Refrubish Goods not worth the hassel

On June 20th I purchased two Shark Robot vacuums. See order Order #XXXXXXXX. One developed a problem. I contacted Shark. They said worked with me and confirmed an issue with that required a new unit. I called their 562-946-3531 over the course of two days and the phone is never answered. It’s like yelling in a cave.
Shark now says I need to contact you about it. I guess the sub-contracted out the handling of refurbished units and the sub contractor is now overwhelmed.

What are my options? How do I get this resolved? Shark has basically said, don’t bother us anymore, just call the number to the company that doesn’t respond. If that doesn’t work to contact the people that I purchased it from.

Please let me know how to proceed.

Hi there. The Shark item you bought had a 90-day Woot warranty, not a Shark warranty so that’s why they’re sending you back to us. You are past the 90-days. If you’ve been working with Shark for a while, make sure you let our customer service know this.

Thanks for the help. This is very frustrating. Nothing is direct.

Thank you. I guess I should have known better. Appreciate the answer.
No more refurbs for me.

I hope you have a good weekend.

Unable to find a customer service phone number. Waiting for days for an inaccurate response is very poor customer service. WOOT became a complete joke!

Hi there. I believe we’re not using phone responses at the moment. Please reach out to Woot! Customer Service. To speed things up, let them know if you prefer a return/refund or a replacement (if possible).

Please allow 24-48h for them to respond.
