Something just ain't right with this web site. I find it to be very suspicious. It has its' own web address: http://www.stgemmagalgani.com but for some reason it bears the badge of *****. Regardless of this fact when you click on the that Blogger favicon in the left of the address bar to get an identity overview (on FireFox at least) you get this message: "This web site does not supply identity information. Your connection to this web site is not encrypted." All of this would not mean much except for the fact that this website is not just educational or for entertainment. It is also trying to sell you something. Namely the "St Gemma website complete package offer " which the site identifies as a collection of several black & white photos, a booklet, a pamphlet of prayers, a prayer card and a medal; all of Saint Gemma Galgani. This package is priced at $17.00 plus $2.50 Shipping & Handling for a total of $19.50; $21.50 outside the U.S. Now this is peculiar for several reasons. The first of which is this: Assuming that this web site is indeed a part of Blogger; I've never heard of Blogger nor any other blogging site selling anything. Probably the main thing that arouses my suspicions about this site is the method that it employs to conduct the sales transaction(s) for this so called "St Gemma website complete package offer ". First of all the sites' text does not refer to the $19.50 (or $21.50 outside the U.S.) as a payment but rather as a "donation". I hate to state the obvious here but giving money in exchange for goods and/or services is not a donation, it's a payment. To me that just smacks of some loophole/technicality. Where if people do not receive the "St Gemma website complete package" that they paid for and then complain about it they might be told that the web site proprietor was/is not obligated to send them one because "technically" they did not "pay" for anything but rather they made a "donation" and it even said "donation" on both the web site itself and on Pay Pal. Which brings me to another salient point. This web site that is trying to sell you something has no embedded payment feature of its' own. What it has is a "donate" button which does not actually work. When you click on it nothing happens. The site states that you can also click on a link that takes you to a Pay Pal Donate Account that actually does work. So this web site relies on Pay Pal as a third party to take payments that it calls "donations" rather than payments. Something isn't right there. It just isn't. But what really jumped out to me is this that I have copied and pasted directly from this web site itself: "Or, those in the U.S.A. who prefer to use the mail may send American cash, personal check or money order, well hidden in an envelope to: Glenn Dallaire 42 Crown St. Bristol, CT 06010 When ordering, please be sure to include your current mailing address. Please feel free to email me at ***** if you have any questions." I wish there were some way that I could have highlighted the word cash there. First off I think only a fool would be dumb enough to just send money in any form to some guy in Connecticut. However the "send American cash" part is what really leaped off the page and clinched it for me. I mean not only does that phrase just sound "scamish" but I, like many people, was taught never to trust anything that entails having you sending cash to anyone, anywhere and also never to send cash through the mail. This web site purports to also sell some other Saint Gemma Galgani themed merchandise and/or "packages". But the payment situation with them and the general peculiarity of the site itself remain the same. Also I must go back to this "donation" issue. I mean really "Donate"? Donate to who? Donate to what? What is or will the money "donated" go to support. Nowhere in this web site was I able to locate the name or any information on any charitable organization or not-for-profit group. Just a photo that is supposed to be of the guy, Glenn Dallaire, named in the above street address where you're supposed to "send American cash" to. I guess he is supposed to be the person who owns and/or runs this web site. Well I doubt that he himself is a 501 (c) organization. Even if he were; just as I have never seen or heard of Blogger nor any other blogging site selling anything, I have also never seen or heard of them soliciting or accepting any kind of charitable donations. Assuming once again of course that this site is indeed a part of Blogger. Since you can not get an identity overview of this web site I'm really not sure that it is. The lack of verifiable web site I.D., the peculiarity of a Blogger site selling merchandise. the referring to payments for merchandise as "donations, "the non-working "Donate button", the Pay Pal Donate Account, the solicitation of cash "donations" through the mail, the conspicuous lack of information about what your "donation" will support manifested by the absence of any kind of 501(c) organization listed on the web site, the peculiarity of a Blogger site soliciting/accepting "donations" of any kind and the inability to verify the sites affiliation with blogger.com all combine to make this web site very suspect to me. I honestly would never try to buy anything off of this website and I do not recommend anyone else do so either. I also recommend that you avoid sending any money via any method in regards to this site. Simply put I do not trust this web site and neither should you I think. So I'll end this review just as I started it. Something just ain't right with this web site.I find it to be very suspicious.
