Brand New Ipod Nano - for $200??? Fraud Alert on Michele Acton

$250 is the retail price for the Nano and thanx to Froogle and some other websearches I found a great deal at Micheles2Go/Seconds2Go4You.com which had the Nano for 200$ only.

Here is what happened

* Bought and paid for the Nano on Oct 9th 2005.

* I get an UPS Tracking code by Nov 1st (oh well they said it would take 2 wks to ship and it was a new product so I was patient enough). Even though that itself is a long wait!

* Till Nov 5th there was no update on UPS.Com on that tracking no. but then I have a tracking number

*  The tracking number doesnt track the package and it still is stationary at "Billing info received"

* Then on Nov 11th - I get an email from them (after several phonecalls and emails that went unresponsive) that "A pallet, with several hundred orders, had left our warehouse several
weeks ago and was shipped to a destination outside the U.S.  After investigating, we found that your order was in that shipment.We have been able to locate almost all the orders, however, your order is still missing.  This was an oversight on UPS and they are going out of their way to correct the problem."

* By then the website www.seconds2go4u.com" is no longer in service. The voicemail is "full" and cant take any more mssgs and there is no email responses (PANIC PANIC!!)

* Nov 16th I call UPS and say wassup, the response I get is "Maybe you have the wrong tracking ID - how about you have the shipper talk to us - we can start an investigation."

Ofcourse I called my credit card and started a dispute at this time and know things will be taken care of..

But Michele Acton, Kelly Acton who runs MichelestoGo have had this issue before - read these negative feedback from yahoo auctions. But seriously - Having a website say its no longer in service, and no response to phone and email - is just scary and downright unprofessional. Hence this mssg on FraudAlert on Michele Action an her Micheles2Go shopping site.
