All that glitters is not gold
I planned to order two chairs however there were no reviews available at the time on the supplier. So I decided to order one first so that I could check whether or not they sold the product they advertised. I waited for the chair to arrive and noticed it was not worth the trouble. They had shipped one with cushions which were made of a cheap leather imitation contrary to what they had announced in their ad as seen below:
"Our chairs are made with strict attention to detail to preserve its original characteristics. Each chair features high grade leather from Italy which is hand selected piped tufted and individually sewn by expert leather craftsmen."
In addition to the above mentioned they actually reduce the cost of the chairs by skimping on leather material.
A more serious issue is the fact that this supplier advertises its products on Amazon and declares that they are in stock. The truth of the matter is that the supplier receives our purchase orders through Amazon and then orders these chairs from the manufacturer in China. In turn the manufacturer in China ship the chairs straight to our address without even going through the Amazon vendor facilities which in this case solely acts as a middleman.
To make things worse the mail receipt that accompanied the chair package declares that the chair was a gift and states its cost as one for $80.00. I am not sure if this procedure complies with importation regulations.
I would recommend you not to bother with unreliable firms or companies. I also recommend that Amazon should
always perform a thorough screen on companies that advertise on your website. Mainly those that deal with imported items and/or products.More detail ...
