Sent in an Iphone for which I was to be paid $120.00. Never paid and cannot get customer service to respond by email. A Real RIPOFF...

I sent LONNIE two phones in original boxes June 15, 2009 in my own box using their pre-paid label. I checked on the website several times to see if my phones were received, and they weren't. On their website, however, it states that this sometimes happens and to email them specifics about your packages. Well, I have done that ...several times. I have yet to receive anything back from LONNIE about anything. And it seems as though the email address for customer service is null and void. I have heard a variety of feedback about this "company" but I can only go by my own experience. And my own experience is saying Ibuyphones.com IS A SCAM. I guess I should I researched who I was dealing with. Where are all the good citizens of the US of A????

BEWARE! I sent 4 phones in their pre-paid mailer on 7/9/2009 and to this day, their website shows they still haven't received my phones. On top of that, I have sent (what they call) customer service 5 emails inquiring of the status but have never received a reply. I should've received $172 but of course, nothing! I just hope anyone that is considering doing business with this "so called" company checks this site first.

So, I thought that I would get some extra cash for our old cell phones after switching networks. I looked online and thought I picked the right one, ibuyphones.com. I had a slight inkling that it may be a scam so I took pictures of my phones and all info before sending. My phones safely arrived to ibuyphones at the beginning of December. I waited patiently until the beginning of January to contact them about the status of my order. No response. I sent another note, slightly more agitated, no response.

Now, I like to talk directly to people who have done me wrong so I tried to find the phone number for this place and guess what? Conveniently they only do communication through email. It was then I knew it was a scam. None-the-less I sent the same note to them repeatedly for a week straight.

At this point it isn't even about the money; it is the fact that this scam artist gets away with it. I could have donated my phones to a charity for people who really need them; instead I donated them to some guy who obviously makes a living being a lying SOB.

So watch out people, this guy who runs ibuyphones is a real winner. I would make sure you are not getting scammed by his other 36 websites either. To Lonnie, the scam artist, you're a real big man. Get a real job and seek professional help.

I sent in two cell phones in July 08 and was promised a check within 2 - 3 weeks and it is now January 09 and still have never received the check. Supposely they have mailed a check 3 times according to two different people, the last check was supposed to be mailed the end of December. I have filed a complaint with the BBB, but that did no good. I do not understand how a company can still be in business when they are actually stealing from everyone who is trusting them. I am really tired of messing with them, but I am sure all the other people who lost phones and money are two. I am not sure where to go from here. I thought about contacting a TV news station in California and see if they have a "call for help".
