Better Business Bureau warns against <strong>Canton</strong> business<br />
Consumers from across<br />
the country have contacted<br />
the Better Business<br />

alleging poor business<br />
practices against the Outdoor<br />
Fun Store including<br />
failure to ship products,<br />
shipping incorrect items,<br />
and failure to refund money<br />
<strong>for</strong> items not received.<br />
All complainants have indicated<br />
they made numerous<br />
attempts in writing and by<br />
phone to contact the company<br />
but have not been successful<br />
in reaching company<br />
representatives.<br />
One complainant is<br />
The Osage Nation from<br />
Pawhuska. Okla., who<br />
ordered equipment from<br />
the Outdoor Fun Store to<br />
be used by a tribal family<br />

"Ruth to the Rescue" producers<br />
and the BBB <strong>for</strong><br />
help.<br />
"We made two payments<br />
totaling $6,578.44, but have<br />
not received any of the<br />
playground equipment. We<br />
have made numerous calls<br />
and sent a demand letter<br />
which have all have gone<br />
unanswered The money<br />
<strong>for</strong> the equipment was originally<br />
federal grant funds;<br />
there<strong>for</strong>e, the Osage Nation<br />
GABRIELS<br />
Cheese Steak<br />
had to reimburse the grant<br />
with its own funds. We are<br />
hoping that WDIV and the<br />
Better Business Bureau can<br />
help us recoup our money,"<br />
said Clint Patterson,<br />
assistant attorney general.<br />
