Mark Christensen , Rockford Construction / Rockford Auction Advertises "pristine" Laboratory Cabinetry, then ships rusted, corroded junk Rockford Illinois

We saw this listing running on eBay..and in fact is is still running http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=160211130482&ssPageName=STRK:MEWA:IT&ih=006

We contacted the seller offline to discuss whether they sold the cainets in different configurations etc., and were told yes they did. We then sent them our requirements, received a quote, including shipping from Illinoise to California. As the photos the seller uses depicted near-new condition cabinets we asked how they would be shipped. The seller assured us they would be crated and packed for long haul transport. So, we agreed upon a price and wired the money into their account. At first they told us they had two bank accounts one that fed another...this was the first red flag, so we opted to have them give us one to wire the money into. The 2nd red flag was that leading up to the wire transfer, email responses were crisp and swift in reply. As soon as they received the money, it took days and days to get any email replies, phone calls were always answered by a voicemail. After 3 weeks and emails assuring us the cabinets were only waiting for the tops of the crates to be affixed, the cabinets were shipped and we got a tracking number. The shipment arrived not in crates but cabinets stacked on top of one another strapped with pallet strapping. The cabinets were not only not new, they were bent, rusted, corroded and basically junk. WATCH OUT for this guy he is a criminal con artist. We have filed a action with the Attorney General's office in Chicago, and they are well into their investigation of this con man. Turns out there are numerous victims. DO NOT buy anything from this company.
