    I ordered a violin online from Sam Ash as a birthday gift for someone on March 1st. I received a confirmation email of my order and payment. The confirmation had a tracking button so over the next couple weeks I kept checking the tracking but it just would take me back to the order. I ended up calling Sam Ash directly and was told the item was on backorder. They were unable to tell me why this wasn't stated on the website or in my order confirmation email. They made an estimate of 3 weeks as to when I might expect the item but then told me my payment had expired. When I questioned what this meant, they informed me that since I paid through Paypal, my payment had "fallen off," and that they would reach back out to me about payment. I asked why I wasn't informed of this and they had no answer so I requested to speak to a supervisor. I was put on hold very briefly and then told the supervisor was on their lunch break. I requested a call back and am still waiting. I am doubtful I will actually get my item and will never use this store again. Buyer beware.

BBB Business Profiles are provided solely to assist you in exercising your own best judgment. BBB asks third parties who publish complaints, reviews and/or responses on this website to affirm that the information provided is accurate. However, BBB does not verify the accuracy of information provided by third parties, and does not guarantee the accuracy of any information in Business Profiles.

When considering complaint information, please take into account the company's size and volume of transactions, and understand that the nature of complaints and a firm's responses to them are often more important than the number of complaints.

BBB Business Profiles generally cover a three-year reporting period, except for customer reviews. Customer reviews posted prior to July 5, 2024, will no longer be published when they reach three years from their submission date. Customer reviews posted on/after July 5, 2024, will be published indefinitely unless otherwise voluntarily retracted by the user who submitted the content, or BBB no longer believes the review is authentic. BBB Business Profiles are subject to change at any time. If you choose to do business with this company, please let them know that you checked their record with BBB.

As a matter of policy, BBB does not endorse any product, service or business. Businesses are under no obligation to seek BBB accreditation, and some businesses are not accredited because they have not sought BBB accreditation. BBB charges a fee for BBB Accreditation.
