The Wholesale Forums

[CDavis78]

Hi all

I'm new to this thread and so far it looks like a wondeful forum to be a part of! Everyone is SO helpful to everyone else! So, here is my bit of advice too...

I recently made contact with "Designer Connect" through EC Plaza. I placed my first order through their website, www.designerfashions.weblodge.net I ordered over $1500.00 worth of designer jeans. I was told that all the jeans are authentic and include all necessary paperwork. I was also promised that my order would arrive within 5 days of payment.

So, I make the payment through Western Union as instructed. After a week, I email them asking for a tracking number. She emails me back to say my items are stuck in customs but has ignored my multiple requests for a tracking number. First of all, if you KNOW where an item is (stuck in customs), wouldn't you need a tracking number to get that info? Secondly, why is it stuck in customs if it is all legit?!

Has anyone else dealt with this company? I'm starting to lose all sight of any hopes that I'll get either a refund or the goods

Thanks everyone!

Well, I hope I'm wrong but I doubt you're going to get your order. First of all - NEVER EVER pay by Western Union! Secondly, if they can't even be bothered to register for a domain name and decent hosting then they obviously don't care about their business.

Thank you for showing me the thread on the other forum. It seems that they also have a NY address so at least now I have a US based company to file complaints against. I highly doubt it will do any good either **sigh** But, I'll keep trying - hopefully I can get their website shut down so this does not happen to anyone else!!

I'm not sure if they do have a US addy.
Someone else was trying to draw a connection between the two companies Designer Wholesalers
and Designer Fashions but I don't get it. I don't see how they're related (except that they're
both selling fakes!)

Oh.. well... I included the NY address on my complaints
Maybe they are ... I'll go check 'em out again and see if they're selling the same stuff. Their websites look a lot alike but that could just be because they are both hosted by weblodge.net (which I've also got involved now! )

hi there,i also had a problem with a company called cndepot,they said there polo shirts were authentic but were aimed for the us market so i thought well thats ok and the price tags had 75$ each on them,so i thought no more and placed my order,i also payed by western union which i know advise all people to please not use,anyway i never got a tracking number after 2weeks of asking for one,finally after 3 weeks i recieved a letter from customs and excise saying my goods were kept in customs and basically will be destroyed because goods were fake,that left me £375 out of pocket and couldnt not claim my mo western union has they do not take responsibility,company ignored by mails for 4 weeks then got backsaying wasnt there problem,that it was mine and should of checked customs procedures before ordering,how ever change because i didnt think you had to ask customs for goods supposidly authentic,i urge all buyers to buy within the united kingdom,and please beaware most genuine wholesalers will let you go for a private viewing of goods,i learnt my lesson the hard way but thankfully know everything is great
all the best peeps ney back through
