Yipes ... once again, actually twice again I have been bamboozled. Won a leather chair then got…read moreinto a bidding war for the one ottoman that went with it (paid more for the ottoman than the chair, ugh) only to find that the chair wasn't the leather chair as advertised, but the linen version which I didn't want (and the ottoman to which I also didn't bid on) so I'm left with a mismatched set, $760. I left it at the warehouse and am hoping they refund me for their mistake at best, false advertising/fraud at worst.
Again .. only buy what you SEE PHOTOGRAPHED because they don't check inside the boxes, and they tend to err on the side of 'more valuable.'
My other issue was late last month, I won an 'appears new, overstock item, never sold' Christmas tree, only to get it home to find one giant section missing and no base. (also, clearly a customer return because it still had the guy's return address on the box) No biggie, $15 and a Saturday of driving. I bid on the same tree a few weeks later and got it for $20, and between the two of them, I Frankensteined together a reasonable tree.
I never complained about the tree, but I've written to customer service about the wrong chair, which I left at the warehouse and I hope someone figures out quick enough to offer it as a 2nd chance to the people I was bidding against ... and give me my money back.
