To be fair to Rich, I just wanted to update the status of my order.
Well, finally, I received my order 3 days ago. There was a mix up with an item.
He never replied to the first email I sent him, and he also never replied to the other email I sent in regards to the order.
To be fair, the products are great. The nic-juice is excellent and top of the line.
But, well, to give him the reason of doubt, I would say that the guy has a problem, a great problem with email, this is just to give him the reason of doubt.
It was not a professional service; far from that; for many reasons:
1. They should not list an item on the Web site that it is not in thier position, and it is not ready to be delivered or shipped.
2. They should answer the emails promptly; or at least, answer the emails.
3. They should update the buyers immediately if an item that was ordered is not available, and they should give the buyer the freedom to choose to either go ahead or to cancel the order. You just cannot hold people's money while you try to figure out your business with the suppliers. I have had much better experience with many other suppliers in the past 13 moths; immediate email updates, prompt repleis to any inquiries, etc.
4. I believe this community deserves better service, and we should not babysit a supplier if they mistreat buyers. Look at the other thread where the so called supplier took people's money and left them hanging there.
5. Each supplier should provide his business address and a direct email address and a phone number to the moderators of this forum. This may not be the case with Rich, but to prevent the threat of mistrust and fraud; and to have someone to turn to in case problems arise. In my case, I blindly trusted some suppliers because of the comments on these forums.
My comment could be a little harsh, but trust is very important, and a good service is a must.
Yes, Rich has a great product at a great price; especially, with the 15% discount; but, if he would give me his product for free, I wouldn't wait for it.
