      On March 11 I purchased a headstone for my dog's gravesite from GiftsForYouNow off of Amazon. About 10 days later I had received the item and placed it at the gravesite. Less than 4 months later, July 4, we went to gravesite and found the headstone in terrible condition. We were sold a defective product! I contacted the company and they refuse to refund my money.

      Hello,

      Thank you for reaching out about the issue with your stone. I do see you had ordered it via our Amazon store in which you had messaged back and forth with our Amazzon representative who at the time offered a replacement of same item or even a different item. Then offered the refund and processed the  refund back to the Amazon account. I have attached the messages with Amazon and showing the refund was processed as requested. If you need further assistance please feel free to reach out to me directly and I would e happy to help.

       

      Thank you,

      I have been calling this company and emailing this company for three weeks. They sent me two items out of the three that I ordered from them and I cannot get anybody to speak to. You have to leave a message or an email and Ive still gotten no reply and I spent $20 on favor boxes for my daughters baby shower. I cant get any response from these people, Ive never seen a company that has no customer service. They wont call back. They wont tell you where anything is. I cant even get a live person on the phone so thats why Im doing this to make sure people know that they cannot get a reply if something doesnt come to you you wont get it because nobody will call you back or tell you if its coming or not . I spent $68 received two items out of three horrible customer service. Nobody answers the phone. You have to leave a message.

      Item's are not as described and are all highly defective. All 3 are terrible quality, with dents, dimples and one is scratched and scuffed as well. These are customized TEA JARS, not " pet urn's" as is described in the description.False advertising, and it doesn't say tea jars anywhere in the description, only on the receipt when received.I have taken several different photos of each one, highlighted all the defects as requested. In several different photo sessions, eventually with them all together as requested.Each picture clearly shows said defects.I was initially told by customer service on the phone they do not want them back, and not to ship them back as they are unable to take them back.The customer service has been completely unacceptable and unprofessional, and asking for me to put trust in that and spend more money is also unacceptable.They refunded me for one of the items and I feel like they just keep kicking the ball to run out of time to return. There final answer was for me to return them at my cost to inspect and then they will let me know. I told them I cannot afford to loose more money and asked for shipping labels and they refused.

      I've been ordering gifts for my clients from this company for the past 10 years but something has changed. The last three gifts I ordered were grossly deficient. The company WILL NOT REFUND my money but insists on only sending replacements, which are just as bad as the originals! I've read several reviews/complaints where the public has experienced exactly what I have! Here's the latest request I sent them. I got a response saying they cannot refund my Item #2 "because a supervisor approved the replacement," and said they will only send a replacement for #3.1.I found old notes in my computer from the third most recent product I purchased (#*******) which had to be returned twice as the base of the wall art was not secured into the frame! It came as two separate pieces requiring work on my part to complete the assembly! I worked with ******************** on that product.2.The second most recent product is mentioned below (Order #******, Grand Total: $39.98). I just received the replacement cutting board, which is EVEN WORSE QUALITY than the first! Ive attached a photo showing both boards side by side. The original board is on the left. You can see the replacement board on the right has even more flaws than the original. I specifically stated that I DID NOT WANT A REPLACEMENT board if the quality of the first board was typical. Apparently, it was typical. I cannot possibly present this cutting board as a gift to my client.3.Ive just opened the most recent product I purchased which is also unacceptable (Order #*******, Grand Total: $69.98). Youll clearly see in the attached pictures that the frame is not cut properly. Not one corner fits! It looks terrible. Again, I will not present such a poor quality product to my clients as a gift. And I do not want a replacement as the replacements for the two previously mentioned purchases were just as bad!

      Thank you for the message. I do take every complaint seriously. And I am happy to go over any issues this customer has had with previous orders.

      Unfortunately I do not see any of the images so if they could be mailed directly to me at ************************************* and will help to resolve the issue to satisfaction.

      Look forward to hearing back.

      Hello,

      Thank you for your comments. I have looked into your order and I do see that you have spoke with our 2 of our representatives. It does show that when the order was placed online the shipping address provided for this order was the incorrect house number. After the order was produced and shipped out there was a conversation with our representative that the shipping address was not right and that someone would check with the address that was provided on the order and an offer to replace the order at 50% off price since the wrong information was provided.I would be happy to discuss a solution with you if you would like to contact me directly.

      I placed a personalized order for a Christmas gift on November 22, 2022. Once I received the shipping confirmation the item showed that it was in ********** ** and had originated from ****** first. I contacted the company who blamed the delay on *********** Customs. I checked with *********** and it was not held there nor arrived. They confirmed the originating Country of the package was ******. Had I know this I would never have ordered it. Thinking it was coming from the ** and have never had an issue with ** companies before I didnt hesitate to order but not if known it started in ******! The company has denied that it originated in ****** even though the tracking information clearly shows it. This was a Christmas gift that I didnt get and at this point have no idea where it really is! I requested a refund which they would not comply but this is just absolutely ridiculous that my package is not moving in transit but they continue to lie to me. I would never buy from here nor recommend this site to anyone!

      Hello,

       

      Thank you for your message. I have reviewed your order and tracking. I apologize if the tracking is so confusing. We are based in ********* ** and this is where the package ships out from.

      We use ***** ****** shipping and the intrim company for that is based in ******, the package never was nor did it ship from ******. Because it goes through an international base of the ****** shipping it will show the actual location of that facility. As is shows on ****** the origin is *********, **.

      If you would like to contact me directly I would be happy to help with a resolution.

      The above noted complaint should not be closed as I have still not received a delivery date or the delivery of item and have requested a full refund. I didnt answer your response in time as I was waiting to hear back from the company.

      I placed an order for a personalized mug. They responded the order would be cancelled. After 3 business days I received a notice that cup was on the way and that they never received my cancellation request so they shipped it anyway. They refused to cancel and charged me $6.95 to ship it. This is not a good company to work with. They are fraudulent!! In the way they do business. Now they will not allow a return!! DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH THIS COMPANY AND THE *** QUALITY WAS SO CHEAP!!! I would never give it to anyway. VERY BAD QUALITY!!

      Hello,

      Thank you for your message. I have looked into your order and I do see you had ordered via Amazon and not our main site. I have worked with Amazon on any messages sent through them for a cancel request for the order. And we were not able to find one. If you could please review your account and make sure it was the correct company that was emailed. I have processed a one time courtesy refund of this order because you said you received a response email but not through the purchasing site.  Your refund was processed back to your Amazon account. If you need any further assistance please feel free to reach out.

      The transaction was the 12/6 I placed an order for a memorial for my dead pet. The order has not been started so I requested to cancel the order today as my mother already ordered a memorial so this one is now not needed and not even been started. I also saw many negative reviews and panicked about the order arriving i proper standard of quality. I messaged to cancel saying the order hasnt even been processed or made but they are refusing to cancel they claim they allows 24 hours to cancel but this was NEVER told to me. I have my oringinal email stating none of this in regard to 24 hours and it wasnt made aware to me on the check out process. I advised the company that this was not made aware anywhere but they have yet to reply as Im sure they are aware its not stated when you place your order!!

      Thank you for your review. I have reviewed your order and email. Your order was placed on 12/6 as stated on our site they do enter production immediately. We received your email 4 days later on 12/10 to cancel. As listed on the item item it self there is a 1-3 day production time so your order was already produced personalized as ordered and ready to ship.  I have stopped your order from shipping and canceled it. Your refund will be processed.

      TThere was no contact from the company, other than to say I would have to deal with the company THEY use for deliveries. My packages were found a week later, at a different location, and luckily they were brought to me.

      They should check their delivery people, I won't do business with them again because of this.
