Ripped Off by PopPopsfish (John)
I paid $24 thru PayPal on July 4 for a gallon of an aquarium optimizer product which I had sampled in my tank and which I had initially gotten from John (Poppopsfish). It was never received and I live in PA, not all that far from his location. A week and a half later, I emailed John (poppop) to find out if my order was shipped and I was then told it would ship on July 15 via UPS. I still did not receive my order, and poppop has not had the courtesy to respond to my inquiries when (1) I asked for a tracking number, (2) asked what's happened to my product, (3) asked for the return of my $24, or (4) even when I filed a case with PayPal. Not a single response, not a shred of courtesy or decency.
I've also noticed that
www.poppopsfish.com has REMOVED their contact phone number from their website (the big gap of space in between "We are located in Reading Pennsylvania (USA)" and "3 PM to 8 PM EST" is where it used to be).

After many emails and a few phone calls to his cell phone and the phone number that was on my PayPal invoice and on the back label of one of the products I had gotten from him a few months ago, asking for info or requesting my $24 back, especially since I'm unemployed and had to scrape together the money to order the product, John has still not had the courtesy to respond and has certainly not had the decency to return my $24. He did not respond to PayPal, either, when I was left with no choice but to open a case with them, since I did pay him thru PayPal. PayPal has gotten me a whopping $0.38 back of the $24 I paid.
If anyone is in doubt about the above, I have all of the emails regarding this matter saved on my computer.
