One of the final straws in my dealings with TRF was when I recieved an
$800.order only to discover I forgot a small .80 item.I called and asked
if they could just put it in an envelope and send it out.
I was told the minimun charge for shipping was five bucks!
Now being in retail,I am keen on customer service.I asked to speak with
a supervisor.Next I got Dave H.on the phone.I very politely told of my
$800. order and the eighty cent part,and was basicly told "tough".Then I
got an explanation of how much it costs to prosess even the smallest
order.I was stunned and amazed at the lack of service.I never asked but
I really expected him to take the part (an O ring ), stick it in an
envelope and put a 33 cent stamp on it and send it for free!!
Not quite.
I was so disapointed by the conversation that I thought of contacting
King Charles himself.However Dave H.is one of their top guys so that
must be the way they want it.
I ordered the O ring from Moss,and paid their five dollar minimum
charge,but felt better about it.
TRF is my last resort.
Next I`ll rant about the time I bought a three hundred dollar order,only
to recieve a flyer anouncing twenty percent off sale the day my parts
arrived at the old price.I called.Guess how far I got on that one ??
But that`s another story.
