Hi! Sorry - didn't quite know where to put this...

I'm from Australia and I've been rorted by an American online-clothing company. I was looking for some advice on who to contact and file consumer complaints with?

The website is www.label-la.com and they used a picture of the Meghan Noland cami as worn by Rachel Bilson on the OC (i.e. it had lots of lace and appliques) which I am obsessed with, however they sent me the ready to wear version which I think is hideous (minimal lace and appliques). I had confirmed with them prior to purchase that I'd be getting exactly what was pictured. I told them it was misrepresentation and effectively bait & switch and they admitted to using the wrong pictures and that they'll change the pics (they've changed them now) but they can't refund paypal purchases due to their 'policies' :huh: (and I repeat - they KNEW they were in the wrong. I've got all emails and pics saved!)

The whole transaction has been a stressful ordeal and I'll never EVER deal with them again nor do I recommend them!

I've filed complaints with the Better Business Bureau and the Federal Trade Commission, Paypal (who don't deal with misrepresentation issues outside of eBay) and my bank but I want BLOOD for all the distress they've caused me :angry: so any advise on who else to contact would be appreciated!

TIA :heart:
 
Have you tried the Department for Consumer Protection?
 
You might also try posting about them online to warn others ... you want a Google on them to bring up some of your comments :D
 
It means to rip you off or misrepresent what they are selling.
