So i got a cataglog, saying pre approved for $400. Cool, ok, so I joined FingerHut turned around & was only approved for 280. Errr, but ok. I looked on line & saw a few things I wanted to buy as Christmas presents. Put in my order, then I'm told, I have to pay $30 dollar deposit first. Ok, Wait a week to get paid, pay the $30. shipping notes say, order by the 14th to have delivery by Christmas with standard mail. Ok. Place my order on 12/5. Then I get an email that says my payment has to clear, SOON as it clears my items would be shipped. Clears my bank on 12/6. since then the status of my has says, "labels created". Today is 12/11.. So much for that "shipping as soon as payment clears. So today, I sent an email to customer service:

***"Hi. I placed this order on 12/5. My payment cleared on 12/6 according to my bank. For days now the status on this order has said "Label Created". When will this order ship? I placed it earlier enough that it would deliever by Christmas. Will it be delievered in time for Christmas? This is a slow waiting period for items to ship. "****

Their email back: **"We have received your request for information regarding the shipment of your order. We will send your order from our warehouse within 10 business days from the date your down payment clears. Please allow the appropriate length of time to receive your order."***

10 DAYS!!!!!!!! I'm looking at the 21st for a shipping date!! My next email is going along the lines of, if I dont received this my christmas, I'm returning the items & closing this account!!!! *** i'm closing it anyway!!! This is freaking ridiculous!!! I really think they want the next payment before they ship it! Greedy dam corperations.

Home At Five is soooooo much better!!! No hassels, no problems. Timely delievers!!

Monetary Loss: $120.

Is This A Scam????? You Wouldn't Be Lying To Me, Would You?

What you should be crying about is how ridiculously over priced most of that junk is and how high the shipping cost is. They want $110.00 to ship a 50 inch TV that they're charging nearly twice what you can buy it for on Ebay or at Walmart.

By the time you ad sales tax , shipping and the ridiculous over pricing, you'll give at least TWICE what you'll give for most of those TVS elsewhere and that goes for pretty much anything else. I've seen several things I would have bought, but the shipping is so high even on the small things , that by the time you factor in 100% mark up, Double to triple the actual shipping cost and sales tax, it just doesn't make sense.

If you don't have bad credit, you will .. They're like one of those Payday loan places that are making 500% interest from those INdian Reservations.

Wow do you cry much! All this is stated in the small print, how about you read it first!

And pre-approved does not mean APPROVED! Items take time to ship, 10 days from cleared payment. That is on the heading of your account when you first order.

You just want something to complain about. Shut the *** up cry baby!

ps. I've since learned Home at Five.com is a bunch of liars too.

But they're better at. They let you get comfortable with them first before they start trying to *** over.
