      Better Business Bureau:



      I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ********, and have determined that this does not resolve my complaint.  For your reference, details of the offer I reviewed appear below.

      The cap was purchased from Fanatics.com, they require a $9.99 fee to restock the cap and the stickers to still be on it.  I did not realize this and took the stickers off before placing the cap on my head and noticing all the defects. I will not pay a fee to have a poorly manufactured cap replaced, after I have already paid for it.

      I was excited to have a new cap and have never had this problem before so didn't even think to look for defects.

      I opened the box with the cap on 9/18/2022, my birthday.

      Photos are already enclosed in the original send.

      The reason I reached out to New Era is because New Era owns patent # 6625818B2 and I would think would like to uphold the standards they were willing to patent.  Even the sweatband is made out of a cheaper, thinner material than all of my other 39Thirty caps.

      I hope reputation is being taken into consideration as the outcome will determine whether I continue to collect New Era caps.



      [To assist us in bringing this matter to a close, we would like to know your view on the matter.]



      Regards,

      I returned two hats to New Era Caps. They made me send them back individually. I was provided with 2 return labels to drop off at ***. Return 1 Order number ******** was ******* ***** *** FATHERS DAY 2022 59FIFTY FITTED - 7 5/8 total refund $46.74. Return 2, Order number ******** was ******* ***** CITY EDITION 59FIFTY FITTED - 7 3/4 total refund $31,86. I dropped both packages off at *** on July 13, 2022.

      Order number ******** was received on July 15th and stated it would take up to 10 business days to show in my account. It's 8/22/22, I have not received the refund or any communication. I paid using ******.

      Order number ******** is alleged to have never been received. I dropped this off at the same Dropp Off at The *** Store as order number ********. As an Amazon member, I have not had one issue dropping off packages to *** and being received by ******, especially what we all have experienced in the past couple of years. What makes it even more of a kick in the shin, this was a gift that arrived damaged.
