Paypal, why aren't you doing anything about this???  You have 68 complaints and counting over multiple years yet your company, my credit card company Citi and it seems may others aren't doing anything.  Cape Diablo has and continues to rip off more and more consumers day after day and NO ONE is helping!  Where is the consumer protection???  When is someone going to care and stand up for all of us??? ...

Cape Diablo STILL IN BUSINESS AND STILL A RIPOFF

This has been the absolute worst experience I've ever had with a merchant, and I'm not alone - BUYER BEWARE!! A simple google search will show you endless links to various sites where similar complaints are issued; some even mention calling the FBI. The same theme is repeated, extremely delayed shipping and refusal to refund. I ordered 4 bracelets on July 18th and received 3 of them by July 27th. The fourth one, I received about 1 month after ordering. I received no notice that the fourth one was delayed, it just showed up. I did not like 2 of the bracelets (Intense Emperor Jasper and Healing Rhodochrosite) because quite frankly, they looked and felt fake - they are light as a feather, perfectly cut and colored plastic "stones." I'm no gemologist but it doesn't take a degree to tell the difference between plastic and stone. On August 2nd I requested a refund stating it was not to my expectations. After 7 emails between the both of us, I have yet to receive return instructions. They've refuted my claims that the stones are fake, I've sent them photos as requested - not sure how that proves authenticity but ok - and I haven't heard back from them since; that was on August 7th. They are not honoring their return policy (copy and pasted below) and they only handle returns through email or chat, they don't offer a return process or address which makes it so that you literally can't try to return the item which in turn makes it difficult to dispute the charge on a credit card. I warned them multiple times that I would dispute the charge and share my bad experience - they've remained unresponsive and unhelpful. I have disputed the charge and I will post this review on every site I find - I've also contacted Instagram letting them know they're a fraud.
