They sold us all broken and returned junk. This company has not given us any credit and has stated that the merchandise was indeed misrepresented. The Sales Manager has admitted to selling us a bad truck but Buy Lotz and its owner Samuel Pires has yet to make good on their promise of a credit or return of my money. This company has a history of doing this and are just plain outright out to take advantage of people and scam local businesses. Please Stay away from Samuel Pires and his father Rey. They will use God to sell you a bunch of dreams but when you recieve the merchandise it is badly misrepresented.

Samuel Pires and Rey who own Buy Lotz sold my company a truckload of what was supposed to be "shelf pulls" and new merchandise. When we received the truck it was all broken merchandise and returns. THere were alot of grooming and food appliances that had been used on this load. When confronted we were told by Rey that we would receive some type of credit and or reimbursement. 4 months later we have not received a dime from Buy Lotz and all the owner Samuel Pires wants to do is ignore my situation. They are outright theives and need to be stopped. They purchased a load from me and we in fact held the load until we could get a proper credit for the merchandise they sold to us and the money they stole. They have yet to do so. THis company is bad and they are only out to steal and misrepresent their merchandise. They stole $12,000 from us and now do not want to return it. 

They had the nerve to file a complaint against us when they are the ones who stole my money. This company deserves to be shamed and out of business.

READ THE TRUE STORY: Carlos actually stole $12K from our company

AUTHOR: Buylotz - (USA)

POSTED: Thursday, March 16, 2017

This report posted by Carlos Lopez from CLT Overstock is an absolute lie. He is the one who stole $12k from our company by scamming us. After 4 months without seeing our money back we advised him we were working with our lawyers to file a lawsuit against him and his company. He then became upset and filed this ripoff report completely making this case sound like he is the one ripped off. The truth is that he keeps telling us different stories now for 4 months and buying time. He knows how the legal system works and he is pushing this as far as he can go to refuse to refund our money.

We are now filing a lawsuit against him and his company. We have also been in contact with the NC Attorney General's office, the FBI, the Charlotte Mecklenburg Police Department, as well as our local Forest City Police Department. We also have 2 other victims indentified that have joined us to work on taking care of this issue with Carlos Lopez and his company CLT Oversotck. They have also bought merchandise from Carlos, paid upfront via bank wire transfer/credit card and never received the goods. One of them thankfully has asked for a chargeback with their credit card company and got their money back that way. The other one has lost about $10k. 

 

Here is the complete story: 

Carlos purchased a truckload of small appliances from us. We had it clearly advertised as customer returns, we had a sales agreement signed by Carlos with all the terms and conditions of the sale specifically saying this merchandise was being sold in "AS-IS" condition. He bought this merchandise for $12k and it actually had a retail value of over $60k... 

A month later he wanted to sell us a truckload of brand new diapers. We had a cusotmer for them so we ordered 2 truckloads of diapers from him. We asked to pay for 1 trucklaod so we could receive the merchandise and inspect before paying for the second load. Again, our relationship with Carlos and CLT Overstock was very new and we did not have confidence in him as a supplier yet. He pressured us to wire the moeny by that day or he would sell it to somoeone else, and we fell in his trap. 

After we sent the bank wire transfer in the amount of $12k we never received any merchandise. He told us many different reason why the trucklaod never delivered the goods. He said first the truck came but could not find our address and left and went back to the freight yard. Then he said they were attempting a second delivery a week later and that never happened (if you deal with truckload deliveries this never happens... we receive/ship 5-10 truckloads weekly at our of our facility in NC and never had anything like that happened before). We requested phone numbers for the trucking company and he gave us numbers that were disconecetd, so we confronted him about it and he gave us other numbers that were created on Google right then and nobody ever answered our calls. He gave us the name of the trucking company that didn't exist, the website of the trucking company he gave us was registered by him that same day we requested more info... anyway, it became clear he was scamming us. The truckloads never delivered anything to us again so he said they delivered to his warehouse in Charlotte. We had different people (he didn't know) go check the merchandise and there was nothing at his warehouse!!

Finally he then admitted he was holding our money because the truckload we sold him a couple months prior to all this was a bunch of junk. We have proof that it was not by the way, with photos and video footage of his entire truckload as it was being loaded on the truck that shipped to him, plus all the pitcures from his Facebook advertising he used to sell our merchendise to his customers. 

So after many weeks of our lawyers talking to him he wanted us to give him a credit of $5k so he would refund only $8k to us. First we denied doing that but after a few more weeks without any solution, we accepted the offer. We had our lawyer write a formal settlement agreement and send to him so we could both sign so he could refund us the $8k. He has not signed anything and won't answer his phone anymore. The only thing he has done is file this report here. 

 

Very sad we have to deal with people like that on the marketplace... But it is part of business and we will use the fullest extent of the law to remedy this. 

If you have any questions regarding this case, please don't hesitate to call us directly at +1(828)365-6505 and we will be glad to share all details with you. Judge for yourself, we have an incredible reputation, happy customers everywhere in the USA and abroad, we proud ourselves in our customer service, we take care of issues that happen because they do happen as we are in a world with humans - and trust me, they make mistakes. But the difference is how we handle it. 

Thank you so much for taking the time to read this.
