Yes, NexTag is indeed rigged!

December 4, 2009

In a previous post I asked the question ‘Is NexTag rigged?‘. I posed that question after I had been ripped off by buying counterfeit software from a seller that had a good rating and positive comments on NexTag. Following this bad experience I attempted to post a negative review for that seller on NexTag but my review never got published. I repeated my attempt multiple times making sure my review did not violate any of NexTag’s rules but all to no avail. I contacted NexTag and complained – that was 6 weeks ago. I explained the story of how I was ripped off by someone listed on their site conducting illegal activities and using their website to make themselves look legitimate. They strung me along saying they were looking into the matter but despite multiple emails back and forth nothing ever happened. A NexTag representative even commented on my previous post on this blog but it was the same old story, ‘We’re looking into this matter’, and at the end of the day they did not remove the trader from their site, they did not publish my negative review, they did absolutely nothing!

So the only conclusion I can draw is that yes NexTag is rigged. They are an organisation with no moral or ethical standards that favour illegal con-artists over the consumer. An illegal merchant can easily build up a profile on NexTag that makes them look like an above board legitimate trader. The reviews are controlled so that many of the negative reviews will not get published. Bottom line – NexTag is not the consumers friend – never trust a purchase decision based on anything you read on NexTag!

    I had the same experience with NextTag, seems like they post reviews only if its good. Seem like a scam. I wanted to post a negative review about camerakings.com but they never display it. This is horrible.

    yep. sounds like Nextag is not legit itself. i suspect there is a lot of palm grease being spread to Nextag.

    Thanks for this, they had such a good deal on a Phillips dictaphone that questioning their legitimacy was my first thought. You’ve just saved me some money and time.

    Something is really wrong with Nextag. They have sellers scamming and defraudung consumers right and left. I have tried to write a review on a low-life seller who tried to rip me off on two pairs of Dansko sandals ($258) who fed me endless excuses for not shipping the shoes I ordered…waited as long as 60 days. Nextag would NOT post my review, which was negative. I had to initiate a charge back with my credit card company over the matter. I will NEVER use Nextag again.

    To Nextag: Get your shxt cleaned up and weed out the trash hiding in your yard.

      Hi Jason,
      Thanks for you comment. Yes you are right, something is indeed really wrong with Nextag – they are in collusion with scammers and pirates and won’t post negative reviews.

    I placed an order for a power supply for one of my laptop computers. The vendor charged my credit card without sending me a confirmation e-mail. Furthermore, I contacted the vendor (as it says on nextag.com) and they replied that it was Nextag’s fault. The address of the vendor is some random house in Los Angeles. Looks like I’m down $40 now…. Nextag is full of bad people trying to take your money. BEWARE!
