Hi, I'm Billy Mays....

If a commercial has this twit as the spokesperson, run – run far and run fast. Run, Forest, Run!  This shameless huckster pushes the biggest cons on the web – you know, those trashy things you “can’t live without” like the “Slider Station” and the “Garden Weasel.”   Weasel is a good title for this snake-oil salesman.  The “shipping and handling” charges for the products and the “free” extras will break you. Typically the shipping and handling is 200%-500% more than the cost of the original item.

For example, my girlfriend was duped into purchasing a Garden Weasel. They tossed is a free second set.  Merchandise total: $32.00.  Shipping and handling $130 – for a 15 lb box!

The order was cancelled the same day. They shipped anyway – we refused the box. They refunded the $32.00 – and kept the $130 shipping and handling!

This guy only represents scams – don’t believe me? Just Google him – or any of the products he sells. You’ll find THOUSANDS of complaints!
