Prime Selection extreme food poisoning, rotten meat, wont refund $1200, abusive treatment! san diego, California
This company disgust me. On Monday, March 5th, 2012 I received an unexpected knock on my door. It was a very unusual time around eleven o'clock a.m. especially on a military base. When I opened the door and didn't recognize the two men standing there, I asked what I could do for them. "Chris and Corey" explained my neighbor had sent them to my home because they didn't want to buy all the meat they ordered.
I found this even more strange being that we just moved here from Alabama and know no one. I let them continue speaking about their "wonderful" company and the "great" sale they are advertising for 1,256.00 you get four SMALL boxes of meat and a TINY deep freeze. I made the dumb decision to take them up on their offer. I feed three Marines a day! I need all the food I can get!
They delivered the meat and deep freeze and I post dated four checks for $314.00 each to the company "Prime Selection" The two men gave me specific directions on how to thaw and cook the meat. I followed their directions exactly. My husband got a TERRIBLE case of food poisoning the next day. I had tried on three separate occasions to contact the company. All the info on the internet for the company is incorrect. I finally reach the "head honcho" Glen YESTERDAY!
Its now May ... after explaining to this Glen man that I felt ripped off by him, the same fillet and type of fish was different colors, and my husband almost admitted to the emergency room, all this mad had to say was "look b*tch, ya ain't getting sh*t from me!" Not only had this man talked to me like a dog. When the two men left my house after delivering the meat in March, I recall call from the military police making me aware that they are scanner and solicitors and that's illegal on any military installation!
I just want my money back! Please!

PrimeSelection had an order on base we are an approved contractor thru rapid gate for the military that has done multiple backround and home land security checks on Chris gallager his credentialID # is 10000242554 affilition vender department of defense, Rapids gates phone number is 877 727 4342. One of the neighbors reffered us to her,claiming she was a new move in.Corey explained to her that the neighbors sent him over to ask if she was interested in any of the product. She was very interested so they decided to show her the product. She called her husband and after discussing all the options they decided on a freezer deal that we let her post date for her convienience into 4 payments on good faith. All exchanges that were requested were taken care of and Chris was told multiple times via text and calls how great the product was. There was an issue with her fourth payment and thats when the customer changed her whole story six weeks into the plan. We have an A rating with the better business bureau that she also made a complaint with, if you look it up with the bbb you will see it was resolved. Two weeks later Chris received a full cash payment for the remaining ballance and the customer was apologetic to Chris fo her actions. All food is tested at our plant for safety you can check out eprimecuts.com and press about us then press food safety and read for youself. As an owner i never cursed at this customer or any customer for that matter and would like this slanderous publication removed. our number is 1800 775 6328 if you have any questions.

We sell thousands of military customers every month,We are a licenced vendor on base thru Rapidgate. We have been in business for 20 years with a A BBB rating. As for this incident we are the ones that got ripped off! This lady put a stop payment on her check and never gave us back our food, We should of sued her but instead we gave her check to our collection agency access capital, We still havent got paid...My conversation to her was that it is not OK to keep our prduct and not pay, So she ate over $400 dollars in food and didn't spend a dime and we are on rip off ripoff report crazy.
