Description
I pulled up Skiorders.com and found a pair of Alpine ski boots at a very reasonable price. I purchased them. I did not receive a confirmation at the time but ignored that. Somewhere I read to expect delivery in 5-15 days. When the boots did not arrive I sent an inquiry by email on the area of the website under "Contact Us". A few days later I had not gotten a reply. My husband said it was not in the "sent" file. I thought maybe I forgotten to hit "send" so repeated my attempt to contact. This time I checked the sent file and there was nothing in my "sent" file. I googled the website name to see if there was a phone number I could try. On the google site I found multiple comments from folks who had also paid money for an item and never received it. Most of them were from October 2023. Since I put it on my credit card I reported it and I am in the process of trying to get my money back. On my credit card statement it stated it had gone through Paypal but when I called Paypal they did not have a record of that. When I made the payment I had checked to pay by Visa and put in my info. When I clicked Place Order Paypal popped up like it had gone through on Paypal. I assumed it had gone through Paypal. I thought that was strange but it did not set off enough concern at the time. The site looks legitimate and displays nice pictures and offers great prices. It seems by my experience and from what I have read from others it is not a legitimate website.
