Good Afternoon NoName,
Thank you for the kind words about my post. No, they never respond to anyone's email that I'm aware of. So, for those of you that have never done business with these guys but are considering it, please be aware of this fact before pushing the order button with these guys. I don't like it, but have accepted it and will continue to accept it as long as they are providing reasonbly quaility products at decent prices with prompt shipping. Now about your $20.00 overcharge, their order form has been improved greatly from the time I placed my first order with them. Now, before you hit the submit order button, you get to see your true actual charges including the "donation" and "handling" charges before you hit submit. Did you happen to check the math before hitting submit? Was it correct? I assume you did check and it was correct, but then somehow your card was charged an extra $20.00? I always go online within seconds after placing my order to check my card balance to verify and see that the charge is correct. Since dealing with these guys via email is not an option, I would first contact my card company and simply advise them of the $20.00 overcharge and make them aware of the fact that you have attempted contact with the merchant with no response. Depending on your history and relationship with your card company, they may be willing to correct the issue and simply refund the $20.00 back to your card. Otherwise, as you said, you should just move on. However, if you do order from them again, just make it a very small order, $50 or $75 or so, and include a note somewhere on the orderform below where your name and address goes telling them in just a few words about the $20 overcharge.
One last comment I will make to any one cosidering doing business with these guys. Please be advised that they have extra "donation" and "handling" charges added to each order which you will clearly be able to see before hitting the submit order button. So, please don't blame or be upset with the company for something that you agree to in advance. My own point of view is that no one is holding a gun to my head forcing me to do business with these guys. I have been treated much worse and much better by other companies. It is what it is! And as far as the $37.00 shipping charges go, $37.00 is really not bad at all for international shipping in the time frame that they ship. I use to deal with one other overseas vendor that is now gone who would be willing to get your order to you within three to five days, however his shipping charge was $65.00. I have paid up to $35.00 for standard shipping within the US. So, trust me $37.00 is not that real bad.
I'm sorry that I was not able to offer any other advice or assistance and hope my comments may help others in the future thinking about doing business with these folks.
Take care.
