点评:I visited this place in November with my children to create some items for family members for Christmas. The actual experience of painting was good, the staff member was very good and helpful.
I was told the items would take around 5-7 days (if I recall) but wasn't contacted for nearly 3 weeks which was very tight and was literally the day before we left the area for Christmas. Firstly, I went to collect about 10.30 as Google said it was open, I get there and it was not. I couldn't get through on the phone so messaged the number on the website. They replied saying they were open from 11. Then I went back to collect at 4pm, to be told they were just about to close (Google said 6pm - clearly Google is incorrect and needs changing). I collected my items and was told there were no bags, so had to walk them back home stopping at the high street to buy a bag because they were slipping in the tissue paper. The amount of items that were waiting for collection, I am astonished they did not have any bags, absolutely ridiculous.
As soon as I get home, I have a look to see what they look like before wrapping them, to notice all of the writing had disappeared. I message them to ask where the writing was as assumed this was something they didn't know about. They replied that they had an issue with the pens from the supplier and they were sorry. So they knew and just allowed me to collect without so much of a mention. I replied saying this was not acceptable, it wasn't the items we created so what could they do about this. They offered for us to repaint 1 mug (we created 3 plus other items) or we could try putting the writing back on and reglazing but there was a 50% chance they would smash, which obviously is not a suitable option. The person I was speaking to said this was all they could offer as they were not the owner, so I said I wanted to speak to the owner. And they said they would contact me when the owner was next available. This was 21st December.
I chased up on 30th December and again on the 9th January, only to be completely ignored.
I am absolutely devastated that I spent £70 on items for them not to be what we painted. I was told during the first round of communication that "the mug is intact and painted how it was painted and just the writing has come off" the mug is not how it was painted at all. There has been complete lack of communication and willingness to resolve this issue. It is their responsibility to ensure the equipment and materials work and should not be at my expense.
I was really hoping I would get a response but I have been ignored. I am really upset and had to give the gifts unfinished with the marks where the writing was (picture below) which looks terrible.
I would absolutely avoid this place. They will not help if there are any errors on THEIR part. No willingness to make things better, I have honestly never have an experience like it. Avoid at all costs.
翻译:我 11 月和孩子们一起去过这个地方,为家人制作一些圣诞节物品。绘画的实际体验很好,工作人员非常好,乐于助人。
我被告知这些物品大约需要 5-7 天(如果我没记错的话),但近 3 周都没有联系他们,时间非常紧张,而且就在我们离开该地区过圣诞节的前一天。首先,我大约 10.30 去取货,因为谷歌说它开门,但我到了那里却没有。我打不通电话,所以给网站上的号码发了信息。他们回复说他们从 11 点开始营业。然后我在下午 4 点回去取货,被告知他们即将关门(谷歌说是下午 6 点——显然谷歌错了,需要更改)。我取了我的物品,被告知没有袋子,所以不得不把它们带回家,在大街上停下来买一个袋子,因为它们被薄纸塞住了。等待取货的物品数量之多,我很惊讶他们没有袋子,简直荒唐。
我一到家,就先看了看包装前的样子,发现所有的字迹都消失了。我给他们发信息询问字迹在哪里,以为这是他们不知道的事情。他们回答说,供应商的笔有问题,他们很抱歉。所以他们知道,只是让我去取,没有多说什么。我回答说这是不可接受的,这不是我们制作的物品,所以他们能做什么。他们建议我们重新粉刷一个杯子(我们制作了 3 个加上其他物品),或者我们可以尝试重新写上字迹并重新上釉,但有 50% 的可能性它们会破碎,这显然不是一个合适的选择。和我交谈的人说这是他们所能提供的全部,因为他们不是店主,所以我说我想和店主谈谈。他们说他们会在店主下次有空时联系我。这是 12 月 21 日。
我于 12 月 30 日和 1 月 9 日再次联系他们,但他们完全不理我。
我花了 70 英镑买的东西却不是我们画的,这真是太让我失望了。在第一轮沟通中,他们告诉我“杯子完好无损,画得和画的一样,只是字迹脱落了”,杯子根本不是画的样子。他们完全缺乏沟通,也不愿意解决这个问题。他们有责任确保设备和材料正常运转,不应该让我为此付出代价。
我真的希望能得到回复,但他们却忽视了我。我真的很沮丧,不得不把未完成的礼物送给他们,字迹留下的痕迹(见下图),看起来很糟糕。
我绝对不会去这个地方。如果他们方面有任何错误,他们不会帮忙。他们不愿意让事情变得更好,说实话,我从来没有过这样的经历。不惜一切代价避免。
