May 3, [redacted] Revdex.comNorth Wabash Ave., Ste#2006Chicago, IL *** [redacted] [redacted] We have completed the investigation of [redacted] complaint regarding his dissatisfaction with the charges he was assessed for a part ordered by our technician As clarification, the parts we sell through Sears PartsDirect are for do-it-yourself repairs or by other technicians, whether Sears or not, and as such are sort of a wholesale pricingThe parts do not come with schematics or instructions for installing, so it requires a certain amount of knowledge in some instances to use themAdditionally, while the parts have a warranty against defects, they are not returnable once installed if it turns out the part does not fix the problem or if the part is damaged while installing itIn the case of electronic control boards, improper installation can cause the board to short out and this would not be considered a defect; thus the consumer would be out the entire cost of the part When the same parts are ordered by our in-home repair technicians, we take on any liability regarding that partSo if it is installed wrong and it causes the part to fail, or if it is determined that the part is not needed after it is installed, then the consumer would be able to get a replacement or a refundThis retail price reflects any internal costs we have for shipping, warehousing on trucks, or for sourcing them locally when needed, and also the probability of damaging the part in some waySome parts have only a small difference in price between the wholesale and retail cost and others have a larger difference, again because of internal expensesIt is always the consumer’s choice on whether to have the peace of mind to have us take on that liability, or to do a repair themselvesWe would also note that we do not advertise through Sears service that we match prices, whether through another Sears operated business or a different service provider As far as the two payments are concerned, when we determine that parts will have to be ordered for a return visit, our technician initially collects the price of the part along with our minimum trip/diagnostic feeIn this way, if the consumer never has us install the part or has us go back out, neither party would owe the other any moniesSo our technician collected the price of the part and the trip fee, which came to $with the tax, and then collected the remaining labor of $74.00, once he returned and installed the partIn most cases at this point we stand pretty firm that we presented the cost of the part in our estimate and the estimate was accepted by [redacted] , which means no refund is owed by us and would generally not be providedWith that said, in [redacted] case it did take an inordinate amount of time for the manufacturer to provide the part and he apparently waited patiently from December until March for the repair to be completedWhile we have no control over how quickly the part is shipped, or if it is on back-order, because of the delay we would be willing to provide a 20% discount on the repair as a courtesyThis amounts to a refund of $and if [redacted] could contact me at [redacted] or email me at [redacted] with the first digits of his digit [redacted] card number ending in [redacted] (the [redacted] card used for the first payment), we would issue this refund back to his [redacted] card; we do not need the expiration date or the security code since we are just processing a refund rather than a saleWe apologize that we even have to ask for this, but so much time has elapsed since the payment was made that the full credit card information is no longer accessible in our systemIn the interim, since we are willing to provide a partial refund as a courtesy and are only awaiting contact from [redacted] , we have closed our fileWe apologize to [redacted] and appreciate the opportunity to address this matter Please feel free to contact me if you have any further questions or concernsSincerely, [redacted] Team Manager, Regulatory Complaints [redacted]

May 3, [redacted] Revdex.comNorth Wabash Ave., Ste#2006Chicago, IL *** [redacted] [redacted] We have completed the investigation of [redacted] complaint regarding his dissatisfaction with the charges he was assessed for a part ordered by our technician As clarification, the parts we sell through Sears PartsDirect are for do-it-yourself repairs or by other technicians, whether Sears or not, and as such are sort of a wholesale pricingThe parts do not come with schematics or instructions for installing, so it requires a certain amount of knowledge in some instances to use themAdditionally, while the parts have a warranty against defects, they are not returnable once installed if it turns out the part does not fix the problem or if the part is damaged while installing itIn the case of electronic control boards, improper installation can cause the board to short out and this would not be considered a defect; thus the consumer would be out the entire cost of the part When the same parts are ordered by our in-home repair technicians, we take on any liability regarding that partSo if it is installed wrong and it causes the part to fail, or if it is determined that the part is not needed after it is installed, then the consumer would be able to get a replacement or a refundThis retail price reflects any internal costs we have for shipping, warehousing on trucks, or for sourcing them locally when needed, and also the probability of damaging the part in some waySome parts have only a small difference in price between the wholesale and retail cost and others have a larger difference, again because of internal expensesIt is always the consumer’s choice on whether to have the peace of mind to have us take on that liability, or to do a repair themselvesWe would also note that we do not advertise through Sears service that we match prices, whether through another Sears operated business or a different service provider As far as the two payments are concerned, when we determine that parts will have to be ordered for a return visit, our technician initially collects the price of the part along with our minimum trip/diagnostic feeIn this way, if the consumer never has us install the part or has us go back out, neither party would owe the other any moniesSo our technician collected the price of the part and the trip fee, which came to $with the tax, and then collected the remaining labor of $74.00, once he returned and installed the partIn most cases at this point we stand pretty firm that we presented the cost of the part in our estimate and the estimate was accepted by [redacted] , which means no refund is owed by us and would generally not be providedWith that said, in [redacted] case it did take an inordinate amount of time for the manufacturer to provide the part and he apparently waited patiently from December until March for the repair to be completedWhile we have no control over how quickly the part is shipped, or if it is on back-order, because of the delay we would be willing to provide a 20% discount on the repair as a courtesyThis amounts to a refund of $and if [redacted] could contact me at [redacted] or email me at [redacted] with the first digits of his digit [redacted] card number ending in [redacted] (the [redacted] card used for the first payment), we would issue this refund back to his [redacted] card; we do not need the expiration date or the security code since we are just processing a refund rather than a saleWe apologize that we even have to ask for this, but so much time has elapsed since the payment was made that the full credit card information is no longer accessible in our systemIn the interim, since we are willing to provide a partial refund as a courtesy and are only awaiting contact from [redacted] , we have closed our fileWe apologize to [redacted] and appreciate the opportunity to address this matter Please feel free to contact me if you have any further questions or concernsSincerely, [redacted] Team Manager, Regulatory Complaints [redacted]
