Re: [Guide] Dogie's Comprehensive Manufacturer Trustworthiness Guide [12th Sept]
BFL consistenly and systematically fucked customers over last year, denying them refunds although they were required BY LAW to give them, as they didn´t ship their product near advertised time or on spec (efficiency!).
False. There was no law requiring us to give refunds. Please cite caselaw to support your position (you can't, since it doesn't exist. Please consult a lawyer before addressing this issue going forward. As for the advertised spec, people were offered refunds and were in fact REQUIRED to accept the new specs or they would be given a refund if they did not respond in a certain amount of time. How much more proactive and ethical can it get in that regard?

Bad business ethics includes all the mentioned problems, aswell as the systematic preying on newbies through false advertising.
What false advertising would that be?
It seems that unlike you, the FTC has a perfectly working understanding of the described problems
Then again, this is only my internet law degree speaking, so maybe it is all a huge misunderstanding with the FTC
