I wasn't sure if you read it right,but I was talking about the internet site. Here's the site that associated with your bestbowling.com:
===========================================================================
BEACH BOWL,
BEST BOWLING,ALL AMERICAN BOWLING and BOWLING XXX are all the same.
As Of March 2003 they have put up another website called INTERNET BOWLING SUPPLIES.(see post about owner below)
They may have a different address but they are all run by the same person.
Oscar who answers the phone is the father in law of the owners wife and they are in financial trouble so STAY AWAY!!!
The reason he has 4 sites is that people get mad at one site and order from another without knowing that they are all the same since those are dummy addresses.
What you don't see here is the 8 months of replies that have been rumbling on through this particular post. Most of the replies have since been erased, but you can see that there have been well over 150 replies to this item here. It has definitely been a hotbed of discussion, and "the Mezz" keeps it bumped up to the top of the display for new members to see (since most of the new member's default settings are for only a 7 day window).
If you have been ripped off by any of these, please report them to the Internet Fraud Complaint Center at:
http://www1.ifccfbi.gov/index.aspThis website is a partnership between the FBI and the National White Collar Crime Center.
Even if you got your money back, please report them. It will help in getting their websites closed down
Below is about BEST BOWLING from the BBB and you can click on the link for more information.
"Due to the volume and failure of the company to respond to consumer complaints, we are now forwarding all complaints to the Arkansas Attorney General's office. They may be reached at 501-682-2341 or 1-800-482-8982.
http://www.arkansas.bbb.org/common.html?location=/home/common/www/mis67/report.php&bureau=lilrock&compid=4000057Also since posts do not stay up here I haved put up some previous posts for everyone's information and they are listed below:
For those who got burned like myself here are some address I came up with. BEACH BOWL PRO SHOP 2452 Augusta Dr. Kenner Louisana, DEEP SOUTH BOWLING SUPPLY 1 Monte Carlo Dr. Kenner Louisana. I used Knowx.com to find this information. When I entered the information for BEACH BOWL & ALL AMERICAN it came up DEEP SOUTH BOWLING SUPPLY. Here's a phone number.504-467-0248. I've already talked to some one there. He said their just a supplier and their not connected to any of these. I know he's lying. He also said that the owner David Sherman had died and they were going out of business, but when you call and ask for him he's not in and they'll give him the message. I to have notified the Attorney General and the BBB of Louisana. We'll see what happens.
Well it looks like they have changed their name to DHS Marketing.
Same area code as DEEP SOUTH BOWLING SUPPLY and I called and got an answering machine that said it you wanted to get in touch with David to call the cell number.
David is alive and well boa-c
No one has died as I have checked this out.
Just a ploy on Deep South's part as they have been found out.
They had too many chargebacks with the other companies and their credit card company cut them off so they changed the company name to DHS Marketing as crooks always find a loophole.
I know that the BEST BOWLING PRO SHOP is NOT located in Little Rock, because a good friend of mine (who lives near Little Rock) went searching to have a face to face chat with them there, and he found that the advertised address was bogus.
I too have been had by BEACH BOWL PRO SHOP. Ordered a bag for 79.95 got nothing. Called and Called. Answering machine, busy signal, no e-mail replys, was in FLA. went to the address on Osceola Pkwy it is a mailing center in a shopping center. I think the name on the building was Mailboxes Etc. something like that. I AM SO P***ED
Please Check the BBB and Stay away from ALL AMERICAN BOWLING. The company is a mail box only at a mail box extra place in Delaware. Plus the company is not licenced!!! in that state to conduct business. This is a Scam Site!!. Please don't be fooled by the low pricing
If you were able to check out the mailing addresses for all 4 of these "Pro Shops" (or should I say con artists?), you will find that all 4 have ficticious addresses. We have covered all 4 of the supposed addresses by having posters who live nearby checking the locations, and there isn't a Pro Shop at any of the 4 locations. Since these "businesses" won't even disclose their true location, why should they worry about customer service?
I bowl with a fellow who's daughter ordered a pair of shoes from Beach Bowl well over a year ago. They were very quick to charge her debit card, but even after a full year, she has not received her shoes or her money back yet! At least with a credit card purchase, you have a little bit more leverage in your favor (versus a debit card).
Well I guess David is alive as this came from Verisign domain registration.
