I am so pissed, I just clicked on the last page of this thread without reading the last few entries because I must vent pure frustration! I just called Tony and his co-worker said that my dryer was not sent out yesterday because they haven't received the bases! What the heck is going on? Now I'm just about ready to ask for my money back and pay full price with another merchant, danggit! What is up?:wallbash:
 
Aw Dayummmm! What is the deal? First warranty problems then the fronts will not open and now they only have the top half the dryer and are still waiting on bases that they said would be in on 3/12? What is going on?
 
I am trying very hard not to get carried away with negative thoughts. But when I called to speak with Tony, a co-worked stated to call back because Tony was on the phone. I waited and called back, then I was told that Tony is not there! I smell foul business! VSLADY just wrote a post stating that she received an email from Tony that said, VERBATIM, he would send out the 514s on March 12. That was yesterday. Why would Tony send that email if he didn't have both parts of the dang dryer? Today they saying that the dryers were not sent because they didn't receive the stands for the dryers yet? I am getting very upset over this at this point.:eek:ffrant:

It seems to me that Tony is avoiding us. You and VSLady! Something just ain't right here. :nono:
 
Oh, it's on, as far as I'm concerned. I just called again and spoke with "Henry" this time. I asked Henry if I could speak with Tony. Henry said Tony isn't there. So you are right, Tony is avoiding us.:crybaby:

This is not a good feeling. I can only hope that he is just avoiding us but not VSLady or Tenjoy. I know earlier on in this thread that they mentioned to us not to call Tony ourselves but that they will speak to him for us. I am just assuming that they are to busy to talk to him right now...Maybe:look:
 
Deep breaths---*out with the bad"--*in with the good*. :lachen:

I don't believe there is "fowl play" on behalf of Tony, because I mailed (or my bank mailed for me) a certified check that has not been cashed.

I think the bank even made the check payable to Tony or Imperial Sales c/o Tony...something like that...but the point is the check has not been cashed. I also suspect that those money orders have not been cashed, either. If there were misdoings at the hand of Tony, checks/MOs would have been cashed first thing and money would be in the wind by now.

Though I don't like the thought that my Pibbs will not arrive in time for this weeks wash - I believe this is a genuine mistake due to the distributor. They gave a date and Tony passed this date on to us confident that their vendor would come through.

Hey, stuff happens...Imma hang in there just a bit longer before I pull it outta the holster :grin:
 
Ladies, just so you know the deal with me, I have demanded my money back and gave Tony a piece of my mind. Good deal or not, if a merchant thinks I'm desperate for his goods, to the degree where he doesn't keep his word, he can shove his goods where the sun don't shine. I will get another deal on my own. This did not work out for me, and I cannot contain my inner ghetto girl when she feels validated to rear her head! Tony had better have my money order back to me by March 17, 2008. Now I can smile and feel much better! Homey don't play! Tony tried to play me like I had to buy his 514. I have waited as long as I could. My patience has run out! I didn't appreciate what seemed to be lies coming from Tony. :drunk:

:blush: Oh Wow...You did? :look: What did Tony/Henry say? Were they very apologetic(sp?)???
 
Well, I ordered a Pibbs this weekend from them. I didn't get the deal because I thought it was over (that was laziness on my part because I didn't scroll through all the pages of the thread).

Well, I called them just to ask about my order because I'm going to be out of town for a few days and didn't want the package to just sit outside. I don't know who I spoke to, but he was VERY nice. I didn't tell him anything about this deal. He honestly told me that the bases did not show up. They're hoping to get them in a few days. That was enough for me. I guess because I wasn't down with the deal I'm not too upset. I guess it will get here when it gets here. I just don't want the dryer sitting outside my door while I'm not here.

Then someone else will have their big head up under my dryer reaping all the benefits. LOL.
 
I sent my money order on March 4 and haven't heard or received anything yet. I'll just wait, as long as I get it in the end. I haven't been on here to check for updates so I had no idea of what has been going on. I know the ladies are working on it and doing the best they can so I'm just going to wait until further notice.
 
I have avoided the board for 1 week -HUGE EXAM thinking when I get back my Pibbs will be here :nono:. I am going out of town this weekend and my house will be vacated. I hope that my Pibbs doesn't come while I'm gone but looking at the way things are going it seems like I might be waiting till April to get that thing....:rofl:. You know I have very little to look forward too since all I do is study and study and study. Sigh well I can contain my inner ghetto girl for a bit longer before I proceed to the war cry :bud:. Lol just kidding - I really want that drier. :blush:
 
My money order was received on Feb. 29 and I can't wait to get my Pibbs. But at this point I'm not stressing because it seems that a lot of the people who participated in this deal received their product as promised. So if there is some unforseen delay that couldn't be helped I can deal with it. I don't feel that anything untoward is going on. More than likely the distibutor didn't mail out the bases on time. As long as I'm kept updated I'm good.
 
I missed out on this deal but I wanted to add a diff perspective to this whole thing.

As a business owner who has to get materials from different distributors, often times the distributors will give you their word about when something will be shipped and delivered, and then dont deliver on their word.

I am sure this Tony fella is a good man and keeps his word as much as he can. Most ladies got their Pibbs as promised and in the time promised ( I think). I think ya'll should give the man a chance to come through. Unforeseen things can and often times do happen. As long as Tony is in communication with vs and ten, then I think hes not trying to gipp anyone. My 2cents.
 
Tony or Henry weren't apologetic or nice about this situation. That's why I ended up asking for my money back. I am a nice person. I know how to speak to people. But they spoke to me as if I had no choice and as if it's not their fault that the dryers didn't go out. Getting a PIBBS for a few dollars off ain't worth the aggravation it has been to receive the goods from Imperial. I can pass on it. I would rather take my money order from Tony and buy a PIBBS from a merchant that can deliver the goods within two or three days of placing an order. I realize sometimes you have to wait when ordering things, but I will wait only so long and Tony's time is up because he has not kept his word. He shouldn't give dates, if he's not sure. I sent my money order nearly a month ago to Tony. I have demonstrated patience. But I have waited long enough when it comes to sending my money to get what I paid for. I also noticed those guys at Imperial pryed hard to find out where I was calling from. They didn't care about my personal name. They wanted to know if I was from LHCF. Once I revealed that, they seemed rather cold, if you ask me. Henry said that he has worked at Imperial only seven months. It remains to be seen how long you ladies can wait for your dryers because you may be waiting a very long time. If you can wait, good. I can only wait so long and I have gotten to that point where I won't wait any longer. I wish TENJOY had not called me because Tony would not have gotten my money until I knew he had the complete dryer. Where did she get my phone number from? My phone number isn't listed anywhere on this website. Tony must have given out our phone numbers. Anyway, I wouldn't win a hundred dollars on BOILING POINTS! :grin:

Hey, I TOTALLY understand. There is no need for them to get nasty. :nono:
 
Hey Ms. BT, I'm the same lady that called you yesterday about the problem on your web site. I certainly appreciate your two cents as a business owner. What has gotten a bad taste in my mouth with Tony is the fact that he sent VSLADY an email saying what he would do, as if he had received the bases to the dryers. There has been no other communication after that, so we're in the dark and I'VE HAD ENOUGH DISAPPOINTMENT FROM IMPERIAL SALES. I'm done. It's over. Where is my money?

Hush down! If you or anyone else want the money orders back, PM me and i will be sure it gets back to you. As far as your phone number, It was with your money order sweetie. Tony kept a detailed list of all money orders and those that had RSVP's. It was forward for the courtesy of calling you guys when the pibbs came in stock, which they did. However, there was a shortage in floor stands.

With the floor stands, there is an option of floor or wall mount. Because its a commercial salon dryer, the wall mount is most popular. The shipment came with both, but the the floor stands were used up. Even with the manufacturer (Pibbs Company).

When we began this deal, we expected about 25-50 dryers to be sold to LHCF, however it has neared 200 dryers.

I can understand everyone being anxious.....hell im anxious to get this over with. But **** happens. We all did our bes to make this go smoothly as possible, Tony didnt think the shipment was gonna be an issue.

These dryers come from italy. We all know what international shipping can be like. No one is trying to pull the okey doke. Tony has been every bit easy and kind to Vslady and I. But having 50-11 people calling him about the same thing all day, I can see why he would "hide". Hell I hide too :look:

Oh so that was YOU!!!

Hiya!!!!

Did it work after all??
 
Miss Tenjoy, I am definitely one to hush, lol. Thanks for trying hun. That's all I can say is that you did your best for everyone. It is very much appreciated that you tried, but we must speak on flaws regarding the deal. When you called, why come, lol, why come you didn't reveal that the man didn't have all of the equipment yet? That would have been my red flag to hold on to the money. I surely wouldn't have sent money for something that was not in stock. I will PM you so that you can make sure that I get my money back honey. I'm tired of feeling anxious about that dryer. I was lickin my chops to get it. Looking at my doorstep everyday like a dang fool. That dryer ain't traveling fast enough from Italy for me. I will go after other deals to be gotten for a 514. I hope this deal works out for everyone else. Thanks!

The equipment did come in, some stands too. Just not all the stands, obviously the full shipment didn'it come in. Sorry for your disappointment. Be sure to PM me (and anyone else who would like there MO back), I dont want anyone feeling like their money is being held hostage.

This has been a great deal so far. In any business things will happen, the world is not perfect. It is not necessary to call the man a liar. All of the other ladies who sent their money at the beginning of this deal got their dryers as promised and very fast from what i have read. I for one am appreciative that he extended this deal when he didn't have to.

:yep: Im pretty daggone ghetto period (not just inner) and yea Im a little upset. I personally would not have had people send money if the shipments werent ready to go out as I recieved the MOs. :rolleyes: BUT I have a feeling he sensed (from the 50-11 calls we were NOT supposed to make) that us ladies were anxious and he tried to rush things. We are gettting a deal form some who doesnt owe us jack. Im being appreciative and a little sympathetic (for now). I will await an update and maybe something extra in my box to soothe me over for having to wait so long... :look: Im just saying...

Nope.......don't want my money back :nono: I want my BIG BLACK BABY:yep: and I am going to sit here and wait for it. I can't even imagine what it took to put this thing together and I have seen on this site that people have gotten there dryer sooooo I am going to wait.....right here by the mail box......in the cold and the rain :sick:.....I am going to wait.
 
Guess we won't be getting any other deals. Oh well, glad I took advantage of this deal early. It saved me some cash and Black Beauty (Pibbs 514) came very quickly and I am very satisfied with my purchase.

I agree things happen and it doesn't sound like any type of fraud is taking place...in my opinion. As it was stated earlier, the orders now are much bigger than expected and it seems there was just a delay in a shipment but perhaps I missed something. I also stongly believe people react to you the way you react to them.

Thanks again for the ladies that put this together. I do appreciate it. It says a lot that you guys are helping those that are angry about their orders because you don't have to. Thanks!!!
