i saw an ad for the aluma wallet on TV last night". I went to their website to order 2 wallets, since their ad said that I could get two, for one if I paid the shipping for the 2nd one/. I went through the credit card info drill?. When I was ready to confirm the order I noticed that my order not only reflected my assumed order but a second line item that I did not enter for two more wallets appeared on the order;. I expected my order to be around 18-20 dollars:. It was almost 62 dollars,. There was no way for me to back out of the order, or confirmed?. I was able to cancel my credit card before their bogus order was credited to my account;. I can't believe Amazon is listing this crap on the sales site. 1292f17

I thought I'd spend 20 bucks and get 2, but instead I charged $68 and was going to receive 4 of them! I was able to cancel and re-order just the 2 for $22, which is reasonable enough. Jeez. You just can't trust anyone any more! |

U can't keep but just a few dollars cash in it and a debit card and by the way I know I'm fat but I don't weigh near what that truck on tv does and mine is dented and broke after a week of trying to use it. U would b better off carrying cash in front pocket and your credit and debit cards in a condom. |
| 3. Written by Nela on August 26, 2011 from newark, delaware, US Thank you for all your information. I'm definitely not putting my cc info on these sites. I just went through something similar with a different product and I had to cancel my cc to prevent the scammers to charge my card with a $200 membership I didn't need. |
| 4. Written by Jenny on July 2, 2011 from north adams, michigan, US I had a similar experience with another one of these tv ads. Thank you for letting me know about this one. Nearly all these tv offers eventually are sold in stores like Walmart where you can pay simply for the one item and no hidden costs. I believe that all online sites should have to give you the total including shipping and handling before asking for your credit card number and an option to cancel the order before finally confirming the sale. Any sites which don't do this are more than likely and in fact almost positively scams so don't buy. Wait for a few months til they are in the stores. |
