Goofball814 Posted December 1, 2021 Posted December 1, 2021 (edited) Yep! Just received 4 counterfeit sets. 2 each of Sesame Street and Winnie the Pooh. Listing specifically says LEGO brand. For those who have contacted customer service, what has your response been? Edited December 1, 2021 by Goofball814 Quote

Gonkalin Posted December 1, 2021 Posted December 1, 2021 @Goofball814 where did you buy from? Walmart? And if so was the seller Jai SAI Inc? Quote

Ordered from Walmart, and original order shows "sold by walmart", but ultimately was fulfilled 3rd party. Sesame Street from Jai SAI, Inc, and Winnie the Pooh from DEI Sales, Inc.

joch29 Posted December 1, 2021 Posted December 1, 2021 that's messed up. Looked up the seller on walmart, it's ironic that their address is right next to a police station in houston. Quote
Gonkalin Posted December 1, 2021 Posted December 1, 2021 I saw that too. It’s in a strip mall. Also they have several addresses. So who knows what is the correct one. Jai SAI inc responded to my buddy that got shipped counterfeits. They blamed their shipper as being at fault and they didn’t know product was fake. They offered a 30% discount. Quote
iahawks550 Posted December 1, 2021 Posted December 1, 2021 There are federal agencies that are better suited to handle these investigations. Your local police department is not equipped to do this. Quote

I also made a report with USPS fraud dept online. But you can imagine what that's like. Quote

I didn’t know that. Ordered a few things from Walmart so do I need to look out for this? I don’t order lego from 3rd party listing and typically don’t look closely since I assume items order from Walmart or Target would be legit. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Quote

Minoly Posted December 2, 2021 Posted December 2, 2021 link me both listings and seller profiles in a DM please to help get them bannedSo if the order doesn’t ultimately list ship & sold by anyone then is it safe to assume Walmart sold and ship as well? Thanks for sharing this so others like myself can be on the look out. Like I said, I don’t examine items closely when I ordered directly from a legit retailer like Walmart and Target and not their 3rd party listing but I’m going to pay more attention now.

USPS has Postal Inspectors, which are federal agents. They are a very good agency. Secret Service, FBI and ATF also deal with these types of crimes. The main issue is the lack of quantity. A bunch of small cases is of much less interest than one very large case, for obvious reasons. Quote
FM Posted December 3, 2021 Posted December 3, 2021 Add Country Cobbler, Ltd. to the WM no-buy list, unless your kids are nuts about Dinosaur World. 4.4 stars, obviously fake reviews now that I look at them. A phone number search leads to an SAS Shoes location :/. If I don't get satisfaction from the counterfeit reseller maybe I'll call SAS' corporate legal department and let them know one of their stores is being used as a front for a counterfeit ring.Sent from my moto g power (2021) using Tapatalk Quote
Gonkalin Posted December 3, 2021 Posted December 3, 2021 I filed a report to the FBI cyber crimes division today per USPS’ recommendation. Quote

I’m expecting two of this set in the mail. My orders were placed with walmart so hopefully I’m getting the shipment from them. :/Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote
FM Posted December 3, 2021 Posted December 3, 2021 (edited) 3rd party. I started a return so I can drop it off at WM store tomorrow. Walmart address = NC, ship from address = 14675 Monte Vista Ave. Chino, CA. That address leads to BBB complaints on kisboob.com. Hmmm... somethin' strange here. Edited December 3, 2021 by FM Quote

raindog Posted December 3, 2021 Posted December 3, 2021 Received a Kylo Ren's Shuttle from Kohls today and, not only did it come in a box instead of a bag but the box was a doubled-walled one. I was prepared to receive a beat-up box and got a mint one instead. Merry Christmas! 3 Quote
BRIX23 Posted December 3, 2021 Posted December 3, 2021 Barnes and Noble Order placed on Nov. 22 ship to home to get the BOM promo: Shipped on Nov. 23rd last update with LaserShip was on Nov. 25 one state from me. BN ETA says Nov. 30 and LaserShip ETA says Dec. 2. According to BN CS they are going to "automatically" ship out a replacement on Dec. 5 if it doesn't arrive by then. Say they still have BOM in stock 🤷♂️. Paid with GCs too, which always seems to complicate these situations. Quote
