“BUYER BEWARE! THIS IS SCAM!”

The ad mentions nothing about a membership! You think you are buying a PlayStation! After putting in your credit card info and they accept it and charge your card then you find out you are buying a MEMBERSHIP... not a PlayStation! This is very deceiving! I contacted them right away and they refuse to give me my 59.99 back even though their ad says 100% money back guarantee! Below is a copy of the ad... no where does it mention membership... beware!

I order iPhone XR in October 2019, they say it is $60 then when I buy it I find out they want me to do surveys. Then they say make 300 points to get the iPhone XR, when I email them they say to read policy. But they did not say this before when we were buying it. $60 wasted bull $#*! website, now today they email us they want $200 more then they said they will send iPhone XR. If somebody find the person who make this website they tell me, I want to sue this company.

If you read the fine print it does say for example a ps4 is 300 points plus 39.95 fee which led me to understand probably surveys etc to accumulate points. Since it sounded to good to be true that's why I read those areas then searched reviews online. I dont know how long it would take to get 300 points but would be worth it if it worked. I did ask for details on that so if I get a response I'll share it

False advertising and trickery sale, back-page fine print is not visible unless you already made the sale and look at the pages privacy policy and terms of service to the page which is not readily obvious during purchase. This is an illegal form of trickery. Plus to make it hard to even find their real sale they only bill you 36.99 and call their company ELECTRONICS to the bank, the only charge my rep could find for 39.99 was not them. The number they give bank if you call it wont be helpful either. Remember the website, and then click on member or that terms of service of other missed points during the purchase you will see you have to do surveys and like ten essays some three pages long just to hope you get the purchase. Instead of bother bank, I tried to do the surveys, and they kept saying that my answer were too quick not accepted. Then when asking me if I have kids it only gave choices of 1-4 and I have none. The whole thing is made to make you want to give up, and people with money who see it as chump change will not waste their time. It is a scam that tricks you in, and then tries to bore you out. I wonder if they get money for the work you do at about $5 to $10 a lead, as that is the going rate to lead to insurance agencies these days. Besides, an XBOX ONE S New will be on market for cheaper soon, a GAMESTOP bought mine for less than $60 dollars if that says anything. Don't do it, unless you really want to try all those essays and surveys that are sometimes half hour long surveys that wont work at the end anyway.

I made a foolish purchase from Refurbished -electronics before Googling reviews. When I saw the reviews I messaged and cancelled my order within 12 hours. Refurbished Electronics acknowledged receiving my message but charged my BoA VISA account anyways. When I tried to contact them again they made themselves impossible to reach. Thank you BoA and VISA for getting my account credited for the charges that were posted by Refurbished Electronics under the name Opinion Shopping.

Extremely deceptive website. They make it sound like you get a PlayStation four for $59.99 but you really get roped into a scam. I am having my bank reversed the charges bet the inconvenience is horrendous. There isn't one person who wrote a good review for this company because there is none. It is a complete scam and I will spend money energy attempting to put this company out of business. I only rated this one because they didn't have any negative numbers to choose.

They promise you a decent refurbished item for a great cost, and then they up and steal your $#*!ing money! These foreigners better be put on alert because if I ever find out who they are, they are damn well going to regret they crossed mine and my wife's path! I will make sure they pay for what they did! I sure as hell wish I could give them zero mother$#*!ing stars because they are not worthy of a single one!

Decided to buy an Xbox One S from this site seeing the low price was and how it came with a warranty. Even if I had gotten a broken console I still could've salvaged or looked into the damage. Initially I was excited and read all the text on the screen to make sure it wasn't a scam. I bought it and a few days later realized you had to fill out a ridiculous amount of surveys to acquire the item which wasn't mentioned at all on the products screen, only in the Terms and Conditions fine print and AFTER you buy the product. I try to get a refund and call the number only for it to not even work, nice. So you get $40 legally stolen from you. Hope to prevent someone form going to this garbage website. This company is a scam and I hope it is shut down soon. Thanks Refurbished Electronics.

Do not pay them. I paid for mine 2weeks ago. Never got a tracking number, Order conformation nothing. They gave me 25/250 towards redeeming the xbox. Told me I had to write a 9 page essay to redeem 10 point towards it. Along with about 30 other tasks. The list would take about 6 months to do.

Takes your money then shows you unrealistic point system for whatever you order. Does not refund money, they say its for joining instead of what you purchased. Way to get ahold of them only given to members. When you call mailbox is full and if you email, no response from them.

On 07/29/2019 I ordered and paid $39.99 to Electronics Center for a Sony Workstation.; I expected to receive an email from the merchant stating they had received my order and were preparing to ship it. But instead I got an email with a link to their web site Electronics-members.com. After emails back and forth for a week trying unsuccessfully to get a shipping status, I told them to cancel my order and refund my payment. Then they sent an email informing me that my payment was for a "membership fee" and was not refundable; so I canceled my "membership" so they wouldn't have a pretext to continue charging me. As they suggested, I read their Terms and Conditions which stated that I would have to earn "points" by writing letters or filling out surveys to earn what I thought I had paid for.
This operation is a scam, with the scammer presenting himself as a legitimate vendor of electronic equipment. He should be closed down immediately before he can swindle more people.

I am now in the process of writing complaints to the State Attorneys General in all 50 states in the U.S., as I am determined to make sure as many people as possible are warned about it.

I am console player and I play on xbox one currently. I have been thinking about buying PS4 pro for sometime now. Rather than buying new one I though why not buy a used one. As I was searching online this website pop off out of nowhere. I saw the advertisement of PS4 pro for only $59. I instantly thought how can it be so low price for this product. I figured this must be a scam otherwise no in the right mind would sell you a PS4 or other products they have for only $ 59 dollar. I am glad I didn't fell for their scam. Then I search for their reviews and I find so many people falling for this scam. I would suggest doing a little research before trusting them with your information. Even their website seems suspicious. Please don't waste your money and time. Inform others about this website like I did. Please Stay Away from this scammer. I find it weird that it is located on US.

Hell no... I'm glad I always check reviews! There are just too many scans online, if you used credit card you have options to get credit back, never ever use cash or money order or bank debit

You just sit there waiting and waiting they are $#*!ing scam bites. THEY SHOULD GO TO HELL.

I didn't believe there were still this many dumb, gullible boobs out there. After all, the smartphone u used to "order" could have been used to spend ten seconds to Google the company and you would have seen it was an obvious scam, if the ludicrous low price wasn't already a dead giveaway. I can't believe so many people are *still* so gullible. This should be the age of enlightenment with all of the easy to get information on the web. I agree with another reviewer. You all deserved it. A bunch of pinheads indeed.
