Editorial Review for Lavin Baby Center – by Maria Budet

In Short
The building's shoddy exterior isn't as attention grabbing as that of the baby mega-stores, but don't let that fool you. The experienced gained from more than 20 years in the business makes this place a one-stop shop for all of your baby's needs. From cotton one-piece jumpers for everyday wear to the most delicate hand-knit outfits, car seats, furniture and layette sets, Lavin strikes a balance between mom-and-pop service and competitive pricing on quality products.

Lavin Baby Center are theives, and I can not believe that they are getting away with what they have done to so many families. I paid my furniture in FULL which I have receipts for. After calling them to scheduledelivery of my $2300 funiture set, their excuse was that their warehouse got flooded and the insurance company was going to replace my damaged furniture. When 6 weeks went by I decided to call Lavin to check status. They were completly gone. No phone numbers, no company, and worst of all I had NO FURNITURE. I have heard stories from other families that this has happeed to and in one case their was $15,000 that merchandise was never delivered for. I think that everyone affected should get together under one lawyer, and go after their assets. I want my money back, whatever I can get. Anyopne that would like to do something about this or can give me any sort of information please contact me by e-mail at r_jarro@yahoo dot c0m. Theres no point in warning people about it now, its not like Lavin even exists anymore. We have been robbed, and we know who robbed us so are we just going to let them get away with this? Please contact me ASAP. I need my money, you nedd your money. Together we will make more of an impact. Does anyone know who their lawyer is? Or if anyone can please give me direction. Thanks. PS. Ruddy and Willy should be thrown in jail. Willy is a coward for using his wife to face the customer and lie to their faces. She is even worse actually take part in it. They are criminals. THEY STOLD OUR MONEY, and they are roaming around free! I would like to take legal action, I am willing to get my own lawyer or go under somebody elses. UNION? yeah.

Cons: Con-ARTIST is what they are. The con is giving them lots and lots of money and recieving nothing in return.

I paid for a crib and was suppose to go pick it up. Had to pay it in full because it was on clearance and they didnt allow layaway on cribs. Went to pick it up and they were GONE! Fraud isnt the word, they should be ashamed of themselves. Having a baby is suppose to be a happy moment you dont expect to be stressed. Would love to know what TV station did the story on them. I disputed with my card, and placed complaints with consumer services and better business. Luckily I paid with my card. I got my money back and bought my baby a new crib at La Ideal. But I feel sorry for the people who paid cash...only way of getting that is a going to court. That is my next step. Half tempted to go to their house. On sunbiz dot com it gives their home address. Willy's wife, the only daughter of the original owner her father has dragged her poor dead fathers name through the mud. The old man must me turning in his grave. God doesnt like ugly...they will get theirs.
