SmartSign Has Quality Control Issues They Refuse to Address
This review is really both for SmartSign and Amazon. I will not go into detail about the reason I needed a sign. I will just say that a totally incompetent person came to mow my lawn and mulched it instead. I was then tasked with trying to bring back grass, weeds, anything to stop the mud and soil erosion. I went to Amazon and looked at tons of signs and read tons of reviews on each sign I considered. I ended up choosing a sign from SmartSign. They have a quality control issue. First sign arrived not fully coated with the protective coating. I immediately notified Amazon with photos and ordered a replacement. Second sign arrived with the same problem. Both were returned. I spoke to no less than 35 different agents at Amazon before I FINALLY received a $14.01 refund more than a week after they received the signs, processed the return, and marked it as "return complete." During all of this I contacted SmartSign and told them the whole story. He replied, "I can offer you a 15% discount on another sign." I was stunned. Why would I want another sign after receiving two defective ones? I told him he could offer me a 75% discount, and I still would not buy another on of their signs. They have quality control issues that they simply are unwilling to remedy, and what I went through with them and Amazon to be refunded a measly $14.01 was surreal. After this experience, I no longer trust Amazon and its vendors, and within the next few months, I intend to close my Prime account and likely close my entire account. NO CUSTOMER should have to go through the aggravation I went through to receive a $14.01 refund for two defective signs. I do not recommend Amazon, and I do not recommend SmartSign.
