Status of Everything Attachments

Yea dude, I hate to break it to you,...

I hate to break this to you. But I am well aware of how it works. I also know of e-merchants that like making up shipping labels so that they can get paid even though they ship whenever they feel like it (if at all). Sounds like you are in this camp.

Pretty much without credit card purchase protection The internet businesses would cease to exist. Too many unethical people.

nothing you wrote indicates you understand at all how it works. if you think the sellers are the scammers OMG, you really haven't been on the other side to see the sh*t buyers pull....

So many people can't handle money. EA had (had) a great reputation and by order history would know how many to have on hand for each attachment. Online or phone order, ship and manufacturer another. Going in debt usually is the death spiral.

Yea dude, I hate to break it to you, but Amazon charges the full amount to your card seconds after you make the purchase. they then put a hold for a minimum of 30 minutes (I have seen literal days) before they will even release it to me to ship. They do this to verify scammers and that you have the funds. just because it hasn't shown up on your credit as a full charge yet, means literally nothing. I just have to generate a tracking number and its fully released.

on my website, I have no requirement to ship anything. the minute it processes its fully charged.

it has and always will be a 100% upfront paid before delivery model. This is how every single ecommerce site works, I am on almost all of them.

and wr long was a 2month wait, luckily who i bought it through paid that upfront for me prior to delivery.

people blow my mind sometimes.if you think people can just charge something and never ship a product, clearly don't understand how payment processors work. you can only do that so many times before the processor will simply drop you.

Please let us know what your e-commerce company is so I can avoid doing business with you. It is unconscionable to try to condone EA's business model in the last year or so, and says more about the one defending the practice than I think is wise to reveal.

1. They were taking payment for months for products they knew they wouldn't deliver
2. They were taking payments without the steel inventory to cover them.
3. They were taking orders after have laid off a portion of their employees.
4. They were using manufacturing resources for personal projects.
5. The allegedly took construction funds to pay vendors and creditors.

Nothing you reply shows anything but a disdain for people you want to buy from you exists. Mine at least segregates merchants that try the old shipping label trick as scammers.

Where did I say any of that? that is so far out of left field I don't even understand where your coming from.

I indicated that ecommerce requires payment before shipping and that it was standard practice, backing up the other ecommerce guy. That was literally the extent of my comment. NO where did I speak to EA or their own practices.

Please stop trying to read between lines that don't exist...

I will end with this comment, clearly you have been burned in the past. Sorry that happened, but any real business owner knows the damage a single customer can do to a business. No reputable company is going to scam anyone, with the possibility of a credit card chargeback, the risk is still very high to the business owner, not the buyer, the risk ratio is so out of whack to do that it doesn't even remotely make sense to scam someone.

if your not doing your due diligence vetting the sites your buying from when the item is 40% lower than any other site, sorry that's on you.

Respect is a 2 way street.

Yes. Instead of a $6M steel & glass lake house have half that in attachment steel, paint, supplies and $1M lake house (not me...but example). Certainly you want to feed your goose laying golden eggs not starve it. Other attachments I've bought I received within a week or two. People order attachments because they're needed now...not in six months.
