I hardly ever go on FB and sure enough by coincidence that Sam Ash ad popped up. I knew I had been duped when the payment was made with no tax or shipping costs. Another thing, and I know better, but my eagerness to get the piece of gear I have wanted for a long time got the best of me, was the original price of the item was incorrect. Major red flag! What’s worse is when I went to check the order with the confirmation number with Sam Ash of course it didn’t exist! Once the charge went through the payment was listed to Erik [removed] . I’m trying to keep positive by telling myself it could have been worse. If $129.99 is the cost of a lesson learned I’ll take it and chalk it up to experience. I’m going to report it to the credit card company and PayPal then shut the card down today. Yes, it’s true as other replies have stated, the charge needs to go through before it can be disputed. However making the call sooner than later will still document the complaint early on. Once the charge goes through, which will probably be today anyway, I’ll file the formal complaint. People can say what they want about old cliches, but they’re so spot on; “If it sounds too good to be true, it probably isn’t true!” In this case it definitely wasn’t and I was scammed!
