TriStar Products Inc fraudulent ripoff business/ victimized many consumers Parsippany New Jersey

On 02/02/2003 I saw the advertisement for the Pasta Pot Express. It was being advertised for $14.99. I thought that would be a great price to pay. I went to their web site to order.

Once you click on order you start to see all of the charges add up. For the one pot that is $14.99 you have to pay $7.95 for shipping/handling.It then asks if you would like the FREE accessory package which includes the Personal Pasta Pot, Pasta spoon, Deluxe cheese grater,& Handy chopper.The catch is that you have to pay $9.99 for shipping.

So by the time you are done ordering your total is at $32.93. These people have to be some of the worst ripoff artists because when my items arrived they were all in one box. So they actually charged me $17.94 for shipping and handling of the one box that probably could have been shipped for $9.99.

The real nightmare starts when you start to cook with it. After the first couple of uses the coating on the insides of the pots began to peel off.It then began to rust very badly.I just got the number for their cusomer service and will be calling to see what kind of responce I get. I only others will not fall for the same thing that I did.
