    Thumbs up lost package = great JRB customer service

    I ordered one of JRB's quilts, and the package was lost by the post office, or perhaps grabbed by someone after it was dropped at the destination.

    My trip is in a week and time is running out. I called JRB and explained the situation and gave them the post office investigation case number and other details. JRB then immediately sent me another quilt. They didn't wait for the post office to figure out what happened - they knew my trip was coming and that I needed the quilt and they didn't hesitate to make sure I got what I ordered.

    Top notch products and top notch service from JRB...thanks Jack & Jack.

    Thumbs up

    That's exceptional customer service ... good for you and good for them. Thanks for sharing that ... as if we needed any more proof of the good cottage industries associated with this group!

    Wow! That's fantastic! Ya see -- this is why I come here. With all the bad news circulating out in the real world, time and time again I log on here and there is a post with someone doing something great for someone else. The AT has trail angels and we have Hammock Forum angels. HF angels need a good nickname. The Jacks will be at the top of the list.

    I can't say I'm shocked, but I'm happy for you.

    That's one great thing about the cottage industry, they realize that their customers come first and then a super close second is making a great product.

    This is great to hear. Sometimes it's easy to overlook the guys who have been doing this for a while...there are lots of posts raving about new vendors having great customer service, and all the while JRB has been doing same-day shipping and all kinds of other great customer service. But not as many people post about it...it's just "expected" because they're already established.

    So good on you and good on JRB (and all the other vendors with the great customer service). Bad on the USPS. Hope they figure it out soon.

    When ever I need anything I always try to buy from the vendors here on the forum. I have never had anything but superior customer service from all of them that I have dealt with. I believe that they need and deserve our support and business. I for one appreciate what they do for our community.

    Well for me having a package lost by the WONDERFUL USPS not too long ago I can relate with that feeling, although I had to pay for my order again(but that's ok), very glad to hear about JRB that just shows their commitment to their customers, well done Jack's, well done! Jeff is oh soooooo right, JRB has been doing this for a while now, so I guess it's easy to overlook the well established sometimes! It's definitely not on purpose though!!!!!!!!
