Bad business :Shop got a better offer?

[craigntx]

Sunday a shop whom ive bought from b4 posts a milled Chinese mak90 for sale on facebook for $850. I im them. They call me and take my cc#
Tues I get a message some maggots tried to buy $1800 worth of obamphones. Sale was declined. I call to cancel the card and check transactions. The shop hadn't run the $850! What kinda business holds a cc# for that kinda money 2 days?
I call, no answer. Leave a message saying I have to change cards. That ones now cancelled. I I.m. The same message.
They say no problem. Will call Wednesday. Now it's Friday. Nothing.
I think they got a better offer.
I'm not gonna keep calling them. Now I see how much a proper stock costs ($300 unfinished) it won't kill me if I don't get it. I just don't like being strung along. We're it reversed they'd sell it out from under me in a heartbeat

It sounds like they weren't able to.

Doesn't do anybody else any good unless you post the name.

Surefire held my CC # for weeks while they figured out their backorder problem, only hit my card last week and I ordered way before Xmas

What happens if they charge your card then you had to wait several weeks for your items

They are not supposed to charge your card until the item ships

I placed an order for several dozen items from a vendor on November 4. Even though they showed in stock, they were out and placed on back-order. Now about half the items have arrived and they have only charged me immediately before shipping for each one.

I don't like being strung along, either, but there's a right way to do it and a wrong way to do it. The folks I ordered from aren't charging me for shipping, btw, since the original big order was supposed to be free shipping.

tl;dr - The way the OP got jerked around stinks. There are always unprofessional folks doing business out there but there are also good folks.

Ok they had told me will likely ship Tues.
I stayed in contact thru the attempted fraud.
I'm still thinking somebody offered more $

And meanwhile you are bad mouthing them on a wild guess that they got a better offer. Sheesh.

Last I checked bad mouthing would involve naming the company.
You're obviously an idiot troll

Have you seen their actual website or just what they have on FB?

I ask because most of FB is a joke.

I didn't look at their site. Being a used gun idk if it's be on there or not

Well at least they have a site, that is a good thing.

Many sellers on FB don't and it seems like a good way to scam people.
