They sent me a bogus tracking number. I received a package which didn't use this company name. It had 2 ugly sunhats in it. I ordered 2 sets of folding storage cubes for almost $60. They conveniently gave me a valid tracking number which showed the package (ugly sun hats I didn't order) was delivered. When I told them I had not received the items I ordered, they just kept telling me the package was delivered. Just another rip-off operation in China. Don't do business with them.

They sent me a text message saying I owed $49.95 to "Coastal imaging". The link in the text is, of course, a link to a fake "login site" where they ask for your DOB. They list their contact number as *******131. An automated system says "Thank you for contacting you doctor's billing office" and puts you on hold. They constantly give you the option to "keep your place in line" and have someone call you back.

I know better than to give them anything because I worked for almost 5 years in a REAL physicians' billing company. If I hadn't gotten bored listening to their horrid quality prerecorded blather, I was going to basically just badger the hell out of them and jack with whoever answered the phone basically giving them BS answers and demanding that THEY prove to ME that they really had pertinent billing data like a date of service and service location. Then, if I could get them riled up, drop the "hey a-hole I'm a REAL medical biller so I just riled you up for my own amusement" on them. Alas, I have the attention span of a coked up ferret and just grew bored. This "company" is actually mention by name (and owner) on several scam track sites. So, unless you want to play bait the scammers, don't bother with it. I'm just reporting them and blocking them at this point.

Being as I'm a poor, disabled artist, I've bounced around to different, supposedly cheaper web hosting and domain name registry services over the years. But I keep coming back to Bravenet. They are a little more expensive than a lot of services, but you also get a LOT more for the price. They don't get you with tons of stupid upgrades and they don't try to upsell you constantly. Their server downtime is minimal. They alert you when they'll be doing server maintenance.

I'm on the basic Bravenet Pro plan. They gave me a permanent discount so I'm only paying $11 a month (in three month blocks). I get unlimited storage and bandwidth. I can make as many sites and use as many domains or subdomains as I want. Their site builder tool is easy to use. I also get access to all of their Pro Web Tools with no ads or branding on them; this includes forums, email lists, guestbooks, password protect, etc. You also get access to a lot of theme templates if you want to throw something together quickly without wasting a lot of design time. While there are some limits in how many mailing list subscribers you can have or how many photos in a photo album and the like, this isn't an issue for me since my site is small and doesn't have a huge following. For those who need higher limits on those things, they can upgrade from the basic Pro plan to plans with higher limits.

Overall, on the very few occasions I've had to contact support, they were polite, listened closely when I told them what I had already done to try and fix things and, if it was something they could do on their end, fixed things immediately. If it wasn't on their end, they were good about helping me figure out what I had done to bungle things up.

I don't think I'm going to bother trying to find a cheaper service because it's looking like you get what you pay for. Most of the supposed "top 10 web hosting companies" I see listed online in various places (almost always the same companies, just in different order) claim really low prices but seem to have paid a promotion company to write those articles because most of them have really bad reviews from the users citing being overcharged, having to pay extra for services that were supposedly included, having poor customer service, constant spamming trying to get users to upgrade, lots of server downtime, etc. With Bravenet, I don't get all of those hassles.

I get all of my medications through Walgreens. Their interface is very easy to use and they are very good about alerting me if there's an issue with one of my scripts.

The online part of the pharmacy runs well. The wait time at drop-off and pick-up in person... well, not so much. The one I go to on Rt 88 in Brick, NJ often has long lines both in the drive-through and inside and you sometimes are waiting 20 minutes just to pick up something that's ready or to drop off your paper script with them. They could use a bit more speed on the face-to-face end of things.

Caught this site selling my original art without permission. Suspect a lot more being stolen there as well. Don't support the thieves!

Already verified stolen art from Wolf Krusemark Art and there are a lot of familiar looking designs from timed tee sites and other venues there as well. Do not buy from this site. They are art rippers and do not have permission to print any of the pop culture and other images on their site!

I'd give them no stars at this point. I've been in their affiliate program for a while via ShirtMoney.com and they aren't paying me commissions earned. They don't answer support tickets from the help site. Some of the supposed support staff emails come back as undeliverable. I'm seeing other affiliates and customers who are also having trouble with them on their FaceBook page for BlueBoxTee.com. I've even contacted the owners through their FB pages (the only contact info for them listed on the site) with no luck. BEWARE! They seem to be a pit of bad business practices! Update 7/8/15: Just got a message from the wife of one of the artists whose designs are being sold by this company and she indicated they owe her husband almost a thousand dollars in unpaid shirt sales and are not responding to communications at all. So they aren't just ripping off consumers, they are ripping off the artists as well. Stay far away from anything related to ShirtMoney!
