Title: How long to wait for a order?
Post by: bkrajnak on February 12, 2015, 08:40:26 pm

I just wanted to vent a little. I placed a order online on 12-4 from a place that sells flying Dutchman blades and pattern books, I got the blades after about four weeks, I also ordered a pattern book and I still have not received it I sent her a email on 1-14 and she apologized and said that she would ship it out right away, still no book!  I sent another email and no reply so now I guess I just sit and wait and hope the book comes in, I will never order from her again that's for sure. GRRR

Who is "her", we all probably would like to know, at least I do so I don't make a mistake of ordering from "her".

It is ok to post the companies name if your having a lot of problems with them and it sure sounds like you are. It might help other members avoid problems in the future from the same vendor. :)

I buy from Mike's Workshop for those blades. His service is the best bar none. I know the site your talking about. I got stung there when I first started using FD blades. I'll never go back.

I've never had good luck with lesley's...& the wooden teddy bear has atrocious shipping charges.  Perhaps if we as a collective complained to them about their shipping fees for blades they would re-consider how much they charge.
