Hi Theodore,
Thank you for sharing your feelings. However, we would like to use this opportunity to clarify a few important points.
You placed your order online the night of 7/20, with your payment clearing the next business day, 7/21. Since you had not specified any specific rush target date, you order was set to process within 10 business days, in priority order, first in, first out. This is completely customary and allows our logistics team to provide our potential customers the lowest freight possible by combining multiple orders on the same delivery truck. On 7/27, you had requested an update and we notified you via email that your order is slated to ship out the week of 8/3, that is 2 weeks after, as promised.
On 7/29 we received the following email:
Subject: Quick ship promise
Please explain this promise. I ordered my tables on the 20 july and was told no more than 10 business days but most likely faster since tables were quick ship and already in stock. So now my status is in production? what is that? sounds to me as a stall tactic and I expect the table tops to my location by Friday August 1 2020!!!
In turn, we had reiterated the above lead time via email and phone while explaining that the order status will stay “In Production” until the order leaves our warehouse.
Ted, we have been in business for 35 years and rarely if ever have any issues in fulfilling our orders in the described manner as evidenced by more than a few reviews commending us for our quick turnarounds. Again, had you provided a specific target date we would have instructed our shipping and logistics teams to process the order accordingly. It is a real shame that this was not satisfactory and led to this unfortunate review.
We have left you a few voicemails to discuss this further so please give us a call back at your earliest convenience.
Regards,
Jane Petrillo
