DO NOT USE STEALTHARMS.NET I DO NOT WANT TO HEEAR ITS A MISTAKE & THEY RAN INTO A PROBLEM, IF YOU CANCLED MY ORDER WITHIN A SECOND! IT SHOULD NOT HAVE CHARGED MY CARD WITH NO RECIPE & ME HAVE TO FIND OUT YOU STILL TOOK MY MONEY BY SEEING NEGATIVE OUT OF MY BANK ACCOUNT, GOOD THING I CHECK MY BALANCE & KEEP TRACK OF MY MONEY, SOME PEOPLE DO NOT! Went to purchase 2 things but the site canceled my order right on the spot, BUT TO MY SURPRISE THEY TOOK THE MONEY OUT OF MY BANK ACCOUNT WITHOUT A ORDER! HOW DOES THAT EVEN HAPPEN!? WHEN I CALLED ABOUT IT, THEY TOLD ME SOME CHICK WOULD CALL ME BACK TO RESOLVE THE PROBLEM, OK NO ONE CALLED ME BACK OR DID THEY LEAVE A MESSAGE SAYING TO CALL BACK ASAP TO HANDLE THIS PROBLEM! I DID GET A EMAILS EVERY FEW DAYS TO PROLONG THEM HAVING MY MONEY SAYING IT WAS A DISCREPANCIE WITH MY ADDRESS, BUT THAT DOESNT ANSWER THE FACT THAT THERE WAS NO ORDER, WHAT WAS A ORDER WAS CANCELED, SO WHY DIDNT YOU CANCLE MY PAYYMENT! AS QUICK AS YOU CANCELING MY ORDER!? WELL YOU KNOW WHY, CAUSE THEY ARE SCAM ARTISTS, MY CARD WORKED FINE ON ANOTHER BIG SITE. WELL THINK ABOUT IT, IF THEY DO THIS TO 1000 PEOPLE, SOME MIGHT NOT CATCH IT AND IF YOU DO IT TAKES OVER 10 BUSINESS DAYS TO GET BACK AND AT THE PRICE I SPENT THATS A GOOD PROPHET FOR DOING NOTHING BUT HOLDING PEOPLES MONEY AND GAINING INTEREST OFF IT. I ADDED UP WHAT MY INTEREST WOULD OF BERN OFF MY MONEY, EVEN BEING A COUPLE BUCKS, YOU DO THAT TO ALOT OF PEOPLES MONEY AND THATS A GOOD PROPHET FOR DOING NOTHING! DO NOT USE THESE PEOPLE WITH THEIR SCAM, YES IM SURE PEOPLE BOUGHT FROM HERE WITH NO PROBLEMS, BUT HOW MANY DID HAVE PROBLEMS BUT DIDN'T SPEND A COUPLE HOURS GOING THROUGH THEIR BANK, EMAILS, CALLING AND TRYING TO FIGURE THIS ALL OUT AND THE DID SAY ANYTHING ONLINE FOR A REVIEW? BE WARNED NOW...

I gave COMMUNITY MARKET 3220 Leechburg RD, Lower Burrell, PA *******- 5 CHANCES THAT I CAUGHT. NO MORE, CHECK EVRY ITEM BECAUSE THEY SELL OUT DATED FOOD! EVEN THE DRY FOOD! I bought cheese $9 pound you would think they'd make sure its not out dated, hard as a rock! Found out when my daughter came home from school & she said couldn't eat it. I bought chipped ham on sale $3.99 pound and they charged me $12! Good thing my wife caught that! That was the 5th time with the cheese, I DONT KNOW HOW MANY TIMES I GOT RIPPED OFF ON THE MEAT! GUESS PART MY FAULT FOR NOT CHECKING, SO IF YOU DONT CHECK? START NOW! THINK IF THEY DID THAT TO EVERYONE, THE A INCREASE OF $8 BUCKS PER POUND WHEN ITS SUPPOSSED TO BE FOR, SO $12 BUCKS PER POUND IS A SUPER PROPHET! I WAS CALM AT FIRST & WOULD NOT OF GONE THROUGH ALL THIS BUT I GOT PISSED ONLY BECAUSE THE MANAGER DIDNT EVEN SAY SORRY! I HAD TO DRIVE & WASTE MY TIME TO COME ALL THE WAY BACK THERE, SO WHEN PEOPLE COST ME MORE MONEY THEN I GET MAD! SHE ACTED LIKE I CAUGHT THEIR SCAM! WELL THANK YOU MANAGER, I WILL TELL EVERYONE I KNOW NOT TO SHOP THERE ANYMORE, NOW YOU CAN BE RUDE ABOUT THIS! DO NOT SHOP AT COMMUNITY MARKET IN LOWER BURRELL PA, THEY SELL OUT DATED MEAT AND DRY FOODS ARE VERY CLOSE TO EXPIRE DATES! JUST DRIVE THE MILE DOWN THE STREET & GAIN GAS POINTS AT OTHER STORE. THANK YOU FOR TAKING THE TIME TO READ... ITS A GREAT SCAM, BUT YOU CANT BE MAD ABOUT PEOPLE CATCHING YOU, THATS WHAT MADE ME THINK. IF YOU ONLY SAID SORRY...

Tip for consumers:
CHECK EVERY DATE, ASK FOR SAMPLE OF MEAT AND CHEESE, WELL CHECK EXPECIALLY ON BREAD TO, OH AND ANY SHELVE ITEM THEY SELL NOW THAT I THINK ABOUT IT, BECAUSE I FOUND SO MANY FOODS CLOSE TO EXPIRE DATES BUT THEY WERE STILL SELLING. GO TO THE BACK OF WHERE THEY STACK IT, THE NEW STUFF IS AT THE BACK OF THE SHELF AND OLD AT FRONT!

Products used:
Some eggs & couple other groceries I didn't want to have to find to take back with the OUT DATED AND HARD CHEESE AND SCAM PRICING ON THE MEATS.

FORREST TIRE CENTER INC I have to say never let me down to when it came to ANY TIRE I TOOK TO THEM! After not wanting to take the time to change my Polaris tires myself, well not change just pop the beed so i can put inner tubes in them and i had to deal with a moron manager at MR P'S TIRES IN BAYVIEW WISCONSIN, So I have to put credit where credit is due also. FORREST TIRE CENTER INC ON FORREST HOME IN GREENFIELD WISCONSIN i have to say never let me down! I was being lazy when I took my tires to MR P'S TIRES IN BAYVIEW cause they were only couple miles away. So here I am making a recommendation to a tire company that never let me down if I could change or buy what I needed for tires. Great people, so far no attitudes or lying like at MR P'S TIRES! Sorry when a place of BUSINESS HIRES MORONS TO RUN THEIR COMPANY THEN IT PISSES ME OFF, back to forrest tires, like I said I haven't had 1 complaint on the cleanliness of their store front to the smell of their people and place, trust when I say take a shower manager at MR P'S! I TRY NOT TO RECOMMEND PLACES only bad ones but I started thinking good places are just as important to to highlight as bad ones, so here's my start. I use to have a mechanic shop with my own tire changer and balancer but decided to sell and retire working part time for a friend. I hope you will try of my recommendations if need be and also post your reviews good or bad. I think when you post bad reviews it gives the owners a chance to make changes and of they don't cause they are that rich and don't need your business or recommendations then good for them. So here's a good review and keep a eye out for more good and bad. Thank you for taking the time to read and post yourself if you choose. Have a great day, keep smiling and don't let morons ruin your day! Lol

Holy crappp, so I stop here and when I first walk up I ask some questions and they just point to the door like sorry we can't talk to you lol ok, so I walk in and ask the manager if he could help me out popping the bead on some Polaris tires, he said I don't know what your talking about let's go look at what you got, ok that's the first problem when you lie to the customer, you been in business for how long and I'm the only person to bring in Polaris tires, first off if you do not know what a Polaris sidexside is, you shouldn't be running a business, yes that stupid... im a mechanic and just sold my tire chabger and balancer which I wish I hadn't if I have to deal with morons like this manager was. Anyways Past the incompetence of a 4 year old, I said as we were walking out you shouldn't have a problem popping the beads cause I had my own changers when I had my shop, this moron tells me well then you didn't have the tire changers like they got! Thats when i knew this looser was the biggest scam artist out there, trust me! First off there isn't 1 bad brand out there making tire changers, maybe balancers so I knew this guy wasn't all there, wait till you see this guy, unprofessional in his looks, like he just took a hit off the old glasses $#*! and his attitude which was 3rd grade level at best, I mean who let's a guys run a business for them like this great pc of work lmao! I pray to God above he's not the owner, anyways back to this brilliant person of a human being, tries to bullshyt me more on how they got the only and best equipment, yes you knew what I has without me telling you, ok people you know a fast talker when they try and say anything about having the best equipment, because I can take the cheapest wrenches and still fix the same things you do with your bullshyt snapon-crap, it's the people who do the good work, tools make it easier. SO BUYER BEWARE OF MR P'S 2366 S Kinnickinnic Ave Milwaukee, WI ******* because the manager is the biggest bullshyter out there! If you don't know or can't pop the beed on a Polaris tire you shouldn't be working ANYWHERE! Also look them up on bbb before you go. My recommendation is Forest tire center Inc, 8512 W. Forest Home Ave.
Greenfield, Wi ******* because what business turns down cash! Lol yes morons at Mr p's tires in bayview Wisconsin! As you can see in picture I set my forks on tires, sorry no video. But you get the idea of how to pop a beed lol any 4 or 5 year old would say push down now papa lol let's take our Polaris out, you know things things that everyone and their red headed set sister knows about! Guess bot the genius manager at Mr p's in bayview. Even when he looked at it he said oh I don't think I can do that, I just walked away WONDERING WHAT OTHER IDIOT HIRED THIS IDIOT! Sorry I normally don't make fun of people but I had to warn you of the stupidity of people at a business so you don't get scammed by fast talking liars like this manager at MR P'S in bayview Wisconsin...

Tip for consumers:
If you want tires done fast and at the best rates go to FORREST TIRE CENTER INC. LOCATED AT8512 W. Forest Home Ave.
Greenfield, Wi 53228
If I can't do it myself, this is the place to go and never turns down my cash in ANY TIRE I BRING THEM!

None, sorry the manager wasn't smart enough to pop the beed on a tire! He also didn't know what a Polaris rim and tire was either! So I did it myself... if people aren't smart your not getting my money, period!

So he gives me this toyota which I had to pick up after hours cause wife worked. So it's dark and I drive it home and notice the steering shakes around 45 mph, so didn't think much about it until I go to pack it the second I got home cause I had to drive to milwaukee wi from Pittsburgh, it was starting to lightly snow.

Front tires are almost BALD, drivers rear tire BALD and passenger rear about 1/4 I have it all record on video and pictures of EVERYTHING! Car was dirty on inside, anyways it your worst nightmare situation and I'm dead in the middle with them closed and not open till Monday! CALL and tell them my situation and said I'm not driving this car and explained everything, so lady said they will give me a replacement, just drive it yo airport a HOUR AWAY and pickup my replacement, I said I wouldn't of took the car in the first place if I knew I had to check to make sure your pics of junk are insured and legal to be on the road! She fine I will send town truck, tow truck doesn't show until next day around 20 or 11am! Sorry forgot. My mind isn't in right place because I'm worried about getting to Wisconsin for my meeting Monday morning. So I get the vehicle, walk out to inspect it and it's FRICKN ANOTHER ILLEGAL CAR FRIM MINNESOTA, WHAT THE HEYYYY, THEY MAKING ME A GINI PIG YO DRIVE THEIR JUNK VEHICLES BACK TO THE STATE WHERE THEY NEED FIXED! LOL MILWAUKEE IS ONLY 2 HOURS AWAY FROM MINNESOTA NOT 10, anyways I go back in and they are sorry again! Lol no prob just give me legal vehicle so I can get to Wisconsin. Next vehicle had steering problems, wondering when it came upon ruts in road. So I make it, drop vehicle off early and I get THE BILL $470 FRICKN DOLLARS AND FOR WHAT I WENT THROUGH!?

DO NOT RENT A CAR FROM BUDGET/AVIS THEY ARE SAME BUSINESS, I pre paid 3 days in advance because I has a business meeting pop up and I received a email to check and make sure the day of pickup and I did. So I called the number and guy said all good with my reservation. I drove almost a hour to get there and when I did get to the budget that I reserved with the address and the last tells me, you didn't call here, there's no number for here. 4491 Williams penn highway in monroeville pa 15*******348 I asked well what's the sense of a reservation if you can't get a car!? She shrugged her shoulders and said nothing... I MEAN YOU EITHER HAVE A CAR TO RENT OR NOT! ITS NOT HARD. I RENT HOTELS ACROSS THE UNITED STATES AND THEY EITHER HAVE A RIOM FOR MY DATES OR THEY DONT! THEY WERE HAPPY TO TAKE MY MONEY FOR 3 DAYS BECAUSE I PREPAID CAUSE I THOUGHT I WAS GUARANTEED A CAR BUT NO YOU ARE NOT AND WILL EVER BE BECAUSE THE LADY SAID READ THE FINE PRINT SOMEWHERE LOL THEY DONT GUARANTEE ANYTHING LMAO WOW SO I WASTED DAYS WITH THIS COMPANY, THEY TOOK MY MONEY AND NOW IM GOING TO MISS A MEETING WITH MY COMPANY IF I DONT BUY A PLANE TICKET FOR 1200!

UPDATE UPDATE, UPDATE THEY GOT BUSTED FOR SELLING HEROIN and other drugs and couple of their cars were in high speed chases! No wonder I didn't get a car lol

So I purchased a bunch of items from them, yeah it was only a few hundred bucks but I did have 2 different orders. Took them a week to tell me they won't ship to my other house when they had the option to!? Now it will take another week to get my money back then a few more days for my bank to clear it back into my account. Bad business if you ask me, don't have the option to ship to a different address if you aren't going to do it. Do you need the little bit of interest money that bad that you will make for holding my money for couple weeks? Cause it definitely came out of my account instantly but a week and a half to get it back not including the week you took to tell me. Just don't buy from them... I gave all info and everything even card was in my name.

It's 2-8-22 and still no money back in my account!

Hi Kaleb,

I'm sorry you are frustrated. We, and many other companies in our industry, have strict anti-fraud policies that protect our customers from unauthorized uses of their credit cards. Being that your order was flagged as a high risk of fraud, we were unable to ship your order to the unauthorized mailing address you provided. When we reached out for our security check, you chose to receive a refund, which we processed within 15 minutes of your request.

We take security seriously and do everything within our power to protect our customers. In cases like this, we lose credit card transaction fees, and the hours our team spends securing orders and communicating with the purchasers of potentially fraudulent orders. To us, it is worth it knowing that our customers are safe.

Wishing you the best,

Brian

So I cancelled it cause they didn't ship out yet! TRUST ME IT WILL BE WELL OVER 2 WEEKS THAT THEY STILL WONT HAVE RETURNED MY MONEY! CAUSE ITS BEEN 10 DAYS AND NOTHING, THEN IT TAKES A COUPLE FOR MY BANK TO CLEAR IT BACK! SCREW THESE MORONS! YOU NEED TO STEAL MY MONEY AND MAKE INTEREST OFF IT SINCE YOU HAVE TO RETURN MY MONEY!
