Good for that store owner for doing the right thing. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-opposite-of-raes-service-issues#post-509798 Fri, 13 Jan 2012 19:24:41 +0000 Transcona Shannon 509798@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think that's exactly it Jayne - small locally owned businesses need to earn and keep every customer because they simply don't get the huge numbers and can afford to tick off anyone who might not then return. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-opposite-of-raes-service-issues#post-509791 Fri, 13 Jan 2012 19:19:37 +0000 jayne 509791@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fantastic and the good experience should make you want to return and tell lots of people. I think size means some stores don't have to think that way as there is always another customer. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-opposite-of-raes-service-issues#post-509786 Fri, 13 Jan 2012 19:16:03 +0000 Suz 509786@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>WOW. </p> <p>And I can't wait to see your new purchases!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-opposite-of-raes-service-issues#post-509784 Fri, 13 Jan 2012 19:15:21 +0000 kimlee 509784@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That is an excellent example of customer service. And it sounds like you found some great pieces. I can't wait to see you show them off! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-opposite-of-raes-service-issues#post-509783 Fri, 13 Jan 2012 19:15:10 +0000 rae 509783@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>*clapping excitedly*</p> <p>How wonderful, Shannon! Perhaps the small stores deserve more attention. Glad to see that service is not completely dead! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-opposite-of-raes-service-issues#post-509771 Fri, 13 Jan 2012 19:10:19 +0000 Transcona Shannon 509771@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I went on my lunch hour today to a new vintage shop that opened up about 10 minutes from work...yeah, I know...SCY is blown out of the water!!! Anyway...found a fabulous vintage cardigan (feel like I should be lawn bowling while wearing it), flowy tomato red-white polka dot jacket, my black vintage beads (yipeee) and a beautiful vintage flower brooch. Now it took me 20 minutes to find a parking spot and I had to pay $5 for parking. But whatever...I was happy with my purchases. I got back to the office to show off my new/old goodies and lo and behold...the brooch was not in the bag...anywhere. I called the tiny and gorgeous store to tell them and the owner was not only apologetic, but has arranged for a courier to bring me the brooch to my office within the next two hours at their expense! Now THAT'S service!</p> <p>Here's photos of the store <a href="http://simplyrosie.ca/?p=1630" rel="nofollow">http://simplyrosie.ca/?p=1630</a> - isn't it gorgeous? </p>
