  • Last week I placed an order and paid using PayPal, the order never returned to the order page to complete the transaction. The address on the resulting invoice ends in <removed>. Have emailed the seller several times, no response.  I am concerned that this is a scam.

Consider it a loss with PayPal. When the company receives the dispute and then they provide a tracking number and delivery date, PayPal is on their side and your dispute case is closed. I had a $175 loss and a hard lesson learned. I do not use PayPal at all any longer due to the tactics.

I provided PayPal all the details about the purchase, UPS details and the bogus website. PayPal sided in my favor and has provided a full refund.

 

My next step is to shut down https://www.decorsday.com/ for good. I know another false front site will get setup in its place, but it sends a message to the Chinese scammers that we will not be taken advantage.

I paid this company $79.98 for two outside Christmas balls. I received two blow-up balls. They were advertised as plastic, with lights inside. I tried to call their number[Removed. Phone #s not permitted]but it was disconnected. Do you have any other information, I would like to return them and get a refund?

They are a scam. I ordered 3 Ruth Bader Ginsburg Menorahs in November. They finally arrived 3 months later and were damaged! One totally broken, one had blue dye all over her face, and all three missing parts!!

I contacted the company and started emails, 13 in total and they refused to refund, or even accept my sending them back. I sent photos. I finally disputed with my  credit card company which refunded, then re charged then refunded for good!

 

They are a scam, they advertised on the website, Warmrain.net. I saw it on Facebook. It definitely comes from China. The address in the U.S. was attached to a Coruscant.

I just want more people to know this and not order anything from them.
