A November 26, 2010 David Segal article in the New York Times reports on an online eyeglasses store by the name of DecorMyEyes. Saving you the time of reading through 5,681 words, the owner’s strategy is to lie, rip-off, and threaten his customers, all in the name of driving them to leave scathing reviews on blogs and message boards. Why? As detailed in a prior post on SEO (search engine optimization), the more Web sites linking to your Web site, the better your site’s ranking will in the search engines.

Leaving aside search engine responsibility, for better or worse consumers have every right to be suspicious of what they do online –from shopping to simple browsing. Understanding this, at Magnets.com it’s our norm and best practice to be absolutely honest and transparent, offering our customers complete security and confidence. From browsing our Web site all the way through delivery, we implement a number of verification processes and tools to ensure 100% privacy and security, including:

• GeoTrust SSL certification: ensures the highest level of security between your browser and our servers. Sensitive information like phone numbers, addresses, and credit card information is 100% private and secure. Always.
• BBB accreditation: long standing members with an A+ rating
• An easy to find Privacy Policy, courtesy of TRUSTe
• An easy to find Terms of Service
• The option to use Google Checkout for any purchase
• Easily reachable customer service agents who are around to help –and take payment information- from 8-8EST
• Partnering with FedEx to ensure quick, seamless, error free shipping

In business since 1997 with 50,000+ worldwide customers, shop in absolute confidence with Magnets.com.

The Magnets.com family has been touched by Alzheimer’s disease and its devastating impact.  The most common form of dementia, characterized by a loss or decline in memory and other cognitive abilities, an estimated 5.3 million Americans have Alzheimer’s, according to the Alzheimer’s Association 2010 Alzheimer’s Disease Facts and Figures report.

To help make a difference in the lives of those suffering from this debilitating disease, and with November being Alzheimer’s Awareness Month, Magnets.com will donate one dollar from each order placed in November to Children of Aging Parents (CAPS), a nonprofit organization assisting caregivers of the nation’s elderly and chronically ill. Established in 1977, CAPS provides reliable information, referrals, and support, averaging about 18,000 (and growing) requests for assistance each year.

Relying exclusively on annual membership dues, grants, bequests, and donations, please help CAPS continue their fine work by donating directly or making a purchase this month with Magnets.com.
