CC companies charge so much in interest to customers who carry balances on their cards that they have quite a pool of money to absorb losses.

yeah, hard to shed a tear for the CC crooks who are in the business of usury.

LOL. Your reasoning and mine are polar opposite. So you believe that it's okay for someone to make a sketchy purchase for the sole reason that the CC company will take the hit for them?

Oh, and your reasoning is simply because they can afford it. SMH

LOL. How could I have known it was a "sketchy" purchase?
I received 3 attachments in the time that was predicted.
My belief at the time was EA was ordering material in bulk as they received enough orders.
The FACT remains I have 3 quality attachments.
Hindsight is always 20/20. Don't be an ignoramus.

So, the credit card companies “eating” others mistakes/issues is a real long term solution?

Long term solution? EA is out of business.
But I would think most of us use our credit card for the protection it offers.

Most people use a CC because they don't have the money to buy what they are purchasing. Otherwise CC companies wouldn't be in business. I'm pretty sure I haven't made an ignorant statement about EA or Ted. You on the other hand totally miss the point of the conversation. When you bought something from Ted, you let him use your money from the time of purchase until the order showed up. That's a sketchy business. Those types of Ponzi schemes don't last. Ignoramus? Who is the ignoramus? You're very lucky you didn't get bagged by Ted. Enjoy your EA implements. I hope you don't need a part.

You sound like my wife. Your memory becomes very short when you are trying to ignore facts or reasoning and then make outlandish claims.

It was not a sketchy purchase when I bought the implements. So your second point of "sole reason that the CC company will take the hit for them" is irrelevant.

I don't have facts to back up your claim about "most people use a CC because they don't have the money to buy what they are purchasing".

I personally use a CC because I get cash back and it protects me from frauds and thieves. In 40 years I have NEVER owed on a credit card.

But here are FACTS why you should use a credit card for the majority of your purchases.

It was a sketchy purchase. Just because you didn't get bagged doesn't change the fact that you got taken advantage of by loaning Ted money and could have just as easily been a victim. You make a stupid purchase based on the premise that the CC company will refund your money if you get screwed. Why don't you ask the opinion of some of the guys that did. I honestly think if he got that business up and running again you would buy something else from him.

Why is this discussion happening? People buy things because they believe the company is honest and has what they want. Sometimes the company is dishonest and people get burned. No reason to blame the customer. I bought a Fred Cain plow from EA and received it promptly within 2 weeks. They didn’t build the implement, just acted as the middleman. Based on that experience, I would have bought another implement from the company if I was in the market at the time. I looked at their rear blade, but ended up buying cash and carry from a local dealer. No reason to blame the customers for getting burned.

Yep. You respond just like my wife would.

Congrats! You just made my Ignore list!

According to workinonit the people who bought from EA were just too stupid and used a credit card to bail them out because of their stupid purchase. Of course the people who bought from EA would just buy something from Ted again.

I love this forum!
