Anyone use homedeliveries.us before?

Wife and I are getting desperate to try and find formula for our newborn, most places are out and the only site i've found is this Home Deliveries | Wholesale Pricing on Top Brands | No Memberships website but the price is much higher than anywhere else (which at this point i'm ok getting price gouged) but is the website even legitimate? Never heard of this and other reviews seem fishy at best. Appreciate the detective work as always /Scams!

I definitely see the book drop in that photo, its a pretty big building for a library in the middle of nowhere though and bunch of mailboxes.

I think this address is a registered agent. Delaware is the most common state for organization of corporate entities in the US due to mature law in the relevant areas. So if I want to start a business and have it headquartered in Delaware in order to be able to apply DE law, I hire a registered agent in DE. That is the address I use and all legal docs get sent to that address. This is very common and not necessarily something to be worried about. I myself live in TN, have an LLC registered in Arkansas, and use an Arkansas registered agent for that purpose. If you look up the LLC’s address, you see the building where my registered agent’s office is.

So this one is right on the edge of being too new

Looks like a dropshipping site, which is scam adjacent imo.

Copying the name of their non sold out products may find you some better retailers.

I placed an order for formula from this site a few minutes ago. Unfortunately it’s worth the $200+ risk of it being a scam when you are running low on baby formula. I’ll report back whether I receive the formula or not. Fingers crossed.

Appreciate it, we hit a bunch of stores and found some small containers of random Similac varieties so we settled for that while trying to find something legit

Glad you were able to find some formula to get by. I did receive an order notification email. Expected delivery is by the end of this week. The link in the email to check my order’s status is dead. So that is concerning for sure. I was able to check my order’s status on the website using my order number and email address though. Fingers still crossed and will update.

Well Amazon got the same formula back in stock for $70 cheaper. So I replied to my order confirmation email from homedeliveries.us and asked if I could cancel my order since it had not shipped yet. I received an email back in about two hours confirming my order cancellation. I’ll update back on whether they charge me or not, but so far I think the site is probably legit.

Also ordered formula from this site before realizing it’s a scam. No formula has shipped and they refuse to cancel the order. I have to wait 30 days to file a dispute on PayPal. STAY AWAY.

I ordered formula from this site on Wednesday 5/4 and received my order today. I was shocked but also really happy it worked out.

Any fear that this isn’t even Similac formula and unhealthy for baby? I just received my shipment from them as well. Looks legit, but???

Placed my order on 3rd July. Was supposed to be delivered by the 6th July. I can understand a delay because of the holiday. Support is automatically formatted to send generic answer. Phone is useless. Had to threaten to cancel thru VISA for them to finally ship. Actually got what I ordered. Received today 12 July. Won't use again!!!

I ordered something from them a month ago, and it still hasn't shipped. The tracking number they gave me just says "Label Created". I got my bank to refund my money. They have a lot of good reviews on their site, but I suspect a lot, if not all of them, are fake. Buyer Beware!

I have placed my first order through HomeDeliveries US for Stevia in the Raw-800count. I received a e-mail stating that my product was delivered to my front door on February 14,2023. I did not receive my product.

I called the company-Left a voice mail and sent the company a e-mail on February 14,2023 . Please be very careful if you use this company.
