Complaint Review: Joan Olson

I have not received refundable deposit of $100 owed to me.  I contacted Joan Olson in early December of 2013 regarding the purchase of one of her great dane puppies.  She urged me to wire her a $100 via Walmart's MoneyGram to be put on a waiting list for the opportunity to pick one of her puppies.  She reassured me several times that it was a completely refundable deposit but it gave me the opportunity to decide if I wanted one of her puppies. On December 19th I wired $100 for a fee of $11.40 to Joan Olson of Missouri.  As I was at the end of the waiting list, it wasn't until January 1 when all of her puppies had been spoken for except the runt and on other that I was allowed to chose. By that thime, I had fallen in love with a great dane from another breeder and purchased their puppy.  I notified Joan immediately and she was very understanding and said she would send my money to me via mail including the fees I was required to pay to wire her the money.  I did not recieve the money promptly as promised and again contacted her on January 27th via text.  Her response was "Oh, so sorry! I guess I forgot.  I'll get it right out to you!"  Well, to date I have yet to receive the monies owed to me.  I even sent her a text yesterday stating that I had not received the money owed to me but she has yet to respond.  in short, Joan Olson has not kept her word.  She was insistent about receiving my refundable $100 deposit yet fails to refund rightfully owed money to me.  I just want to warn future buyers that she is not an oustanding business woman in our society.  I find her practices fraudulent!
