Just like the rest of us , we are not perfect. We endeavour our best to keep you informed and happy but at times we do fail to meet expectations. Being a relatively new field of online furniture selling , there are no benchmarks for service standards. We strive to be better than yesterday. We are a relatively medium scale business and feel pride in maintaining consumer laws and rights. We believe internet to be an open billboard for customers to put their views and reviews on . We don’t reward customers for good reviews nor we expect them to change a review after we correct or fix a problem. We should have got it right the first time and deserve a slap when we don’t. It’s just natural that when people get “ normal “ service ie all done nicely , we don’t get a review for that. This happens 99.9999% times.
It’s the times when we fail to deliver , is when a negative review is put. We learn from these experiences and fix our systems to avoid repeating the same mistakes. But these represent a very tiny portion of our overall trade.
We have reduced all in stock product price to clearance prices and these are now final price. Preorder prices are higher as new imports are much dearer due to rising costs. Most of in stock products when restocked will be considerably more expensive after they get out of stock.
