schestowitz | Hi Arron, | Jul 01 18:50 |
schestowitz | I am going to be frank with you. | Jul 01 18:50 |
schestowitz | This whole chair has been a bloody nightmare to me. | Jul 01 18:50 |
schestowitz | I wish I never entered the store. | Jul 01 18:50 |
schestowitz | I spent not only endless hours/days thinking about this, at times with concerns, sometimes with anger and sheer fury. | Jul 01 18:50 |
schestowitz | I also practically spent time doing things to pursue this, ranging from calls to E-mail to visits to the store. I've long count of how much time, let alone anger, was expended on this. | Jul 01 18:50 |
schestowitz | It was a nightmare. | Jul 01 18:50 |
schestowitz | Only after a month, after I came to the store physically and demanded a refund I was given a loaned chair -- one that practically hundreds if not thousands of people already sat on. | Jul 01 18:50 |
schestowitz | This was not the chair I ordered. | Jul 01 18:50 |
schestowitz | I was all along treated like dirt. | Jul 01 18:50 |
schestowitz | I never had ANY of my E-mails answered. | Jul 01 18:50 |
schestowitz | And you know what the worse part is? | Jul 01 18:50 |
schestowitz | One time when I came to the store (after 3 weeks I think) My. Philips was DOING A WORKOUT in the showroom... in his GYM kit. During working hours... on a weekday. | Jul 01 18:50 |
schestowitz | He was 'kind' enough to open the door for me. | Jul 01 18:50 |
schestowitz | After I told him my legs had swollen, due to not having that chair, he then was 'kind' enough to give me... something. | Jul 01 18:50 |
schestowitz | He never communicated with me afterwards. | Jul 01 18:50 |
schestowitz | He had a whole month before lock-down. | Jul 01 18:50 |
schestowitz | Did he respond to my mails? Never. | Jul 01 18:50 |
schestowitz | I even sent some follow-ups. | Jul 01 18:50 |
schestowitz | No reply. | Jul 01 18:51 |
schestowitz | Then, when I came to the shop, guess what he told me. | Jul 01 18:51 |
schestowitz | He didn't get my emails. | Jul 01 18:51 |
schestowitz | Liar. | Jul 01 18:51 |
schestowitz | Later he even admitted that he had gotten them. | Jul 01 18:51 |
schestowitz | What a nerve. | Jul 01 18:51 |
schestowitz | This isn't a rotten apple. He's the STORE MANAGER. | Jul 01 18:51 |
schestowitz | You guys gave this man the highest position there. | Jul 01 18:51 |
schestowitz | He was lying to my face. | Jul 01 18:51 |
schestowitz | I was polite, I was fast to buy, I gave him no hassle | Jul 01 18:51 |
schestowitz | I was also EXCEEDINGLY patient. | Jul 01 18:51 |
schestowitz | Don't believe me? | Jul 01 18:51 |
schestowitz | Check my digital communication. A subset of the whole... | Jul 01 18:51 |
schestowitz | And mind the date. | Jul 01 18:51 |
schestowitz | So he had times to do workouts while at work (not exactly a sanitary thing to be doing near a showroom for showroom), but not a moment to send me back an e-mail, not even an acknowledement. | Jul 01 18:51 |
schestowitz | I lost count of how many mails I sent him. Maybe half a dozen. | Jul 01 18:51 |
schestowitz | When someone never replies to you at some stage you ask yourself, why bother? | Jul 01 18:51 |
schestowitz | So here we are... | Jul 01 18:51 |
schestowitz | July | Jul 01 18:51 |
schestowitz | I bought the chair in FEBRUARY! I paid in full, upfront. | Jul 01 18:51 |
schestowitz | I don't want to blame you guys also for health trouble, but I had to go see my GP and then two specialists (plus visits for blood tests etc.) due to swollen feet. I bought the chair due to discomfort with my old chair. And the corporate neglect made things so much worse. I can never get back my health, or my time... I run sites that attract millions of people per month, and I was tempted to write rants about all this. But didn't... | Jul 01 18:51 |
schestowitz | So now you want the used chair (that loads of people sat on at your shop) back... only to replace it with what I actually ordered... 5 months ago almost! | Jul 01 18:51 |
schestowitz | I demand some sort of goodwill compensation. I will never get my time back, my health back, undo the temper... this has been preying on my mind for a week, hence the message I sent this morning. | Jul 01 18:51 |
