I have been buying from Walmart for years. However, they don't care about their customers' lives during the pandemic. Their items are never stocked and frequently they are substituted or canceled. Their delivery is through Doordash and they don't wear masks. Do not tip drivers. Walmart pays slave labor, the local stores don't answer phones, products are overpriced and most items come from China that practices genocide. The owners do not pay taxes and are making billions in profit each year. Their prices are ridiculous. I miss buying from local businesses. Walmart and Amazon have destroyed the buying experience. I suggest we boycott Walmart and Amazon!

Tip for consumers:
Buy from anyone but Walmart and get vaccinated and wear a mask or you may die. Buy from local small business owners that enforce masking and proof of vaccine.

Everything!

The worst platform on the internet. My experience is they lie about everything on the platform. EBay is horrible but not compatible with Tophatter. Sellers are not US-based they are Chinese. Customer Service is unavailable. They lie about transit times and you can't contact sellers. You can't get your money back, just credits. If you buy, use PayPal so you have buyer recourse. DO NOT BUY ANYTHING ON THIS PLATFORM, EVER!

Tip for consumers:
DON'T BUY ANYTHING ON THIS PLATFORM

Products used:
Everything is horrible. Overpriced cheap Chinese junk!

Tophatter S. – Tophatter Rep

Hi Ken,

Thank you for sharing your experience and we're really sorry that it wasn't a great one. We value all sellers who contribute great deals and new discoveries for our shoppers, no matter where they are in the world. We have plenty of US-based sellers offering great products.

We are also available around the clock, 24-hours a day to answer any concerns that you may have. Just shoot us a message at https://tophatter.com/support/new#/ and a member of our friendly support team will get back to you as soon as we can.

In regards to transit times, there is an Estimated Delivery date for every purchase and this is based on historical data for the item, however, doesn't factor in Postal or Customs delays which are completely out of our control. This is why we cover all purchases with Buyer Protection https://tinyurl.com/yy6m335d where a refund will be issued after 60 days if the tracking does not update to confirm delivery to the mailing address provided at the time of payment. Refunds can be issued as Tophatter Credit or as a refund back to the original payment method. If you are issued a refund as Tophatter Credit, you can easily convert this to a refund back to the original payment method if the credit has not been used.

If you have any further questions, please don't hesitate to contact us.

Kind regards,

Tophatter Customer Support

EBAY FRAUD AND PRICE FIXING. I believe there are a few sellers in China that control the worldwide markets and eBay. They have sales and marketing agreements to inflate and control prices and disclosure/representatiions for ALL PRODUCTS on eBay. These people control everything including Ebays profits, shipping costs, listing fees, protecting sellers (not buyers). Ebay is owned by a few key individuals. The vast majority of the stock is owned by specific people with overseas companies. This is the largest fraud operation I have ever seen. I occasionally run into a honest person that have represented their items for a fair price including shipping. It's virtually impossible. They have millions of items for sale under different linked user names. There are a few people in China, Russia and a few other countries that own Ebay, PayPal, the money processing company in Europe (I do have specific details) and I look forward to receiving your reply. They also control Ebay's MONEY BACK GUARANTEE! There is absolutely no money back guarantee to protect buyers. EBAY HAS NEVER GIVEN ANYONE ON PENNY BACK. Ebay actually makes money on their guarantee. The only way is to catch a seller because they have agreed to my terms and conditions I SENT THEM BEFORE I PLACED MY ORDER. Then, if they say yes, you still have to go through Ebay hoops and wait. Ebay states there is buyer fraud on Ebay. I would like just one documented example. Buyers go through hell to attempt to get their money back. I'm sure it's possible to abuse the system. I want one case? I have now documented over 1000 sellers and items that are fraudulent. I have reported items and sellers. To date I have seen no evidence of the "fraud protection department" doing one thing to stop fraud. I could go one forever. Waiting for a honest reply. Ken

AVOID AT ALL COST. NEVER REFER ANYONE TO ANY OF THEIR HEALTH CARE SERVICES OR ASSISTED LIVING/NURSING FACILITIES. BUYERS BEWARE, RESIDENTS BEWARE (current and potential)! I do not recommend this facility. Numerous Care Agreement and Contrast violations. MEDICAID FRAUD. I am left with $2.63 to live on per day after they take my SSI check and Medicaid pays the balance. I pay over $25,000 a year for a small room, I get around 2 minutes of personal access and three small tasteless meals per day. There are numerous employees that use drugs, convicted felons, convicted felons residents and the staff can even pass controlled PAIN MEDICATIONS! They can easily pass a few drugs per person to a resident and keep the pain medication (use or sell) and nobody will ever know. Employee drug testing is a joke! I have even been told by current employees they are using illegal drugs. I control my medication in my room because I have a doctors order allowing me the opportunity to control my medications. I have concerns about leaving my medications in my room, when I leave the staff/aids know (Controlled medications) in my room. I actually had a lock Installed on my door! I have one key and the staff have additional keys. I was promised a lock box and have never received the box. The list of the violations is numerous. I desperately need help now! DO NOT PUT ANY PERSON IN THIS FACILITY. THIS IS NOT "A Place for Mom". I am a current resident and you can contact me anytime. My name is Ken D and I am in building 1 room 101. The facility is called Swan Falls Assisted Living in Kuna, Idaho. I have even called the local police and they refuse to help me! Wow, I have evidence of every violations, conversation, emails, notes, recordings and pages of notes. The reviews I have read for this facility are posted by employees not residents. I hope my review is not blocked by anyone and placed all over the internet. Bottom line, EVERYONE ONLY CARES ABOUT PROFITS and concealment. I DO NOT WANT ONE PENNY PERSONALLY. I WANT MEDICAID TO RECEIVE A FULL REFUND. I do want the care I am paying for not a "LETTER TO VACATE IN 30 days" because I have simply asked for OCCASIONAL ASSISTED LIVING! I have contacted the administrator, corporate office, owner, law enforcement, Medicaid and numerous other people to help me in ALL THE FACILITIES OWNED AND OR OPERATED BY Tanabel Health Services LLC. I need the services I am paying Now, I have a broken call button, I am physically disabled and just need occasional "ASSISTED LIVING". The employees spend a grand total of 1 to 2 minutes in my room per day. That privilege costs me more than $25,000 per year. That means I pay $35 dollars for each 2 minute block per day of staff time in my room! Wow! This industry is so profitable and controlled by companies that are conspiring to MAKE MORE MONEY, inflating costs and misrepresenting their products and services. This company gets a huge payment for a new resident or lead. Please HELP ME AND OTHERS IN REAL NEED! THANKS FOR READING MY REVIEW AND TRYING TO HELP THOS WHO NEED "Occasional Assisted Living", Ken D!

Do not ever use this service. I'm sure they will even try to block this review. I will give you one (I have dozens) of the type of facility they will send you too. They even charge Medicaid for asking simply questions. DO NOT GIVE THEM YOUR MEDICAID ID NUMBER, EVER. SEE REVIEW BELOW:
