I hereby withdraw and recant all comments about overstock.com. I can't have it both ways.

They paid me several thousand dollars and a "sincere" apology for the "mix-up". It seems hasty and out of proportion. There's something very, very strange going on, here. They couldn't have acted so quickly, unless the executives at overstock had prior knowledge of malfeasance. I wonder if someone very high in the chain of command at overstock, took a calculated risk made a shady deal, and is knowingly misleading consumers. They think they've heard the last from me; they are wrong.


This sounds very fishy on all counts...
If they paid you to shut up, you are violating your agreement, it would seem...
And it seems odd that they'd pay you out of the CEO's PERSONAL account??!! That's just KRAZY!

Most of what I've bought on Overstock was NOT what they claimed and I will never read another review and buy something because some people are way off base!

Shame on Overstock!!

Some recourse for all the foam I've bought and am not using. I plan to make high-end dog beds and sell them at Farmers Market.

Gee, it looks like some corporate hit man may have "rubbed Pete out". (Look at all his previous posts.)

Jim: One of the reasons that I like participating in this forum is the fact that the moderators do a good job of moderating.

Don't ask for any more details. My hands are legally tied. I'll be leaving the forum for good, now. So any pm's will go unanswered. My only mission here was to expose Venus-gate. That mission is complete. I no longer serve a function in this forum. Goodbye everyone; sleep well, be well. Pete
