You're a Tent Thief

[@NubianP6]

So, she’s “bad mouthing” him, and calling him a thief, and he decided to make it TRUE by withholding her refund? 🤷🏽‍♀️ #MakeItMakeSenseSir

[@TopherGrant]

That's the whole, "I get blamed for it all the time so I might as well do it" mentality. But we all know they wanted to do it anyway so it's a bad excuse

[@tempgirl00711]

Not sure. Think timing was the issue, she pulled the transaction and it showed he got the refund and when she spoke to him to ask him hey did u get the refund yet. He lied. She already had confirmation. And the amount was less than what she gave him. So if it were me I'd say the same thing.. wouldn't you? If u gave the loser 1205. And he only spent 970 or whatever on the tent? That means he stole some of the money. Then when u verified the refund was sent earlier in the month but he's telling you nothing was refunded at the end of the month, u really cool with that? I wouldn't be

[@nadeawilliams7749]

lol

[@tiaratauaese6197]

He volunteered to get a tent but needs to get paid also? He's scamming. He should alerted her immediately that he wasn't ordering it from Lowes. WTF his promoting got to do with a tent?

[@arianefr78]

He secretly gave himself a finders fee and then when the tent had to be returned and thus refunded it meant he would have to refund her the full amount and lose out on his finders fee, whereas had he been upfront and told her he wanted a finders fee and she had agreed then he would have kept that fee even after returning and refunding her. He's just angry his scam didn't work out...

[@jinxychisparkles4526]

She could have bought the tent from overstock herself he lied and told her he worked for Lowe's and could get a discount for her I'm pretty sure this is a con he's used on alot of people to make easy money sad really

[@marygray7422]

For everyone saying she shouldn't have returned the tent after using it, 1,200.00 ain't chump change. If I buy a tent for over a grand then I better be able to use it for more than 3 months. I'd return it too if it broke with normal use

[@feyfantome]

Absolutely. She didn’t return it because she didn’t want or need it after using it, she returned it because it was defective, the poles collapsed, and made it unusable. It’s not at all unreasonable to return defective merchandise

[@jesseleighmiddleton2111]

Right!

[@PhoenixForceTravelAgency]

[@ginoasci]

he still did all the work. she still made money she never would have made without the tent. how is the guy so bad, just because he helps restaurants make money? yeah, you’re right, what a jerk. the nerve of him assisting businesses make more money. she’s the mother of God and deserves people to serve her hand and foot. he wasn’t fast talking, he diss res her out of money, he helped increase her income. he didn’t charge her more than the going rate for the tent either. i think she’s greedy and selfish. even Doug faked her about using the tent for three months and expecting a full refund and if it was fair….she sidestepped that question by saying that overstock refunds everything, so in her mind it’s ok to have him find it, order it, set it up, she makes money off of it for three months, then gets a full refund, and she doesn’t pay him anything. SHE IS GREEDY AND CHEAP.

i think he did the right thing considering he helped her mike more money and he made squat. do you expect to get paid when you work or do you work for free?

[@inukoko2012]

That tent should not have broken in 3-4 months. $1200 is a lot for a tent. Not only that once he found out Lowes didn’t have any more tents he should’ve told her or gave her her money back before hand and she could’ve bought the tent herself on overstock. She only gave him the initial $400 because she thought He could get one from Lowes.

[@davidewersphotography1013]

you are thinking of a camping tent. The kind of tent she is talking about can run into the the many thousands.

[@inukoko2012]

@@davidewersphotography1013 Either way, they showed the tent and it looked nice but there is no way that tent should’ve broken in that amount of time.

[@The_Real_Mier]

3 months vs ‘years and years’…. I’m sure you can figure out that difference by yourself. Also: it’s not possible to make any judgment of the quality of this particular tent just by looking at a picture within a video clip, let alone claim that this tent is the same as the ones your hubby owns, except that this one too has 4 corners…. You obviously weren’t sure your comment would be believable while writing it, since you felt that you had to strengthen your argument (that the quality of this tent was questionable) by making up some causes for it to be broken: ‘the wind’ and (coming straight out of the magical fairytale-land within your own skull) ‘crazy people climbing the poles’. The fact that your hubby happily accepts that a tent of that price breaks down within 3 months time, says more about your guy than about the tent… And also maybe about the irresponsible way you guys seem to handle your belongings….after all: you mention ‘(crazy) people climbing the poles’ as if that is something everybody does with tents like these… What a weird comment.
