Scam Description
I was specifically looking for Bowflex 552 dumbbells. When you search online sales there are some very obvious fake sales; however, mygymusa was very deceitful but seemed to be completely above bird with a whole website and lots of products. The price seemed to good to be true and turns out it was. First, it is not Bowflex. While it doesn’t say it is there dumbbells it on Bowflex 552 search at top and picture is identical (minus name) of Bowflex. Second, I specifically searched for a set (pair) as many that were cheaper were single. Many made that very clear. This website however gave a price and the product said it was a set. After fact near the end of description it does say box will contain only one dumbbell. Why advertise for a pair and then say product would not contain a pair. Final thing is the return policy. They advertised with streamer that they I’ve a hassle free 30 day return policy. I tried to return within days and they wanted to know why. When I explained I had been deceived and accept some responsibility but would just prefer to return it as I don’t really trust them, they advised the best they could do is a 15% refund. This is clearly a scam.
