Artists Wanted

Review: I purchased a book, which was supposed to feature artist from all over the country, myself included, from this company The transaction took place in October 2012, and the company mislead me and a group of other artists to believe we would be getting a book at the discounted price of 47.90 and its been a year and still no book has been received. I have emailed, called and [redacted] the company for an update and they continued to give false dates on when I'd receive the book. After another 6 months of not receiving it, I requested a refund and was told no problem and they asked how I wanted it. After I sent my paypal info, they just continue to ignore me. They have changed their name to See.me and have taken their contact info off their website and their [redacted]. I feel I've been scammed and I want my money back!Desired Settlement: I want my money back of 47.90 put to my paypal acct under [redacted]

Review: I've participated and got a chance to submit my art to Artists Wanted's Art Takes Times Square open air exhibit. After a month of the exhibition, I received a mail telling that my photo was going to be published in the ATTS 2012 book. I paid a total of 50$ for the book on August **, 2012, 4:56 pm. Since than, the company has changed it's name to See.me ; I mailed them more than 10 times asking when my book was going to be delivered - everytime they told me it will be delivered in 1-2 month... It's been more than a year now! I'm a citizen of the US and even though I told them about my citizenship (so they won't think that I have nothing to do just because they're in the states!) nothing made a difference. I found your site on [redacted] in a discussion again about the book. Please help me get what I own!Desired Settlement: They're responsible of publishing and delivering my book I paid for last year. If they're not able to do so; then I want my full refund immediately!

Review: I paid for a copy of the Exposure 2011 coffee table book in which I have a piece of artwork published. Over the years, the company has extended their deadline over and over again and failed to inform me of these changes until I started contacting them with questions. Every time I called or emailed I was told "one more month. Sorry"

It has been a year and I have yet to see the product. I have complained numerous times and the company never once offered me the option of a refund of my money. The last deadline I was given was this November. I no longer wish to do business with them and since I still have yet to see the product or receive any information about it I am ready to get a full refund and be done with them. While I understand that the kind of work they do benefits art in general, I am beyond dissatisfied. To be clear about the company, they have now changed their name from Artists Wanted to see|me.Desired Settlement: I want my money back. Not only the price of the book, but also the international shipping fees I purchased when I paid for the book

Response:

At this time, I have not been contacted by Artists Wanted regarding complaint ID [redacted].

I have however received several emails advertising their upcoming shows and promotions, which have nothing to do with this complaint.

Sincerely,
