I have reviewed the business response and accept this resolution., as the outcome is what I originally requested, however I am unsatisfied with how this was handled overall. Not only was this not handled in a timely manner, but "sorry about that" is about as rude as it gets, especially after being told twice that the order was already shipped when it wasn't. Nobody "jumped" onto anything, there was no resolution until after they were notified that the BBB complaint was made. This is unprofessional and bad practice, and I sincerely wish they would do more to train their employees on how to handle issues without it being escalated.
I can't expect them to do more than what was asked, however, and unlike those employees, I cannot move the goalpost of what my requested resolution was.
I know nobody is going to actually read this, at least not on their end, and if by chance they do, they likely won't care. With that said, please close this case out.
Thanks.

The retailer sold expired coffee without clearly mentioning that items have gone beyond the expiration date. They mentioned that it is safe to consume after the expiration but not one line that stated that the items were expired. It was also labeled as being organic, which it is not. When I reached out to the company for a refund, I was told that I would need to pay for the shipping. This is extremely unfair as I would have never purchased the items if they were honest and straightforward. I believe they should pay for the shipping and also pay for wasting my time and money on something that should have been thrown out instead of sold to the general public.Business response

The Best By dates were clearly stated in the product description as follows:
Dark Roast: Best By 9/30/23
Hazelnut: Best By 9/29/23
Mocha: Best By 3/26/23Per the manufacturer these are safe and acceptable to consume up to 12 months after their dating
(I've included a screenshot of that in the documentation.)
As the product delivered is as described, we won't be able to cover return shipping for this return.
I hope that helps clear things up.

I am rejecting this response because: Best by date is not an explanation date. Furthermore, there are 4 cases that have a Best By date of July 7/11/23 which wasnt even listed.
I would like a full refund and shipping charges either refunded or be given a prepaid label.Business response

The date in the photo is clearly listed as a Best By date and not an expiration date. The Mocha flavor had a quoted Best By date of 3/26/23. The date in the photo is after that.
Customer response

I am rejecting this response because: Im not disputing whats clearly listed as a best by date. Im disputing that a best by date isnt CLEARLY an explanation date. I dont know why this seller seems to think its the same thing. All they needed to do was state on the email that it was expired coffee. The seller knows had they listed as such and was honest, people such as myself would not have purchased it.Initial Complaint

i purchased an electronic mop, ************* Vendor stands only by its limited warranty of 60 days. In my opinion the product was faulty as it stopped working within 14 months. I am seeking replacement, but minimally more than boiler plate response. I have attempted to escalate matter to senior management who doesn't even have courtesy to respond.Note: I have also tried to work with manufacturer, also with no result. I have filed a separate BBB complaint about them earlier today.Business response

Unfortunately, the product was several months past the warranty date and we won't be able to replace or refund this order.
We're happy to cover warranty replacements within the stated warranty period.

I am rejecting this response because they continue to repeat, like a broken record, that after their short warranty period they disavow any responsibility for products they sell. Although they may be legally in the right, this is not good consumer policy. As such, it should count against their BBB ratings and other consumers should be warned.Initial Complaint

I purchased a product advertised on a major morning news show from MORNING SAVE. The product is "MERKURY INNOVATIONS SMART WI-FI LED BULBS". I am not able to get them to work with the ****** app" as instructed to. I contacted an on line representative notifying them of this reoccurring problem. I requested a refund after this and was only getting back and forth questions but not how to get instructions under the Warranty they told me exist to get a Refund. This appears to be unresolved less online thru that contact person so I am now filing a BBB complaint at this point.Business response

I paid for the membership and made multiple purchases. Their service became slower and slower to the point where orders were still not shipped for a week plus. I attempted to cancel these orders and they refused. So I canceled my membership and will now be shipping back all orders in process. I would not recommend at all they are a fly by at best with this type of service.Business response

Hello,
Unfortunately, once an item has entered the shipping queue we can no longer cancel it. The customer may refuse delivery of their orders and will be refunded when the items are processed back through our returns team in the warehouse.
