I wasn't anticipating so many orders so I didn't have all the supplies I would need. They told me oh well and as a company, you need to have the supplies BEFORE you take the money. They never said it was illegal but that is what they told me. I had to end up paying for everything without that money as they still have it to this day, that is why I thought maybe it was illegal.
Illogical, yes, ethical, no. But who says they are really doing that, it just adds up.
