Tell us has your experience with this business or person been good? What's this?
This Company's website is set up to deceive consumers.  The product states it will deter dogs from barking by emitting a high-pitched electronic sound that only dogs can hear!

I wanted 2 Bark Offs with their "Buy 1 Get 1" offer of $10. Each page you advance through tries to upsell you to buy -2- more so each time you click you want 2, it adds 2 more.  The pages read as if you are confirming the TOTAL units you want, but ADDS 2 or more each time. I also asked for an AC adapter.  Shipping was to be 6-8 weeks.

When I checked out I was buying ** 8 ** BarkOffs and my total was also $90.91!! You cannot amend your order.  I immediately called 800-777-4034 and was told that my order was "so new" it wasn't in their system and to call back in a couple of days with my order number. I never received a confirming e-mail.  Three days later I received a SHIPPING CONFIRMATION.  What happened to the 6-8 weeks?? I called them again and they said it was too late to amend my order.  I received an RMA. I was steaming hot!

 Part of the $90.91 was $43.93 in SHIPPING.  I had my UPS store weigh the box and it was 1.8 pounds. Their postage cost was only $9.03.  I NEVER RECEIVED the AC Adapter.

I have asked American Express to investigate this also. I will NEVER EVER buy from these scam artists again.
