Don't buy I Renew

purgoose10 · Jan 22, 2011

I hope no one here fell for the I Renew bracelet as I have. Yes I did and I'm just a gullible C/V guy.

Anyway ordered 1 got 2 and they charged me 39.98 for the two and got them in a small envelope PARCEL POST FOR ANOTHER $36.75.

Anyway don't buy it, it's a Rip Off.

Can you return them, or will that cost you again?

They say you can but you cannot get shipping and handling. So by the time you send it with shipping and stuff you won't get back but $20. They are a peace of work. National advertising and all. Rip offs are getting bigger and bigger.

Those adverts always make me wonder .... if their product is so good ...why can't you buy it in a shop?

Most of them you can. We have a store in our malls called the "As Seen on TV" store.

Just checked for our closest store - Charlotte NC

About a 330 mile round trip to be ripped off - think I'll pass

I'm usually more cautious but I guess I hit my week moment. Making decisions in the business is also difficult. Been running on my own hauling for a company that's now going overseas. I am finding it very difficult to find a company to contract to. I want a small company with no satellites and I don't want to go to Canada. Also live in SC so find one that goes through there once in awhile. Decisions decisions decisions, Hmmmmm! Not many of those companies left.

I trying to figure out how this is a political or soap box subject.

It has to do with the politics of buying worthless crap.

Got it.

Hey maybe I should market my gas saving device, guaranteed to have you spend 350 bucks so you don't have to spend that 350 on gas. Works every time and installs in seconds.

Postage and handling is $27.50

Don't forget the "But Wait" factor.

well I was going to say that but the product that I planned on throwing into the sale won't be ready until after Easter, the dual purpose wheel chock and table centerpiece by the artist Moot. That too can save a lot of fuel by putting in front of any tire to prevent you from moving and when not driving, makes a wonderful centerpiece for those special dinners.

I'll take two.

Purgoose... have you considered C&M out of Painesville, OH? No Canada, no QC, no Hazmat, and SC is a hotspot for them. Depending what you're driving, they might not be taking solo straights right now. But I'd call to make sure.

P.T. Barnum was right.

I'll check them out. Thanks.
Oh yes I want one of those fuel savings deals. Just charge it.

That's the latest scam. Call now and we'll send you not one but two... just pay separate shipping and handling. They charge you enough s/h for about two dozen units not two.
