Complaint Review: Natures Produce

RIPOFF REPORT VIP ARBITRATION

SUMMARY OF ARBITRATOR’S DECISION

Nature’s Produce, Complainant

v.

Anonymous, Author of Report #1218317,

________________________________________________________________________

Complainant Nature’s Produce (the “Complainant”) has challenged the truthfulness of certain specific statements (each, a “Statement”) posted by Author “Blonders” (the “Author”) on the Ripoff Report website at www.ripoffreport.com as Ripoff Report #1218317 (the “Report”). The Author accused the Complainant of lying. The Complainant denies the allegations. The Author did not respond, and therefore, in accordance with the Ripoff Report VIP Arbitration Rules (the “Rules), the Author waived their right to participate in this Arbitration. By submitting a Report and a Complaint on the Ripoff Report websites, both the Complainant and the Author have agreed to submit the dispute to the Ripoff Report VIP Arbitration Program.

In accordance with the Rules, the Arbitrator was asked to decide whether the challenged Statements were an opinion or a fact. If, and only if, the Statement was determined to be a statement of fact, the Arbitrator was asked to further decided if, by a preponderance of the evidence, to determine if the Statement was true or false. If the statement identified by the Complainant is determined to be an opinion, no determination will be made as to that particular Statement because an opinion cannot be determined to be true nor false.

In this case, the Arbitrator had only the evidence submitted by the Complainant to consider. The evidence submitted included Ripoff Report #1218317, Complainant’s Arbitration Statement, Complainant’s Witness Statements, and supporting documentation.

Each Statement challenged by the Complainant has been considered, together with any Witness Statements and Documents provided by the Complainant for determination of the truth or falsity of the Statement. The Author did not provide a response to the Complaint.

The Arbitrator determined that the certain statements challenged in the Report were false. Therefore, according to the VIP Arbitration Rules, those statements have been redacted.

Decided June 10, 2015,

Sandra J. Franklin, Arbitrator

To the consumers/restaurants/businesses in the greater Los Angeles area.  I am not accustomed to writing reports on/against any business but I just want to make sure that the produce that leaves Natures Produce is ((Statement REDACTED as false pursuant to Ripoff Report VIP Arbitration)).  Most of the time it seems correct but there have been instances where the produce seemed ((Statement REDACTED as false pursuant to Ripoff Report VIP Arbitration)).  Usually ((Statement REDACTED as false pursuant to Ripoff Report VIP Arbitration)) and do not appear as ((Statement REDACTED as false pursuant to Ripoff Report VIP Arbitration)).  However sometimes ((Statement REDACTED as false pursuant to Ripoff Report VIP Arbitration)). 

It is extremely important to me that I can trust the ((Statement REDACTED as false pursuant to Ripoff Report VIP Arbitration)).  Individuals who need to have pure whole foods should be able to ((Statement REDACTED as false pursuant to Ripoff Report VIP Arbitration)).  ((Statement REDACTED as false pursuant to Ripoff Report VIP Arbitration)).  ((Statement REDACTED as false pursuant to Ripoff Report VIP Arbitration)).  Its starts with this and just gets worst over time; More and more becomes excusable and eventually just becomes their standard practice for all aspects of their business.

I may be wrong but the concern is real.  Be aware and keep an eye.  Hopefully we can help to keep them ((Statement REDACTED as false pursuant to Ripoff Report VIP Arbitration)) with all of the consumers in the LA area keeping a watchful eye on them.  ((Statement REDACTED as false pursuant to Ripoff Report VIP Arbitration))
