Hey Guys – I’ve got to warn you about a scam site I was taken by. “Wolverineboot.net” appears to be a legitimate site. They use 100% Wolverine corporate graphics and offer goods at very attractive prices. In a flurry of web searching I came across the site and was taken. The 3 or 4 beers in my belly did not help. In a moment of weakness I ordered a pair of 1000 mile boots and paid via CC. I was immediately suspicious when I received a suspicious confirmatory e-mail from China. O.K., I thought, perhaps this was a Chinese source dealing directly from Wolverine’s off-shore production. Perhaps it is legit. But then I thought, so how can they also offer such discounts on the U.S. made shoes? I did a bit of searching and found the site was hosted from Lithuania. This should have been clue enough but then I considered cloud hosting and thought perhaps I was over-reacting, as the other communication seemed sincere. Anyway, my order arrived today. I would up receiving a pair of cheap, featherweight, unbranded, Chinese-made, black lace-up work boots, with white lug soles. There was a notice in the box saying they were forced to substitute due to my first choice being out of stock. I was completely disgusted. Frankly, I wouldn’t pay $30 at Wal-mart for the boots they sent. So, I e-mailed the customer service address on the packing slip and of course it came back undeliverable. I was completely ripped off for a significant sum. I figure I likely have no recourse as I placed the order, received goods, but have no way to return the shipment or cancel payment. An expensive lesson learned. So please, DO NOT ORDER from Wolverineboot.net -- it is completely bogus.
