Purchased a new, damaged box, Sharkninja-ix140h-cordless-pet-stick-vacuum. The item arrived in used condition, damaged, and missing the charging block and cord. VIP Outlet approved a return and refund. Item was returned. No refund was issued within the 10-business day period. A claim was filed with PayPal. A refund was issued the following day. Each step of the process, from receipt of the damaged item to refund, was a disappointment and more difficult than necessary.

Stay away from these bozos
Stay away from these bozos - literally ordered something 2 weeks ago and needed it today and it still hasn’t even been shipped. Messaged them multiple times on eBay and no response. I don’t know how they are still in business.

Totally a and utterly disordered and mismanaged situation: a muddled mess or a situation that is chaotic, contentious, or unpleasant to an excessive or absurd degree.
As a career manager and designated leader in several situations I feel a need to explain a definition of “good service” I learned in graduate school. I have a Masters Degree in Leadership and Management from Columbia University in NYC. I have been in important leadership positions where providing excellent service was required because errors in premium service could result in serious consequences.
The researched best definition of desirable and exemplary service is simply:
Do the right thing, the right way, the first time.
To achieve that level of service, the management team must use input from consumers to learn of weaknesses in the service delivery flow and fix elements that cause disfavor.
The Right Thing
Get a security camera ordered from E-Bay for $37 + taxes to me the customer
The Wrong Way
1. Allowed an automated order processing system to assign a $37 item to a “signature required” delivery requirement
2. List VIPOUTLET as the seller in the web presence
3. List The Recon LLC as the seller on the Customer Order Form
4. Display Walmart as the seller on the delivered package
5. Permeate the seller misinformation to FedEx
RESULT
This simple order of a small item became a complex and utterly disordered and mismanaged situation: a muddled mess or a situation that is chaotic, contentious, or unpleasant to an excessive or absurd degree.
There are the slang definitions of two informal and vulgar nouns considered improper to print. Therefore, I will provide partial terms to suggest these inappropriate words to avoid violating your sense of improper language .

Awful experience with this company
Awful experience with this company. Ordered an air conditioner on eBay and it showed I would receive within 4 days, which was great. However there was never any update on the tracking and by the second day of no messages returned by this company I asked them to cancel the order. Two days later they said they could not cancel it... it had NEVER SHIPPED so there was no reason not to cancel. Meantime over ten days later they have not sent the item, not refunded my money and just sent a notice they were shipping and sent a tracking # which UPS shows was only generated by VIP and the item was not picked up. Again, I told them to cancel and refund. They ignore all emails. I was able to call eBay and explain all of this and they said that I was covered under moneyback guarantee of the orig delivery date they did not meet. I also contacted my credit card company and disputed the charge from VIP. This company is a complete disaster with beyond poor customer service that ignores you. Beware - I have had nothing but aggrevation since I placed the order.

If I could give negative stars!
If I could give negative stats that’s exactly what they would get! Received a portable dvd player that supposedly came with a warranty . Was never given warranty information and when it broke less than a month after receiving was told to return for a replacement so I did and it’s now been a month since they received it and I still don’t have a replacement! Claims they’ve “escalated” the issues 4x now and still nothing. Awful awful company!

Don't shop here
I bought two brand new air conditioners in damaged boxes from Vipoutlet on eBay. Nobody bothered to inspect the items before shipping as both were severely damaged. Just trying to return the two units has been such an ordeal and I will never use this company again on eBay or Walmart.
