Complaint Review: Futon Planet

well darn, i wish i knew about this site. i would have never bought from Futon Planet. i do like my cover, haven't washed it yet though.
they have these GRIPPER STRIPS

"Gripper strips are a non-skid material specially designed to create the maximum holding power for you futon mattress. Because their design is so well-though and because they are sold in pairs, Gripper Strips create a holding power that is unlike any other non-slip material on the market."

magic... right? (seriously, they talk it up. There is a VIDEO check it out)
NO! they are 1/4in. gray foam, you know, the kind that disintegrates in a week or so, with a sticky back.
Jennifer was nice enough to pass along the following AWESOME deal from Rima LeBlanc (the owner), who was "on vacation"...who she just spoke with...

Gripper strips
=$29.99-$10.00(for me to send them back)-$12.75(refund her shipping costs ***they didn't charge for shipping***) =$7.24!!! MY REFUND
W H A T ? ?
Well judging from the other two complaints, since i already complained to the BBB I will not be getting my $7.24. I'll send it to the BBB, maybe they want it.

so... the reason they suck.
the strip, which is the full length of the futon, is a fully sticky... meaning in between the slats on the futon, there are exposed sticky parts to attract...whatever wants to stick to it? You would think "FUTON PLANET" knows what a futon looks like, slats and all. The 1/4in. piece of gray foam sucks...it wouldn't keep JACK SH** in place.
you know, if i had gone to a craft store and bought the same thing for... $7.24... hahaha and it was my own brilliant solution to my slipping futon mattress then i wouldn't care, but the fact is that they charged my $29.99 for a POS and refuse to admit it.

Jennifer, Rima and Gabe can go to he**....

that felt good
