I purchased a X7 4-Stroke Super Pocket Bike and a helmet from Mini Pocket Rockets Accessories Online Inc. on December 5, 2006. I received the bike via Fed Ex on December 12, 2006. The X7 Super Pocket Bike came with fuses and the battery was dead. I called and requested that they send me another battery, the fuse was not as important to me as the bike. I purchased fuses from an online company that shipped to me right away. A person from Mini Pocket Rockets told me that he would shipped me a battery right away. I waited for about a week and received know battery. I called again and they told me the same thing. At this point I was very angry and tried emailing them because I could not get a call through, as all of my phone calls were going to the voice mail.

I have been researching for a street legal scooter and have seen the pocket rockets you are talking about. Just about every web site I have seen tells you in the fine print that the battery may and usually needs to be charged. This really sucks for the consumer like you and I, especially if we are hours away from any dealers that can help us hands on. I have also noticed that some of the batteries need to be filled also before charging. Good luck with whatever you decide, but you may want to find a relative or friend and try trickle charging the battery after checking the fluid levels.

You can't prove in a court of law that the original battery wasn't in working condition when you received the bike.
You can't prove that you didn't fry the battery, trying to charge it improperly.
Bite the bullet and purchase a new battery.
Don't bother filing a report.
One of life's lessons - don't buy though mail order.
Even if it had a warranty, you'd have to mail it back to them, so they could honor the warranty and repair it.
Even if you were to mail something back for repairs, they could give you the brush off and keep telling you their waiting for parts.
I know this isn't what you want to hear - just let it go.

you ought to have saved your receipt for the motorbike. How come you probably did no longer? anyhow, that exchange into your mistake. the 2d mistake in my view exchange into in procuring a low priced ($ninety 9 is rather low priced for an grownup motorbike) from a huge container shop. you will in no way get an exceedingly good bicycle that way. nonetheless, the shop workers have been rude and unhelpful and the unique motorbike exchange into probably assembled incorrectly. evaluate this to be a studying journey. this is fortunate which you weren't heavily injured. Get your self a shoebox and consistently save your receipts. in case you settle directly to get yet another motorbike, get it at a motorcycle save the place they comprehend what they're doing, and anticipate to pay extra. Or purchase a solid used motorbike. do no longer forget to purchase a helmet, too.

My friend, sorry for what happened to you. I would not file a report with BBB. After all, who is looking at that site before you buy something? Honestly, did you look at their site before you bought this product? I bet you didn't.
I think posting this question to Yahoo! Answers is a bigger punishment for them.
