I have several hundred dollars worth of furniture with Lifestyles Consignment. I went out there several times to collect my money. Much of the furniture had been solld. Each time I was given an excuse why she could not pay me at that time. I finally was given $200, with the promise that i would soon receive a check for the balance. I called every day for 2 weeks without a return call. I finally left a message saying that if I did not hear from her within 24 hours, I would call the police. She called back within 15 minutes!! Her story was that she had lost her lease on the building and that she was negotiating for a larger place in Ocala. She also told me that she had mailed a notice to all consigners that day telling them of her "transition". That was a month ago..............no notice received, of course. I too will contact the BBB and the AG's office. If there are enough of us in the Villages, perhaps we could do something as a group. Pls let us hear from those of you who have been affected by this flim flam.
