Never got my $950 CAMERA !!!!
- - Won a $950 Nikon camera but never received it; the company was behind in funding.
- - Promised cash or prize with a certified letter and owner contact, but nothing delivered.
Has anybody ever gotten a final resolution with this company? I won a $950 Nikon camera , and they said they were behind in funding.
I went through the process with choosing an option to get cash or the prize and certified letter. Even talked to the guy who said he was the owner. In just a short time I'd receive my camera when he got funding. Nothin, Nothing, NOTHING !!!!
Do people like this go to jail, or what's the deal? I'd appreciate any information. It's been a couple years now.
This was a bid site similar to QuiBids, for10cents.com, named so because their bids cost 10 cents, whereas I think Quibids is 60 cents per bid. jimber68@***.com
- I won a big item
Preferred solution: Let the company propose a solution
Merchandise Review
- - They owe me over $3500 in merchandise.
- - I called them every day with no response.
- - They emailed saying they were working on it a long time ago.
Just like everyone else on here they owe me over $3500 in merchandise, I would call them everyday and still don't get a response. They sent an email saying there working on it a long time ago but we all know they aren't coming back.
Ripped Off. Never sent merchandise totalling over $100,000.
- - Won items not shipped for 2 years; company unreachable for about 1 year.
- - Owes well over $100,000; shipping slowed to halt over 1.5 years.
It's been 2 years since receiving any merchandise won through the auction site. It's been almost 1 year since being able to get in touch with anyone from the company.
In the first couple years, shipping of merchandise was relatively fast and the company seemed legit. Then over the course of the next 1 1/2 years, shipping of won items slowed down to a halt.
The owner said he's trying to secure financing but I'm sure that was just to get his family out of the country. Seems not many attorneys are apt at going after penny auction sites and the ones that are, seem only interested in getting a large group of plaintiffs or class action suit.
THE TOTAL THEY OWE ME IS WELL OVER $100,000.
Waiting 1 1/2 years with lots of lies from them
- - Won an Apple laptop ($1500) in Feb 2012; nothing received by Aug 2013.
- - They gave shipping-date stories; they became unreachable.
I won an Apple laptop ($1500) in February 2012. It is now August 2013 and nothing.
I actually talked with them several times files papers with them and was always told some story about the shipping date. Then I could never get through. I was particularly disturbed that they were continuing to operate and bring in money and not dispense the products. It wasn't just how much in the end I paid but that I had bought bids for months trying to win.
I see they are offline now.
I want to know if there is a Class Action Suit going on. Or has anyone been successful in getting money from them?
Scam
- - They took about 7,000 and I waited over a year; Wilhelm lied.
- - The Chicago address points to another company.
- - How do you file a small-claims case?
They got me for aboout 7,000. I waited over a year before giving up on them.
Don't bother with BBB they aren't effective. I actually went to their address in Chicago to collect, but guess what, the address they use is a completely different company who were not very helpful. You can fill out a claim with the Illinois DA and mail it in. I think it worked for a while, but I think they've all skipped out of the country by now.
I was living on the street for a while waiting for Wilhelm's promises to come through. The man's a *** of a good liar, I'll give him that. Hope I meet him someday so I can show him some gratitude. If anyone knows a way to collect let me know.
How do you file a small claims court case? (warchild138@***l)
RIPPED OFF BY FOR10CENTS
- - Owed over $3000 in winnings; waiting almost 2 years.
- - CEO has promised via emails; no results yet.
- - May pursue class action with lawyers if enough join.
i HAVE THE SAME STORY AS EVERYBODY ELSE, THEY OWE ME OVER $3000. IN WINS.
i HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR ALMOST 2 YEARS MAY 2011. SAME LETTERS SAME EMAILS. HOPEFULLY SOMETHING WILL HAPPEN SOON. I AM AT MY LIMITS WITH THIS COMPANY, I WILL SPEND MY NEXT $3000.
FIGHTING THEM.
IF ANY LAWYERS READ THIS I WILL GIVE YOU CASH AND HALF OF MY WINS IF YOU CAN WIN AGAINST THIS SCAM *** COMPANY.I have talked with the CEO several times but get nowhere I also have numerous emails and promises to deliver but I never receive anything. If you are in the same boat I am let me know I will start a class action suit if I can get enough people to share their story with my lawyer.
Company failed for over year to deliver items.
- - Won items $2,000 not delivered for a year.
- - Fall 2011 auctions had iPads and gift cards.
- - They say financing is arranged to enable deliveries.
The penny auction site, for10cents has failed, for over a year, to send me items "won" on their auction site. The total worth was over $2,000.
The items included Ipads and gift cards. The time frame of the auctions was the fall of 2011. They continually state they are trying to arrange financing which will allow them to make the deliveries.
Whether they are making deliveries on current "wins," I do not know. I contact them regularly by email and they respond, but always indicating they are expecting or hoping for something good to happen, but it never does.
Update on For10cents.com
- - Chicago BBB: For10cents lied and got an F rating.
- - A small claims case was filed.
- - Filing small claims costs about 80 dollars.
I had gone thru the Chicago BBB. For10cents lied to them and they dropped it saying there is nothing else they can do other than give them an F rating which they have done.
Filed a small claims court case against them. They are fighting it. So, at least they had to hire a lawyer. I will go to the end of the earth to see that these guys are shut down and stop ripping people off.
I cant believe that someone from Europe can come here, start a website with the sole intent of STEALING from people and we dont have laws to stop them.
File your small claims lawsuits!! Yes, it will cost you another 80 bucks but at least they will have to pay a lawyer.
For10cents.com is a scam site
- - They take in money daily but never ship products.
- - I spent over $1,000 and won three items in 2011.
- - They admit not sending products to anyone.
They take in money every day and never ship any products. I spent over $1,000 and "won" three different items over a 2 month period.
(September-October 2011). Since then, they respond to my emails (which has to be close to 50 by now), with "thank you for your patience and understanding, we should have an update for you in 2 weeks". This has been going on for almost a YEAR now. The clincher for me was when they admitted to me in an email that they are not sending products to ANYONE.
So, every day, they take in FREE money with no intention of shipping any products. The CEO is in Europe.
He is laughing all the way to the bank.
For10cents.com
- - I'm owed thousands of items and may file internet fraud charges.
- - I'm contacting a TV show and the for10cents page for follow-ups.
I m owed thousands in items willing and wanting to file internet fraud charges a class action law suit is exactly the target im contacting the tv show they promote to do a follow up all should do the same on the top of for10cents web page also contacting local news channel that offers free scam investigations to open the doors to all plans of action may not ever get items but to have them locked up and clossed down will be some satisfaction again all should do the same and hundreds more will come forward and justis will be sereved
Fraud.....fraud
- - Logged into the for10cents auction and bid, but never received items.
- - It's a fraudulent site with thousands of complaints that is still operating.
i logged into ((for10cents))) a on line auction, there were lots of good items that was posted for auction.
I joined their cite and started bidding on items. over the 4 months i never got the items i won.
i just happened to find out that they were a fraud site--thousands of complaints . they took me for thousands of dollars... lucky i was using (citi) credit card..
i called them and they will recover my money...THE for 10cents auction cite is still running and people are getting riped off still i had communication with the cite by phone and email . ithey were always curtions and explained why i wasnt getting my items and that the were being sent THEY ARE STILL OPERATING JUST LOG IN TO ((FOR10CENT) OR LOG INTO PENNY AUCTIONS AND LOOK UP THEIR CITE..
For10Cents.com. Took my money and didn't send the product.
- - Won and paid for a 32GB iPod Touch on For10Cents.com in June 2011; not received.
- - Delivery delayed; no replies; BBB of Chicago complaint filed.
I registered and participated in auctions on the internet auction site For10Cents.com. I won and paid for a 32GB Ipod Touch in June 2011.
The company sent me an email telling me that I would be receiving the item in 4 weeks. After waiting for six weeks, I sent For10Cents.com an email requesting them to look into why I hadn't received my Ipod. They returned an email message to me stating that it normally took 6 to 8 weeks to receive a product that has been won once it has been paid for. I waited for another month giving them the benefit of two more weeks before I tried to contact them again.
When I still did not receive my product I sent them another email, this time they did not respond. I tried to call their office several times and left several messages on the answering machine. They never responded again. I finally contacted the Better Business Bureau of Chicago, Illinois and filed a complaint.
They sent two letters to them without receiving an answer.
So basically, I bid on and won a 32 GB Ipod Touch worth almost $400.00 and they never sent me the item. I just wonder how many other people they did this to.

I never did. They send me a small check at one time which bounced, costing me more money.
They owe me a lot, but I gave up trying after that check bounced. Didn't know what else to do.
