What happened to JR Cigars?
What happened to JR Cigars? I placed an order for a package on December 6th. I paid close to 30$ extra for priority mail. The package was stated to be arriving on December 9th. It is December 16th as I write this. As you can guess, my package never arrived. Thus far it has been stuck in pre-shipment. This is completely unprecedented. Over the last several years, I have ordered with priority shipping, and it was worth the extra dollar. I don't know what happened, but something has gone terribly wrong with JR Cigars. When I contacted them in regards to this matter, I was lied to by a representative, who tried to pin the blame on USPS, and claim that it was their fault. This is a blatant lie, as USPS confirmed that that they had never received my package. The worst part about this is that I can't even get a refund until my package arrives, or so JR cigars claims. I cannot afford to feed myself, let alone afford return postage. I will no be ordering from JR Cigars, as it is abundantly clear that they are no longer reliable or trustworthy, and I strongly urge anyone who reads this to do the same. What a year 2020 has been. We have watched a nation fall, and a once reliable business become little more than another corporate scam. ~~~~~~~~~ Update: JR Cigars reached out to me with this insult of a message. ~~~~~~~~~ Dear Joseph Dufresne, Thank you for contacting JR Cigars, Upon reviewing your order there is no current tracking information. We value our loyal customers and strive to provide you the best service possible. Please continue to check your JR Cigars online account for the latest details regarding your order. The overwhelming demand has put a strain on shipping carriers throughout the country. These unforeseen circumstances may delay your package and we, unfortunately, cannot guarantee delivery before Christmas. Due to shipping delays, it has cause JR Cigars to revise our return policy due to carrier delays. We will now only process reshipments of products and process credit return request only after 14 business days from the shipping date. This has been a very challenging year and we want to wish you and your families a happy and healthy holiday season. Regards, JR Cigars ~~~~~~~~ What this is, is another blatant attempt at passing the blame to USPS. I have reviewed the details of this case with them, and they have confirmed that they have not received a package in my name. To add insult to insult, JR Cigars is not only lying about the status of my shipment, but are refusing a refund until the package has shipped to me, and is then returned by me. It also says in the message above, plain as day that they won't refund the returned product until fourteen days after it was returned. This is a scam, designed to steal money from customers, and absolve JR Cigars of any and all personal responsibility. It is not honest, nor profesional, and I will be pursuing legal recourse to the utmost extent of the law until this matter is resolved. I strongly advise anyone who has been exploited by this fallacy masquerading as a reputable company, to do the same.
