Earlier this year, I purchased several ready-to-eat braised food products from various vendors on ****. Many of these products were visibly spoiled upon arrival. After consuming the food, my family experienced symptoms of foodborne illness, including diarrhea.When I attempted to investigate the source of these products, I discovered that the vendor pages on **** provided no information about the manufacturersno address, no phone number, and no company name. This lack of transparency raises serious concerns that these vendors may be operating as unregulated, home-based producers.Moreover, I have observed a surge of unlicensed vendors on Yami selling similar meat products without valid **** establishment numbers. In one alarming case, a package of spicy beef jerky displayed **** Establishment Number EST.4122, which I have verified as a company that was officially deregistered in August 2021. Yet, this product continues to circulate under that number.Yami's product pages falsely claim that these items are "**** certified," but the product packaging lacks any **** inspection or certification markings. This deliberate misrepresentation misleads consumers into believing these products meet federal safety standards, when in fact they do not.This conduct represents a clear violation of consumer rights, endangers public health, and undermines legitimate, law-abiding food producers in the *************. It fosters an environment of unfair competition and sets a dangerous precedent for food safety compliance in e-commerce.I respectfully urge your office to investigate these practices and take appropriate enforcement action against both Yami and the involved vendors.Initial Complaint

I have been regularly ordering from Yami (yamibuy.com) for a full year. On April 5 I placed an order by 10:00 AM, and they promise to deliver the same day for orders placed by 10:00 AM. But they failed to deliver April 5. I had ordered for my visiting friend, but my friend had to leave, so at 7:30 PM on April 5 I canceled the order. But Yami ignored my email. I ended up sending a total of 8 emails from April 5 - April 6 telling them to cancel the order, but Yami completely ignored all 8 of my emails; they never responded. Yami finally emailed me on April 6 around 10:30 PM and again on April 7 at 1:18 AM telling me they delivered the order and asking me to ship it back to them by ****** They said after they got the package back they would credit me back the $90.98. Yami is playing a game, and this is a suspicious scam. I sent 8 emails from April 5 to April 6 canceling the order but they say they shipped it to me anyway. In addition, I never got the package, so how could I return it to them? And even if I did get the delivery, I told them to cancel the order in 8 emails far enough in advance. I am not responsible for returning anything. Again, the reality is I did not receive anything. But they have not given me my money back.This is a scam. Yami should credit me the $90.98 and reimburse me for all the time they have made me waste sending 10 emails by now.Business Response

Complaint Summary: Request for a full refund due to the return of an unopened and undamaged product in its original packaging.Complaint Details:On December 17, 2024, I received the package from Yami (Order #*************). The product was never opened and remained in its original packaging. I decided to return the item immediately, using the prepaid return label provided by ****, on the same day it was ************ support this, I have attached a picture I took of the product in its original packaging before shipping it back to ****. This clearly shows that the product was unopened and undamaged at the time of return. I shipped the item back using the original packaging to ensure its protection during transit.However, **** is now claiming that the product is not in brand-new condition and has water stains. This is untrue. The damage must have occurred during their handling of the return or transit. Their deduction of a 15% restocking fee and $7 shipping fee, leaving me with a refund of only $366.25 instead of the full $432.50, is completely unfair.I request a full refund of $432.50 since the product was returned in the same condition as it was delivered to me. If this matter is not resolved promptly, I will pursue further actions. Attached are:Proof of delivery and return tracking ************* correspondence with Yami.A photo of the product in its original packaging before it was shipped back.Attach the picture showing the original packaging along with other documents and submit the complaint. This additional evidence strengthens your case. Let me know if you need help organizing the files for the submission!Business Response

I made an order on 11/29/2024 and received it on 12/4/2024. The package I received was damaged and the content inside also was impacted and crushed a bit, due to poor packaging. The packet inside was at the bottom of the box while the rest had bubble wrap, instead of using the bubble wrap to go around the packet I ordered. I am extremely disappointed and spent $26.95 on a product that was on sale and may not ever go on sale again. I have attached photos of the damaged package.Initial Complaint

Yami shipped fake products and they wouldn't admit or issue refund.Business Response

Thank you for contacting us. The customer reached out, mentioning that the taste of the product is different from their previous purchase and suspected it might be counterfeit. However, the customer purchased two similar products from different brands. We have since contacted the customer again, providing a solution and an explanation. Thank you once again.Customer Answer

I have used the authentic products many times before purchasing from your website. The products from your website looked the same on picture but with inferior quality. Like I said before, it has a FISHY and CHEMICAL taste. If you are a responsible business, then you should refund your customers for such terrible products. And you should stop this products from your current supplier all together before it poison the customers. Even the off brand one on your website has better quality than this branded one that I just purchased from you.Initial Complaint

I place two online orders at Yamibuy.com, neither of them were delivered to my address. I contacted Yamibuy.com two times seeking to resolution of the misplaced delivery, after I provided all the necessary information (order number, confirmed home delivery address on my order, the picture of my front door - asked by the online support agent), neither of the issues were resolved, and Yamibuy kept asking for more information in circles rather than help to resolve the issue.Order 1: order number *************, placed on 26Sep2024, was delivered to the wrong address (picture 1 showed delivery proof which is clearly not my house as shown in picture 2). I contacted Yamibuy after it was misplaced and they still haven't resolved it. Order2: order number *************, placed on 02Oct2024, was delivered to the wrong address (picture 3 showed delivery proof which is clearly not my house as shown in picture 2).

Dear BBB,I would like to file a complaint regarding some unreasonable practices on the Yamibuy.com website. I purchased two camera products from Yamibuy.com on Sep. 29th and Oc 3rd. After receiving them and testing them, I found that they did not meet my basic needs. I contacted the customer service to request a return, but I was informed that opened items cannot be returned. After insisting strongly, they contacted their supplier and provided the following solution: if the item has been opened or used, a restocking fee of 15% will be charged. I believe this is an extremely unreasonable and unfair policy, as I cannot know whether the product is usable without opening and testing it. This is very tricky behavior on their part. I hope that Yamibuy.com will fully refund my purchase, and I am here sincerely request the assistance of the BBB to help resolve this **********'s my order number on yamibuy.com 09/29/2024, Order# ************* Price: $29.99 +Tax 10/03/2024, Order# ************* Price: $49.99 +TaxBusiness Response
