      I placed an online order with ************************** on AUGUST 29. Because the mailing label did not include the street name (WHY?), it was "returned to sender" by ****. It has been sitting at the *********** in ************ since SEPTEMBER 14, and despite numerous emails on my part, no one from Buckeye Corner has bothered to pick it up so it can be resent to my son in ***. It is now SEPTEMBER 26. This is beyond ridiculous and HORRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE.(Note: There is NO WAY to speak with a human at **************************. I have confirmed this with the local stores, both at ************ and ******************. I was told by both stores that my complaint is not the only one they have heard.)

      Hello,

      We have had discussions with the customer about their order. We made sure to have someone go to the post office to try to recover the returned order, it was not there. Since we could not retrieve it, we are going to fully refund the order. In addition we are sending them a $25 gift card to use at the Buckeye Corner stores for the inconvenience. The customer was satisfied with this resolution.

      Hello ******,

       

      I am sorry you have not heard back to us about your return. We had issues with the contact form notifying us when people right in last month, but it has been fixed now. I am checking with our distribution center to verify if we got this return and if we are able to refund you. Once I hear back about the return status, I will let you know. You should hear back with us within 48 hours.

       

      Thanks!

      I am rejecting this response because: the retailer said they submitted a refund for $53 and change on 11/18 to card ending in *****. I don’t have a card ending in that number. I paid via PayPal and the retailer should credit my PayPal.

      Hello Pamela,

       

      I am sorry you still have not received your full refund. It appears you are still owed back $18.38 in a refund for your order. Can you confirm this amount is correct? If so, I can see if we can write you a check to be sent to you for that amount.

      Once again, I apologize for the issues you have had

       

      Thanks!

      Hello ******,

      I am sorry you have trouble getting a hold of us. I will contact our distribution center about this issue and getting you a return label to send those wrong items back to us. I will also ensure with them that we have the right items for your order to send you. I should have answer on these for you within the next 2 business days.

      Thanks!

      I purchased an item online from buckeyecorner.com for $110. When I received the item, the ticket on the item and poly bag it came in said $100. I tried going to the store to price-adjust, but they said since it was online they could not help. I reached out to the business via email twice over the last 7 days and have not gotten a response. I am looking for a price-adjustment, and am considering taking legal action to require them to update their website to pricing listed on the products tag.

      Hello,

      I apologize for the delay in our response! We are looking into the issue of the price discrepancy. Unfortunately, we are not able to process a refund for this, but we are sending a gift card for $10 that can be used. That should be going to the customer shortly if they have not recieved it by email already.

      Let me know if you need anything else!

      This is a larger issue than a “price discrepancy”. This is illegal price gauging and I do not intend to shop at this business again. I would prefer to spend my money at other companies who treat customers with respect. Therefore, I will accept a refund of my money back, but not a gift card to go spend more money at this fraudulent company.

      Business Response

      Date: 09/26/2022

      We have issued this customer a refund via check for $10.75, the check takes 2-4 weeks to process and mail out, but he is aware this process is underway, in addition to a $25 gift card. I also offered to fully refund him if he wanted to send the item back. The items are priced correctly on the website and we charged him for that amount - the item is tagged incorrectly and when he went to the store, the price they sell them for in store is $110 as well. 

       

       

       

       

      Customer Answer

      While they compensated me for the incorrectly tagged item, they did not compensate me for my time spent emailing back and forth a total of 33 times, all for the business to continue to ignore my requests and the customer care managers rude behavior. I asked for the opportunity to speak to the legal team who made the decision, but was denied. If O have an opportunity to speak with the legal team to hear the reasons why my compensation request was denied, I would be happy to close this complaint.
