Title: bitcoinvalley.ca Post by: BradR on November 14, 2013, 12:27:30 PM Hi all, I joined to comment on this "scam alert" thread:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=332505.0 ...but it appears I must post my experiences here in the "Newbies" thread. On Nov.6 I placed an order with bitcoinvalley.ca. I couldn't get BIPS to work, so I used their "customer service" link to ask for alternate payment instructions, and they very promptly replied with a bitcoin wallet (1L2Rw5HCjCe87gofuCdweaabgkDxaCWtcL) to send the payment, after which my order would be marked paid. So I promptly sent that payment, and that's the last I've heard from them. They have not acknowledged receipt of the payment, and they have not told me a shipping date. My order is still marked "payment review" in their system. I've sent them two emails, and two messages through their "customer service" web page, and have heard no reply at all. They're very good at taking your bitcoin....not so good at delivering anything.

They did their own investigation and promptly took the site down. Sorry to hear about your BTC but I'm in the same boat as you.
