Scholastic

We are in month two of waiting. There is a leadership void since the CEO died. Our condolences, but this is no way to run an ecommerce company. They are no longer the company I remember growing up.

Do not use a debit/credit card or paypal!! On October 22ND of 2018 I placed an order for 7 books for my daughter I thought all was well paypal showed the transaction as pre-authorized and placed a hold on the money. About 2 weeks later I received a letter through snail mail saying that the money was never paid even though paypal was showing them still having a hold on my money. So no big deal I'll get that money back in a couple weeks I said to myself and made the payment with my paypal cash card. 2 days later paypal shows the transaction as a successful and completed transaction. Today November 20th 2018 I checked my email this morning and seen an email from scholastic collections department saying they still haven't received payment and I won't get my books until it's been paid even though they've taken my money. I emailed them a copy of the receipt saying paid they then tried to tell me that it was only a pre-authorization so I took a screenshot of a payment that was actually a pre-authorization payment and they still denied payment and told me it's paypal fault even though the paypal receipt Cleary says PAID. Do not buy books from them!! Unless you like being screwed around for your money only to receive nothing but stress. There's tons of places online to buy affordable books the only reason I used them was for the class rewards my child's class would receive but it'll be less of a hassle to just buy books just to donate to the classroom.
