I feel ripped off, I did not get a 208 disc wallet with the extra 16 disc fast file insert as the description claims.  Don't be tricked like I was !  It's also quite flimsy, lined with cardboard for support.

I didn't know the kit was required. This should be included. Seems like a little bait and switch.

I followed the link on an online green house project (texasprepper2). When I was given the option of paying $64 or $44 I chose the $44 (duh).  The product shipped to me was not as pictured in the on-line ad.  I was shipped construction grade plastic.  Construction grade is clearly written on the box I received, but not on the amazon on-line picture, as shown above and to the left.  Do I feel shafted or at least scammed by in-accurate advertising? You bet.  Now, I still need green house (clear not white construction grade) and do not trust you nor your partners.  Perhaps I should have not picked the cheaper one.  But the cheaper one does employs false advertising (construction grade, white not clear).  I will go to a green house plastic firm and pay double the price to get what I need.  Fool me once shame on you.

So now I must enter customer service hell. I will call. But this is a total RIPOFF. At best it is a scam to get personal contact info from me.

Update: I called customer service. They said this is common. They are sending a form for me to fill out. Personal information I bet. Probably want my SSN just to get a key for a box that should have come along.

Update: I received the form. They want a NOTARIZED form with personal ID info and MONEY for keys. RIPOFF!!!!

Update: I returned the safe. So Amazon paid for shipping this 60lbs both ways just because the seller can't figure out how to include keys. Phone support said missing keys is common.

Update: Amazon refunded my money the day after I dropped off the return shipment. Case closed.

I don't know what version of this the Amazon seller is carrying, but if you, like me, check reviews here before buying a product in the store, you NEED TO KNOW THIS.

I bought the 4-disc JumpStart Advanced Preschool at a physical location, thinking I was buying a multi-level PC game for my son that would keep him busy for many hours. I was wrong. The enclosed "game" consisted of ONE world/level that he got through in about 4 hours, and then instructed me to visit the JumpStart website, where in order to continue through the next levels of the game I would have to subscribe to the site for $8 a month.

On the message boards at that site, there are scores of complaints like this one from angry parents like me who feel they spent upwards of $20 for what is essentially a demo game. The response from the Jump Start representative is always some form of: "We feel the monthly subscription is a great value," with no apologies for the deceptive tactic, and I do feel it is deliberately deceptive, for the following reasons.

The front flap of the box has a banner that says "Continue the Adventure: Access Thousands of Additional Learning Games with Membership!" This does not make clear that membership costs MONEY, nor does it reveal that you can only do about a dozen activities WITHOUT the membership. There is some very fine print on the Preschool Essentials panel that says: "Jumpstart 3D Virtual World First Adventure Included". Apparently JumpStart expects us to believe that this is sufficient to inform you that this is the ONLY thing included, rather than what I would have assumed, which was that it was a bonus inclusion along with the ordinary game.

I don't buy that this is due to a "factory error", as claimed by a reviewer on this site. If it were a factory error, Jump Start would be recalling the faulty boxes and repackaging them to save their reputation. This is deliberate deceptive and manipulative packaging designed to drive traffic to their website and generate more subscriptions. The rep on the message board does, of course, offer a refund to angry parents, which is laudable, but it would be better not to rip people off in the first place. I for one do not like the hassle of shipping products back and demanding refunds, and of course no physical store will accept returned software.

I will not buy a Jump Start product again. No company that uses these kinds of tactics deserves my money.

So what I ordered and what arrived were two different things.  I ordered a more expensive model (judging by thickness of plastic backboard material itself), and what arrived was a lower-priced model having a thinner backboard thickness.  Lifetime Customer Service is a trip... (I'm still shaking my head).  NO MODEL NUMBER is actually put on the backboard and, as customer service says, "The decals and appearance can change..."  and per the thickness of the backboard material itself "I don't know why they always round up..."  And so it goes!  The joke's on me, they shook me down for an extra $30.  For all the frustration and money I wish I'd just cut out a large piece of 1" thick plywood and been done with it.

I received this drive from Amazon today. It was wrapped in a piece of cardboard with plastic instead of a nice box like is shown in
the picture. I paid the new price for a new TEAC External USB Floppy Drive ( FD05PUB/KIT/TI )  but instead I was sent an old
HP usb floppy drive from the year 2005. When I asked to be sent what I paid for the agent said he could not do this. This on the surface seems to be a case of bait and switch.
They did say I would credited for the HP Drive but I really wanted the new Teac FD05PUB/KIT/TI.

The item I recerived looked nothing like the picture. Even though it was only a couple of dollars I returned it immediately. Bait & switch or just poor all around product management? This is the first time this has happened to me with Amazon.

Bait and switch scam. Advertises features and then removes and puts under a paywall. Disgusting

Tried to b kind to this thing, but its bait & switch, quite literally. The listing states one fast one slow charger on a dual usb wall charger. NOT what I got. BOTH charging outlets bringbup the warning on BOTH the kindle Fire & my dinosaur of a 4 year old cell phone that they are SLOWA CHARGERS which might not EVEN CHARGE if I intend to continue using the appliance while charging. I do much work while prone in bed with my Spider bitten leg in the air, draining edema fluids back down into my body, sometimes multiple times of the day depending on pharma & OTC pain coverage. So I NEED to keep charging both the phone & the kindle when I'm doing work.
Our work hours are 2pm to 5am to manage our overseas AND domestic suppliers, clientel & normal forms of business. We eat bandwidth & charge.
This little beauty was SUPPOSED to help with that.
It does not.

Well I feel cheated out of 2 or 3 dollars. I purchased the TiAx V2s in raw/raw, and they only sent me one when it should have been a set of 2, as stated in the description. I paid about 42 dollars for this one truck. So, I asked Amazon if they could give me another so I wouldn't be stuck with one truck, rendering my skateboard unskateable. They did not. I was forced to schedule a pick up to return it and in exchange, receive a full refund. So, I decided to buy the item in another color (black/black) and I was brought back to phase one. I was sent a package that only contained one truck, and I actually paid 2 or 3 dollars more. So this time, I took my time to contact amazon. I rang them up on the telephone, and they said that it was a terrible mistake and that they will change the description immediately. They sent me the second truck for free overnight. This was 3 months ago. They still have not changed the description. So watch out. Overall, the trucks are very well made. They are strong, but do not expect them to be indestructible. and if they do break, contact the manufacturer at hayleyh@anticsintl.com and they will do their best to help you out. The customer service reps for both places (amazon and Theeve [antics intl]) are great. REMEMBER TO ADJUST AND BREAK IN THE TRUCKS BEFORE GOING HARD ON YOUR FANCY STUNTING!

I feel cheated with the difference between what I thought I was ordering and the 20 or so pages I actually got. One little short story. Shame on you for this. Unfair marketing tactics.

Gotta love the ol' bait and switch!

The item I received does not match the item pictured. It has silver contacts instead of gold/gold plated, no red grommets, and the fuse holder and fuses were simply loose in the shipping envelope. Not impressed.

I haven't had a chance to install this yet so I'll probably update after I do.

The first order I got was incorrect, there were chargers instead of A/V cables.  I wrote to inform them and they sent me cables for a "M" style player.  It was not RCA connections.  The picture was that of a "W" A/V cable as well.  I have written then back and they have only responded that they mailed the correct Item.  I have STILL NOT received the correct item I ordered.  It seems like I am e-mailing a computer.  I am very dissatisfied with this company.  THIS is a BAIT and SWITCH for sure!!  I would recommend you NOT to order from them.

I guess you could say I did this to myself.. I bought this equipment about a year ago.. I just got around to hooking it up.. To begin with,I DID NOT GET THE SYSTEM IN THE DESCRIPTION!!  Bait and switch?? Mine says Sannce all over it not Annke.. The DVR, and cameras are not the same.. Nothing about it looks by the description.. Sannce and Annke may or may not be one in the same, but I DID NOT get what was in the description..There are no real specs on any of it, so who knows what the hell I really got.. I'm stuck now.. As other people have stated, you can forget any kind of tech support, and the instructions are NOT translated into anything you can understand.. User interface sucks,.. Picture quality(quality?) is laughable.. Everything about it says cheap junk..
I would imagine the good ratings are from other systems, NOT what I have.. Look close, the reviews are the same on lots of different systems..
I just wish there were a way to give a negative rating.. I really wish I had opened it up when I first received it.. I would have sent it back in a heartbeat..  I did it to myself..

This was a bait and switch. I ordered the same item I had before, which was a wider headband with no Velcro or anything, and a braided headphone cord. This model is thinner, with uncomfortable Velcro in the back and a weird rubber cord that doesn't fall as easily under the pillow. Also the headphones shorted out after just three uses, when I rolled over. I'm returning it, but somehow that doesn't seem like enough. Insomniacs are desperate for sleep, you guys. Don't mess with that.
