"Everybody likes free stuff, and Cheaper Than Dirt! delivers."
Of course, they've also been known to dig up credit card numbers from old orders and charge/ship hundreds of dollars of stuff that wasn't ordered, and ignore phone calls and emails saying to stop it. Which is why I stopped doing business with them. Didn't help that when I finally did get them to respond, their answer was, "Oh, just go through the boxes, and if there's anything you don't want to keep, ship it back and we'll give you credit on your next purchase."
My answer to that last was, "I didn't order any of it, and I don't want any of it. I won't even allow it in my house and it's about to rain, so you people better get someone here to pick it up fast. There will never, ever be a 'next purchase', and I've filed a complaint with my state attorney general." Once I brought the AG into it, they suddenly decided to send me a prepaid return shipping label; up to then, they were expecting me to ship it back at my own expense.
(A big part of the problem was that I had used a debit card rather than credit -- even then, I avoided credit when possible --and that sudden several hundred buck ding in my bank balance caused a lot of trouble they never made right.)
That sucks, Bear. A friend advised using a pre-paid credit card for mail order purchases. Don't know if that would work in the case you described. One wonders if the credit card company would go to bat for someone in a case like you mentioned.
Apparently, CTD is hated by a number of people. I've had bad experiences with other vendors. Haven't purchased from CTD for probably a decade, but had no complaints when I did.
Good luck, David, on your new venture. Hope it's successful, and you get the word out to a larger audience.
