An absolute scam. My starscope arrived with NO magnifying lens. Multiple e-mails later, no resolve. Waste of money

I ordered a Monocular on 1/2/21 and was told it would ship in 7 - 10 days. On 1/14/21 I was given a USPS tracking number. When you check it out it says label created but no shipment yet as of 1/14/21. Hopefully unlike so many others I am not getting ripped off. I will do a follow up review if and when I receive it

I was offered a chance for a second review of these pirates, so I'll use it to warn anyone who is tempted by their deceptive advertising and fake evaluations that this company's stock in trade is fraud. If you make a purchase, you're pouring your money down a black hole,

customer service not good
customer service not good, been trying for 2 wks. to find out status of my order, numerous inqueries with no pertinent answers. one E-mail states that order shipped with no confirmation another states that it was referred to shipping dept. and never heard back, one thing they did not have a problem with was charging my credit card worst customer service.

SCAM, SCAM, SCAM!! RUN AWAY
My order was placed without review or confirmation. Checking account was debited. I immediately tried to cancel by phone. I was told I would be referred to a “ retention specialist” and would be contacted within 24-48 hours. That was 10 days ago I keep getting emails saying they need more information from me but don’t specify what. SCAM,SCAM SCAM!! RUN AWAY. Also, I have emailed “support.starscopemonocular.com” MANY times to no avail!!!

trying to return the products
I am now trying to return the products I purchased and they are making it impossible to get the information needed to do so. The scope is no better than an old pair of binoculars that I was trying to improve on. It took almost 4 weeks for the scopes to be delivered. FAIL on all counts.
so Starscope send the following message:
"Hello Frank! Sorry to hear your experience was not satisfactory. If you’re open to discussing your experience further, please contact our customer support at .starscopemonocular.com We’ll work with you to resolve any issues as quickly as possible."
Please, i went here before and filled out the form and hit submit repeatedly. There was no indication of whether it submitted or not. If it did they have about 10 copies of it. Or more likely it just doesn't do anything when you submit. More FAIL!
NEXXXXXXXXXXT: They offered me a 50% discount on some of their other products. They want to get more of my money and still refuse to provide an address where I can return the products I don't want. They falsely state that they provide a 90 day money back guarantee but refuse to respond to unsatisfied customers who try to contact them via their self-described best method of contact.

Unpleasant Experience
I ordered the Starscope December 8th, and just received it today, January 10th. Each time I emailed customer service, all I got was a "pat" email apologizing and blaming the delay on the pandemic. By December 31st, I began asking for a refund, because of course, they took my money. I still got "pat" emails with nothing addressing my request for a refund. Each time I went into the site to "track" my order, all I got was the "in process" on the timeline. January 3rd I received an email telling me my order would not arrive before Christmas. Really? January 5th, I finally talked to a customer service rep in person! He explained my order had shipped December 20 via the USPS from NJ; from there it went to LA, and then to Dallas, and I was told it was then in route to FL, where I am located. This was very helpful as it was the 1st information I actually received! My order arrived today, January 10th, and it is a gift that I've delivered, so know nothing about its quality or how it works yet. I'm just praying it was worth the wait and aggravation on my part. Not a pleasant experience for me.

I still have not received this product
I still have not received this product. It was ordered on Dec 14 and was supposed to be a christmas present. There has been some confusion regarding a duplicate order which was confused this the original order. Both were apparently cancelled in error. There are multiple emails regarding this. Your communication is less than acceptable, Please resolve asap.

Ordered at the beginning of December
Ordered at the beginning of December. Never received an email, order number or status on order. Had no way to track, even going to the website. Around the middle of December recieved a text saying my order was not completed and I needed to “finish” my order so I would still receive it. Bad decision, again no communication from company at all. Go to review my credit card statement and apparently my first order DID go through, they charged me, on top of that used another name and charged me again the day I had recieved that text. Total SCAM! I am now disputing the charges.
