Take caution with any dealings with

I ordered components from him in December which has not arrived. He has not answered any of my emails since he received my payment.

I warn anyone to think carefully about dealing with him.

If we had received an email we would have replied? we can also be contacted by phone / fax or the web portals?
Anyway now we have been informed, we can ship replacement goods or refund...

As for the buyer warning, please check our eBay feedback

All goods that require courier shipping, customers receive the tracking number by email....
Small items sent by Airmail, this is difficult to prove that we have sent the goods, but we can scan the proof of posting?

Also note: there are 2 sides to every story, how can we proove that you have not received the goods?

Ive tried that too, tons of emails without any answer. I ended up writing that i would have the bank withdraw the transfer to his web admin which i had gotten a email from long time ago (some family member). Suddenly he replied with some crap about that he had never got my mails and that he had written me several mails. Funny thing is that this has happend twice.

On another funny note, i wrote him a mail from another gmail account under another name asking him for some buying advice and suddenly there were no problems at all responding

Anyway both times I got my goods and they are supreme quality, so my advice is to only use his ebay shop, then at least you have the possibility to file a paypal disbute if you are so lucky to experience his total lack of service...

If you want another "Marchant Dice is not responding to emails" story, take a look at And So Build Number 3 begins...... , such a shame since his products a such nice quality

I have talked with my guys....as some of our customers are "home users" we think that these customers have a virus that they are unaware of....this virus is uses the customer email address to send spam....our system detects this and destroys the emails....when you use a new email address then we receive the email, no problem!

Many thanks for the note regarding "SUPREME QUALITY" we only supply quality components with guarantees!

Haha, hilarious comment... Nothing better when somebody tries to blame you as the customer for having done something wrong to cover up their own crappy service.

First of all, this is a gmail, not some outlook thingy mail. Im not a 50-year-old barely-knows-how-a-computer-works guy. Second, we communicated via this mail before and after the looooong periode of silence. Third, i never gotten any of the emails you had supposely sent (and NO, they did not end up in my junk mail).

Sorry for sounding a bit harsh, but that is the lamest excuse ive heard in a long long time. Instead of making excuses for a obvious problem, try to rethink the way you treat your website customers. For exsample, set up some service goals like:

Max 1h after order is placed a confirmation mail is sent
When customers write, have it automatically reply with a ticket
Respond to custom emails withing 24h

I will probably do business with you again, so i hope by then you have fixed your problems, both technical and regarding your service level

[marchantdice]

You have missed the point...

It is the customers email address that becomes SPAM and ends up in our Junk ..

Anyway we will take all comments onboard and see how we can improve...
it would be a waste not to keep selling top quality items....

[Guldberg]

Read my points again, i used the excact same mail to communicate with you both before and after you didnt felt like answering.

Anyway glad you are taking this into consideration, I only find it funny you havent bother the times i pointed it out when ive done business with you. Back then it was also only excuses

I would prefer a refund and have emailed you as well as this post.

Hi all,

I gave up on Mr Marchantdice a long time ago because of poor service and his prices aren’t great either.

I now buy my slides, ball screws and electronics from Zap Automation http://www.slidesandballscrews.com/ or http://www.motioncontrolproducts.co.uk/

Kress spindle from http://www.cnc-plus.de/index.php?cat...cessories.html

Trapezoidal screws from http://www.ondrives.com/products.asp?subcatid=72 .

My advice is to shop around for better prices and customer care.

Regards,
John
