Keisler files chapter 7
« on: January 17, 2014 - 03:42:01 PM »
Saw this on another forum I frequent. Between the feedback on that forum, on this one, and my personal experience with Keisler - I am not surprised.

IMHO I would be getting that credit card charge reversed ASAP unless they have already shipped

Chapter 7 bankruptcy is usually dissolving/liquidating the business, unlike Chapter 11 which is to restructure, but continue in operation

"This seller is currently away until Jan 23, 2014, and is not processing orders at this time. You can add this item to your watch list to purchase later"

I contacted VISA...They have not put any charges against my card. I asked "How can I prevent them from putting any charges on in the future?"
VISA's answer...."change my credit card number" :screwy:

I asked "Can't I just wait to see if they put a charge on first, then put a stop payment on it?''
VISA: "Yes of course you can do that..."

Duh...Why didn't you just say that in the first place.....Darn new CDN's... :blah:

Here is a link to all the creditors.  I feel for the folks that lost all the money (deposits) on kits.

That was a pretty large list of creditors!  Ouch!   :eek4:  Glad my name is not on that and I hope no one here is but I'm sure someone here will be!
