Here's the story:
-I paid Jeff Bettis to make a display case for me in late October. My payment of $120.00 was sent on October 23.
-On November 5, I contacted him to get an update on the status and he told me that it was almost done.
-When I did not hear anything from him about the completion of the project, I e-mailed again on November 13. At that time he responded that he had not finished the case.
-After almost 10 days, I still did not get any confirmation that the case was completed and shipped.
I sent e-mails on November 21, 26 and 28.
-He finally responded on November 28 stating that the package was returned to him marked "Unable To Be Shipped" and he requested my address. I sent him my address in 3 different e-mails on November 28th, December 1 and December 5 and requested in all three e-mails that he send me a tracking number once the package was sent. Mr. Bettis did not respond to any of those e-mails.
-The final communication from JSS was on December 11 after he saw that I filed a Paypal claim against him. He assured me that the case was on the way via USPS Priority Mail but failed to provide me with a tracking number even though I asked several times. Here it is January 1, still no case, e-mail or refund. Paypal failed to recover the funds for me (no big surprise) so JSS ripped me off for $120.
In this case, Jeffrey Bettis:
1. Rarely responded to e-mails
2. Never told me when the case supposedly shipped the first time
3. He pulled the oldest line in the book saying that the package was returned and he needed my correct address
4. Failed to provide a tracking number even though I requested it several times
5. Has yet to respond to 3 e-mails since the package was supposedly shipped a second time.
I have saved all of my communcations with JediSaberSmith. I have tried to e-mail him through his website as well. Still....no response.
I would like to get my money back from Jeff. I don't even want the case anymore after all this nonsense. My intention on posting in the forum is to let people know what they will be dealing with if they order from him. I also want to get his attention to hopefully have him do the right thing and refund my money. This problem can be very easily resolved.
If anyone has issue with this post or would like more details, please let me know.
-Keith
