express auto parts ripoff

I live in Indianapolis. I let the problem run too long, they wore me out chasing them, and the sixty day stop payment bit came into effect, so I then had no recourse. I think that's their plan, delay, delay, delay until the credit card company has no way of suing them for the refund, then they're in the clear. The phone contact number just sends you into yet another death spiral of voice mailboxes without a human in possible earshot. The actual company is in NY I think, I would dearly love to go there and throw a brick through their front window, bastards!

Just looking it up, they're actually listed as Exeter, PA. I don't think the comapny you speak of and this online only company are related somehow, but thanks anyway. I went to Ripoffreport.com and wrote an article about them there, and generally from time to time try to tell everyone about them.

Bummer. I myself have not had to do the reverse charging thing, but have talked to a couple of people who have. It gets the attention of the merchant REAL FAST. I think not just for the amount in question, but their staying on the good graces of Visa or whomever.

Looking up !NET-69-20-77-112-1 at whois.arin.net. NOTE: More information appears to be available at IPADM17-ARIN.

Gee, a ton of info to try to screw my money out of those bastards! Thanks!

Exeter, Pa is where Keystone Auto Parts and A&A are:

The former Joe Amato companies, which he sold off several years ago, they must be a subsidiary of Key or Keystone Auto Parts.

Sounds like something they'd do, A&A gives lifetime warranties on their parts, and when something is defective. Viola, no warranty parts for you!

Too many charge backs:

Raises your rate up to a certain amount in retail. Then after another specified amount in your contract, closes your account.

Then you are blacklisted with all the merchant companies. So you are in essence out of business.

As soon as you suspect you've been taken advantage of, exercise your right of a chargeback. Don't be shy, it's your money. You can negotiate a fair settlement after "YOU" are satisfied.

You are the customer, it's about time someone treats the customer right!

I have now, thanks to the helpful person who did the lookup on whois.arin, snail mailed the company address listed in NY. Hopefully that will get some answers, or even money back!

If all else fails:

Complain to the:

Post Master General United States Postal Service In that NYC Zip

Mail fraud once they used the US Mail baby, heads will roll!

PS Don't get mad, get EVEN!

Unfortunately, your fraud complaint to the USPS will just go into a file. When the file gets big enough(with complaints from others), they may or may not look into it. That's basically what I was told when I filed a complaint against an eBayer that cashed my postal money order but didn't send the item. H

That sucks!

Our overpaid and underworked postal workers refused to investigate?

Call your local Senator, usually, a call from a Senator's office makes a wheel squeak, and it gets greased rather quickly!

I hope your crooked E-Bayer gets to become the cell block's woman! I hate crooks!
