Price Cheaters should be called people cheaters

this website advertised an MP3 player that resembled an ipod with virtually the same functions for a fraction of the cost. After reading the good reviews from others who ordered this product I went ahead I placed an order for two MP3 players on Dec. 17th. Once my order was placed my debit card was charged and I reeived a notice it was on backorder with no date as to when it may be shipped. I have posted several messages on their site and sent several email inquiring as to when I may expect shipment with no response. I have no way of reaching this company other than the emails and now I feel I may not be able to get my money back. This is bad business and I don't believe they are legit. I think their name price cheaters should be changed to people cheaters because they cheat people out of their money!

This is a bad news company, processing the charges without emailing problems in fullfilling the order. Free services were also charged to my credit card, services that were not requested. Price Cheater did nothing to help recoup that money.

I had the same problem I ordered two mp3 players that said they were a 70 dollar value for christams presents they were so cheap they were like doll toys when I tried to return them I was informed that I would have to pay the return shipping and a 15% restocking fee becuase the boxes were opened when the boxes were openend when I recieved them I have sent numerous emails to the company with no response. THIS COMPANY IS A SCAM.

I think Price Cheater might be at it again. I ordered an XBox 360 4GB Game Console with Kinect Bundle, a sweet deal at $269 and $3.99 shipping. My receipt says they will ship in 3-5 business days, good thing I printed that receipt because since the order was placed 11/25/2010 I have not received one email from them!! I have emailed multiple times to see what is going on because the 'order status' says "to be processed." This is totally unacceptable. And my credit card was charged the same day! I want the XBox, but am I ever going to get it? So I called Bridgevine, the lady said she would contact Price Cheater and I should hear from someone in 3-5 buisness days. Really? Because I wanted the console on the 7th for my husband's birthday, so you are going to make me wait even longer for a courtesy phone call to tell me what the heck is going on? Ridiculous. Just overnight me what I paid for so I don't have to bury you with the power of three - I tell 3 friends not to buy from you, they tell 3 friends, and they all tell 3 friends. Then, you have no more Price Cheater to people cheat!

I had a problem with non-delivery of a DVD player. After reading all the comments, I went to the business reply and contacted Mr. Ballard. I received an email from him, with a followup email directly from the person in charge at PriceCheaters. She informed me that a refund of all money paid from my account was in process. And I received the money in my account very shortly thereafter.

I agree that this company is cheating. I ordered a DVD player on Jan. 28, 2010. It still has not arrived and no reply to the two regular emails I have sent them. The one I sent via their we site was returned as undeliverable.

Of course, my bank was charged immediately!

There is also the problem that I have been enroled in some Blockbuster membership, which I have no way of cancelling! I am reporting this company to the Better Business Bureau.

I ordered 2 of the MP3 players...what a piece of crap they are!!! But regardless I only recieved 1 of the 2 I ordered.I have sent numerous emails only to have them all returned...WHAT A HUGE RIP OF THIS COMPANY TURNED OUT TO BE. I bought things to raffle off for a fund raiser for the Crohns & Colitis Foundation of America. and I have lost money on them as not only did I only get 1 of 2 ordered but they look like toys!!

The Lacie hard drives were held up in customs for a troubling length of time. If for some reason you did not receive your MP3s please email me and I'll get this resolved ASAP.

We had some problems with our supplier and we were not able to ship the MP3 players in a timely manner, and we apologize for that. If for some reason you did not receive your MP3s please email me and I'll get this resolved ASAP.

Same thing happened to us. Money was taken from our account same day as ordered. We never received MP3 Player. I emailed them about a half a dozen times inquiring about the shipment status or any info for that matter. No one ever responded. We did, however, just get a refund for the amount that was taken from the account.

I just contacted someone at 1-866-299-1833 (Bridgevine) states refund was issued for all mp3 players ordered for xmas by this company on 1-23-09. So check your checking account for refund if not call the numer given. Mine was refunded.

Exactly the same happened to me on december 15th. My credit card was charged the same day I placed the order but apart from an order acknowledgement I never received the goods or any info telling me if it shipped or was on back order.

I too believe it's a scam and I called the number showing on my credit card statement. Instead of Pricecheater.com it shows up as "broadband" and their tel # 888 375 4610. I'm now waiting for them to call back to confirm that the order has been cancelled and the refund is being sent. I suggest you call that number too.
