    Smile Wow!

    Dear Friends,

    I received a random act of kindness from a vendor here...well, two, actually.

    I won't name any names in case the vendor prefers anonymity BUT...they have earned my continued business.

    I went to purchase a leather sporran strap. I was going to pay with a bank transfer...only to be told by my bank that I would be hit with a HUGE fee to wire the funds. As the order had already been sent on to the "processing" phase, due to the way the vendor's site is set up, I was unable to backtrack and change my method of payment...so my sporran strap lingered on and on in oblivion.

    Out of nowhere last week, I received an email saying that my sporran strap had been diapatched.

    "Surely there must be a mistake here," I thought. I called and emailed the vendor. Nope. No mistake. The vendor, as a gesture of goodwill, sent the sporran strap anyway--free of charge. It arrived in the post just now.

    The vendor impressed me yet again. I ordered an umbrella from their store as a gift for a friend. It arrived damaged. I wrote to the vendor. He said tomdispose of it without mailing it back and that he would refund my money, since it would be pointless to send it back broken.


    I want to thank that vendor, with all sincerity, for his generosity and kindness. This is some of the best customer service that I have EVER received.
    You have earned my continued patronage.

    Many thanks,
    Bren

    There is no better advertisement than word of mouth, and there is no better customer experience than exceptional customer service. As owning two of my own businesses, it is a joy to see (and hear) my customers response when they are treated with respect and appreciation for allowing me to serve them. It would be nice to see all shopping return to those standards.

    I agree. It was nothing short of impressive to be treated so well. Too bad all merchants aren't this way. It would go a long way if they were.
