#233039 IMTopGun1 (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 1914 BEWARE of Helmets Etc., Inc. - RIPOFFS 2 Years, 3 Months ago   BEWARE of Helmets Etc., Inc (http://www.helmetsetc.com/) !!! They are RIPOFFS. I ordered a couple of helmets, kept one and returned the other for an exchange and was told that that item was out of stock. They said it would be a few weeks before they received the stock. Two months later, they refuse to respond and/or acknowledge any (often repeated) email correspondence whatsoever. I was polite the first several emails and requested a complete refund after a few. They I told them I was going to tell the world if they didn't respond and refund my money. So, it looks like they STOLE my cash! STAY AWAY FROM THEM AND TELL EVERYONE YOU KNOW TO DO THE SAME! THEY ARE THIEVES!!!   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #233042 davej (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 3884 Re:BEWARE of Helmets Etc., Inc. - RIPOFFS 2 Years, 3 Months ago   If you paid thru paypal see if you can make a claim thru them.   Logged     dave   The administrator has disabled public write access. #233046 Jon D (User) Junior Boarder Posts: 175 Re:BEWARE of Helmets Etc., Inc. - RIPOFFS 2 Years, 3 Months ago   I think paypal only covers claims that are from ebay   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #233053 Curt (Moderator) Never to old to ride!

If they don't give you a satisfactory solution then let them know you are you intend to contact the Federal Trade Commission and the Better Business Burrow.   Logged     My Site Black Ice is Shiny, Black Ice is Deadly, Ya Wanna Ride My BlackIce?   The administrator has disabled public write access. #233070 IMTopGun1 (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 1914 Re:BEWARE of Helmets Etc., Inc. - RIPOFFS 2 Years, 3 Months ago   That would work if they supplied a legitimate phone #. (DO NOT CALL THIS BOGUS @ 1-800-940-7414) Instead, should you just so happen to stumble across the toll free number on the credit card example , and I seriously urge everyone NOT to try this, you get transferred to a telephone look-up service that automatically enrolls you for $9.99/month. And the more you attempt to respond STOP to cancel, they just keep texting you back. (http://www.smsvw.com/).

Layton City FD Junior Boarder Posts: 112 Re:BEWARE of Helmets Etc., Inc. - RIPOFFS 2 Years, 3 Months ago   I ordered a helmet from Leatherisbetter.com back in june. After 3 1/2 mo and about 30 phone calls and the same amount of e-mails, which lead no where but "the warehouse said they shipped it two times." During the 3 1/2 mo I contacted the BBB and tried to get them to work it out with the owner. It didnt help, I ended up canceling my order and ordering one off amazon. I let Leatherisbetter know I was canceling and wanted a refund, amazon had the same helmet delivered to me before leatherisbetter had given me my refund back. I advise everyone to stay away from Leatherisbetter.com. They are horrible with customer care and satisifaction.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #233085 kryinggame (User) Gold Boarder Posts: 742 Re:BEWARE of Helmets Etc., Inc. - RIPOFFS 2 Years, 3 Months ago   Gentlemen, as an attorney, my advice is this, there's no such thing as a good thing. Now that we're in the internet error, people have more options as to where they purchase and naturally, we all look for the most reasonable seller. Beware of any seller that's making an offer that's to good to be true. Check and verify that it's a legit business. Call them up and chat with them before making a purchase. But ultimately, you may want to get a referral prior to making a purchase. I'm sorry that you gentlemen were caught in these scams.   Logged     31 Tooth Pulley; Dyna 3000; BAK; Ported Manifold; Raked Triple Tree; BMS Pimp Bar; Headwinds 5 3/4 lamp; PIAA Xtreme White Bulb; Chrome Grips; Braided cables; Chrome longboards w/extended floor board extensions; side mount license plate holder; custom fender; LA Chopper pipes; Looneys Custom seat; progressive rear springs; custom turn signals.   The administrator has disabled public write access. #233106 moreland4 (User) Chrome ain't for sissies Gold Boarder Posts: 838 Re:BEWARE of Helmets Etc., Inc. - RIPOFFS 2 Years, 3 Months ago   While we're on this topic, here's another company to watch out for: Lido Mounts. Lido Mounts sells GPS mounts for various applications. First order went through fine. Second order...no so much. Credit card was charged and still no product (ordered on 07/28/2009). Rep e-mailed me in August saying they recieved my order but a shipping label was never printed but they would ship immediately (that was 08/19/2009). Now, no one answers calls or replies to e-mails. I referred them after my first order, now I am WARNING you after my second. Looks like they went out of business or my $50 set them up for retirement.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #233112 VikingWarhorse (User) American by birth-Viking by blood Gold Boarder Posts: 853 Re:BEWARE of Helmets Etc., Inc. - RIPOFFS 2 Years, 3 Months ago   And this is why I dont buy stuff online   Logged     www.vikingwarhorse.webs.com -New trip story and pix 1/30/2010 THE HIGH COST OF LIVING AINT NOTHING LIKE THE COST OF LIVING HIGH   The administrator has disabled public write access. #233114 Transam1 (User) Gold Boarder Posts: 649 Re:BEWARE of Helmets Etc., Inc. - RIPOFFS 2 Years, 3 Months ago   Administrator, Would it be possible to set up a section here that would list both bad and good vendor experiences ? I know at the Vxam forum they have a section and it saved a bunch of us from burning some green. Thanks, Chris   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access.
