Since these are tangible goods and they are charging to facilitate the shipment of the goods, and the Button says "Order and Pay" (not Submit Pledge), they would be hard-pressed to stay on the right side of the provisions of the Mail Order Act. Which in says that they have to deliver in the promised timeframe. If they can't estimate a timeframe, they have to clearly explain why they can't estimate when this item they are selling will ship. If no timeframe is stated, a 30-default is assumed. If they miss (or believe they will), they have to proactively give the consumer the choice to accept the new timeframe. A non-response from the customer is interpreted as non-acceptance. Which triggers an automatic, expeditious refund of funds remitted in the form it was remitted. Just something to remember when the first wave of sweatshop crap comes drifting in 6 weeks from now, drop-shipped from Guangzhou via China Post with declared value of $1. This would be a good test case - submit a complaint to the FTC to settle the Pledge or Purchase debate once and for all once they screw up.

Golli posted:Since Amazon and CIG are partnered, someone should ask why CIG is doing the exact opposite of Amazon Prime for their merch sales. If you want a refund, it definitely rises to the level of an FTC complaint. It's also a DCBA complaint, and an Attorney General of CA complaint, and an Attorney General of LA County complaint. Attorney General of LA: http://da.co.la.ca.us/contact/forms Choose consumer fraud. CA Attorney General, State of California Department of Justice: https://oag.ca.gov/contact/consumer-complaint-against-business-or-company Department of Consumer and Business Affairs, Los Angeles County: https://iddweb.isd.lacounty.gov/dca_ecomplaint/ File a consumer complaint. Federal Trade Commission: https://www.ftccomplaintassistant.gov Pick other under any category. Also contact any local county, state, or federal agency relevant to you. Just citing the full list of agencies to complain to, since they haven't been posted out in this thread for a while. XK fucked around with this message at 01:36 on Apr 29, 2017 |

Instead of the usual turn of cat pictures, food recipes, fashion advice, or VR discussions we descended on poor rich people today and brutalized their plight against poordom. I feel shame.  Derek needs to write a serious blog and piss all over Chris's letter so he gets all Escapist article again on us next week. Can we plan fuckups like that?

If they hadn't given us such a rich, full, delicious diet of failure to this point, we wouldn't have gotten used to it. We wouldn't need it. We wouldn't crave it. For the threadGoons, CIG failure is like oxygen. Every second of every day, or we feel our chests burning in an inescapable craving, so we try to blunt the agonizing pain by turning on each other.
