Description
The site https://pintses.com/ was what I stumbled across on Facebook as they were selling, what looked like, very high-quality hats with US Military support on each of the hats. As far as the advertisement, the products looked very nice and would have been nice if that was what was being sold/sent to anyone willing to spend the money to get the items. Once received, nearly a month after purchase, the products didn't match the advertisement in the slightest. Instead of high-quality materials and embroidery as they were advertised, cheap cloth was used with a print on them that was similar to advertisement. Very disappointed in that I am a US Navy Veteran and wanted to get a couple of nice hats to commemorate the 250 years of the US Navy. What I got was a waste of time, waste of money, only 30% offered in refund from the company, and lie after lie from them as well. Even if you ship the item back, they state "We don’t guarantee that we will receive your returned item." So even if you do get the address correct and send them their garbage item back to them, they're likely to reject the return just so they don't have to provide a refund. Please stay away from Pintses and any of their fake ads online and on any of the social medias. They are a fake company that sends out lower quality items than Etsy for a much higher price. Save your money, buy American made.
