Is blowitoutahere.com Safe?

Buying on the Internet just got worse. An online store selling Movies, Music, Games, Electronics, etc.and doing business under the name of "Blowitoutahere" engages in practices so underhanded, it boggles the imagination. They have a "store" online, also do business through eBay and I've read somewhere they also have a presence on Amazon. They have a FaceBook page as well. No matter what or where the jumping off point is, BEWARE of any online location bearing the name "Blowitoutahere" and be especially wary of their eBay presence. On ***** I ordered 15 DVD's and 1 CD from them. They have a shipping policy which states they will charge $2.99 for the first item and $1.50 for each item thereafter. That's expected when buying just a few items but when you're buying in quantity those shipping charges become out of hand and are far too high to pay so I wrote them before the sale and asked them to adjust those charges to reflect a more fair & accurate shipping cost. There is not a vendor on eBay that refuses such requests! In fact, several times a vendor has issued me a credit on shipping without being asked to do so! I felt confident, therefore, that adjusting shipping charges would not be an issue with Blowitoutahere. To complicate matters, eBay has a policy that once items are in your shopping cart, and a buyer wishes to have an invoice sent to them outlining the total charges for a purchase, the buyer becomes responsible for purchasing those items no matter what the seller's answer is! I had never had an issue with shipping credits so I went ahead and paid the bill as it stood. I still felt confident Blowitoutahere would do the right thing in this matter. They sent an invoice indicating a shipping price of $25.49. This was not at all a discounted shipping price but reflected their full charge on shipping as indicated on their eBay listing! I wrote them again and informed them that my package, weighing 3.4 lbs. would cost them exactly $3.88 via Media Mail to ship and that further adjustments should be made in this case. In the meanwhile I called eBay and told them of the situation. I was told they would speak with the owner and get this straightened out since this seller had ignored eBay policies on charging reasonable shipping for purchases. In the meanwhile, and before getting anything straightened out with me, I received a notice on ***** that my items had shipped out that day! The shipping charges had still not been adjusted nor had I heard from them on the issue. Now I was forced to wait for the delivery. On ***** I got another notice saying that my items had been shipped on 10-07-2013! I wondered why they had issued two notices saying the same thing but on different dates! Which was it...the 4th or the 7th? More important was why they had shipped this order without communicating with me and having me OK the final charges! All in all I sent over a half dozen emails which were never addressed. It seemed they had me on permanent "Ignore" and they were not going to change their mind about the gross overcharge in shipping charges and that was that. I wrote and told them I would, upon receipt, mark the package refused and have it sent back to them. On ***** I did a search online on Blowitoutahere and came up with their regular store here online. I did not know they had such a presence outside of eBay. The prices on the items I had ordered were the same (all fairly high end) and I put them all into their shopping cart which then gave me a price of $15.84 on shipping! It was still high but it was $10.00 less then I had been charged on eBay for the same items from the same seller! Not only that, but Blowitoutahere also offered a 15% discount coupon for any purchase over $25.00! My purchase was over $175.00 so I more than qualified for the discount! So, not only was their shipping $10.00 cheaper but that 15% discount reflected an additional savings of almost $25.00! That afternoon I finally received a note from Blowitoutahere. I took the message to be from the owner since it was quite detailed in its response. In essence he told me he was justified in charging $25.49 in shipping because it offset his overhead nicely! I wrote back informing him that I had just found his regular online store and told him what the calculations were on his site! I also informed him that no business should inflate shipping charges to that extent in order to offset overhead. In business, one does that in adjusting the price of the item and not through shipping! This is not a normal business practice. How could he refuse a legitimate request for a shipping reduction now that the cat was out of the bag as far as what they charged for shipping on their own site? All this time I thought that since I was on eBay, I was dealing with a small storefront...a small business...a Mom & Pop storefront if you will. I have since learned that Blowitoutahere is owned by Alliance Entertainment LLC and bills through DirectToU, LLC which they probably own as well! I don't know the answers to any of the problems I have shared with you about this terrible vendor except to say they don't give a damn about this miniscule transaction. Why should they when thousands more will buy from them without ever first reading about their shoddy and shady tactics and realizing who they really are. I can only tell you, in the strongest of terms, to BUY ANYWHERE ELSE...BUT NOT FROM THIS VENDOR!
