  • Star City Games

I will NEVER order cards from Star City Games ever again:

When they screw your order up and make it so you can't play at a tournament because the expensive stuff you bought from them wasn't shipped until Wednesday even though you placed your order on Monday... don't bother calling customer service because their assistant manager Becky will be passive-aggressive and rude to you, and then when she asks for proof, don't bother forwarding the confirmation information they request because their head manager DJ won't even have the decency to call you--just email back until almost a week later to accuse you of fabricating your completely unaltered, legitimate proof.

I was so mad I wanted to just send it all back and buy the exact same cards from Channel Fireball, because they know how to treat their customers, but Star City wouldn't even refund me the priority shipping I payed for after they messed up, so I STILL would have lost money going that route.

I don't even know what else I could have done short of shipping my entire laptop to them so they could see I didn't alter the email verification I received from them. And I am like the most honest person ever, so aside from being mad about my wasted money, I was highly offended by their highly inappropriate accusation.

Poor business, would not recommend them to my worst enemy.

If you are looking to sell, do it elsewhere if at all possible. Ebay takes a pretty decent percentage of your money every time you sell something. And it adds up. Also, if you get like a million good reviews and then like 3 bad reviews, they do stuff like make your money pend for a month. Terrible if you're selling in a pinch.

Buying... well that's at your own risk; sometimes you will get really good deals and get what you payed for but... you can only take the seller's word for the quality of what you're getting, and not everyone will be honest. Also, if you have a time-frame you need the item by, that's up in the air as the seller may or may not mail it right away.

This site is amazing; I have gotten my car, my rat cage, and my kitchen table/chairs here, all at ridiculously low prices for great quality. Plus 2 jobs that I found posted here. It just has every major thing you could ever need!

Obviously just make sure you see photos of what you are buying, do your research, see it in person before committing to the sale, etc so you don't get ripped off.

I tend not to use the website, though it is well-organized and easy to use, as much as just going to one of their nearby stores because 1) I don't feel like paying shipping and 2) you can't buy pets online, only supplies.

I am a rat owner and have had 6 in my life. 4 of them I bought at Animart and they never had problems, 2 of them I bought from Petsmart, and both times within 48 hours of bringing them home I could tell they had respiratory infections (which progress quickly in rats and can quickly become life-threatening) at the time of sale. So I ended up having to bring them back for week-long treatments at their vet.

The only reason I'm not giving a terrible review is that the rats they sold me are very sweet, and aside from the gas money and time inconvenience, the treatment for their respiratory infections was free. However, selling an infected animal once can be coincidence... but twice starts looking like more of a pattern to me.

The Pets Perks card is cool though. I probably won't buy animals other than fish there again, but because of pets perks I do keep coming back for supplies.
