Private messages are just that by the way, private.
+1 and if I remember correctly there is a rule here about these types of posts.

First off consider when you order from places like Quebec you may very well be dealing with a language barrier so don't expect exception 2 way communication. Second in terms of customer service what did you expect, she seemed completely 100% polite and judging by the dates and times posted with the emails extremely quick at replying, many places take 24 hours.

I might not be understanding correctly but if this complaint actually comes down to less than $3 extra for shipping then I just don't get it. I'm thinking some of us shouldn't order stuff online....

I did say the price on items was good..and I wouldve been comfortable paying FULL shipping charges...but if a company advertises HALF OFF SHIPPING ON ALL LIGHTING...I EXPECT THEM TO HONOR IT ON A LIGHTING PURCHASE...within reason of course.

The end shipping charge of $16 was reasonable...BUT it took 4 emails for me to get it. These emails were polite..on both sides I think...but this is not what I consider GOOD CUSTOMER SERVICE. I am posting a buyer beware. I am not slandering. What occured is fact.

If you think this is good service...shop til you drop.

If you just replied "yes" to the first email it would have ended there. It certainly didn't need to take 4 emails.

Careful man. Don't get off to a bad start here. Just take it easy everyone. Yeah they screwed up on the shipping. I get it. But the others are right, copy and pasting emails and these kinds of threads, are not looked upon kindly here. take it from me.
