Re: Vendor Problems

2011-06-04 by Doug

Well, if you've done as you've said (not that I doubt you), I would be tempted to let others know the vendor in question so they are forewarned and informed.

It certainly is not business-like of this vendor to ignore repeated requests for status.  It sounds as if the vendor may need to learn how to manage customer expectations a little better than simple silence.

My $0.02.

Repeated inquiries as to status are simply ignored. The only response I've received in the last two weeks has been a terse refusal to grant a discount that was being offered after my order, despite its pending status. Now I notice that the website says that there are "3 in stock" of the product I've ordered, yet still no action whatsoever, and a thundering silence meets every email. I'm trying to deal with this as a business transaction, but it is obviously not being handled in a businesslike manner. Isn't it a "business" when you offer a product for money? Shouldn't I at the very least be given a revised timetable for delivery?
