Empire Liquidators pressure washer and steam cleaner

I normally don't bother with feedback, however, this is a special case. I ordered and used pressure washer steam cleaner combination off of Ebay. They shipped it to me and it was so poorly boxed up that it arrived broken beyond being able to use it. I contacted the seller and they arranged UPS to pickup the machine and was very understanding. They told me that when the machine arrived back with them that they would refund me the money. The machine was received by them, and then their games began. Everyone I communicated with said they needed to confirm the receipt of the machine and then they would refund me my money. This went on for more than a month because it was always someone "new" that needed to investigate the issue. What they did was hold me off until the Ebay guarantee refund expired. I know I was stupid to fall for their tricks, but I was operating under the assumption that they were working in good faith to refund me. I finally got help from Paypal. They took 12 days to review the case and to give the shipper time to respond. I got my refund from Paypal. DO NOT DO ANY BUSINESS WITH THIS COMPANY! They are scammers. The absolute worst company I have dealt with in half a century.

Empire Liquidators Took my money/Scam Business

This company is unprofessional and a big scam! I bid on some golf clubs for my dad and was told they would arrive in time for fathers day 2006, they didn't. Waited 6 weeks and I bought some out of pocket. After 8 weeks filed a complaint with ebay the seller told me to rebid on another set, so I did and got outbid several times. Last time I bid I won the new item, a womans driver, I called and let them know I won and that they owe me a credit. Never received it again this time they said for nonpayment when the agreement was they would apply the credit to the item and then on top of that they charged me 10 dollars restock fee! THEY KEPT MY MONEY AND THEY GAVE ME BAD FEEDBACK. I HATE THIS COMPANY!

Empire Liquidators Screwed!

Took my money, lied to me for a few weeks telling me the article was shipped. Left negative feedback for them. They rushed to contact me and the agreement was I would change the feedback and they would credit my account. They are a bunch of LIARS. I called them over 30 times (at my expense) and no one ever called back. Or gave me my credit. Stay away from them. You'll get more enjoyment ripping your money up and tossing it in the air. And don't remove negative feedback!

Empire Liquidators Does not work

I bid on and won 2 dehumidifiers. One of the units works great. The other one doesn't dehumidify. The control panel lights up and the fan turns on. The "important" part, the compressor does nothing. I have emailed, spoken to them on the phone and gone through PayPal to file a complaint. Empire Liquidators says that the item was "bench tested", meaning someone plugged it in and it lit-up and made a noise. I was told that the accounting dept. would credit me for the defective item. YEA RIGHT! Numerous calls to them and no one from accounting has called me back. I'm out $100 for a piece of crap, that blows air. I checked with the BBB and they have given them an F1 rating, which is the worst rating that the BBB can give. This company sells crap, you can't return it because of there "no return policy". You buy something that doesn't work and then your stuck with it, along with the shipping fee. DO NOT BID, BUY or DEAL WITH THIS COMPANY. Don't believe me, bid on something and try to return it, if it's defective. You've been warned!

Empire Liquidators Scam and cheating

Item # [protected] Crosman Soft Air Rifle pulse R74 Airsoft, purchase on 4/21/2008 07:44:44. Total Price of $25.45. I found missing parts and the electrical wiring had been jury-rigged. I returned the item at my cost and asked for a refund. The girl I initially spoke with told me that I could only have a store-credit. I reminded her that policies such as this must be declared to the buyer prior to the purchase. No satisfaction, so I called back and spoke with a girl by the name of "Amy" and we discussed the matter. She offered to look ffor an identical item in the warehouse that worked. I never heard anything back. I later have spoken to a manager named Chris. He said he would look into the matter as I at this point only wanted a refund. I did not hear back so I called a couple of times more and some phone tag took place. He called me back, without a clue, and I briefed him on our earlier conversation (which was on his answering machine as well. He left a message to "Gene" and "Sandy", both of who work only for a couple of hours on Tuesdays and Thursdays and they had no phone or extension. Chris said that he had left a note for them and at the time of this call 8/19/2008, he said he would leave another. He stated that the money had been in a store credit account and that the two "old" part-time guys were the only ones who could pull the monies from the store credit dept and send reimburse me via PayPal. Overstock.com Auctions is who I purchased the item through and they cannot function as a customer service. Just dam poor business people all the way around. I'm tired of the run around and want these deadbeat employee's to get the lead out and get this done, and I mean now.

Empire Liquidators Lied & Ripped Me Off

Bought article that was never received. Poor response to e-mails. When I posted negative feedback on E-bay they rushed to respond to me! I agreed to remove negative feedback because they told me they'd refund my money. Of course that never happened. I called them for over 6 months, probably about 100 times and left messages for the accountant, the manager - no one ever calls back. Then they had the audacity to block me from being able to bid on an auction!
If you are contemplating doing business with them I'd think twice. I looked at their overall Ebay average before bidding but should have looked at the individual transactions and would have seen all the negative feedbacks that subsequently was changed. Just like what I did. Unfortunately Ebay doesn't allow you to enter more information about the company after that.
Empire Liquidators owe me about $80. I'd happily donate that to charity if I could get my refund.

Do not buy from Empire Liquidators! They will rip you off! Do not pay attention to positive reviews as they are posted by the management of Empire Liquidators. I purchased a microwave on eBay that had been "tested". It was defective when I received it. I arranged for a return, shipped it back to them, and return delivery was documented by UPS. Empire Liquidators says they never received it, will not refund me and have been absolutely terrible to deal with. Avoid them at all costs!

i WAS LOOKING AT A COUPLE ITEMS THIS COMPANY HAS ON EBAY, THEN WANTED TO KNOW WHERE THEY WERE BASED WHEN I FOUND THIS SITE. I ALSO READ WHAT FORMER EMPLOYEES ARE DESCRIBING THE PRODUCT ORIGINS. THEY ARE GETTING THIS STUFF BY THE TRUCKLOAD AT AUCTION. (I'VE BEEN INVOLVED WITH THIS STUFF FOR A FEW YEARS). THE HOME DEPOT STUFF COMES FROM GEORGIA, PRIMARILY CUSTOMER RETURNS BUT THERE ARE OCCASIONAL SHELF PULLS, DISCONTINUED ITEMS WHICH ARE NEW. USUALLY A TRUCKLOAD WILL HAVE ABOUT 15% TO 25% DEFECTIVE, BROKEN OR MISSING PARTS.
TO THOSE WHO BUY $10K. MORE OR LESS; I'M GOING TO LET YOU IN ON A LITTLE SECRET WHICH ISN'T SO SECRET ANYMORE. IF YOU HAVE A RESALE NUMBER FROM YOUR STATE YOU CAN BUY TRUCKLOADS OF HOME DEPOT ITEMS, WALMART ITEMS AND OTHER NATIONAL CHAINS WHICH SELL THEM DIRECT THROUGH A COMPANY CALLED B-STOCH. B-STOCK HANDLES THE ADMINISTRATIVE PART OF THE AUCTION AND MERCHANDISE IS SHIPPED OUT FROM THE STORES WAREHOUSES. YOU EVEN GET TO SEE A MANIFEST OF EVERY ITEM IN THE AUCTION YOU ARE BIDDING ON AND THE RETAIL COST. THEY HAVE YELLOW, GREEN OR RED STICKERS ON ALL THE ITEMS THAT WERE RETURNED. THE COST OF TRUCKLOADS HAVE GONE WAY UP IN THE LAST COUPLE YEARS, ESPECIALLY TOOLS.
IT IS A LOT OF WORK BUT YOU CAN AND WILL MAKE MONEY. SET A PRICE ON EACH LOAD YOU WANT TO BID ON AND DO NOT GO OVER IT. YOU CAN WATCH AUCTIONS FOR A FEW WEEKS, DOWNLOAD MANIFESTS AND PRETTY MUCH FIGURE OUT WHAT PRICE MAKES SENSE FOR YOUR CUSTOMER BASE. REMEMBER, THERE WILL BE A SHIPPING CHARGE FOR THE TRUCKLOADS FROM ARIZONA, ILLINOIS OR A STATE CLOSE TO THERE AND GEORGIA.
GOOD LUCK TO EVERYONE, I HOPE YOU ALL DO WELL. I LOVE SUCCESS STORIES. I'VE EVEN HELPED MY COMPETITION GET OUT OF CLOSING DOWN AND BANKRUPTCY TO NOW MAKING MONEY.
CUSTOMER SERVICE IS THE KEY TO THIS BUSINESS, YOU DONT HAVE TO GIVE CASH REFUNDS BUT YOU WILL NEED TO OFFER STORE CREDIT WITH A WEEK OR TWO. ENJOY

My experiences have been very good...3 e-bay purchases ...Merchandise was as advertised, shipped quickly...Actually no complaints...Great bargains ...You have to realize...This is " all "salvage" merchandise...It got to them for liquidation...For a "reason"...Read the descriptions...Look at the pictures..."closely" ...You probably won't have any problems...As stated...Mine were very satisfactory...Exactly as described & pictured...If...I would of had a problem...Who knows ? ...After reading the negative comments... Recently, what i have noticed...The shipping costs have skyrocketed dramatically...Maybe that is where they are going to make up "profits"...Do your homework diligently...You might be like me...Be very satIsfied...

I agree, ex employees should not be allowed to air grievances under the "I don't work there anymore" type of thing. Job separation exists on many levels and one-sided comments from released employees should be taken with the appropriate grain of salt. In any case, I buy from there all the time and as a reseller, I can assure you that all most all of the stuff is as advertised. This type of material offers the right buyers an endless well of savings and opportunities, the problem seems to be that it also attracts the type of buyers that should not be using this type of service as well and that's where the disconnect comes in. I live in Buffalo and they have been around in one form or another for 20 years. The numbers show that 10k+ people a year like them and 10-20 have an issue. That's the official eBay numbers anyway. So the 10-20 people in the last (top of page and down dates) 8-9 years is hardly a valuable list. I see the same thing in my business every day. People do not want to read and adhere to policies that are stated clearly and they want to blame everyone and everything for issues at the backend. As for ex employees? Well, I could type about that for hours but I will spare you the time. Just my 2 cents

I buy from there all the time and love the stuff. If everything is so bad why is the feedback rating so high? It appears from my view that 10s of 1000s of people seem to love the place. Ex-employees should never be allowed to post complaint about a company that's why they are "ex employees" the one above actually uses misogynist tones about woman in his writing. I think Empire Liquidators is awesome and so do the vast majority of people that buy from them obviously.

Sorry but I was in the worst place in my life while I was working for this company. I was working 80 hours a week in a combination of jobs and this was the absolute WORST employer I have EVER had. In my entire life. I had worked for the same people for years previously and to this day. Never have I been treated as poorly as I was with this company. It is absolutely asinine the way they treat their employees. And the boss is completely racist and unprofessional.

Wow! I was thinking of purchasing something from them on e bay! I am so glad I did my homework now! I read these reviews and after what I have read I wouldn't take anything from them if they paid ME to get it out of their warehouse. Thank you everybody for letting me know before I purchased anything from these people. I have not had a bad experience from e bay yet and now I am going to research every one I buy anything from!

They stored the purchases till there was a semi load to be shipped to me. on the last load they ended up shorting me out of #3600 + in merchandise and I also had to pay for a full semi shipment that was only half there. was told there was nothing he could do. do not buy from or trust them. especially the guy who handles my account. his name is Pat. called the people I was told to call and never got anyone or a return on my message. revenge will be sweet.

After winning an Ebay bid for a stove top, they put an additional line on my charge card just to bring the amount up to list price. Overt Fraud and rather stupid actually. The non-working stove top was returned at my expense and both charges reversed, the fraud being reported, causing my CC to be cancelled and regenerated.

I worked at this place for 6 months because I was desperate, and I have no idea how I made it that long. They treat their employees like dirt, and pay them dirt. They can't manage to hold employees for more than 2-3 weeks, the good ones quit and the weak ones get fired with no real chance to improve. Consequently literally 80% of the employees are brand new at any given time and have no idea what they're doing. Everyone there is absolutely miserable all day, unsurprisingly.
The company effectively gets in all the stuff home depot or sears was going to throw in the garbage, but sells to them dirt cheap instead. Effectively the employees sort through bins of garbage to see what they can get away with selling. Most of the stuff is broken or recalled. Much of it is returned items that may be ok. Once in a while some stuff is just junk the store couldn't manage to sell even at clearance costs.
The employees test the garbage to see if it's still usable and then throw it up on the internet.. Employees do a quick glance over of the item and will describe if there's any noticable defects, and note whether it powers on. Usually the employees are not trained to test whether some of the items work effectively beyond that.
I will say this- if you need a heater those usually work and the get a ton of them and sell $300 for like $30, so for some things it may be a steal. But most of it is garbage, and I'd never support this company, they have terrible work ethic. This was without a doubt by FAR the worst job I've ever had.

Empire Liquidators Horrible and very rude service!

I ordered and paid for a clock 2 months ago! It took a long time to receive and no one was answering my emails. They told me it was because it went to their junk folder.

1 - a reputable company would check that...
2 - I sent emails through ebay so they shouldn't have gone to the junk folder.

Finally I receive the product and it doesn't work. I spend 2 more weeks trying to contact them and get their phone number. I file a paypal complaint. Finally they send me a phone number.
I call. I'm told to return the item for a new one. Another month has gone by and emails back and forth with no answers. I finally call and get a hold of a very rude young lady named Dawn.
She told me that they do not even have that clock. She was going to refund me the money.
She better refund the amount that I paid for shipping back also!

Empire Liquidators How to get a response

When I first started purchasing things on ebay, being wet-behind-the-ears, so to speak, I bid on and won a canopy from Empire Liquidators. I did not realize this company doesn't ship to Hawaii. I apologized for wasting their time and the bid was dropped.

A few days later during my routine check of my checking account I noticed almost $80 was withdrawn from Empire Liquidators. I attempted to contact them and received an email showing a fedex shipment with my product. That was fine except a week later, the shipment had been supposedly signed for on a different island to a company I could not find any form of contact for.

I contacted Empire Liquidators, no answer, no response to emails. Finally when I thought I'd have to accept the loss of funds, I left a negative feedback on ebay for the company. I was immediately contacted and the problem was correct. I got my refund and the negative feedback was withdrawn. Funny how quickly you get a response when you put a black mark on their public record!

Empire Liquidators is my first truly bad experience on EBay. I bought a Yakima Magejoe Bike rack. The ad was completely false and misleading. My initial inspection showed that the item was in working condition. However, upon closer inspection I noticed that things were not as they appeared and as they were described in the item description. First, the item was listed as in “New or Unused Condition”. Clearly the item has been used for sometime. 2nd, the stitching that holds on one of the hooks was torn apart and the hook was missing. This hook is one of 2 hooks on a single fastener/line that creates tension to hold the bike rack in place. Unfortunately this missing hook renders that rack unusable. There is no way that rack would hold in place while traveling with a bike load. 3rd, the bike rack is designed to hold 3 bikes. Each bike is secured by 3 straps. There should be a total of 9 securing straps and I only received 6. That is one bike short.
4th, I contacted there Costumer Service Dept via email and received and automatic email response (must happen often to automatic generic response). Email stated to call their warehouse which I did on 2 cessions. Each time I was told they could not help and got transferred to a voicemail in operations. 2 voicemails later and still no response. 5th, I ultimately had to call Yakima directly to order replacement parts. All and all this cost me more than if I had gone to my local Dicks Sporting Goods and bought a new rack. Thank you Yakima for being so helpful and for having the parts in stock. Below are my email correspondences with Empire Liquidators. A youtube.com video is soon to come.

Dear empire_liquidators,

I writing to inform you of a problem with the Yakima Mega Joe bike rack that I purchased on 9/4/09. My initial inspection showed that the item was in working condition. However, upon closer inspection I noticed that stitching that holds on one of the hooks was undone and the hook was missing. This hook is one of 2 hooks that create tension to hold the bike rack in place. Unfortunately this missing hook renders that rack unusable. I would be happy with an exchange for a fully functional rack or a full refund. The seller stated that the rack was inspected to have all working pieces. I feel that I should not have to have pay return shipping because the item was not as advertised.

I had problems with Empire Liquidators also. After a month of not receiving my purchase I tried contacting them with no response back. I had filed a claim with paypal and they did some investigating. I must say that I think they hired stupid people at paypal also because after weeks they tried to deny my claim. Bottom line is I wanted my money back because of no product in return. Well I did my own investigating and Empire sent paypal a bogus fedex tracking number. When I called Fedex the package was not even mine but listed to another address in my area. Needless to say I left a neg against Empire and they left one against me. Now how can they leave a neg on me when I paid for my purchase. Ebay changed the policy on that and I tried to fight it. I think Ebay is part of Empire because I have received alot of grief from ebay about it. I finally did get my money back after many phone calls and headaches. My lesson here: Stay away from Empire people. They are con artists and rip offs. Cheap crap that is usually busted up and they only take your money and lie.
