No Customer Service Availability
I have had good luck in the past with this business. This year I placed an order on 12/8/22 for a snowboard jacket and pants. The Jacket shipped and arrived without the pants. I cannot get ahold of customer service, I’ve called several times and waited over an hour each time. I’ve sent two emails with no response and the chat has a backlog of 90 + in the queu. At this point I would take a refund but would prefer that pants if they would get here before half the season is over. Either way I can’t get a hold of anyone who can let me know.

Customer filed this dispute on 2/14/On 2/14/we shipped him a new model at no additional costWe also covered the return shipping back to our company which is something the manufacturer of the board would not do for the customer which is why the customer wanted to file the claim through us so he could avoid paying shipping feesThis issue was resolved the date the complaint was filed

As we are quickly approach the end of the snowboard/ski season most of the website has been marked down between 50%-75% off original retail priceThis customer was able to take advance of our end of season sale which resulted in him getting two pairs of cross country ski boots for 50% off the retail valueWe also have a promotion to help customer get the new product as quickly as possible with a discounted two day service for $(actual freight cost company is $or more on average)In addition to marked downs in pricing and discounted two day deliver service we also offer discounted return labelsThe labels we offer are thru UPSWith a label from our company you get the label emailed to you within hours directly from UPS, return insurance on package if it is lost or damaged before it reaches us, faster return service back to our company.Most of the items we sale are heavy items that on average would cost a customer upwards of $or more to returnThe discounted return label rate can vary depending on how many items being returnedWhen we receive a phone call or a chat regarding returns we always give our customers all the options for return serviceJust like our return/exchange form states customer has the option to take the package to UPS, USPS or FedEx and is responsible for return shipping back to our companyCustomer returned both pairs of cross country ski boots and a refund was issued for the product in the amount of $We are terribly sorry we will not be able to refund customer for the return shipping back to our company as no label was purchased from us directly and money was refunded for original charge via pay-pal

In an effort to strive for customer satisfaction we will bend our current return policy and refund the $for the price of the snowboard pantsThis refund will be processed via Paypal and will take 3-business days to go back to your account

Our website and our return form clearly stated we have a day return policy for any unused itemsWe do have a customer absolute policy but we can only try to help the customer with the current company policiesOur current policy is returns must be made in days of purchase

(The consumer indicated he/she DID NOT accept the response from the business.) i've already paid $to return the item, i've already receive a full return on the item, would rather have a discount on future purchase to off set the shipping cost, if that's possible

The customer had a warranty issueWe do not offer the warranty it is given by the manufactureThe manufacture of the product doesn't cover return shipping for a warranty claim the customer understood this to be the case as he spoke with a rep from the manufacture directly since he didn't want to have to pay to return product we assisted him with the return shippingWe then gave him a credit for the defective product and reshipped a upgraded model This situation wasn't handled in the manner we would have liked but we did honor the customer request and get a replacement shipped

I am rejecting this response because: I am fully aware that the issue with my board was a manufacturer issue, and not a retailer issue. So I would like to say first that I am grateful that they eventually replaced the board 9 weeks later. I would like to reiterate though that my problem is that I've been lied to multiple times by this retailer's employee. I asked them multiple times, knowing that my board's damage is a manufacturer issue, if it is something they can forward to the manufacturer and they dishonestly said "Yes" (I have their emails to prove if needed). Like I said before, if they had just honestly said "sorry we can't do that" at the beginning, I wouldn't even have bothered sending it to them. Looking through other BBB complaints and online reviews for this retailer, it seems other customers had the same issue, where the retailer promised something but did not deliver. All I'm asking to close this case is for them to admit that their employee was dishonest, that her behavior is unacceptable for the company, and that they would do something to improve their ethics. I don't think this is something impossible. All I'm looking for is their word.

Customer placed order on 6/24/for 2-Continental Gatorskin Fold Duraskin Bike Tire BlackThis order was processed and shipped out on 6/27/Customer was email tracking number [redacted] This package was processed and delivered by UPS on 7/1/per tracking detailsWe received a phone call from the customer on 7/7/stated she did not receive the package that was delivered on 7/1/and she believed someone stole the packageAt that time we explained to the customer we will have to do a claim with UPS and we have to allow the driver up to business days to complete the followup for this missing packageThe customer contacted us again on 7/17/we explained to the customer that UPS still has till 7/19/to update claim statusAt that time we told the customer the earliest we would be able to do a reshipment will be 7/20/but we have to allow UPS the time to investigate the stolen/missing package claimWe are terribly sorry the package wasn't received by cardholder and we are working with UPS to get the missing package located and/or reshipping a new order within the time allotted

I am rejecting this response because: First of all, I issued the complaint on 11/30, the day I received the product with an email to prove so, no one got back to me until 12/9, and I did not get a final resolution and refund until 1/(I waited to post this until I did.) I had to call every week to check in on itI spoke to over six different people and no one could give me an answer as to why I got the wrong product until now.This seems like both the manufacture's problem and The House'sI would encourage the House's team to check things like the actual product and the advertising images they receive (since they are responsible for their website and the products they sell) so it doesn't become a large customer issue.I would still be weary of this company because who knows how many products they advertise online but send the customer something different, and it takes a Revdex.com response to get anything done about it

DJs Boardshop Customer Service Wed, Jan 20, at 3:To: Steve ***@activesportsinc.com
Hey Steve, Below is our reply to the above mentioned Revdex.com claimI have printed off a copy of this reply and
gave it to MarkLet me know if you have any questionsThanks!
We sincerely regret how this situation played outOur customer placed an order for a bicycle on Amazon.com on 12/31/at 5:16am CSTWithin hours of the order being placed, we had the bike boxed up and placed on a UPS trailer with a UPS tracking number of: XXXXXXXXXXX.XXXXXXXDue to the New Years holiday falling the next day and UPS's holiday delivery/pick up schedule the package didn't get its origin scan until the next business day, 1/4/I have attached a screen shot showing our customer's order within our Amazon Seller Central account showing when the order was placed and when the order was to be shipped out, 1/4/Our customer emailed in two days later, 1/2/16, looking to cancel the orderWe had replied saying that since the bike had been boxed up and was on a UPS trailer with an assigned tracking number we couldn't cancel at that point but offered to have the bike rerouted to our warehouseThen once we had confirmation of the successful reroute we were going to refund his paymentOur customer wanted to be refunded right away, but we informed him that we needed to ensure the package had been rerouted successfully prior to his refund being processedOnce I replied to our customer informing him that I had contacted UPS and scheduled the reroute he wrote back saying he still wanted the bike and did not want us to have the package reroutedOur customer was refunded the same day we got confirmation from UPS that the package had been rerouted back to our warehouse which Was 1/7H

I am rejecting this response because:This business needs to be held accountable for its poor business practicesI have returned the bike which is trueUPS package #*** I have not yet however received a refundI am tired of playing games with this company and I can not believe its lack of respect for its customers and lack of customer serviceI would be ashamed if any of my employees made our customers feel the way that this company has made me feelThis company truly did near to nothing to try to rectify this situation and has absolutely horrible communication skills
