Problems with - Wholesalerwholesaler.com

I ordered a case of powerplayer video games from them for a total cost of 274 usd. I finally received them and tried one out. It didn't work. I tried a second one and that didn't work. I contacted the company asking for a refund. They answered back they do not accept returns on electronics. Ok Maybe I missed it. They went on to tell me 'good news'. It appears the units that were shipped were internally locked. I could contact the distributer to find out how to unlock them. Wait a minute! How can I resell these if I have to open the package? Furthermore, They were not advertised as internally locked if they were not promoted as take out of the box and play I would not have bought. I have posted good things about their jewelry but I am sad to say I can not recommend them anymore. I am a single mom trying to move into new merchandise on ebay and a hit like that just set me back further than I can take. Oh well lesson learned.

Im not sure whats going on here as in the whole situation. But Im hoping this is something that joes staff told you. Joe hangs out here.

Joe is there anything you can do for her? Maybe you can help her out? Increase your business from her in another way?

Do you think I should file a dispute with paypal?

I would wait. Joes a pretty good guy I think he will respond here to this matter.

If you read the information provided in our terms and services, we do not allow refunds on any electronic equipment, including the PowerPlays.

However, there is good news for you, Nikki. It seems these units were shipped with the internal power switch in the OFF position, although I cannot tell you exactly how to turn the switch on, by contacting our vendor who handles the Power Play units, they can talk you through this simple process.

I am requesting the contact info for whom you can talk directly to, and will update this ticket as soon as I get that information.

Sincerely,
Chris Clement

This is the email they sent me after I complained two random games from the same case of plug and play video games would not load. Umm would you buy a 'brand new' electronic with tampered plastic wrap and the unit obviously jimmied open? HMMMM I wouldn't think so. Worse they were advertised as 'just pull out of case and put on your retail shelf or list them one by one on ebay or your website.' I'm not thinking so. I am glad I tried them before I received negative feedback from a buyer. I am still trying to build feedback and I'm sure the more experience sellers out there are cringing right now. Not only that, the jewelry I ordered on the same day has yet to arrive.

Yes Link hidden: Login to view is the vendor email Link hidden: Login to view for intructions how to turn on the switch. If it really is that much hassle
send them back we will refund and we are sorry a simple sliding of a switch has caused you hassle?

You mention a jewelry order that hasnt arrived?
Do you have the order date and order number?

Ps was not our intention to sell the games
the require the turning on of a switch to come on?
I am sorry and as a result we have removed them from our site and will focus on jewelry and other goods we have control over :) We work with 35 vendors plus on our site and when issues pop up we get them fixed. All business people have issues its part of business its how the company responds is what is important..... Thanks Joe

Thank you, Joe for your quick and professional reply.

I think you did the right thing for your reputation by not dealing those anymore.

My son was so disappointed when none of the ones I tried worked.

I have pm'd you some information regarding this order and a request for return information.

Subject: pay pal info. for jewelry and powerplayers/ return info
Below you will find my paypal receipt for said purchases with the jewelry info below. Please send me return shipping information for the powerplayers. Thank you so much for taking care of this for me. I tried three of these systems and none worked. I'm sorry for being a pain.

Thank you for your courteous treatment!

Nikki

ps. I'm not a electronics dummy. I know the difference between an external on and off switch and an internal. I grew up playing video games and know how to turn them on and set them up. :D

I have no problem with that, Joe, not at all.

Thanks Joe, I knew you would take care of this. :D

Joe,
Did you get my PM?

Maybe he's not back yet.

Just to let people know, Mr. Richie has been in touch with me and he says he is working on my refund .

Just refunded your paypal account $278.00 for order 51741 and thanks for letting me know you did get a second case of power players which we didnt bill you for.... As I told you in the private message just slide the switch inside the controller and they will come on as I got the same game at my office. If thats too much hassle just throw the free case away or sell below cost on ebay and keep the proceeds :) Hope we are good to go now...... Thanks Joe

Just checking in on Salehoo make sure all is good....... Thanks Joe

thanks Joe

I would like to add some additional jewelry I bought from Joe is selling for about twice as much as I bought it for on ebay. Thanks Joe!

Awesome news did you know you can make even higher asking proces if you make a website and buy pay per click ads in the search engines. Ebay is such a flooded nest and people think thats the only option online..... We are glad your making some profits and look forward to servicing your account as always.

What are pay per click ads?
