Scam Description

Buyers beware!!!!
REJOICINGWELL….
Rec’d email on PC, closing store soon, can’t afford business rent.
Last day 49% off birds stain window panel. Looked great! Ordered small set and two days later informed shipped. Supplied tracking number. After a week I looked up shipping progress and stated in Ireland Customs. A week later still in same location. Contacted vendor and a day later they gave me an update. Now shipping out of China. Informed vendor I did not want the item from China. No response, received item 5 days later from California.
They are scammers. Yes, the have products, but not made in USA(sorry-made in China) as stated. They actually faked shipping out of England/Ireland when it came from China. I purchased Stain Glass hanging birds and it was manufactured plastic. The would not honor a request for refund.. Reason: ‘we don’t issue refunds because you don’t like it’.
