My experience is that I got a judgement, but was unable to collect as the small claims court does not enforce the judgement. So I filed the judgement as a lien against his home. 3 years later when he was selling his house the title company would not clear the title until he agreed to pay me from the proceeds of the sale. I received a check from the title company for my 5000 plus 10% for 3 years. How sweet it is.

All I want is to get what I ordered and paid for 8 months ago.

I am stuck here with a beautiful custom made desk without a keyboard drawer and I had someone look at it and they said the way it is constructed it cannot be resolved with a kit. The drawer would need to be rebuilt.
What was the suppliers response to your complaint?

Initially he told me that he had ordered the parts and they would be in in 2 weeks. After 3 weeks I was told he was waiting for the truck to go up due to the bad weather. After that radio silence. I do not believe he ordered anything or had any intention to do so.

Let There Be Peace On Earth And Let It Begin With Me!

Until someone tries to "Get Over" on someone then watch out. The Spoken and Written Word on Policies that Suppliers of Goods Profess actually only apply when you are

are on the phone with them. I find that an Eyeball to Eyeball meeting usually solves things in an acceptable way.

When they hide behind the phone as some do hide behind a keyboard they don't realize their valued customer has a different Spoken Policy that is better delivered in

person. Most problems can be worked out.

I do see the value of Small Claims Court and am very interested in learning all I can, Second Hand of Course.

Small claims court is a waste of time. They don't give you any money. You get a judgement which is almost impossible to collect on if the defendant chooses to ignore it.

One thing common to small claims court is the other party frequently lies. Your best offense is documentation and pictures.

So I opened a case with Seniors vs Crime and my parts miraculously appeared but they can't do it this week even though it has now been almost 9 months. Definitely not a priority for them since they already got their money.

So the latest update is that they have agreed to order a completely new desk. Seniors vs Crime was definitely effective in interceding for us.
