    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

mike stafani bad seller poor custemer service

The only time Dale's grammar and spelling had any relevance in this thread was early on when it was very difficult to understand exactly what had occurred (do to a poorly worded explanation and poor communication). Now that everything has been cleared up and a refund has been promised, it doesn't amount to a hill o' beans at this point.

I thought it was OK considering Milly The Moron came along to post off topic insults and condemn him for his spelling when she doesn't seem to spell much better herself.

This spelling and punctuation crap Dale is taking hits for is a bunch of crap in my book. He has been ripped off and it has nothing to do with his spelling.

It wasn't Dale's punctuation, spelling, or grammar that prompted my reply; it was the general content and tone. Maybe he and "Milly" both need to review the throwing-stones-from-your-glass-house thing, but I stand by my advice to Dale. I guess he has every right to defend himself, but I think he would serve himself better by refraining from assessing others' apparent intelligence by the contents of their posts. Know what I mean? If he'd left out the part I bolded below, I wouldn't have bothered with a reply.

.................................................. .......................well you wasn't asked to read or open your mouth to say something pointless...it isn't about spelling its about me getting riped off......so what your saying is its OK to rip somebody off if they cant spell.you can open your mouth about spelling but cant comment on getting riped off ?showes how stupid you really are pfffffffffffffffffff

Dale
When you do get your refund are you going to recant all of these things you say?
No you won't yet you'll still have your refund.
I am waiting for DHL to credit my account for our deal.
You should have taken our first offer to give you your money back!

And what if DHL doesn't credit your account? Is Dale then screwed? Are you seriously suggesting that you guys don't have $175.00 in your bank account to process this refund immediately?

You and you're husband are both spiteful lying sacks of crap. You committed to sending Dale a refund weeks ago and it was not contingent on DHL crediting your account.

Recant my ass. Dale was right from the start. I would link this post to every inquiry ever made about you guys on the BOI even if I did get my refund. If Dale is smart that's exactly what he'll do.

.........................................................................i didn't hire dhl why should we Waite? and yes ill recant the rip off part. but not the poor customer service.you have to ask yourself was 175.00 really worth the 10000 people who have read this? and what does you getting a credit have to do with my refund.that you offered on the 19th of may and mike offered the 22nd of may...its now June 18th
and still no refund....lets go to mikes statement and post .it was.... now that the long weekend is over you ll be getting refunded your money..why the delay???????????dhl doesnt have my money .you and mike do :angry:
 
It's been said many times before that it's not how many good deals you have, but how you deal with one that goes badly (I think that's Cat's favorite saying...she may have even said it here already). Even if Dale was a difficult customer, Mike and Antoinette screwed up here!!!
 
The facts ...

Fact: Dale can't type or spell worth a damn. I think even he gets it.
Fact: Dale has something of hot head and a loose tongue and should probably think before he speaks (types) sometimes. I think even he gets it. Remember that, Dale!
Fact: Dale was given an invalid DHL tracking number. When Antoinette sent the correct number (in response to Dale's email of Friday the 9th to advise THEM of the invalid tracking number), she told him the roaches would be delivered by 5PM Saturday, May 10th.
Fact: DHL shows delivery to "residence door" on Friday, May 9th at 3:14 PM. Obviously Dale was not expecting it, based on the info he'd been provided.
Fact: A refund to Dale has been referenced time and time again. First by Antoinette, then by Mike ... now DHL is supposedly handling it?

Antoinette Stefani, 5-19, Post #9 "As we stated the day this all happend I will be glad to send you a money order back, all you had to do was ask."

Antoinette Stefani, 5-21, Post #50 (this is from an email to Dale either 5-9 or 5-10) "At this point DHL says they will not have any answers for me for 72 business hours after receipt of the claim form, I just sent it before emailing you. Please give me the details of the other shippment in hopes we can solve the problem faster."

Mike Stefani, 5-22, Post #55, "Bottom line for Dale Ross, you will be refunded."

Mike Stefani, 5-27, Post #67, "Dale The long weekend is over! As stated to you and this board a FEW TIMES now, your getting refunded your money!!!!!"

Mike Stefani, 6-13, Post #140, "Again you will be getting refunded your $175.00! Please quit your crying...you remind me of one of my 8 kids!!
DHL is taking care of this situation."

Antoinette Stefani, 6-18, Post #186, "Dale, When you do get your refund are you going to recant all of these things you say? No you won't yet you'll still have your refund. I am waiting for DHL to credit my account for our deal. You should have taken our first offer to give you your money back!"

This whole debacle may not be the Stefani's fault, but it certainly isn't Dale's fault either. The 72 hours for an "investigation" is long passed. The above quotes and statements look like nothing more than excuse-making, back-peddling, refusing to refund Dale yourselves because he did not request it in a more timely manner and now passing the buck to DHL. What a bunch of crap!
I can pay somebody in 5 minutes whether I write a check or use PayPal ... there is no excuse for him to have waited this long. And yeah, it looks a lot like poor customer service. As for placing an order (just to spite Dale) as I saw others post they were going to do ... nah.

You are doing a good job, Dale. If you go to google and type in Mikes Monitors, this thread is the first thing that pops up.
 
Hmmm....from reading Dale's posts...it is fairly easy to determine WHO is the problem.


*just a hint....Mike is not the problem....but someone (who does not understand the need for punctuation) does have a problem.

Mike Stefani = Good Guy...Good Product....Good Service!

Deal with Mike Stefani in confidence. You will be treated right.

Many years ago, I bought a BOAT LOAD of lobster roaches from Mike ...he was wonderful to deal with.

Just my 2 cents on this topic.
 
Hey Harlin, might want to read the whole thread . Mike is coming off looking like a total buttwheat.. If anything Mike is lucky that Dale came off that way, if he had waited till now to post this thread people here would be looking for Mike, with a barrel of warm tar and a bag of feathers.. Mikes customer service in this has at the very least Sucked.. Randy
 
Additionally, I think the key words of your post, Harlin, were "Many years ago ..".

Look at the vendors who, just a couple years ago, were given high marks and good guy posts here, but who later proved themselves to be unworthy of that praise and trust. It happens. Mike may well be "wonderful to deal with", however in this particular case, he is lacking in the "wonderful" department.

.......................................................................................you know Harlin when we spoke on the phone a couple months ago .you seemed like a smart and intelligent person.but after reading the moronic post you just made on 3 threads including this one i think differently now...how can you endorse a person who has shown himself to be a ripoff in this thread???????? .you yourself should dislike a thief more than others as you told me all the storeys ov how you got riped off on your imports..........and please show how I'm the problem.i didn't steel 175.00 from mikes monitors they stoled the money from me :angry: BOTTOM LINE MIKES MONOTORS IS A RIP OFF :yesnod: :yesnod: :yesnod: :yesnod: :yesnod:
