AG FILES "CIVIL" SUIT AGAINST CONSIGNMENT VAMPIRE (8/31/14)


DON'T KID YOURSELF. 
Mike Burns wasn't born yesterday. He wasn't born on the Fourth of July, either. NOPE. Mike Burns was born on 9/11 in 1952. He was destined.

February 27, 2014
In 2013, at least seven people  besides me who consigned goods to Camelback Consign & Design (CCD) subsequently posted allegations of breach of contract on the websites of Yelp, Google & the BBB.

Updated: 4/9/14

For more details, see the blog posts at the bottom of the page. 

On my behalf, between July 9 and October 9, 2013, CCD reported selling a little over $15,000 in antiques and fine furniture. Thereafter, it failed to return or reimburse me for approximately $20,000 in goods. The total value of items either not returned or paid for is about $35,000. Per my CCD contract, I should have received $22,750 (65%). I received an initial check on Sept. 13th, a month late. It was returned non-sufficient funds. On Dec 5th, after a call from Call 12 for Action, CCD paid me $2200 to make that check good. I am still owed > $20,000.

The BBB.org recently reduced CCD’s business rating to F on a scale of A+ to F, at least in part because of such business practices as I described above.


BBB F-bombs Camelback Consign & Design 

Parasitic “business” activities impoverish consumers. (After all, I am a consumer, too.) The financial loss to consumers means that there is less money invested in businesses that actually contribute to the local economy. When parasites proliferate unchecked, the viability of the systems they pillage can be destroyed. This applies to eco-systems, our bodies, and to economies.

The cost of redress: police time, legal efforts by the Attorney General’s office, and the courts is eventually shared by all taxpayers. Do you imagine that CCD is paying taxes on misappropriated assets?

For full details, see my blog post: Picking Pockets in Phx is Lucrative.


Also look for the Channel 5 article about CCD: Proceed cautiously with any consignment store. The current intro looks like this...























DON'T KID YOURSELF.

He was destined. 
Don't forget to tip a hat to Ms. Indispensable, Vera Manuz, either. Where would Mike be without her?

TURN THE TABLES ON THE PREDATOR!

1. File a complaint with the BBB.org.  

2. Contact Call 12 for Action or 5 on Your Side, for starters.

 

3. Contact the Az Attorney General's office: wwwazag.gov. There is an online consumer complaint form. 

4. File a complaint with RipoffReport.com

5. Post your complaint online with Google and Yahoo reviews. Yelp is an iffy proposition but if your time and energy allow, try that.

6. Call the editor of the Phoenix Business Journal. Call the Newsroom at the Arizona Republic. Let them that you have been victimized. Have your details at hand: Don't waste an editor's or a reporter's time.
7. Feel free to improvise your own approach or make suggestions to me.

8. Generate a blog. Publicize it. Put an entry on my blog. 

9. With regard to Camelback Consign & Design.  Contact me: especially if you would be willing to join a law suit or testify in one. 

Teamwork sometimes overcomes obstacles that stymie individuals working alone.
