pga golf direct If the fastest growing economy in the world is based on the sort of dishonesty displayed by this mob god help us all!! Hai Nan Guang Xong Han Yuan 1723, China, Internet

Having stumbled across this company, who give no indication of their physical whereabouts on their web page, I foolishly ordered a pair of Ecco golf shoes from them.

The money was promptly withdrawn from my bank account and I received an email conforming the order and promising prompt delivery. This at least proved to be the case. A pair of shoes were delivered within seven working days, to my surprise and delight.

Upon opening the package however my delight turned to bewilderment. I had been sent a pair of golf shoes which were not Ecco, but instead purported to be Adidas. A cursory examination of the product revealed that these shoes weren't Adidas either. Although they did carry some Adidas branding they failed display everything one might expect to find on a Adidas product.

I immediately notified the company that they had sent me the wrong shoes. Their reply, although apologetic, raised more concerns for me than answered questions. I pointed out that the shoes they had sent were not only not what I had ordered but were a fake product in any case. At this point a denial might have been expected, what I was invited to do was send photos of the shoes they had sent and images of the shoes I wanted so that their manufaturer could make things right.

I replied explaining that I did not want fake shoes of any description and I demanded my money back. The company were initially evasive and I sent a number of emails explaining statutory consumer rights and so on. Eventually the company agreed to refund my money and asked me to return the fake Adidas shoes. I told them by return that when the money was refunded I would despatch the shoes.

And that is where this story ends - they have failed to refund my money and I am apparently stuck with a pair of fake plastic Adidas golf shoes.
