      Business Response

      Date: 01/02/2024

      **** ****** expresses dissatisfaction with a candy variety pack purchased from Shop The King, claiming that the product was falsely advertised, contained mostly unwanted flavors, and arrived with some bags opened and damaged. **** ****** insists that the advertisement was misleading and demands a full refund, indicating a willingness to take legal action and report to various agencies if the issue is not resolved satisfactorily. Despite discarding some of the damaged goods and donating the rest, **** ****** maintains the position that the entire order was unacceptable.
      Shop The King responds with apologies for the inconvenience and requests photographic evidence of the damage to proceed with a claim against the shipping carrier. They mention that the variety pack's contents vary based on availability, suggesting that the selection received by **** ****** was as advertised. Shop The King is open to issuing a partial refund for the damaged items but requests more information on the extent of the damage.
      **** ****** remains adamant about receiving a full refund, repeatedly citing the condition of the package and the issue with the advertising. Shop The King continues to ask for detailed evidence to address the concerns properly. Towards the end of the exchange, the communication stalls, with **** ****** threatening further action due to a perceived lack of responsiveness from Shop The King.
