I've been dealing with these guys for for the past 6 years and I know exactly why these things happened... About a year ago (when most of these messages were posted), PayPal did not forward several customer order and payments to BS Covers, as they were supposed to. They tried to explain this to a couple of customers, who contacted PayPal. Of course, PayPal didn't admit any guilt in the matter, making it appear to be BS Covers' fault. The customers kept emailing them over and over. So, it was necessary for them to ignore many of these messages and let the customers work things out with PayPal... The one's who actually had their money. Of course, BS Covers got a bad rap from this incident. But, this was when they told PayPal to f*ck off and set up credit card processing through First Data (formerly Cardservice International... one of the most reputable credit card processing companies in the country). That's why they accepted PayPal on their website one day and didn't the next and also why they were briefly unable to sell items on eBay. Since then, they have also told eBay to f*ck off because of their relationship with PayPal, which should get eBay sued by the government under federal anti-trust laws. Like I said... I have been a customer of BS Covers (
www.bscovers.com) for 6 years and they always deliver a great product at a great price. So, instead of showing your ignorance and trashing a good company, you should trash eBay and PayPal... Do a search on them and see how many people they have screwed. Before they closed their eBay Store, BS Covers had like 3000 positive feedbacks.... That's 3000 happy customers... You don't get that by screwing people over!
Welcome to TheFret, and thanks for the link to the site.
I believe the company may have been better off had they not ignored the customer messages and let the customers work things out with paypal. It might have boosted confidence, or at least given the customers a heads up about what was going on.
In any event, it's not the first incident I've heard about with ebay/paypal...
