We purchased a refurbished treadmill. Over $3k. Treadmill was severely damaged during delivery because it was dropped on the driveway. Company acknowledged the damage and 3 months later has not fully repaired the damage caused by their delivery team. We have exchanged many emails and phone calls regarding this issue. They stopped responding to my inquiries to have this repaired under the 6 month warranty. Complete communication blackout. At the last minute of delivery they demanded to be paid in full with check despite the credit card info they took. This is part of the scam. See other negative reviews below. DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY
DO NOT EVER do business with Fitness Equipment Depot Worldwide or any of John Greeley's "corporations." John Greeley and his long time accomplice, Denise Barry, have done "business" under 11 different corporate names (see below) over the past 20 years to scam, steal and cheat customers, the IRS, New York State Department of Taxation, banks, credit card companies, merchant processors, and other corporations. FEDWW is not even a registered corporation with the state of New York because it operates under CAC Fitness Inc and Zachleigh Fitness. Each time one of John's corporations accrues too much debt and liabilities, the company folds or files bankruptcy, and John and Denise start anew.
John sells equipment he does not have in stock. He sends customers damaged equipment and then blames the shipping company, leaving the customer and the shipping company to battle it out. When customers cancel because they get the wrong equipment, damaged equipment, or John can't find what he sold because he never had it in stock to begin with, he charges a 20% restocking fee, so essentially he makes a profit just by someone signing a contract. When international customers get ripped off, they end up with a total loss because it would cost them too much money to fight a lawsuit in the US. John will also send a check to people for equipment he buys from Ebay or Craig's List and request that the customer pay the shipping company (him again) with the extra money he paid. When the person wires money to the shipping company (a.k.a him), John's check bounces, so then the customer is not only out the money for the equipment they thought they sold, but also the money they sent to the shipping company. John "refurbishes" equipment with cheap paint and parts that will not last. Don't ever accept a check from any of John's company because it will bounce. STAY AWAY!
2. CAC Fitness Inc. (under John's sister name, Elizabeth Walter) - currently John, Liz and this business is being accused of stealing over $300,000 worth of equipment. See pacermonitor.com/public/…
3. Col-G Fitness (filed for bankruptcy for over $1.1 - 10 MILLION dollars of liabilities). See plainsite.org/dockets/2n…
4. ZKJ Fitness
5. Zachleigh Fitness (operating under Michael Magner, John's long time friend)
There are NUMEROUS reports on Rip Off Report, Better Business Bureau, Glass Door, Complaints Board - just search John's name or one of the companies above. The District Attorney's in NY have also received numerous complaints, but somehow he is still doing "business" - REPORT HIM if you are one of John Greeley's victims. NEVER DO ANY BUSINESS WITH ANY OF JOHN GREELEY'S COMPANIES.
They ruined the opening date of my business. terrible communication after they get your money. Before they will call you every 15 minutes to get it. placed my ordered and gave months of leway. The day my order was supposed to be delivered. they showed up with 30 percent of it and it was worn the wrong color and unsatisfactory. then they told me they dont have mY equipment and dont have a date on when they can have it DELIVERED and expect me to pay for the trash they sent me. They gave bad options that just would have delayed my opening even more. If you are trying to open your own fitness business i would only reccomend this company if you want to thave someone try and destoy your dreams.
