Website said all items ship for free
Website said all items ship for free. Bought Spectrum Backpack and I was told I need to pay $15. Customer service was no help. Just tell me how much I'm paying from start. Update: I just got a response from Mark scolding me 😀 Here is my response: This is my first time shopping with you guys. If this is the best you got it's unfortunate. I know what I what. The backpack I wanted was very specific. I don't want alternatives. Before my purchase I reached out to your customer service and was told there is nothing we can do. I can give you a name if you want. I saved the email. Then I made my purchase. If the Spectrum Backpack requires special packaging then say so on the website before checkout. The website states all shipping are free no exceptions. I am a loyal person. With these shady comments from Mark then I'm going to tell everybody I know about you guys and bottom line Don't buy from them. What you see on the website is different from what you pay at checkout especially for Spectrum. Terrible business practice. Now you get a zero from me. Also I will notify Better Business Bureau. Thanks. Also I just received the backpack. The packaging is the worst I have seen. This is what I paid $15. It was wrapped cheap, poor, not in box to protect the bag. So what is the point of telling me it comes in a special packaging. Looked cheap. I have photos if you want it. Terrible!!!

Dear Charles, Thank you for your feedback regarding the shipping cost for your recent backpack purchase. We would like to address your concerns and provide further clarification. The shipping cost associated with your backpack order is due to the special transport box required for this particular model. This backpack cannot be folded like some other models, necessitating a custom packaging solution to ensure the safe delivery of your product. This is standard practice for items that cannot be easily compacted, and we communicate this clearly to our customers. Upon reviewing your order, we found that we confirmed the shipping cost to you via email before you placed your order. It's puzzling, however, that you proceeded with the order despite having concerns about the shipping fee. We prioritize honest and open communication and are committed to providing you with all the necessary information for informed decision-making. If the shipping cost for this specific backpack did not meet your expectations, it would have been more prudent to reconsider your purchase or inquire about alternative options before completing the order. Sincerely, Mark Customer Service Specialist
