Soni Interiors AKA Rug King, needs to stop helping Danny-Daniel Lee Batterbee of dlb Flooring source 3118 Corrine Drive Orlando bait and switch people on flooring. tile, laminate, flooring, moldings, cabinets, Craigslist Sanford, Florida

Hello again Mr. Soni, The Craigslist thief Danniel Lee Batterbee of DLB Flooring source at 3118 Corrine DR. Orlando is at it again. He is selling your discontinued piano finish laminate claiming you are offering a 30 year warranty on it. Since you have not responded to the first post it can be assumed you are still doing business with this crook.

Since you discontinued that product for surface wear resistance issues (quality) perhaps you should offer to purchase back all your discontinued piano laminate he has left in stock so he can pay back the Exposito family the refund he owes them. They are the people he ripped off using your materials.

That way instead of Danny ripping more people off using your materials you can be responsible for helping to do the right thing for some people that got taken advantage of, even if you were not directly responsible for the offense. You could also take this time to explain to the public and the Exposito’s what exactly your warranty on their new Sonitex floor is.  You could also come out looking like a great stand up company instead of perhaps being a witness explaining your product and products warranty in court because of one of Daniels former tricked customers.

So what is your Warranty on your laminate products?

It’s not on the box or in the box. I am starting to think you are also a Craigslist conman. Wow, there are a bunch of you crooks spamming Craigslist on flooring. It appears you are actually helping people like Danny Batterbee and All Floors of Orlando Bait people with your materal.

One of my customers brought this to my attention, so I will respond here. Im sorry to hear about what DLB did to these people. It is unfair and he should refund all the money that was paid to him to his customers as he knowingly lied.

Hello Amit

I emailed you an anonymous email when I posted the original post and I was under the impression that the rippoff report contacts the companies through email after a blog is made about them or updated. Perhaps you were not ignoring this as I suspect, but the emails went to junk emails. Or perhaps it’s just that you spam Craigslist so much they were just lost in all the emails you must receive when your bad ads get flagged down.

Make no mistake every other business like you and DLB are not supposed to Spam craigslist or use picture ads it’s against the craigslist tou (rules). It is also against the rules for you to post anywhere other than in services. Services are where businesses like yours belong. Not in general for sale/materials. That is why your ads are flagged off by the Craigslist community.

By continuing to post on craigslist knowing that you are not supposed to shows what kind of business scruples your company has. By breaking the Craigslist rules you are obviously desperate but that doesn’t change the fact you are not supposed to be doing what you are doing on Craigslist. The economy is showing signs of recovery you will make it without spamming Craigslist with your bad ads. There are plenty of other advertising avenues for businesses like yours.

I will be honest here I expected a better reply from you then this. You have lots to do with DLB you are a distributor to Danny he has your sample boards in his shop (pictured) and has done plenty of business with you in the last two years. So I am left with no choice but to call B.S. on you.

Danny isn’t selling someone else’s materials and putting your name on the boxes. He is selling your materials with your name on the boxes.

Here is where you get shady. I spoke with you a while back you of coarse had no idea who you were speaking to and you claimed your products had a 10 year warranty. I was told by a different shop that caries your laminates that you used to tell people you offered a 30 year warranty just like Danny implies when selling your piano finish laminate.

Even though I think you are not telling the truth about doing business with Danny in the last two years I have to give you the benefit of the doubt. That would mean that he would have had no idea that you discontinued the piano laminate and not only does it not have a 30 year warranty like you used to claim but you are not even offering the 10 year warranty I was told you are now claiming. That would also mean that every person that has your product installed in their homes they are going to get screwed over if/when the product fails to perform as expected.  It looks like not only do you owe Danny money back but plenty of other people as well.

Like I said before you could do the a good thing and help save your reputation by offering on this blog to take back at the very  least your shady piano finish laminate so he can pay back at least something to someone he owes money to. He should be able to return any product of yours he has in stock.

 I asked posing as a potential customer not only what your warranty is but if laminate can be returned the response was “in unopened boxes and no restocking fee.” Of course I was more than likely told this just so you could make a sale. But I will hold you to it.

Now are you a man of your word? Or are you just another shady Craigslist spammer? I guess we will find out.

The truth is since you apparently do not have a real warranty every little shop and peon installer on Craigslist that sells your flooring materials claiming the warranty you claim is shooting themselves in the foot because if anything goes wrong o well right, blame it on the installer or shop for selling it to the customer with no legal binding warranty.

So I guess you would be taking advantage of every customer that walks through your doors.

It sort of looks like you are just as bad if not worse than Danny you just rip people of differently.

So again Mr. Soni what is your warranty???  And are you a man of your word???

Soni Interiors is not helping me bait and switch people!!!  i dont even sell their products anymore..  Yes i did when i first opened the business up, but i quit selling their materials after i got the first complait!!!  i sell armstrong, shaw, mohawk, southland, daltile, mannington, anderson and more of the first quality materials,by the top of line brands....

So again i dont use Mark anymore and Luis does not work here as well, so get your story straight before you go and bad mouth people for trying to make a living.. so again why dont you quit hiding behind your computer and tell us who you really are???  if not then i will just assume your just another flooring store trying to make yourself look good..

NO. Last month you were selling the discontinued sonitex piano finish laminate that you purchased off Soni. You publically tried to sell it on Craigslist claiming a 30 year warranty.  That is fraud.

On this rip off report about you

 http://www.ripoffreport.com/carpet-tile-stores/dlb-flooring-source/dlb-flooring-source-at-3118-co-8e2c2.htm

You claim

“i dont sell anything here without a warr from the manufactors!!!!!!!!!  the pictures on my listing are from suncrest with a 15yr warr!!!!  everything i sell is first quality!!!!”

Then Danny why did you claim it had the old Soni 30 year warranty and not the 15 year warranty that Suncrest offers on their generic laminate products? This picture I will repost again from your Craigslist ad is showing Soni Inferiors sample boards in your shop.  

Yes you do have brand name sample boards that you use to bate people with before you switch it out with the generic laminates and tiles you also sell. Not long ago before they stopped working with you because of stuff like this started becoming public you did have those shady installers working with you. Even they had to separate themselves from you!

Perhaps I need to be contacting them to get there side of the story. See what they have to say about you.

On this very report post #3 even Amit Soni your distributor for this inferior product is calling you a liar!!  

And so am I, along with so many others. That can be read about you here on this link.

I have nothing to gain from this other than the satisfaction of exposing what looks like a ring of consumer fraud happening on and off Craigslist.  It has been easy and entertaining so far. What do you think would happen if I actually put a little time and effort into it?

Interesting that soni never came back with a good answer to his nonexistent warranty. He instead spent much money and had his team of craigslist spammers/scammers spend many hours burying my ripoffreport under pages of review sights with good reviews left by them. That was just a waist of their time. They should have addressed the actual problem. Instead of giving me more avenues to inquire about and post their fake warranty!

Durk,

Dear Greg: After years of saving, my husband and I decided to build a dream home — a timber-frame home, really unique, with Douglas fir beams throughout. Wood floors were a natural complement. In June, after searching as far as Miami to get the best price, we decided to buy local at DLB Flooring on Corrine Drive in Orlando. Owner Danny Batterbee promised to beat any price. The total cost for 2,800 square feet of solid oak flooring was around $12,500. His associate came to
measure and I asked him about Danny since I was a little wary of a small business. He gave Danny glowing reports. I made a deposit of $2,500.
Right before it was time to install the wood, I went down to the supplier's warehouse to make sure it was what I had ordered. I also asked about Danny and they vouched for him as a businessman. Satisfied that everything was in order, I gave Danny a check for the balance on Aug. 3. When the day arrived for installation — no wood! It turns out
that Danny never paid the supplier for the wood — either the deposit or the balance. He claims that the state of Florida has taken the money because he did not pay sales tax. Each day for the past two months we have hoped and prayed that Danny would do the right thing. So far our prayers have gone answered. KATHLEEN ROY ORLANDO

Dear Kathleen: Sometimes it takes less-than-divine intervention. I left Danny several emails and phone messages, and he got back to me with this response: "I'm working on getting their money or wood to them and they know that. I've already given them $2,500 back. So do what you want to do, but I plan on taking care of them." I sent Danny a similar complaint a couple of years ago and he ultimately took care of it, so I'm optimistic this also will end well. Knock on solid
oak.

Why is this ripoffreport here?  Did Soni steal anything from anyone?  Has it been proved in a criminal court in Seminole county?  No.  The truth is, Soni receives high marks on the google review page.  People who KNOW Ashok and Amit know that they are honest business people.  

When are people as a society going to stop publicly slandering other businesses without due process?  
The fact of the matter is no one cares, Durk, or Dork, or whatever the hell your name is.  Oh, I'm sorry, Duke.  Are you from Hazard County by chance?  Seen Boss Hog around?  How about Daisy?  DO you have all of your teeth?  Are you Cooter?

Stop slandering the good people at Soni.  

Love Thy Neighbor then you go on to name call. Soni distributed to Danny-Daniel Lee Batterbee of dlb Flooring source

3118 Corrine Drive Orlando. Soni's materials were used in bait and switch scams on people looking for name brand flooring.
