Tell us has your experience with this business or person been good? What's this?
I had purchased 12 Disposable Wedding Cameras from ebay on October 18th, 2003.

Everything went smooth with the transaction. I wanted to purchase these cameras in advance because I know there were more expenses coming up later once we got closer to our Wedding day. Our Wedding was May 30th 2004. When I was ready to bring the Cameras in for development I noticed that one camera had the outside packaging missing and was damaged.

I first thought that one of our Guests had left the disposable camera there, but then I noticed that this camera looked like it could have had the Wedding packaging around it. I opened one that still had the packaging around it and I saw that it looked the same way once I opened it. I opened all of them and they looked the same!

Description of the camera's:

After the wedding packaging was removed, it was evident that the cameras were tampered with. The front right corner was sawed off (cut off), in the back where the film goes there is black tape over the opening and the film was not a Kodak film but a Konica film. The Description on the Auction very clearly said Kodak 27 exposures, but these say 24.

I was very upset, because we had placed cameras on each table and people were taken pictures. I have to say that I was emotionally disturbed by it! I have not gotten the films developed. I immediately went to ebay and looked up the seller's feedback and noticed that he had pulled this before. He had several people complaining about his cameras and how fraudulent it was for misrepresenting the product. I did look at his feedback in October of 2003, but did not notice any of these negative feedback.

I did file a dispute with Square Trade on June 3rd 2004, and reported this person to the IFCC on June 7th, 2004, but as of today they were not able to get any answer back from the seller. He also has a website: www.thesavingsmall.com that he advertises on ebay and I found out through WhoIs under what name the website is registered. The person also changed his ebay name several times, because of obvious reasons. Here are the following names that he had used on e-bay:

User ID Effective End Date

Savings_mall sep-25-03 Present

hotdeals_4u2 dec-19-02 sep-25-03

davidgraphics may-21-01 dec-19-02

Unfortunately I can not see what the feedback was for the other two names, but gather that all feedback is collected under the last used name.

Consumer be aware of this company or person. Brides...don't get ripped off.

Mr. Klein has refunded me my Money and I want everyone to know that he is a reputable person. He himself was ripped off and is hopefully taking action. >>>>>>>> You can trust him!<<<<<<<<<<<< Unfortunately I cannot take the name off the Report, I have e-mailed this Website to do so, and I am waiting for a response from the Website Administrator and Support Group. Once again, thank you David Klein for refunding my money. I hope you resolve the problem on your end.

Please send me your paypal email address so I can send you a full refund right away. I hope you will remove the name and address that you put on your report, we never had anything to do with it! P.S. You can also see in the ebay feedback that 97% of consumers were satisfied (we are not dening the ones that were not) Thank You

It seems that I am dealing with two differed people here. Once I have been refunded the $49.43, I will only then take the name of the Report. What you describing is all well and good, but this is not my problem this is your internal issue you will have to deal with.

The thing that happened was, we buy from a few different places our cameras in bulk. One of our sellers was not honest with us and sold us bad products. We are working to get back our $ and refunding the consumers. Believe me it is a big headache for us and a good lesson to check out what we buy before we resell it! We apologize again and we are working on the issue! I WOULD LIKE TO REQUEST FROM THE PERSON WHO LEFT THE REPORT TO PLEASE REMOVE THE NAME AND ADDRESS THEY PUT ON THE REPORT, THIS PERSON HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE CAMERAS!!! OUR COMPANY IS LOCATED AT 1303-50 STREET NOT THAT ADDRESS!

If you where an honorable Business Man, with a business sense, you should know not to even trust your best friends with Money or your Business name. Because of that statement I just made, I have my doubts that you are telling the truth. The bad business dealing had been going on since the end of 2003 and I guess I was the only person who did not keep quite. I reported you and the only thing you have to comment on is, that it wasn't you who owns the business on your website and on e-bay? And if your statement >>>>>Every person ripped off will be refunded<<<<< is true then why haven't you contacted me? You were reported to Square Trade, IFCC and ebay, those companies do have my contact information and you had over a month to get in contact with me and refund my $49.43, but have not done so. Therefore I do not believe that you are a reputable Person or run a reputable business.
