Verified purchase

Ordered a set of trailer bearings with races. They arrived when etrailer said they would and most importantly they fit.

Reason I chose this business:

Internet search

  • Booking.com

10/4/15

I have been using booking.com for more than 3 years and I have made dozens of reservations using their service. In most cases it has worked out well. I have stayed at some amazing places that I would probably not have found otherwise.

You do need to read the conditions of the booking carefully. And read the reviews, especially the recent ones. Be cautious using them if it is less than a week before your stay. I've had a couple of reservations canceled, by the hotel in this situation and it has been inconvenient. However booking.com did contact me and offered an alternative booking.

Part of the problem is that the "cancel for free" reservations allow travelers to overbook and then cancel in the last few days. This makes for a chaotic situation.

I would also caution travelers to use caution when booking at smaller establishments, and especially apartments. Finding the person who will give you the key can be time consuming, especially if you arrive after a long trip with a delayed flight after normal business hours.

On the plus site the range of choices available, the search features, the maps, and the reviews make booking.com a powerful tool for finding interesting places to stay. booking.com also keeps a history of where you stayed and when in your account which is nice if you are returning to a location.

On July 1st 2015 I ordered a Honda EU2000i Inverter Generator. Credit was charged the next day. Then silence and no generator. Two weeks later no communication and no generator. 3 weeks later still no communication. Call them. Phone rings forever. The guy who answers tells me the generator is out of stock and "should" be in stock at the end of the months. I ask for expedited shipping when it arrives. "No they don't do that" was the his response. His use of "they" is another warning flag.

Completely unacceptable experience and company.

7/22/2015 update
Called the company again and talk with a different sales person. Person was rude and unprofessional. Person claimed the last generator of this model was shipped 7/8/2015 and there were more than 40 generators to ship ahead of my order and they expected to get more from honda by the end of the month. I was told I could wait or cancel my order. I asked to cancel the order and get a refund. When I asked how long this would take and explained that I was asking because of the complaints I had read on this side, the sales person became agitated. I also explained that the order was placed through an institution with a legal department that does not tolerate unethical suppliers. He said it would just take a few minutes to cancel and order and issue a refund and hung up on me.

Later that day I received an email confirmation that the order was canceled and a refund had been issued. Not sure how this would have gone if this had been a sale to a private individual

I also noted that they currently have an F from the better business bureau and they no longer have a rating from google sales.

Don't waste your time or money with this company!

I am not a fan of China made items but time will tell.
