Company called secretary and "surveyed" what common office supplies we use. Secretary told them, and during conversation they get her name.

Then they send pens, highlighters and paper clips for $81.05 with free shipping. Of course, with such a valuable shipment they had to insure for $5.40!!!

They never sign their correspondence or invoices. I have reported them to my state's attorney general for consumer fraud.

Leslie Judson Shekell is an attorney in Kentucky. Her secretary Becky Lawson placed an order for office supplies from us on 5/21/03. We actually called her, (as we do with every order), Becky Lawson to confirm the order, the day after it was placed on 5/22/03, prior to shipping the merchandise. She agreed to the cost and the terms. We sent the order out on 30 day net. Giving her plenty of time to contact us if there was a problem. It was their first order. Thier bill was due on 6/21/03. We sent out past due invoices and 3 letters. On 7/23/03 we started calling their offices and left messages for them to contact us until 11/26/03. When someone finally answered the phone. They said they were sorry and had never recieved an invoice. We offered to fax the invoice and they said their fax machine was broken. We then sent a hard copy in the mail. We just kept getting the run around. Had they called us within a reasonable time frame, we would have taken the merchandise back at our own expense. They still haven't paid their bill and we're the only one's out of pocket.
