Kragen Auto Parts Scam Alert

   Wed, December 10, 2008 - 4:26 PM
I bought an air compressor from Kragen with a $20.00 rebate. I sent in the rebate per the instructions. After quite a few weeks, they mailed out a rebate check for the $20.00.

I just saw a $20.00 debit and a $7.00 debit on my account. I called and they said Kragen STOPPED PAYMENT on the rebate check! You have got to be kidding me!

Obviously, CSK stores are off limits to me forever. Screw those A**holes!

The stores they do business under are O'Reilly Auto Parts, Checker Auto Parts, Schuck's Auto Supply, Kragen Auto Parts and Murray's Discount Auto Stores.

they have to give you a reason for the stop payment. i know it's proll not worth it but you could take them to small claims court. maybe just threaten to? they would be liable to show a valid reason for stopping the check, prove fraud on your part, or some other such failure to comply to the rebate procedure. might even be liable for 3 times the amount of the check (plus court costs). it might be worth it to at least make some noise.

POX ON THEM!!!!!
