Complaint Review: THE PSYCHIC EYE BOOK SHOP - Las Vegas Nevada

I too agree that the owner values money in pocket over doing whats right. I went there to get supplies and as soon as i walked in i felt quite off. very negetive  feeling and the things i could here employess talking about were things that should be left outside of work. customers were complaining and nobody seemed to wanna help me with what i was looking for.

i left there without buying anything and went home. i will never go back. and as for the readings, i have someone that does that and has always been correct in her predictions, every one of them for 25 years. just remember, that negativity can follow so anything you buy there i would consider tainted with negativity and would run away as i did, very fast.

the reality of the situations are as follows 1: no one is forcing you to get a reading. 2:readings are purely for entertainment only and are not to be taken as truth but ENTERTAINMENT!... the readers are independant contractors who are all licenced by the state in which they work they rent a space to do readings and have guidelines to follow in order to work in the stores . one of which is NO OUTSIDE WORK ..all readings or reader related activities such as parties should be booked through the store not the reader. we do have a five minute time limit on refunds but we can also move you to another reader of your choice ... it is up to the customer to decide who they want to read with .. ALL readers have bios which are available to the customer at the store, over the phone or on the website . if you did not do your research you might not like your reader but remember you chose that person to read for you. YOU CHOSE TO CALL AND GET A READING ... YOU CHOSE TO COME IN AND GET A READING .. YOU ALSO CHOSE TO INGNORE THE FACT THAT READINGS ARE FOR ENTERTAINMENT ONLY. YOU CHOSE NOT TO DO RESEARCH ON THE READER YOU ARE GOING TO READ WITH ... THERE FOR YOU DEAL WITH THE CONSEQUENCE OF NO REFUND .. if you are willing to spend 30 dollars to have someone tell you your future then you should be wiling to lose that 30 dollars .. its the same concept of going to see a movie that ended up being horrible .. you took the chance o se it and it just didnt turn out how you wanted ... deal with it and stop getting readings if you are SOOOO offended.

I don't know what the contractual relationship is between the store and contractor, but I just can't imagine how a store, which is trying to uphold its reputation, would allow contractors to fleece clients out of thousands of dollars money. What does the store have to gain from such a shady deal? If the store declined to allow such promotions ($3000 for healings), it would still receive a cut of the normal priced reading during billable hours. It makes sense that if the store is defending $3000 healings, that it is also getting a cut of those promotions and then trying to deflect responsibility by claiming the readers who push such services are merely contractors. If the store doesn't receive a cut of those services, it should not allow them. If it does, then it should be responsible for their efficacy. In truth, I have not lost an incredible amount of money nor do I use PEB services that often. I certainly would never use them again. My experience is that the readers and management only care about getting your money and show a callous disregard for patrons. The fact that readers were trying to get my last name and address raised serious red flags with me. Seems that some of them are underhanded and are potentially conartists or sociopaths. You're right -- why give money to a complete stranger who offers nothing but BS? Well, you have five minutes to judge their suitability and "connection." When the connection is great, it's truly an honor to be read. But when they BS, it's painful as you end up feeling robbed. These people are dangerous. I admit that a few times they have seemed to be so on target that I have allowed them to poison my mind and to implant things into my thought processes which have hurt me...or I have taken action based upon anticipation of their "predictions," which never come to pass. I admit I am an idiot for ever trusting a stranger or putting my life in the hands of someone who doesn't have my highest good at heart. Some of these so-called readers seem down right evil and will say things just to be hurtful adn devastating. On my last reading, I ended up having to contradict every evil thought which the reader tried to put into my head as she tried to demoralize me. Her negative predictions and insights all proved to be wrong, yet she aggressively tried to convince me her worst case scenarios would materialize. She was also dumb as dirt. PEB has signed some truly amazing readers but they also have quite a few conartists and people who are evil and like playing mindgames. They also share information about patrons, even though they claim they done. For example, one made a prediction for me. I refined my vision and got a reading from another and told her of an obstacle. When I spoke to the first reader again, she informed me that obstacle, expecting it had applied to what we discussed together, but in actuality the development was connecteed to my discussion with the second reader. It was clear she didn't "divine" the development, but merely parroted what another reader told her about me and then misinterpreted it and fed it back to me. It was equally clear that the two were saying nasty things about me and then spewing that venom at me when I called. Both were also trying to elicit my personal information -- first, last name, address, full names of people inquired about, which they attempted to get under subterfuge -- claiming they wanted to send me free things. Why would anyone in business want to send someone something for free -- especially someone for whom the contractors have such obvious contempt? I don't think their intentions were honorable. I am very disappointed. As I said, I am done with PEB. I don't know what the contractual relationship is just that there is a high turn over rate with readers. It seems the frauds are weeded out or just move on. The readers who have longevity with the company seem to be the most gifted and legitimate. Some are astoundingly gifted, compassionate, and wise. The Bible warns against consulting psychics -- and this advice is prudent for nothing good ever seems to come from readings nor do readers ultimately deliver the truth. While they may perceive some of the truth, the inherent falsehoods inevitably lead one astray. Ultimately one must rely on oneself.

I keep reading these reports. Mostly I don't know why someone would be handing over these mass amounts of money to someone they barely know period, much less to be transferred to someone who has every indication of being fictitious. Who knew it could be so easy. My question is this. Based on their answers to everyone who has complained to Robert(?), does anyone know if these folks actually RENT their space from him? Like in a salon. They are independant, he provides the venue, and they pay him for it. Someone mentioned they must be employees due to certain laws. I have seen people sign contracts which go against some of the laws here and they were upheld in the end because it is a right to work state and they agreed to it ultimately. Their rights were to be asserted before they signed a contract not after. Go figure. A landlord can require a business to be open certain hours in the rental contract (is common actually). So they could be independants whom rent from him, but have agreed to conduct their business during certain hours/days per their rental space contract. I would advise finding out whom you actually need to be holding responsible here. I would also find out if this Dr. Bev (?) actually exists. That may be a completely different ballgame than a psychic whom is taking your money for a reading which is likely to be innaccurate for entertainment purposes. *just my opinions*

Yes, no one NEEDS a reading. To be honest, not a single prediction given to me from PEB has come to pass. At the most, they have validated my perceptions, but then I don't know whether they were just reading my feelings or the situation. For my part, I am done. The store needs to remember ethics. If these readers are "private contractors," then why is the store allowing them to pitch $3k services? That should be done off hours and not within the auspices of the store. Why would a store what the publicity backlash from a reader's private business services? What does the store have to gain by allowing this unless the store receives a cut of the profits? The moment you put $ ahead of ethics, you lose. You should go for a win-win -- in all resolution to help yourselves and help the client. And in every situation you should do what is right. If the store is in the wrong, assume responsibility. If the client is, explain how he/she is wrong and then address the issue honesty and with respect vs. callousness. Clients should not share information. I find out that they do, even though they promise they don't. One reader who was wrong on every account of me then fed back information I had given another reader. THis is a huge violation of confidentiality and reader ethics. She also was evil in her reading and provided false and vicious information to me to demoralize me and "punish" me. I was also asked for my personal information -- and was told to give her my full name and address so she could send me "free" gifts to heal my hurting. Sorry, I am not hurting and I am not giving our my personal information to a reader. A few other times the reader who shared my information with her asked for my last name too and for the last names of people I inquired about....This after saying hateful, vicious, and untrue things to me... Readers may be private contractors, but PEB should screen them and demand and role model the highest standards of ethics and integrity. They also should stay away from being arm chair psychoanalysts. Their job is to provide information in a diplomatic, kind, articulate fashion and intuitive insight -- not subjective interpretation and random opinions. Readings are not a good investment of money and the readers here have shown, in many instances, complete contempt for clients and lack of professionalism and honesty.

I DO NOT GO TO OCCULT BOOK STORES TO GET "READINGS." I DO MY OWN. I GO THERE TO BUY NEW AGE MUSIC AND SEE IF THERE ARE ANY NEW TAROT CARDS FOR MY COLLECTION OR NEW BOOKS AND JUST TO SEE WHAT IS THERE. I DO NOT GO TO GET READINGS THERE. IF SOMEONE IS DOING READINGS, I WILL EAVESDROP AND IF I LIKE WHAT I HEAR AND SEE, I MIGHT HAVE A READING DONE BUT THAT IS NOT WHY I GO TO THE STORE FOR IN THE FIRST PLACE. TO AVOID RIP-OFFS, NOBODY IS GETTING A PISTOL TO YOUR HEAD AND FORCING YOU TO HAVE A READING DONE, YOU KNOW. YOU GO TO THE STORE AND YOU GET YOUR MERCHANDISE AND THEN YOU PAY FOR IT AND LEAVE. NO NONSENSE, NO HASSLES. JUST GET WHAT YOU CAME FOR AND LEAVE. HOW HARD IS THAT TO DO?

AS OF TODAY, JAN 21, 2009, OWNER ROBERT STILL WILL NOT CALL US BACK IN REFERENCE TO OUR COMPLAINT ABOUT HIS READER, ABBY MACH. THIS WOMAN OR USED TO BE MAN HAS RIPPED OFF SO MANY PEOPLE OUT OF THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS AND ROBERT CONDONES ALL OF IT! WE HAVE CALLED AND LEFT MESSAGES FOR ROBERT, WE HAVE EMAILED HIM BUT STILL, NO RESPONSE. HE KNOWS EXACTLY WHAT ABBY MACH OR ABBY SINCLAIRE OR ALVIN SINCLAIRE (ALL THE SAME PERSON-ALVIN WAS HIS/HER BIRTH NAME) IS DOING. WE SPOKE TO ROBERT 1 TIME TO EXPLAIN OUR SITUATION ABOUT ABBY CONING US OUT OF THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS AND ALL THE OWNER, ROBERT, COULD SAY WAS THAT "ABBY IS AN INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR, NOT AN EMPLOYEE", NOT ANYTHING LIKE HE'S SORRY TO HEAR THIS AND WILL LOOK INTO IT OR WHAT CAN WE DO TO RECTIFY THIS PROBLEM, THE NORMAL RESPONSE FROM A NORMAL OWNER. SO WE DEFINETLY BELIEVE THAT WITH THAT KIND OF RESPONSE FROM THE OWNER, HE TOO MUST BE INVOLVED AND CONDONES WHAT ABBY DOES-RIP VULNERABLE PEOPLE OFF. THIS MUST BE HOW MR. ROBERT, THE OWNER, CAN AFFORD TO OPEN UP MORE STORES. OBVIOUSLY, HE'S NOT AN HONEST OR CARING PERSON, HE'S JUST ALL ABOUT HOW MUCH MONEY HE COLLECTED THAT DAY. IF YOU'RE LOOKING FOR A DESCENT READER IN AN ESTABLISHMENT WHO RUNS ON HONESTY AND INTEGRITY, THEN STAY AWAY FROM THE PSYCHIC EYE BOOK STORE IN LAS VEGAS, NV. THE OWNER ROBERT IS ANYTHING BUT HONEST AND HAS ABSOLUTELY NO INTEGRITY AS DOES ABBY MACH OR WHATEVER NAME THE HE/SHE IS GOING BY THESE DAYS!

I must say that the PEB does have good readers but the good ones never seem to stay long. Not sure why that is. I take issue with some of the practices with PEB. In some of the stores you will have to pay in advance to book a reading but then the person who takes the call will "accidentally?" book the wrong time. When you call at the agreed upon time, she will say the money cannot be refunded since you missed your appointment. Doesn't matter whether you misunderstood or whether she misunderstood -- but the PEB will take the money anyway even though no service was rendered. I think this one double booked -- in order to drum up profits. They just help themselves to your money and there is nothing you can do about it. I have also had issues with readers being unprofessional. One PEB reader I spoke to recently could not see anything about my situation and wasted the entire session offering New Age platitudes along the lines of -- putting honey out to "attract bees" (business/bees. get it?!) She kept tellign me why I didn't have a man -- since my chakras were not aligned properly. (Guess what! I am in a wodnerful relationship, but she didn't see that either.) The whole session was devoted to her strange, deluded philosophy and amounted to a whole string of fortune cookie phrases. "Go with the flow and all will be revealed to you." In response to questions she would say: "I don't; know, why don't you meditate on it." Isn't that what I'm paying her for. She took what little information I gave and offered a common sense response -- which was completely off. I thought I was paying for a reading not feeble minded quess work. By the end of the session, I felt robbed. This woman bragged to me, on my dime, that I am getting her gifts for (the rate of session) as opposed ot the usual $1000 she charges people for these services. IN response to a statement that a man had sexually accosted me, I was told that I must be "putting out the energy" inviting him to molest me and I needed to rethink my energy output. Huh? She was basically blaming the victim for having been raped based upon energy. I asked her, "You feel I am putting energy out there, inviting men to rape me?" Her response: "You must have had issues from childhood with men which attracted this man to violate you." She had no idea what she was talking about. This man also did the same to a lot of women in the area. DId they all have child hood issues too?How am I responsible for the behavior of other people? Gee you got hit by a car. YOu must have had a "run me over" energy field around you today. This woman was spouting off New Age nonsense she had read in some book and trying ot pass it off as wisdom and insight. I asked about a work concern and I was told "Ohhh, if you are uncomfortable, there must be a presence in the room. Someone died and is haunting the place." I could have gotten better advice from a drunken bum on the street. "Oh yes...I can feel the presence now. Someone died there." BS. Nothing was dead but her brain. After her rambling nonsense, she had the gall to tell me, "if you wish to continue, you will need to pay me more money or I will have to end here." I wanted my money back. I feel so screwed by PEB. She babbled about nothing throughout my entire session, could not answer a single question posed to her in any coherent, relevant fashion and then asked me if I would like to extend the session. Her responses were like those of a gypsy...not those I would have expected from the PEB. I do believe the PEB does hire good talent overall and the prices are reasonble. However, the aforementioned lady was not worth a penny -- in fact, she should have paid me for my time to listen to her BS. Yes, management is very unresponsive to concerns. They will deny their readers ever do anything wrong, provide poor service, etc. It'ds entire your fault if you stay on the line more than five minutes, beyond your refund deadline while the reader is chatting about his/her life, prattling about nonsense, instead of doing the job for which he/she was hired. THey will take your money and run. Their system is working as they are now opening a new store. Another reader there also screwed me over. This one found out what I did for a living and then asked me to help her (for free!!) I spent several hours helping her. She said she would read for me off hours as part of "payment"...and then when I called her. She wouldn't give me the time of day. She took my assistance and ran. She has also used up time during a reading to chat about her life and her career plans. When I have reined her in, telling her that I would like her to focus on my questions and reading instead of on herself while we are on the clock, she responds that I shouldn't worry as she will call me after hours to chat to make up for it. Of course the call never comes -- and I have essentially spent money to hear a reader promote herself and to hear herself talk. There is nothing I can do about this except to turn my back on PEB. Management doens't care. They are only concerned with making money. If you get screwed by a reader, well, they will tell you that all readers are independent contractors and if you don't like that one, call (ie, give them more money) to chat with someone else, but you will never see a refund. Some readers have wasted the time pitching services like their home healing remedies, etc. Ask about work or whatever and you will hear..."Oh...buy my green candles and you will see prosperity in your life. For $9.99 you can get a set of six..and here is my web site address." Why do we have to pay to hear advertisements. THe moment a company turns greedy, and resorts to such unscrupulous practices, then you know you are not dealing with an honest broker. I am wondering how else are they screwing you just to make more money -- like do they share info on clients to make themselves look legit? I swear sometimes they can't tell me a d**n thing beyond what I shared with them. They spout it back to me in some plausible way and then call that a reading. I feel robbed and that these readers have contempt for their clients. They treat us as free money as opposed to being grateful for our business. As for accuracy, some are good...but all in all...I can't tell you how many predictions have not come to fruition. I hate how these readers pretend to be your friend, make false promises, steal your money, and run. It's truly a disgrace. Ok, I can't get a refund, but I didn't spend that much. I just won't give them any moer of my hard earned dollars. Can you imagine going into a law office, having the attorney chat about his children for the entire hour -- and then turn around and say, "that'll be $500 please!" If you protest that the lawyer refused to provide legal counsel (your whole point for being there)...In no other profession coudl anyone get away with this. What about going to a counselor and having that professional talk aobut his laundry and shopping list for the day and tehn billing you for his time. can you imagine going to his supervisor and being told that nothing can be done and perhaps you should pay for another and keep paying until one does his job? That is the PEB experience. No professionalism or commitment to the client. You book the time. They fill up that time with empty words and take your dollars. Oh I could love for someone to visit my office -- and while I pitch my services have that person sit there and foot the bill while I do no work....or to just make up stuff and feed that to the person, without even bothering to think about the question at hand or draw from any knowledge. What is your counsel for fixing this business dilemma? Why, you should burn a candle and meditate on it and then you tell me! Can you imagine telling a client that and getting paid? You'd be fired on the spot. Your client's suggestion on how to make the business more profitable and competitive? "Oh, why just smear honey all over your front door and burn some incense..then the customers will roll in." That's basically the level of a PEB reading....absolute nonsense. Having said that...some are very good...but the good ones never stick around. The ones who remain are negative and flakes. They are greedy little parasites and ungifted at that.

I must say that the PEB does have good readers but the good ones never seem to stay long. Not sure why that is. I take issue with some of the practices with PEB. In some of the stores you will have to pay in advance to book a reading but then the person who takes the call will "accidentally?" book the wrong time. When you call at the agreed upon time, she will say the money cannot be refunded since you missed your appointment. Doesn't matter whether you misunderstood or whether she misunderstood -- but the PEB will take the money anyway. I think this one double booked -- in order to drum up profits. They just help themselves to your money and there is nothing you can do about it. I have also had issues with readers being unprofessional. One PEB reader I spoke to recently could not see anything about my situation and wasted the entire session offering New Age platitudes along the lines of -- putting honey out to "attract bees" (business/bees. get it?!) She kept tellign me why I didn't have a man -- since my chakras were not aligned properly. (Guess what! I am in a wodnerful relationship, but she didn't see that either.) The whole session was devoted to her strange, deluded philosophy like a whole strong of fortune cookie phrases. "Go with the flow and all will be revealed to you." In response to questions she would say: "I don't; know, why don't you meditate on it." Isn't thjat what I'm paying her for. She took what little information I gave and offered a common sense response -- which was completely off. I thought I was paying for a reading not a feeble minded nut to offer stupid quess work. By the end of the session, I felt robbed. This woman bragged to me, on my dime, that I am getting this for (the rate of session) as opposed ot the usual $1000 she charges people for these services. IN response to a statement that a man had sexually accosted me, I was told that I must be "putting out the energy" inviting him to molest me and I needed to rethink my energy output. Huh? She was basically blaming the victim for having been raped based upon your energy. "You must have had issues from childhood with men which attracted this man to violate you." She had no idea what she was talking about. This man also did the same to a lot of women in the area. DId they all have child hood issues too?How am I responsible for the behavior of other people? Gee you got hit by a car. YOu must have had a "run me over" energy field around you today. This woman was spouting off New Age nonsense she had read in some book and trying ot pass it off as wisdom and insight. I asked about a work concern and I was told "Ohhh, if you are uncomfortable, there must be a presence in the room. Someone died and is haunting the place." Her name is Wind-something. I could have gotten better advice from a drunken bum on the street. "Oh yes...I can feel the presence now. Someone died there." BS. No one died but her dead brain. After her rambling nonsense, she had the gall to tell me, "if you wish to continue, you will need to pay me more money or I will have to end here." I wanted my money back. I feel so screwed by PEB. She babbled about nothing throughout my entire session, could not answer a single question posed to her in any coherent, relevant fashion and then thanked me for giving her the business. Her responses were like those of a gypsy...not those I would have expected from the PEB. I do believe the PEB does hire good talent overall and the prices are reasonble. However, the aforementioned lady was not worth a penny -- in fact, she should have paid me for my time to listen to her BS. Yes, management is very unresponsive to concerns. They will deny their readers ever do anything wrong, provide poor service, etc. It'ds entire your fault if you stay on the line more than five minutes, beyond your refund deadline while the reader is chatting about his/her life, prattling about nonsense, instead of doing the job for which he/she was hired. THey will take your money and run. Their system is working as they are now opening a new store. Another reader there also screwed me over. This one found out what I did for a living and then asked me to help her (for free!!) I spent several hours helping her. She said she would read for me off hours as part of "payment"...and then when I called her. She wouldn't give me the time of day. She took my assistance and ran. She has also used up time during a reading to chat about her life and her career plans. When I have reined her in, telling her that I would like her to focus on my questions and reading instead of on herself while we are on the clock, she responds that I shouldn't worry as she will call me after hours to chat to make up for it. Of course the call never comes -- and I have essentially spent money to hear a reader promote herself and to hear herself talk. There is nothing I can do about this except to turn my back on PEB. Management doens't care. They are only concerned with making money. If you get screwed by a reader, well, they will tell you that all readers are independent contractors and if you don't like that one, call (ie, give them more money) to chat with someone else, but you will never see a refund. Some readers have wasted the time pitching services like their home healing remedies, etc. Ask about work or whatever and you will hear..."Oh...buy my green candles and you will see prosperity in your life. For $9.99 you can get a set of six..and here is my web site address." Why do we have to pay to hear advertisements. THe moment a company turns greedy, and resorts to such unscrupulous practices, then you know you are not dealing with an honest broker and wonder how else are they screwing you just to make more money -- like do they share info on clients to make themselves look legit? I swear sometimes they can't tell me a d**n thing beyond what I shared with them. They spout it back to me in some plausible way and then call that a reading. I feel robbed and that these readers have contempt for their clients. They treat us as free money as opposed to being grateful for our business. As for accuracy, some are good...but all in all...I can't tell you how many predictions have not come to fruition. I hate how these readers pretend to be your friend, make false promises, steal your money, and run. It's truly a disgrace. Ok, I can't get a refund, but I didn't spend that much. I just won't call again.
