I too have ordered a Child Poem from the same company
Child Poem, Dept 8075
1862 Apperson Dr, P.O. Box 3200
Salem, VA 24153
I have yet to receive anything. I will check with my bank to see if they can get a clear signature on the cashed check.

I ordered a Childs Poem in 2006 and had no trouble getting it. I saved the ad but have no coupon to order another one. I am going to write and see if I can get one however. The Dept # I sent to was Dept 8966.

[brandon]

[Rose]

I was just going to order 3 of the Child Poem's; saw the ad on the back of a crossword puzzle book. Did you get yours yet? Don't want to order if it's a scam. The address I have is 1862 Apperson Dr. Dept. 8112, PO Box 3200 , Salem, VA. Thank you.

[Christina Maberry]

That's the site for the BBB... it has all the contact info on there... Good Luck! I have yet to get through. I ordered and my check was cashed back in Aug 07!

[Concern for my sister]

My sister in Chicago ordered for the child poem and only called me to tell me she still has not yet received her order. I told her is a scam.. She paid with money order.

[Christina]

These guys are a joke. I finally got through to them. If you don't provide them a copy of your payment to them - they won't issue a refund or send you your order. They only keep records for 6 months, then they delete everything. They are a joke!!!!!!

I will NEVER do business with them again...They are HORRIBLE!!!!

I ordered 5 of the Child Poems. I saw the ad on the back of a crossword puzzle book too. I ordered them on 11-19-07 and my check cleared my bank on 11-30-07 and I still have not received anything. The address I have is Child Poem, Dept. 8081, 1862 Apperson, Dr. P O Box 3200 Salem, VA 24153. There is no signature or deposit stamp on the back of my cleared check, however, it appears the check was deposited into a bank in Orlando Florida. I have not found a phone number to contact these people and I would warn everyone not to order anything from them.

[Silvia]

So, nobody has receive nothing from this company for real... there is not even one person there? that has received? i ordered 1 and i'm still waiting

[Taken by them]

I ordered some label from them 3/3. As the ad was in my local paper. Well they took my check and cashed it on 3/20. today is 4/16 and i doubt I will receive anything from them. My advice do the labels yourself or by them in a face to face establishment. These people are thiefs!

[JOAN ALI]

I ODERED RETURN LABELS SINCE 03/14/2008, MY CHECK WAS CASHED BUT I DID NOT RECEIVED THE LABELS. I AM SUBMITTING A FORMAL INVESTIGATION ON THIS COMPANY FOR NON RECEIPT OF THE LABELS AND CASHED CHECK ETC....BE AWARE OF SUCH

[Marc]

I work 2 miles from the so called "business address", I find this very interesting

[Sonia C Dallas Tx]

I was getting ready to order for christmas and decided to look for a web site to see if i could find anything, so glad i did. I will not be ording from this company. This Company needs to be investigated.

[crystal]

really i shall not buy anything from this company

[JANA]

I ordered 2 poem's a couple years ago and had no trouble getting them. I am glad I checked the web and saved my money this time. I did notice that the department numbers were all different, maybe to make it harder for them to be tracked. My dept# would have been 0682. I get our's in a local paper here and will notify them so they can look at this website and decide or not to remove these adds or at least contact the printer that is printing these off.

[Meredith]

Thanks so much for the heads up! Saw this ad in the local Sunday paper and wondered about the different department numbers and city addresses for the poems and labels. So checked here first before writing that check.

[Jan]

Gosh! I saw the ad in a Sunday paper insert and also planned to order. Something told me to see if there was an online address and I'm glad I saw all of your comments! The Dept in the recent ad is now listed as Dept. 8235..just for the record....

[Jan L]

I also saw the ad in Sunday's paper and was going to
order 4 poems for my grandchildren. I guess I am like a lot of readers, checking on line first. Am very glad I find this website for comments. The Dept number in our paper was 8238 with same address.
Thanks everybody for making these comments.

[Tasha]

Ok...so the whole finding this ad in the back of a crossword puzzel book is a scam???!!! Well, I want a number or something. I a going to snap f***ing balls!! I sent one for a birthday present for a dad. This is bullshit.
