Hobbies Discount Chris Oliver placed orders in mid October; send confirmation of shipment to me via email, November 6 with bogus tracking number. Good never delivered, although they had debited my account. unknown Internet
On October 16, I made a purchase through this online store before I did research. That being said, when I ordered the item, I was given an invite to get another identical item at half price. I did not receive an immediate confirmation. I checked my online banking and noticed that there were two debits for the exact amount (no discount on the second) entered on October 18. On November 6, 2016, I finally received a confirmation the items had been shipped and gave me a tracking number which did not work. Finally, I contacted the company via the only mode of communication being email, and received another email back indicating my shipment would arrive within 15 days. Two months later, I have not received the merchandise I purchased. My email inquireies were ignored.
I recently checked the tracking number, which miraculously worked. Apparently my merchandise was "being processed for shipment". However, the shipment to this day, has not yet happened. Several other scam reporting sites indicate the same situation. Goods paid for, but never delivered. No phone number is associated with the company. Here is what I gathered from another scam reporting service. The owner of the website is using a service that hides their identity; the server is located in Ottawa, Ontario Canada; Better Business Bureau had a company of the same name in its data, but indicated that company, located in Tennessee, was no longer in business with no forwarding information. Also to note, the website is 286 days old, the shelf life of the website is 365 days.
