Carico Cookware





Patrick of Hopkinsville KY (10/17/08)
This man called us out of the blue and offered us a free Dinner Theater. We agreed to go. He was very chummy and confiding. I thought he was annoying and was on my guard. We had to drive to Clarksville from our place, about 30 miles. Once we got there we entered into the side of his garage into a kitchen restuarant. A very strange little man was waiting for us there. His shameless sales pitch varied between filthy heterosexual innuendos, one time alluding to sex with premature pubescent girls and piches for salvation in Jesus Christ. The high point of the evening was when he turned and farted loudly in our direction. Was that some sort of sick sales tactic by embarassing us? We left as soon as we could find an opening.

My wife and I feel violated. We wasted an entire evening on a false pretext and were subjected to an advanced display of mental and spiritual degradement.

Sometime in January or so 2008, We were approach by a friend that was selling Carico products. After telling her all the horror histories that we've had with a water filter which caused to ruin our credit at the time, She kept insisting that needed the sell because was going through a bad time. Finally we bought a rapid cooker that keeps dripping water and does not gain pressure; even after three attends of replacing the top, I gave up ending up losing 400.00.

We lost a friend, lost our money and lost our time trying to fix the problem.

This incident hapenned in Aguadilla, PR. After 4 hours of dealing with a Carico representative and after he told me that if I did not purchase one of their products, I was told that my nephew was not able to get employment with the company if no purchases were made. I signed a contract. I was told that I had 30 days to return it, if not satisfied. I purchased a juicer extractor. It was not what I expected, and was unable to use it due to pain on my right hand.

I talked to my nephew, who talked to his supervisor, and his supervisor told him that I couldn't return the juicer. He told my nephew that I can exchange it for another product of equal value, but I was not interested in obtaining any other product from a company who I feel misrepresented themselves, and used inappropriate tactics to make a sell.

I made a deposit for 200.00, plus I paid over 30 in attempting to return the juicer by certified mail. Carico refused to accept the juicer and returned it to me. I was also told by one of the workers, when I tried to make a complaint, that no one forced me to sign a contract, and I was obligated to pay.

I am constantly been harassed by Carico. This matter was turned over to a collection agency because I refused to pay over 900 they said I owed them. I am diabetic with history of high blood pressure, and this annoying situation is constantly causing me to get upset and sick.

I been part of Carico Int. for almost 3 years and I'm very upset to read all this nonsense messages. The company has a policy of 3 days cancellation in the back of the same order ticket. Also the company calls every single customer before sending any products and when a customer wants to cancel the order is put on hold until the client speaks with the salesperson and resolves it. If the situation is not resolved the company cancels the order and makes a refund of the down payment. All orders have to be confirmed with the client.

I know there are people that entered the company and it didnt work for them but to tell the truth is not the company is the people. I have known to have a 5,000 and a 1,000 month. The ups and downs are not the companys fault but I. When you work and learn to organize yourself you can make a lot of money. I havent known of a person that works only 2 or 3 days and succeed in any business. Success is not over night it is over time.

Crystal of Pleasant View, TN July 25, 2008

Crystal of Pleasant View TN (07/25/08)
I entered my name in a drawing at the local H.G. Hills in Pleasant View, TN. I also entered my boyfriend's name and he received a phone call days later saying that he won the drawing and he won a trip to Gatlinburg. All he had to do was come to a dinner show and book the hotel. That day he and I went to the dinner show which turned out to be at a house, not a resturaunt as we assumed.

The man gave a presentation on cookware, cooked cabbage, carrots, Hawaiian fruit salad,and chicken. I didn't eat any of the meal because I thought he might poison us. My boyfriend did though and he's fine. I thought this is like the beginning of a lot of horror movies. Needless to say we refused to buy any cookware although we were informed that 8 out of 10 buy the cookware. We recieved a brochure to fill out for our free trip for filling out his report card and left.

I felt that it was a scam and instead of sending off the form to get a Reservation Validation Form I looked on the Internet to see if any complaints had been made. I thought it was a little funny that we had to send off 50 for a trip that he had won. I found this site and realized that another person visited the same David Foyer and had a luau just like we did. Down to the tee the very same event happened to us except we did not purchase the cookware! We will not be sending any money to them thanks to this site.

Fortuneatly, we only spent the money in gas, about 15 to get there and back. More importantly we lost a night with our 9 month old child (he was at his grandmother's house)
