Good luck Scott,
Empire pets, ebaeseller are one in the same and they suck, beonde suck. I
did a buy it now on a overflow hose. Their auction says lightening fast
shipping. I paid on the 28th and my order was shipped on the 7th and I
received the wrong order on the 10th.
I opened the box and I had hand held disco lights.So I E-mailed them,6
times on the various addys they have with no response. I finally called tham
and they told me that they were too busy to work on my order at this time.
Bad- Stay away. . Brian

Has anyone ever purchased from Empire pets? They're located in Marietta,
Ga. I ordered some stuff on the 1st, they hit my card, and I haven't
heard a thing since. My account says it's still processing. They haven't
answered any e-mails and forget calling. The old saying applies, if it
quacks like a duck...etc. If they actually come through I'll let you know
but I'm not holding my breath.

I just had the same exact problem with ebaeseller during the same time
period. Paid on 28th and didn't ship until 8th! Not too big of a deal, but
when they don't answer emails it makes you nervous. I'll never buy from
ebaeseller again. Oh and you can throw auction-partner in the same mix.
This was the worst transaction ever. They kept me hanging on just long
enough till I couldn't do anything about it through safe harbor.


I paid $210 just to leave a negative (worthless pile of junk still sitting
in my basement) and then those *&*^%$%%%^ try to get my feedback removed.
I quickly responded and once again they never respond to me or square trade!

..On the flip side.. I just bought a fluval 304 for only 40 bucks brand new
and a prizm skimmer (returned my seaclone) for only 31 bucks! Great deals
out there, but you have to work hard to get them. Too many scammers!

pipe.

I finally received an E-mail from Scott explaining the situation and I have
to say I understand. I am in process of returning the disco lights to
receive the overflow tube. I do not agree with the treatment I got or the
rudeness from them but at least they are going to make good on getting me
the correct product.
