Interior Consignment Showplace

Beware of this store! We sold our house in Bucks County many months ago and had our beautiful furniture taken there for consignment. He listed our furniture on ebay and i watched the auctions. Many of our pieces were sold on ebay but he refused to pay us our portion of the sales. He is a con artist. Promised us over and over again that he would mail us a check. Never got a penny! We will be taking legal action.

DO NOT GIVE YOUR MERCHANDISE TO THESE PEOPLE! An occasional purchase, whatever, but as far as handing over your merchandise & expecting to get paid– Never! I have been waiting for my money Since December!
Here’s the whole sorted mess as brief as possible:
They received my items in AUGUST OR SEPT. 2010, sold them shortly after. ONLY after going on their website & visiting the store personally did I even known my things were sold.
When I finally followed up with THEM (WRONG– i shouldn’t have to ask for my money coming to me) They said my items were sold in DECEMBER & blurted out all kinds of dates of when they ‘settle books’, mail checks, etc. Fine. I am not an unreasonable person, by any means.
MONTHS had passed– NO CHECK.
I called & told them i had moved & gave them our new address. Once again, I am not unreasonable & surely things can be lost in the mail or not forwarded by the USPS. Ok they took the info & were going to «make sure the check went out with the last batch», but they weren’t sure.
MORE MONTHS PASSED… Another phone call, another «it should have gone out… are you sure you didn’t receive it… we sent it to the new address…» EVERY excuse & run-​around non-​answer you could imagine.
O.k.- they admit something is wrong & are mailing out another check.
WEEKS & WEEKS GO BY… I stop in. Everyone is clueless with the exception of a sloppy looking woman thrown across one of the couches for sale. She drags herself to the counter & punches buttons into a computer then says «Oh yes, that just went out last week» (not the first time I heard that) & assures me I will receive my check in the mail that day or come back the following day & they will cut me a new one on the spot. O.K. I am very patient & happy to finally be getting somewhere. Yes– I was WRONG!
Finally, in the midst of my busy summer I make yet another phone call. I explained to them I was told to come in the next business day & I would receive my check. I had been busy for a week or so, I’m coming in that day. O.k. Fine.
15 minutes later I receive a phone call from the same woman telling me that they mailed a check & refuse to stop payment & write another one. This conversation was so long, ridiculous & at times heated– yes, on my end too– since at one point I was told «How do we know you don’t have the checks in your house?» SERIOUSLY? WHY would I collect MY Money & Not CASH it???
Finally, we ended the conversation with her calling her «connection» at their bank to see if they could «stop payment without being charged» because they can’t afford to OR they could take the money out of my check! WHAT?!? I have done nothing wrong AND I’m sure my check had enough taken out! NEEDLESS TO SAY– I HAVE NEVER HEARD ANOTHER WORD FROM ANYONE.
IT IS AUGUST 2011 — BEEN WAITING ON THIS MYSTERY CHECK I HAVE BEEN OWED SINCE DECEMBER — ENOUGH SAID. Consider yourself warned!
