Has anyone had any dealing with this company?

Found this while searching for floor mats for my car.
http://hurstoldsstore.com/
This seems to be the only web page they have, when you click the page, it takes you to an order page that shows Baxter Box Co. Inc. and Paypal.
Anyone ordered from. The site says they have other items for H/O, but they do not list anything else.

I'd be leary on this, big time. Does not even look like a real "company". Find someone who had good dealings with them (and like the products) before even considering.

If you click on the big Buy Now button, you are immediately taken to Paypal, as you noted. I actually think that's a positive thing as Paypal is quite reputable and has all kinds of built-in buyer protections. I doubt they would do business with a company that was just a scam.

The company name on Paypal is Baxter Box Company, and the area code on their phone number is for Palm Beach County, Florida. I did a quick search and could not turn up a company by that name in that area, even though their website says they've been in business for 33 years. I agree that the site itself is very minimal.

The same as what company? There are four sponsors at the top of the classified page, and none of them are the company in question. None of the private classifieds lower down on the page look to be this company, either.

Found this on ebay, feedback looks great and it was thru Paypal, so it is protected. Will let everyone know what happens with it.

Interesting. Looks like they do a lot of their business on ebay. But you're right, like I mentioned, they use paypal for payments, and that's a mark in their favor in my opinion. I don't think I'd hesitate to buy from them. They could fix up their online storefront a bit, though, so people aren't put off by how primitive it is.

I purchased a set of floor mats for my '79 H/O and they look great and service was also good through the company. I only bring them out of the trunk for shows since they do show scuffs from shoes.

I am learing about the scuffs and will do the same, after a week they are already scuffed from my heels.

A little glass cleaner will take the scuffs off. I keep a set of 'driver' mats for everyday use.
