What To Do: Getting Ripped Off By SaferWholesale

First, if you decide to do business with this company, be
Prepared to get scammed. Use Google to read reviews from the BBB and
Others. Also, this company was sued by the Attorney General of Illinois
In 2015 for fraudulent and deceptive practices. Look it up. Here is a
Brief description of my experience: I googled the model # of a Dual
Purpose motorcycle I wanted looking for the best buy. "DB-41H-250
Motorcycle". There was a link to SaferWholesale with the bike priced at
$1479. It was label as a "Saber DB-41H-250". I purchased it using my
Credit Card (ALWAYS use a Credit Card in case of problems down the line)
And was issued a receipt on the website and email. The following day I
Received a voicemail from SaferWholesale to contact them about shipping.
I called and was told the bike was not listed on their website and how
Did I order it. I told the person I had used Google and he did the same
Search finding the link to the bike. He then told me they could not sell
Me the bike because it didn't exist on their website. I asked him, "If
It doesn't exist how did I manage to pay for it and get a receipt?". He
Was flustered and handed the phone to another person. It was the owner,
Gary Briden. Mr. Briden said they could send the same bike but the name
Had changed to the Hawk 2. I agreed to this. What's the difference in a
Name change, I thought? Well, they also charged me an additional $125
And sent me a different receipt. I did NOT authorize a $125 charge to my
CC. This was a classic Bait & Switch tactic which they are known
For. I contacted my CC company and a dispute was filed.
SaferWholesale even shipped the bike after my dispute was filed. They
Did have the shipment turned around before it was delivered to me. Now I
Got a FULL REFUND. You need to protect yourself from these con artists. Here's how I did it:

1- Pay by Credit Card (NOT Debit or bank draft)
2- Screenshot ALL info of the transaction - website page w/ price, pictures, receipt, etc.
3- Save emails and voicemails. Contact should be done by email for printed proof.
4- File a complaint with the BBB. They seem to respond to complaints.
5- File a complaint w/ the Attorney General of Illinois. Google it to get
The website. It takes a little time and you can upload all the info to
Them. They have several cases on SaferWholesale at this point.
6- Be patient. We need to get crooks like these out of business... FOREVER!

Best advice is to NOT BUY FROM THEM, PERIOD.
