Anglers, he careful of a company named Fishing Care Package. Have a look at a company before you order. I did not. On 11/16 they had a special on the Shimano Curado DC.for $149.99. Good price, right? I had seen other merchants have similar specials like this one. But wait, these folks had a BOGO going on, and sure enough, when I added the second reel it was free. I got an order number right away, but when I asked for a tracking number, my request went into a.dark hole. I then checked them out online and saw I had company with other fools. Since they went incommunicado, I called the cc company to report them. Be smarter than I was.

There are a lot of companies like those out there. Just about everyone I know has gotten the shaft at one time or another If it seems too good to be true, it usually isn't. It took a long time for me to learn that.

Yes, orrdering from a FB link has burned me in that the item came from China, was amaller then I thought, took long time to areive, and would have been cheaper and better from Amazon. I just don’t like any kind of FB links.

I have started to order a few times then did a reality check and said no way is this legitimate. Had multiple charges for some clothing items on my wife’s card. All on the same card and for the same $119.99. Canceled the card and got new account. She had no idea how they got the card number but they did. CC company when checking said they had many complaints against the same company.

I am stand in the "been screwed" line myself. Yesterday I ordered the black betty ice fishing reel from a source on ebay. The reel was cheaper than I could get it from 13 fishing. Paid by pay pal. Got confirmation numbers & all that yesterday. This afternoon I got a message from ebay stating that due to issues with the vendor I wouldn't be getting my reel & i would have to file some kind of claim. Tax & all was almost $132. I'm sure I can kiss that goodbye. I've bought a lot of stuff from ebay & have never had the slightest issue. I really wanted that reel. I may have a personal issue with it but I won't order another one if it was 3 cents. I hate being screwed. Gets my agent orange all riled up if you know what i mean. Watch your ass.

I have only been burned twice on EB. I got some plastic (without holes) golf balls. The second time was from a shipment from Canada, when the authorities opened.the package and took some stuff from it.

Those Canucks are different. A couple years ago i was crossing the border headed to Dogtooth lake. The inspector woman ask me if I had pepper spray. I said yes, I have both personal defense & bear spray. She took my personal defense but I could keep the bear spray. Human spray was illegal & it was unlawful to use bear spray on a human. I let the lady know that unlawful or not if I was attacked by an unruly Canadian i would use the bear spray on him. SOB's. Anyway , it sucks to be swindled by someone we can't face. If I could get my hands on the convict I could get my money's worth of hide in just a few seconds. My fishing buddy is crappie fishing at cypress cove marina on fort gibson lake this morning but only catching undersize fish. He wants me to come over & be miserable with him but I think I'm going below Lake Tenkiller dam & pester the trout. Tight lines
