Tinsley y.

I watched a dim, soft-focused copy of "Portia on Trial" with Walter Abel and Frieda Inescort on Youtube, enjoyed it very much, and decided to buy what I thought would be a nicer copy from Oldies.com. No such luck. The Oldies version looks suspiciously like the Youtube version. But shame on me! I've rarely ordered a film from Oldies that wasn't a tremendous disappointment.

On July 4, I ordered a pair of "Poplin Forever" men's pants from Haband. A few hours later, after reading the horrendous reviews of Haband and its products on this and other sites, I emailed Haband, asking that my order be cancelled and my Paypal account credited. The company replied two days later that my order was being processed and could not be cancelled. I then filed a complaint with Paypal, which concluded that there was "no basis" for my complaint, whatever that means. When the pants arrived, I found that Haband's "Poplin Forever" slacks were not poplin (a material of cotton or another natural fiber material) but instead were 100 percent polyester--and the absolute worst quality polyester and most poorly crafted pants I have ever seen. For a $9.99 flat fee, I returned the pants to Haband but filed another complaint with Paypal on the ground that the pants were not (poplin) as advertised. That complaint, I assume, is still under review with Paypal. Meanwhile Haband received the pants and billed my Paypal account for the $9.99 return fee, but has not credited my Paypal account for the return--which means I've now laid out $43.00 for a $21.00 pair of pants and no longer even have the pants. The absolute pits of a company!
