Rubbermaid 3J05 Configurations Sliding Wire Basket, Titanium

Rubbermaid 3J05 Configurations Sliding Wire Basket, Titanium I ordered a Rubbermaid Configurations 4-8 foot Deluxe Custom Closet Kit, as well as sliding wire basket to go along with it. First, the few negatives...at no fault of Amazon.com's. The basket arrived damaged, at a point that was very noticeable and not easy to fix or hide (the plastic caps that are built-in to the ends of the grab bar to slide the drawer out, one was cracked...or more crunched beyond belief). These pieces aren't put in by the consumer, they are already glued (I'm assuming) into the ends of the bar, and it sticks out like a sore thumb, not to mention can CAUSE a sore thumb...when you cut yourself from grabbing the bar near the cracked plastic. So, I returned the basket and asked that another one be shipped to me. The Amazon return process is pretty easy, I opted for the Amazon-paid USPS shipper, which I printed immediately. The return seemed to get "lost", and unfortunately Amazon doesn't pay for tracking on those returns (A tip that I got from the post office: in the future, pay the extra .50 or so for the USPS track and confirm service, added onto what's pre-paid by Amazon, to avoid this. Even though Amazon.com pays shipping, you can add this service out of your pocket without re-paying for the entire shipping charge.). After getting the "you will be charged in a few days" e-mail and going back and forth, Amazon assured me they would't charge me, then miraculously a few weeks later, they got the return package.

So that was my sliding drawer. The replacement came and wasn't damaged. However, the 4-8 foot deluxe closet kit also had damaged clothes rod caps. Fortunately, these caps you put in yourself, so I could pick and choose the less damaged ones (most if not all were damaged to some extent, but most damage was easily hidden in the clothes rods, as it was the inner part of the caps that was crushed). After getting around this small inconvenience, I got the hand rails mounted, the rails hung, and the shelves in place.

So that's the bad part...and for that reason, I would recommend what I've since found out...Lowe's sells the white version of these, and just calls them something different, but still Rubbermaid (I believe Rubbermaid Home or Rubbermaid Closet Home Essentials, or something like that). So you can probably get it at your local Lowe's at prices that are about the same, and not have to worry about shipping damage. [..], however, doesn't sell these...so I imagine only certain markets have them in stores.

Now for the good part. I did some research on Consumer Reports on custom closet systems before purchasing them. I had Closetmaid in my mind at the time, until I saw the ratings...and Rubbermaid won for several reasons, including quality of the product, ease of installation/customization, etc. It really was very easy to install, and I used this particular kit in my laundry room...and well, since I installed it, I've rearranged the shelves about 5 or 6 times. Each time it only took me about 5 minutes to completely rearrange things, and half that time was spent taking everything off of the shelves. You just slide the shelf locks to the unlocked position, pull the shelves off, move the brackets, put the shelves back up, and re-lock them in place with the sliding locks. It's that simple. Being that easy, you might thing they don't hold in place very well, but the simple shelf locks do the trick--they aren't going anywhere once you slide the locking mechanism. Quality seems very good too (assuming it arrives undamaged). I was somewhat leary with the overlapping shelves idea...to combine two smaller shelves into one bigger shelf, but the way Rubbermaid does it is pretty clever...they have A and B shelves, clearly labeled. One is slightly longer than the other, but not so much that it's noticeable or looks funny. They overlap when needed perfectly, without looking odd, being out of balance, or anything like that.

Overall I would highly recommend this product, but you may want to try Lowe's for it, based on potential shipping damage which occurred with both of my shipments. Don't get me wrong, I LOVE Amazon.com, and have NEVER had an unresolved issue with them. However, this just might be a product that is better purchased in the store, unless you have the time and patience for a potential return/exchange. It didn't cost me a cent, other than a few extra days delay, and some follow-up finding the return package. However, although I've placed about 7 or 8 Amazon.com orders since then...this is one product I probably won't purchase via ANY mail-order method again. ;)

Specifically referring to this basket...I read that this wire basket was much more sturdy than the other options (canvas baskets and I think there's one other kind), and I tested them out at my local Lowe's...they're all on display there. I found the same thing, the other baskets don't slide so well, but this one slides just fine.
Rubbermaid: 3J05 Rubbermaid 3J0500TITNM Configurations; Sliding Basket TitaniumRubbermaid 3J0500TITNM Configurations; Sliding Basket Titanium Features:; Large capacity basket with pull handle provides convenient storage for purses, hats, keepsakes and accessories; Ball bearing glides ensure easy sliding; Mount separately or share bracket with a shelf for maximum storage space; 8" x 23.5" x 18" assembled dimensions; Titanium finish There's nothing handier than a sturdy, slide-out basket when it comes to storage.

Selling Counterfeit, replica, or knock-off items on eBay

policy guidelines of eBay banning the sale of copies of counterfeit or "knock-off". The items most commonly sold on eBay are fake handbags, jewelry, pirated software, designer clothes and watches.

Authenticity is critical on eBay. Why? Firstly, the sale of replicas and counterfeits devalue the originals. Manufacturers of hearing the original voice of reducing the value of the original. Producers understand that many buyers would alsosoon pay $ 20 for a pretty good replica, to pay the full amount of 200 for the original. Producers lose their jobs, while the same false lot are sold to consumers.

The problem here is supply and demand. More supply, lower demand and ultimately lower prices. If eBay has allowed counterfeit Louis Vuitton items for sale on their website, thousands of these items are for sale to anyone in the world who wanted one. Many customers have chosen to buy cheap imitationsinstead of the authentic voice. Consumers are already buying replicas at the corners of streets in busy cities like New York and Washington DC.

In addition, the informal economy is often driven by the production and distribution of counterfeit goods. In recent years, organized criminal groups have emerged as major distributors, producers and shippers of counterfeit goods, especially software, DVDs, CDs and other digital goods. The trafficking of counterfeitgoods is a crime punishable by fines and imprisonment. Counterfeit trafficking networks are often linked to organized crime, drugs, prostitution, gangs, and terrorism. eBay really wants no part of this situation.

The sale of counterfeit items is a problem, there are lawyers who specialize in the prosecution of manufacturers and distributors of aftershocks. If you are caught posting fake items on eBay, your account may be suspended or terminated. Many largecompanies and manufacturers like Microsoft, Tommy Bahama, coach and monitor items for sale on eBay. Your article may be marked with the eBay VeRO program and deleted if it does not appear to be authentic.

Last thoughts - for the sale of branded products expensive, absolutely certain that the object is authentic first list it. If there is any doubt, do not mention the issue.

Washington DC schools face problems
