Mr. London sent a sample of wine data base (wine product information) to me. He and I agreed to terms of buying the assumed database sample. I wire transferred the money. The contract says 3 business days from delivery of money. The date was in January. February, March, April came and I still did not receive the data base. Eventually I received the data file and it was nothing close to the sample that he had sent. It was 100s of individual excel files and I was supposed to make sense of all the files. I asked him for data base files which links to images. The only image files I received from him was some personal pictures.
I asked for a refund. He did not like the legal document that I wrote for him to sign and release the money. He wanted one saying that I should not use his data. He finally got his lawyer to write up a document and I got my lawyer to look at it and he said it is ok to sign the document saying that I cannot use his data. I agreed to sign his document and then he had problems with the document his lawyer wrote up. He wanted to document our nasty conversations and I don’t know. I still have not received any document from him to receive the cash.
If anyone is looking for wine data base from Gregg London, I will provide all documents for free.

I have not used any data base that Mr. Gregg London supplied. I also hired a lawyer to negotiate this issue and Mr. Gregg London has not ever responded to my lawyers email. They have tried to reach him many times. Initially he did agree to give the refund back and ofcourse I had some issue regarding his clause of refund, and evnetually I agreed to his terms. Once I agreed to the terms he refused to refund the money. He than hired a lawyer to contact me and my partners. After which I hired a lawyer and he has never responded. He evnetually supplied the data base after a year of bickering. He still has to load the images. He has sofar not given the images. I have his original set of data. Before dealing with Gregg London, I would check him out on better business beaurea and he has a few lawsuits. And HE HAS NEVER RESPONDED TO MY LAWYER. SO WHAT DOES THAT TELL ONE... I finally hired people to load the UPC codes and soon there will be images. So please be sure to check the site out. So images were not given to me my Gregg London. AND THIS REPORT WAS FILED BEFORE HE LOADED THE DATABASE WITHOUT IMAGES. I can send all of Greggs original and new UPC codes he sent for free. Please respond to this email if you want it.
All the data online comes from my sources so I cannot give that. I can give the one file that Gregg London supplied.

Another incidence of business deal from Mr. Gregg London. Recently, he took money and did not deliver the material. What is so convincing that people don't do a google search for complaints or check the BBB out. The address for Gregg London is floating, seems to be changing address and yet the company exist. How do we spread this wealth of knowledge and truly prevent business deals such as this occurring? I am not the only victim so how do we prevent other victims? This goes for anything! People make more money by committing Fraud and are not afraid of having their kids follow their path, or perhaps they want their future generation to follow their path. Oh Well. I hope people read this and this goes to google front page.

I have also had a bad experience with Gregg - high pressure tactics, bait and switch... other unprofessional behavior.

Upon advice of Counsel, I will no longer post responses or comments. It's time for this "feud" to be settled in Court.

Fortunately these Forums allow for both Complaint and Rebuttal. That said, as relates to the July 19th comments made by Padmaja Ramadas, on behalf of her Firm - My Perfect Bottle, LLC - and her Partners - Ryan Vartoogian, Shekar Reddy, and Womah Neeranjun - please know that: 1) NO Attorney on behalf of Ms. Ramdas, her Firm, or her Partners has ever contacted me, 2) I did attempt contact with two Attorneys: a) an Attorney who was copied in an E-Mail quite some time ago, and b) another Attorney who's Phone Number was given to me by Ms. Ramadas; yet to this date, there has been no response from either Attorney, and 3) NO Images were (or will be) uploaded as: a) Ms. Ramadas states she is not using the Data (which she acknowledges receiving) so why would the Images be needed, and b) as per my initial Rebuttal, she did NOT pay for full and complete Data and Images. Now, having dispensed with the FACTS, let me address one of the "downsides" of these Forums - and that is - character assassination. Ms. Ramadas states: "People make more money by committing Fraud and are not afraid of having their kids follow their path, or perhaps they want their future generation to follow their path" - such comments have no basis as relates to her Complaint, nor - frankly - should they be permitted on a Complaint Site. Comments like this are incendiary, insensitive, and - obviously - show a complete lack of professionalism, not to mention potentially libelous. In the end, you have to wonder - is the goal of Ms. Ramadas, her Firm, and her Partners - some kind of resolution; or is the goal the perpetuation of an "internet" feud.

My name is Gregg London, and I am the subject of this post - filed by Padmaja Ramadas and her Development Partner, Ryan Vartoogian.

What Ms. Ramadas failed to mention is that she was quoted a Price of $30, 000 for the complete Wine Database, but only had $7, 500 to spend.

So, to "help her out", I supplied her with both Finished and Raw Data - something she clearly knew from both our conversations and from the Invoice (I am happy to supply the PDF).

What Ms. Ramadas also fails to mention is that - yes - I agreed to issue a Refund, but she wanted to have USE of the Data AFTER receiving the Refund. Obviously that's not quite fair.

What Mr. Vartoogian fails to mention is that he contacted me separately (without informing me that he was Ms. Ramadas' Partner) attempting to License the Data "on his own". At that point, I DID rescind any Refund discussions.

And finally, and of considerable importance, what both Ms. Ramadas and Mr. Vartoogian fail to mention is that, earlier this year, I DID supply them both with the completed Database File (worth well more than what she had paid), AND, they are currently using the Data on their Web Site at: http://www.myperfectbottle.com

It does seem patently unfair to: 1) Post a Complaint absent ALL of the facts and 2) Not remove the Post when you have received Goods FAR in excess of what you paid

Therefore, I would ask that this Post be removed as RESOLVED.

If your offer still stands, I wouldn't mind getting the database for free. Let me know if it's still something you can do. Thanks.
