? You Decide.......
Yahoo Merchants process your customer's card BEFORE the authorization expires or you could end up with a customer like Alicia Shelton of Navarre Florida. She scammed us out of $136.90!
December 29, 2013
Alicia Shelton ordered a lighted poster from us through our Yahoo Store. The lighted posters are made to order and sometimes takes a couple of weeks. So as a courtesy we decided not to charge Alicia's credit card for the $136.90 order until the poster was ready to ship.
We shipped the poster to the 1933 Serosa Dr, Navarre Florida address Alicia put on her order the FedEx record shows she received it on January 10, 2014. Early February we noticed that Alicia's credit card was not charged for the order. Since the authorization on her credit card had expired we emailed her on Feb 8th, 2014 asking for the amount due. She did not respond to it so we gave her a call on Feb 26th. She answered and said she was at work with no time to talk and hung up on us. Hmmm....... strange considering that she seemed to have time to immediately write us an email regarding it.

"I'm at work and not able to address this matter right now. I'm also waiting on my credit statement to make sure this was not charged to my account. I'm a very honest person and plan to pay for this if I was not charged when the order was processed months ago. But in the mean time I would appreciate u not hounding me about this. It is not my fault that ur company made some mistakes now I do understand mistakes happen but lack of planning on ur part does not constitute an emergency on mine."
Alicia SheltonSo now it is November 2014 and Alicia never paid for the poster and ignores any attempt to collect the money.
I am submitting this story to WARN other Yahoo Store owners. CHARGE the customer's credit card before the authorization expires or refuse to ship the merchandise before receiving payment. Or you just may end up with an Alicia Shelton on your hands. Little Miss Honesty scammed us out of $136.90.
