On September 29, 2006 I won a very expensive item from Bidz.com for very little money. On October 3, I paid for this item.
On October 5, I got a call from Paul a customer relations agent and was told that my item was damaged and could not be repaired, exchanged, nor replacement found with suppliers. Hmmmmm, sounds fishy, doesn't it?
During this converstion, I was told there were two diamonds missing; at the end of our conversation there were four diamonds missing. Hmmmmm interesting!!!
When do you win a $9249.00 USD diamond ring from Bidz.com for only $222.20 USD?
I am entitled to my own opinion, and this is it: Bidz.com did not allow me the right to pay $222.20 for a $9249.00 diamond ring I rightfully won.
If this diamond ring was indeed defective, why did Bidz.com put it up for bidding without inspecting it first?
I find this practice very desceptive, dishonest, and a total RIP_OFF.

#1 UPDATE Employee
Damaged Items
AUTHOR: Felicia - (U.S.A.)
SUBMITTED: Friday, October 13, 2006
After lengthy investigation, it was found that items may be damaged during storage, packing or shipping which would explain why it still went up for auction. Luckily, it was inspected before it was shipped and we had the opportunity to notify the customer. Had we shipped the defective merchandise, it would have resulted in a return for faulty merchandise. Either way, it seems, this case would have ended up in a complaint. We do sincerely regret this order was not processed and shipped as usual.
If at all we can ever prevent a customer receiving damaged goods, we will take any steps necessary to correct the situation.
The fact that the compare price (which is NOT a retail price or a reflection of value, *see past posts and our Help section for more info*)was so high is inconsequential. The bottom line was that it was damaged and the rep was instructed to call to keep the customer informed.
If this were a case of shady dealings, we might not have contacted the customer directly, issued the refund and offered no explanation for the reversed transaction. On the contrary, however, an explanation was provided as well as a refund of ALL fees.
