Bonnie Woodie Big Water Design Took Deposit to make custom jacket. More money at fitting plus postage and never delivered jacket Grande Arizona
Met this person at a outdoor craft fair in Carefree. Gave her a deposit for a semi-custom jacket. When she came to my home for a fitting, I was concerned that the jacket was not anywere near ready for a fitting. She spent a long time talking to me about her life. Then she said she needed the balance plus shipping costs and she would send the jacket to me within the next two weeks. I never received the jacket. She never contacted me again. I called her many times and she always had some excuse why she could not send the jacket. A couple times she would tell me she was going to be in town on a specific day but never showed up. She would just have more excuses or her voice mail was full and I could not leave anymore messages.
Finally I called my credit card company that I put the deposit on and placed a dispute. She called me after that and said she would deliver the jacket. I never heard from her again. The credit card company told me she said she sent the jacket. This was not true. She could not prove it and it was taken off my bill. I am out the balance plus shipping because I paid that part with a check. It seems this is what she does. I am not even sure she is a seamstresss. Maybe just a rip off artist.
I called the company that runs the fairs in Carefree and it seems she did not pay them either. They have banned her from exhibiting at any future fairs.
I hope people read this so that they do not get ripped off by this person. It is a terrible thing to get ripped off like this. I cannot imagine how people can be so deceitful. Lesson learned is to always pay with a credit card and to find a way to check people out before giving them any money. My mistake was to give her the balance before getting the jacket.
