      Hi, Jun 24/23 I purchased an in-stock television from their website, they emailed to let me know the it was out of stock July 11 and offered a further 5% discount for waiting. I had also noticed the ** manufacturers website also claimed a high volume of orders and delayed shipments although it was shown as in stock on the Shop Smart website at time of order. I continued to ask for updates and have asked for the order to be cancelled with no replies. I had not noticed my credit card was charged although the item was never in-stock or shipped. Order# **** Thank you.

      On Friday, Sept 15th, 2023 I placed an order for an air fryer for my workplace. The money was charged to my credit card. On Tuesday Sept 19th I was informed that the product was out of stock, would be back in stock within 14 days, and they would provide a 5% discount at the time of shipping. On Oct 4 I emailed to ask about the order. They replied on Oct 5th saying it was still back-ordered, asked if I wanted to continue with the order or take a refund. At the time I said to continue. On Nov 9th I asked again about the status, they replied the same day and said it was out of stock and did I want to cancel the order. On Nov 21st I wrote and asked them to cancel the order and refund my credit card.Nov 22nd they emailed, said my request was approved and that I would have a refund within 5-7 business days.

      I purchased 3 pairs of pants on their online site and received confirmation (Order #*****) that they were getting my order ready to ship on september 6, 2023. The payment showed up right away on my credit card bill. On september 21st I requested an update on order status and I received both a phone call and an email apologizing for the delay and offering me a 10% discount if I was willing to wait 1-2 weeks for the products to come back in stock. I emailed again on October 8th asking for a status update and they said that it may take another 1-2 weeks but to let them know if I preferred to cancel and they would issue a refund. I said I would wait. On November 8th, I emailed them to say it had now been too long and unless my order was ready to ship imminently I would like them to cancel it and issue me a refund. They emailed back right away to say that my request for refund had been approved and that I would get an email confirming it and should see the refund in 5-7 business days. On November 25th, I emailed them to say I had not yet received the refund. They responded on the 27th that the order had been canceled and that I should just wait f ew more days. On November 30th, I followed up again and asked them to escalate my request for refund right away. I never heard back. I followed up again on December 5th and have not heard anthing since November 27th. I then disputed the credit card charge in early January (I was unable to do it while overseas in December due to the banks' website) but was told by my bank that too much time had passed and that my only recourse is to go through BBB.

      I have been patiently waiting for this table since November 11, 2023. I finally decided I had waited long enough and requested a firm shipping date and if one could not be provided then issue me a refund. This was done January 4, 2024. As of this date I have yet to receive a reply. I would like to cancel my order and receive a full refund.
