      Product Issues
      Status:
      Answered
      My husband and I purchased ******** **** shrimp for $32.39 and Jumbo Alaskan King CR for $101.18 on 7/2/22 at 15:14:21 per the top of the receipt. The Jumbo Alaskan King CR was boiled for approx. 30 seconds that evening, and the ******** **** Shrimp was rinsed under cold water and placed on ice. Both products were extremely tough, and oddly extremely stringy. The Jumbo Alaskan King Cr was worse than the ******** **** Shrimp, but both were inedible and thrown in the garbage. I did however keep the receipt, and called and spoke to Barb and Mike to file the complaint. I was informed that because I did not keep the spoiled seafood to return, or the plastic bags that it was sold in, I would be unable to prove that I "was the one who purchased" the items. Even with the receipt that could connected to my credit card number used to pay for the items. I was also instructed by Mike that it was Jungle Jim's duty to "protect their assets" especially when I could have just picked up/or found the receipt, indicating that I would have no way to prove that it was I who purchased the spoiled seafood. I had always thought that this was the reason for the receipt, as proof of purchase? Barb (more so than Mike) went in to detail that because it was such a high amount, this was the an issue to prove that we actually purchased the items. According to Webster's Oxford edition, a receipt (noun) is the action of receiving something or the fact of it being received. I did explain to Barb that know that due to the high amount, and trouble it would cause that I would be happy with a store credit, and she agreed and stated she did not want me to be unhappy. But after my conversation with Mike, I am requesting a full refund. No store should expect (nor do they) have customers bring in expired/spoiled seafood or the wrapping it came in. My credit card/receipt attaches the purchased items to me. Receipt information: Trx: ** Term: ** Store # **** 15:15:57 Unacceptable.

      This morning I came to the store because I wanted to purchase some Russian products. As I was walking through the store I couldn't find sign that says RUSSIA. I then noticed a store worker and asked him where the RUSSIA was. He said they have removed the RUSSIA signs because of "what is happening". I asked him what was happening. He said that "Russia is BAD". And then I asked him why. He said because Russia invaded Ukraine that is why. He then said it is "right here" pointing on the RUSSIA signs (there are TWO of them; I do have pictures). He then added that they used to have a LARGE sign saying "Russia". When everything had just started their put Ukrainian flags by the products from Ukraine "to somehow support them". Please do not there were NO signs saying "Ukraine". I am just SHOCKED and I do feel disciminated against. The gentelman had NO right to express his opinion like that. I mean he HAD but not being one of the workers there. I don't think he even realized what he had done. This company, in my opinion, might want to hire a professional legal help to put "Inclusions and diversity" training. I am hurt and I am just shocked.

      At this time Jungle Jim's is in the middle of a remodel and all of our European countries are together in 1 aisle. This is just temporary until we open our new expansion so that we can continue to grow our countries' selection. All signs will be back as soon as we are finished.
