bottled up rage going on in your life.

Here's a suggestion. You're making money now. So, go back to the person who abused you when you were a child. Spend an hour and take all your rage and anger out on the person who abused you as a child. Maybe it's the mother who belittled you. Or, the father who beat you until you were black and blue. Or, it could have been the a*****e in school that always picked on you.

At least, that would make sense. Because going off on the Forrests of the world makes no sense.

Do the person that did you. Don't walk around with hate for society in general. Take it right back to the source.

If you can't get this out of your system, you will fail at everything you ever try to do. People will always be talking behind your back. What an a*****e. If you try to make a business, it will fail because every time you come in contact with the customers, you unload all your anger on them.

Same with social relationships. Women won't understand why the slightest little thing always sets you off. They'll simply get scared and move on.

Until you can resolve your anger towards the world, you got nothing.

You think I'm wrong? Look up above here. Even your neighbor is against you. He came here and posted a rebuttal.

Who likes you? Who's your friend? Nobody, because you probably drove them all away.

Maybe your bicycle thing will all work itself out, maybe not. But, right now, the best thing you can possibly do for yourself and your business is learn how to fit into the human race.

That's gonna take quite a few changes on your part.

All I can say is wow... bizarre behavior, harassment and making threats?

#40Consumer Comment

Wed, July 06, 2005

This report is panning out to be one of the best I've read yet. So when a customer isn't happy, they're accused of bizarre behavior, harassment and making threats? Truly incredible.

It's almost hard to believe that a supposed adult (At least in age) would act like this. There is no doubt in my mind what's going on here. This guy is obviously has issues beyond his bad conduct.

OK, so I am very analytical in nature, and love trying to solve mysteries. Now that I got caught up in the whole "Where's my bike?" saga, I decided to do a little search.

In the search field of this website, I typed in simply "Colton". I thought that might give me the best results. Here's what I found:

There are 5 reports on here about this company; this one, and these four:

I would like to call your attention to report #118906. Here is the first rebuttal to that report:

"Rebuttal UPDATE EX-employee responds
Submitted: 3/1/2005 12:08:50 PM Modified: 3/1/2005 4:35:12 PM


Unreasonable Consumer


I use to work for the company and remember this guy only because of the bizare behavior. We would, in the peak season,ship almost 50 bicycles a day. Sometimes it would take longer than we desired or something would be back ordered but we had a really good crew that busted our efforts to do the best we could. (Had I not started my own business I would still be there because it was a great place to work).

This "customer" felt like his order should have priority and shipped before other people that had ordered ahead of him. When he didn't get the "special attention" he was demanding he started calling employees family at their homes and harrasing them to try to force us to ship his order first.

We cancelled his order but he kept calling our family members. He wouldn't give his credit card so it could be credited (the shopping cart truncated the number when emailed to us for security purposes) so he was told to dispute the transaction with his bank (for the refund) and to stop calling and harassing our family members.

It got so bad that he was told if he called again charges would be filed against him for telephone harrassment. (Because he kept calling after his order was cancelled making threats). All the employees were scared of this guy because of his bizarre behavior.

Jack - Mesquite, Texas
U.S.A."

A couple of things about this rebuttal. First, it says submitted by an "ex-employee" named Jack. Jack is the owner of this company. Second, notice the striking similarities of this rebuttal to the rebuttal on this report from "Gayle - Garland, TX".

Coincidence? I don't think so. I think that "Jack - Mesquite, TX", "Gayle - Garland, TX" and "Gayle - L.A., CA" are all the same person, and that is Jack Clayton, owner.

Also, I think all of the positive responses about justbicycles are actually shill posts by Jack himself.

Who cares what this guy does. What I know is that I needed a 7 speed bike. I looked all over the web and emailed 5 different web companies. This guy beat all their prices and I got my bike in three days.

An attorney? Naaaah! Look at what he comes here and says and how he acts toward customers. No attorney's that stupid.

#40Consumer Suggestion

Wed, July 06, 2005

You know, I got no problem with an attorney running a side business. And, I really don't mind if he's doing it out of his home.

Homes are expensive. So, get all the use you can out of them.

I don't even mind if the guy's getting a good buck from the business. Who works for free? Not me, that's for sure!

But, I do mind the way he treated the person who posted here.

You can 1) accept the bike and pay for it, 2) refuse the bike and be charged a 30% fee per the website, or 3) neither and have us enter a charge off on your credit file. There is no exception because you threatened us or any exception because you feel you need stroked.

That's what he told his customer. It's a good thing he hides behind a website. You tell somebody that same thing in person, they'll knock your d**n teeth out.

It's just not the way normal people do business.

Then, to come here and post the customer's name and phone number. How does that look? Who wants to be the next customer? Hell, they'd be too scared of their name and number ending up on a web site.

Then, the long list of fake, pretend customers. What's up with the pink bikes?

Doesn't he sell any other colors?

Trust me, no attorney is this stupid. Law school is hard. So, is the bar exam. An idiot like this couldn't pass either of them.

He's bullshitting you about the attorney part. That's probably the line he uses to get strippers to notice him.

Lord knows, it's not because of his charm and wit.

That's what he told his customer. It's a good thing he hides behind a website. You tell somebody that same thing in person, they'll knock your d**n teeth out.

It's just not the way normal people do business.

Then, to come here and post the customer's name and phone number. How does that look? Who wants to be the next customer? Hell, they'd be too scared of their name and number ending up on a web site.

Then, the long list of fake, pretend customers. What's up with the pink bikes?

Doesn't he sell any other colors?

Trust me, no attorney is this stupid. Law school is hard. So, is the bar exam. An idiot like this couldn't pass either of them.

He's bullshitting you about the attorney part. That's probably the line he uses to get strippers to notice him.

Lord knows, it's not because of his charm and wit.

I live in Garland. It is a suburb of Dallas. I have been to the oweners business and residence. He has quite the operation. The warehouse is huge and full of bikes (it is actually in Dallas). I bought and resold some of the bikes at Traders Village and Canton Monday Trade Days. Never had any problems with the bikes or doing business with this company.

BEST BICYCLE SELLER ON THE INTERNET

#40Consumer Comment

Thu, June 30, 2005

I bought a couple of bikes from these guys and had no problems.

I read Forrest complaint and just don't get it. He orders on the 9th of April which was a Saturday and by the following Wednesday is already hounding these guys?

If Forrest needed the bike the next week he should have bought it at the local Wal-mart. Doesn't he get it that shipping takes time and if the store had to get it from a manufacture of course there would be delays. From the time Forrest ordered the bike on the weekend until he had it at his house exactly three weeks had passed. What is his beef? He doesen't say he didn't get a good deal or that the bike wasn't good so what is the complaint?? It took three weeks?? I ordered some chairs on ebay three months ago and they still haven't showed up? Forrest you should be ashamed of yourself with your pettiness.

I say Forrest is the bad person here and not the company. I have bought from these guys and would do it again.

Gayle. And, all the rest of the fake names you're using to file rebuttals.

I just went to google and searched for justbicycles.

The justbicycle site is in number one and two positions.

THIS is in number 6 position.

Rip-off Report.com - badbusinessbureau.com
------------------------------------------
Colton Enterprises - Justbicycles ripoff Garland Texas *REBUTTAL employee ..Customer
tries to rip off ... On-Line Stores: Colton Enterprises - Justbicycles ...

Number 6, fool. Right on the first page. Anybody will see it.

You've already screwed up your business bad. People will come here and read the complaint.

Then, they will read how you treated your customers.

On top of it, they will read all the fake comebacks you made.

First gayle is in Texas, then California.

Then, you pretend to be fake customers. No real people talk like the nonsense you wrote.

I can't figure out how justbicycles is able to sell these bikes at such incredibly low prices

Customers don't talk like that. You idiot. Everybody knows that's fake.

Plus, you put the customer's names on here.

If you keep this up, these complaints will move up to the number three position, right under your site.

You will ruin the business completely.

Here's a tip. Say you're SORRY. Do the right thing. If you continue to come here and act like an a*****e, that's what people will see when they read all this.

And, since it's right on the google first page, you can d**n well count on the fact that lots of people will be reading this.

You're probably going to have to change sites before this is all over.

With your next name, smarten up. Learn from the stupid things you did here.

It's completely up to you. Like I said before, you don't belong in the bicycle business anyway.

So, go ahead, make that happen. See what I care!

Like you told Forrest You know what the options are and what the consequences are

Not so funny now, huh?

Who is "Gayle" - Check out reports on this company under sporting goods bicycles2go/Colton Industries and Colton Enterprises bicycles2go

I think it's easy to figure out who Gayle truly is. Check out reports on this company under sporting goods bicycles2go/Colton Industries and Colton Enterprises bicycles2go.

In both reports there are responses from Jack Clayton, the dishonorable merchant I am complaining about, that are signed by Gayle in Garland, Texas and by Gayle in L.A. California. He even posted another customer's full name, address and telephone number. What a scumbag!

Be a man Jack! Stop hiding behind your alter ego, Gayle the terrified employee or Gale the satisfied customer and just be the sorry, dishonorable merchant you truly are! The truth shall set you free.

I purchased my daughter a Pink Banana Seat Bicycle from www.justbicycles.com, my husband a Three Speed Bicycle and myself a Pink Beach Cruiser all over the last year and without any problems at all.

I fiqure I saved over a hundred dollars per bike and quite frankly can't fiqure out how www.justbicycles.com is able to sell these bikes at such incredibly low prices.

I will definately purchase from this company again. Great Place for Great Bicycles! www.justbicycles.com

Excellent Bikes and Excellent Service

#40Consumer Comment

Sun, June 26, 2005

I realize everyone has a different perception but I have bought five bikes from this company (www.justbicycles.com) over a three year period. Each time I have received excellent service and wonderful bicycles. I have bookmarked this company and plan to purchase many more bikes from them.

Perhaps these complainers shouldn't buy on the Internet? Forrest Smalley the original complainer doesn't say he didn't get his bike or that it wasn't a great bike. His complaint is that he didn't get it as fast as he wanted. I'm sure the local bike store had the same bike at more money.

As for me I got an excellent product at an excellent price from www.justbicycles.com and will buy again.

Here it is! The worst company in here for the month of June. These guys take the prize!

#40Consumer Suggestion

Sat, June 25, 2005

This bike fraud is the worst thing I've read here in a long time.

First, they don't send your bike. That's because they have no bikes to send. They're obviously running a drop ship scam.

Then, they won't communicate with you. Won't answer the phone.

The email is what really takes the cake. If you don't take the bicycle a month late, we'll lie and screw up your credit.

The other choice is to pay 30% for nothing.

Then, they come here and claim to be afraid of someone who's 1000 miles away. A court order? For a man who is 1000 miles away?

Plus, posting your name and phone number.

Bad, bad bicycle salespeople. Worse liars. Their story makes no sense.

Not only should these people be banned from the bicycle business, and the internet, but the human race as well.

I don't care if they sent you a bike made out of solid gold, Forrest. It wasn't worth that kind of trouble for any price!

It's going to be months before you'll find another company this bad. On this site, that's saying a lot.

There should be some kind of prize for the person who reports the worst company each month. This one looks like a sure winner. Fraud of the month. What an honor!

Thanks for the warning. You probably just saved thousands of other buyers from the same nightmare that you went through.

The person from Colton Enterprises who rebutted my posting is, simply put, a liar. First of all I never spoke to anyone at that company. They do not answer the phone. Secondly, I never asked for my order to ship ahead of any other order. I simply requested that the order be shipped. Lastly, This individual felt it necessary to post my full name, address and telephone number. What a bunch of scumbags!

I did finely get the bike that was shipped after the order had been canceled and have paid for it. Did I make them work for payment? Yes. At the time the charge was disputed they had not shipped the goods. Fair warning to anyone thinking about doing business with this company They are not honorable merchants.

I'm not an owner of the company. I remember this guy because his behavior was so bizarre. He placed his order and within 5 days was calling threatening employees because he wanted his order shipped ahead of other customers. When he was told that his order would be shipped in the order it was received his threats and phone calls increased. We were all scared of him. Even after he was provided the tracking number from the manufacture his bizarre behavior continued. He tried to dispute the credit card charge and still keep the bike. His name is;
