The biggest rip off from SLS Deals
Recently, I bought an iPad Pro as a Christmas present. SLS Deals claimed that the iPad I paid a large amount of money for was brand new and in the packaging. A couple of nights ago I was wrapping gifts, and I came across a handwritten note in the box. The note claimed that whoever had bought this iPad before me had sent it back. Therefore, I was concerned and checked inside the box containing the iPad. It was not packaged in plastic and had dirty finger prints all over the aluminum side. The charger that comes with the iPad was also dirty and not in the packaging. At this point I was ready to return the iPad, but I thought if the iPad contained no information it would be okay because cleaning the exterior is not a problem. So, I began to charge the iPad to see if it was wiped clean of information. I started setting up the item, and it seemed wiped but when I got to entering my Apple ID it did NOT work. The iPad alerted me that that there was already and iCloud account connected to this iPad and without its password I was not allowed to open the iPad. I was very angered by now because this present was expensive and I paid for it to be new. On Christmas Morning, today I called apple and asked if there were anything I could do to open this iPad, Apple claimed they could not tell if the iPad had be stolen, therefore they could not help us in anyway. So, my next idea was to call Amazon. Amazon's customer service told me that SLS Deals had claimed it was new and lied to me. The Amazon customer service was extremely helpful and are going to give me a full refund when I return the iPad. This is why you should never spend your hard earned money on SLS Deals, they are only trying to scam you.
