>50 minutes each way just to get the gift even if he

>HIM $5,000 and he would do an independent review of
>Select Your Gifts and give us a favorable report
>because he had just spent 90 minutes understanding
>that “we give great value to the consumer”… “what more
>could they want for test-driving a car”.
>
>Ed went on to tell me that we would get “all kinds of

>Select Your Gifts, but he would never say a good word
>about the auto dealer because “he hated auto dealers”.

Complaint About a breeder in Brazil

Serra de Itanhandu Kennel in Brazil
Gerson Ribeiro Junqueira de Barros
also called Cachaca Guapiara

Took $1300.00 and when I cancelled the order for the puppy a fila brasileiro he would not send the money back. He would not send me another puppy when I asked and would not x-ray the puppy either, at four months to ensure I was not getting a dysplastic puppy. I cancelled the transaction because the majority of his offspring are dysplastic and need to be replaced. He continues to send puppies to the US but fails to honor some replacements. I found out about people's experiences after I sent him the money Western Union in July 2006.
