Unsatisfactory Customer Service

[silver_tang]

Hi all

Today I went a marine aquarium in the west actually planning to get 5 fire goby for my fish tank. Before I go I call up the shop and ask the boss whether they have stock a not saying tat 1 want 5 goby and her reply is “YES we do and we have more than that“.

When I reach the place searching high and low and I can only find 3 goby and 1 of them the head tail is broken. Then I ask the lady boss saying that I was the one that call just now how come there is only 3 fire goby. Then she go to her tank and ask her worker (Malay Maid) say .. Wah my fishes all jump out from the tank ah saying that her maid did not take care of the fishes well. Oh….come on… your tank got a top cover on it how can the fishes jump out. Then I start to understand her idea behind it. She already know she dun have the fishes. She only want me to come down to her aquarium. Thinking that she dun have fire goby and I will buy other fishes from her instead of fire goby. Really unsatisfactory with this kind of customer service and I will never ever return to this shop again.

woah so blatant!

[patrick123]

One time they tried to push sell me luminous green frogspawn and mentioned that it was from different location very rare. Price at $100+. After knowing that I wasn't falling for it. He went on to entertain the other customer.

[zehuan]

Is it the shop that I had mention before in Kopi-Tiam?

yup...

[lightbolt75]

Is it start with a letter J?

[flying carpet]

Guys I think it won't be nice to reveal too much.

I am not against anyone here but I myself pm to ask which LFS is it. I guess that it is the best way to know better.

Peace

me and my dad was also very pissed off with the CS there..

when i was still starting out in the hobby..

i called them up to question if they have stock for the chiller..

i ask about the pricing..and they said "u come down to take a look..we cant reveal prices over the phone.."

well..then i called Reborn..and they happily told me their prices but they politely told me that they wont have stock till the next week..

so i went down over to the lady shop..didnt knew much about equipment pricing..and got sorta scammed by her words..it was me being naive to be taken in for their words..

look around their tanks..and question bout their pricing..didnt bought any fish..as my dad and i knew they were overcharging..

well..im not here to bring the LFS down..but if they can improve on their CS i wont mind patronising their shop more..as its one of the nearer LFS that i can visit..

just voicing out my disatisfaction and hope things will change for the better..

oh yea..and for those reefers who are starting out on this hobby..be sure to know the price range of a fish..visit a trusted LFS..one disadvantage of this hobby..is that..they have no price tag attatched to their fishes

[kthc]

Was offered flame angel for $50 because 'very fat'....

[spiderman]

ha ha knife sharp sharp

[jialuvqr]

went there before and got quoted very HIGH prices too.....

those who dont know market price sure get 'chop' one

. warning * to reefers who are starting out on this hobby.

if u staying in west . can always visit MarineLife (henry), u will nv regret.

[Dazza]

oklah i think we all know wh shop it is n its time to live n let live... not happy dont buy lor...... lets not reveal names etc here....

[yooyoo99]

just to share...

i went there to enquiry about the price of a 6ft tank. what the boss told me was, 'u go around the other lfs or shops and check out the specs and pricing first. then come back to us and tell us the price and specs u want. we can definitely be better than it'.

other than that, no other questions asked, don't even bother to ask any details at all.

i don't like the feeling of such service. it is good for the customer to have the best bargain. but to undercut pricing to such a level...to me oh no. i would rather spend a few hundred dollars elsewhere, where the quality and serivce is better. don't even know if their quality is good or not.

Dear Bros and Sis

Really dun know that the response will be so big after starting this thread. Is not that I want to bring this LFS down because people are doing business and making a living also. But last night think liao really super buaysong therefore decide to bring this matter up.

I had PM the boss of this LFS to tell her to come and read this thread hope she will do something about it... if not too bad then.
