The choice of spending time on correspondence or actually working and making things must be particularly tuff for cottage gear makers I imagine.
Really?!I`d second the telephone @paul - much more efficient than all this typing...
Horses for courses...there's sometimes when I've requested bespoke gear that I thought it would have been far easier to have a quick phone conversation than back and forth on email. Email does have it uses though as described above, sending and responding when the times convenient.
I know some cottage manufacturers only look at emails on an evening, that's fine by me. A message on the Contact page 'I only check emails twice per week' would satisfy most people.
This isn't really about the method of communication, it's the lack of. There's far too many jobs these days where the working day orientates around the Inbox.
What I don't understand is how you can blame design issues in one thread while stating in this one that they were doing the photo shoot in early Jan.
Was it a photo shoot of faulty quilts?
Hi Peter,
For sure you'll get your prize. I have nothing to win if I don't send you the quilt, and I'm already losing our good reputation.
As I said to you we got a returned parcel notification last week. Unfortunately, we haven't recovered the parcel yet. This issue is driving me crazy too.
It also seems we both a communication problem, since this is first news I have of your offer re UPS shipment. We'll send the parcel via another courier, and of course you don't have to nothing for this.
Finally, another customer cancelled his order for a custom Foratata Quilt (not a standard one indeed). That's true and I understand his point. But it's also true that ee returned him the money same day.
Marco.
