>There is no way to get a hold of Dave… no phone

>a great gift, what more could you want for just test
>driving a car!” Ed even mentioned that he would drive
>50 minutes each way just to get the gift even if he
>was not interested in purchasing a car.

>I showed Ed the various gifts on the website and

>exact same shipping and handling you would pay if you
>purchased the items on TV for full price of $29.95.

>I also explained to Ed, the owner of
>www.badbusinessbureau.com about the fact that when
>someone went to a particular search engine and typed
>in www.selectyourgifts.com that the only thing that
>came up was his Rip-Off Site. I told him that his

>report. Instead he told me that my company should PAY
>HIM $5,000 and he would do an independent review of
>Select Your Gifts and give us a favorable report
>because he had just spent 90 minutes understanding
>that “we give great value to the consumer”… “what more
>could they want for test-driving a car”.
>
>Ed went on to tell me that we would get “all kinds of
>business out of this bad report” because people would
>see the NEGATIVE and then when they click on the

>would say that we are indeed a good company. He did
>qualify his response by saying that he would endorse
>Select Your Gifts, but he would never say a good word
>about the auto dealer because “he hated auto dealers”.
>
>
>I told Ed we were submitting a rebuttal to the posting

>$5,000 and then qualified the request for money
>stating that “the $5,000 would only cover 4 Rip-Off
>Reports mentioning our company.”

>I went on to tell Ed that there was NO RIP-OFF. No

>blank… where is the Rip-Off? Ed went on to say that
>he was just a consumer advocate that allowed people to
>vent their frustrations. He did say that “this person
>went overboard” and “his complaint was unjustified.”
>
>I then asked Ed to take the Report off of the website.

Complaint About a breeder in Brazil

Serra de Itanhandu Kennel in Brazil
Gerson Ribeiro Junqueira de Barros
also called Cachaca Guapiara

Took $1300.00 and when I cancelled the order for the puppy a fila brasileiro he would not send the money back. He would not send me another puppy when I asked and would not x-ray the puppy either, at four months to ensure I was not getting a dysplastic puppy. I cancelled the transaction because the majority of his offspring are dysplastic and need to be replaced. He continues to send puppies to the US but fails to honor some replacements. I found out about people's experiences after I sent him the money Western Union in July 2006.
