They are all the same!

I have been trying to work with Gold Elements (part of Dead Sea Premier) for seven months, and they continue to deny any culpability in the scheme the salesclerk used to defraud me of more than $3500. On August 31, 2018, I was approached by Jasmine, a salesclerk from Cocoage, an affiliated enterprise, and she offered to show me how I could use her product to reduce the puffiness and lines around my eyes. Stupidly, I agreed to let her apply the product to one of my eyes. It looked a bit better, and I agreed to purchase the product. Jasmine then told me that she hoped that she could offer me an incredible opportunity to meet with a skin-care specialist, Micheal, who was in town for just that day. She raved about how much he had done for her mother (who, Jasmine claimed, lived in Brooklyn). Again, I allowed myself to listen to her. I followed her to the Gold Elements store, where Micheal cajoled me (through flattery, shaming, and duplicity) into purchasing a contract under which I could get product refills whenever I wanted them ("even every week, " he promised) and could get a monthly facial at a local Gold Elements store. This is where the fraudulent misrepresentation happens: when I asked him where I could get the facials in New Jersey, he told me that I could do so at a Gold Elements store in the Jersey Gardens Mall, another Simon property. I had no way to check the veracity of his report, and I relied on his statement when I signed for the Diamond contract (noted as a Gold contract on the receipt, but Micheal gave me the "coveted" Diamond card at the price of the Gold--another shameless sales ploy). Since I was flying back to New Jersey, I requested that the products be shipped to me.

Once I got back to my daughter's house and began to verify the details Micheal had given me, I realized that I had been lied to. I immediately began to call customer service (no answer) and left messages. I also began my email campaign. I requested that the products not be shipped to me. The company lied about the status of the shipment and refused to cancel it. Eventually, I learned enough to know that I could never exercise that contract in New Jersey (there is NO Gold Elements store in my state) and that all Micheal had told me was a lie. I relied on his statements when I made the purchase, and thus I was a victim of fraudulent misrepresentation, as he clearly knew what he was doing.

I have filed a complaint with the Nashville Better Business Bureau, the Tennessee Department of Commerce and Insurance - Division of Consumer Affairs, the FTC, ecommerce.gov, and the Nashville courts (small claims). To date, the store has refused the small claims court warrant, although the owner's lawyer has written a letter clearly intended to intimidate me into backing down. If anything, this missive fueled my resolve to pursue this company in court. Last week, I supplied the BBB of Nashville with a copy of the letter the lawyer sent me and detailed contact information for the store owner/president. Since I am 65 years old, I have additional protections under consumer laws, and I know that I have the law on my side. I'll update this report when I hear more from the various agencies and Assaf Amar's (owner's) lawyer.

While walking through the Dolphin Mall located in Miami Florida, I was approached by a sales person working at a kiok selling Premier Dead Sea Quartz products. After insisting that I experience the brief demonstration I was told that the peel and moisturizurer was selling for $89.00 each. However, the sales person, a seemingly "nice" young man by the name of Maldini said that what he would do for me is, if I bought the peel for $89. he would throw in the moisturizer for free. When I did not jump at the "opportunity" he then offered to reduce the peel to $49.00 and throw in a soap. I told him that I needed to think about it lol.

Luckily, I am one of those individuals who like to research products before spending my hard earned cash. I typed in Reviews on Premier Dead Sea Quartz and to my utter amazement, I was reading a review that felt like a bad deja vu. The reviewer wrote about her experience which occured back in 2013. It is now September 2015 and the scam is still alive and thriving right in Miami Florida. I say scam because one can find the same product that the "nice" Maldini was trying to sell for $89.00 is available for $49.00 on Amazon.

I also had a very similar experience at Diventi Bella LLC also located in the Dolphin Mall but it is located in an actual store not a kiosk. Here again a very aggressive sales person lures the unsuspecting into the store and when you ask about the price of an item, there is no visible price tag but they take you to a computer screen to pull up a price tag. There must be some law against businesses operating without having an actual sales tag/price on items. How does the consumer know that they are not being taken advantage of?

On the same day I also visited Miami International Mall and got a fantastic makeover at the MAC store by Aldo. Would you believe after receiving my absolute flawless make-over there was a sales lady at a kiosk becknoning me to try some face product! "Lady, lady, come, have a seat" and I'm thinking, have a seat to do what exactly? I just got a make-over and I'm flawless, there is no way in hell I'm about to let you ruin my make-up.

In closing while it is nice to have a friendly smiling face, my advise is caveat emptor which simply means, buyer beware! If a deal seems too good to be true, it usually is.

Happy shopping everyone.
