I REALLY wanted to like this store. It popped up on my shop app and I liked all the variety of options this had for several species. Placed order on 12/8/24. All items listed as in stock. Almost a week later (12/14) sent email to get an update since it had not shipped. No response. Label created 12/16but not picked up or in the hands of delivery service till 12/19. Got email notification on 12/17 that two items were out of stock and I was refunded. Delivery eta was 12/23. Continued to sit at location and then delivery date changed to 12/30?! Sent second email to Talis to try and inquire why such a delayed delivery. No response. Went to actual website today 12/23 and trying to use their chat feature which communication is very slow with no current resolution. Trying to understand why $11.99 delivery fee for two small and lightweight items is taking nearly two weeks to be delivered. All in all I will not be ordering from company in the future. -Poor customer service -items listed as in stock may not in fact be in stock and notified for over a week from purchase date -over a week to get order shipped from purchase date -VERY expensive delivery fee for not any kind of priority mail service

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us. We truly regret that your order did not meet your expectations, and we deeply value your feedback as it helps us improve. We understand how frustrating delays and lack of timely responses can be, especially during the holiday season when shipments are expected to arrive quickly. Please know that the delay in shipping was, in part, due to holiday-related surges with our shipping courier. Once packages are handed off to the courier, we rely on them to deliver efficiently, though we acknowledge that this does not alleviate the inconvenience caused. We also sincerely apologize for the delay in notifying you about the out-of-stock items and the impact this had on your experience with us. We are revisiting our inventory management and communication processes to ensure such incidents are minimized moving forward. Regarding the shipping fee, we aim to cover costs for secure and reliable delivery. That said, we will reevaluate these charges alongside the delivery timelines to ensure they align more closely with the level of service you deserve. Again, we apologize for the inconvenience this caused and appreciate you bringing these concerns to our attention. Should you have further questions or require assistance, please do not hesitate to reach out directly. Thank you and Merry Christmas

Placed an order for an under gravel filter for my fishtank build, the original order was placed on Oct 17th. After a week I still had not been notified of a shipment. I reached out to Talis to confirm the order would be shipped shortly. Upon contact Talis informed me that they did not have the ordered item in stock (even though the item was listed in stock at time of order) and it would be an additional 1-2 weeks before they would have the item in stock. Due to the delay I requested the order be cancelled and refunded. Talis confirmed the cancellation of my order and started a refund (via PayPal, my original payment source). HOWEVER, after a few days they cancelled my refund, without notification or reason. So at this point it has been almost a month since my original order, I have a dispute opened with PayPal to re-request my expected refund, and Talis has not responded to either my direct emails, or to the Paypal dispute. UPDATE - 11/13/24 - Once this review was posted Talis immediately responded to this negative review, but still has not processed a refund. They are claiming that because the value was held by PayPal due to myself opening a claim, they now "cannot offer a duplicate payment". I take issue with this as the company should obviously be able to send me a payment, out of pocket at this point since they caused the issue by intentionally cancelling my refund. They should take immediate action to close this claim and issue. Additionally, Talis was the party that cancelled my original refund and STILL has not provided ANY reason that the original refund was cancelled. (not even a "whoops we screwed up") TL:DR, don't buy from Talis, they likely don't have the item in stock, and will screw with you to hold on to a refund when requested.

Thank you for reaching out and bringing this to our attention. I sincerely apologize for the inconvenience you've experienced with your order and the refund process. When a claim is opened with PayPal, the platform automatically deducts the amount in question, which means we cannot issue a duplicate payment. Rest assured, once PayPal approves the claim, you will receive your refund. We appreciate your patience and understanding as we work through this. If there's anything else we can do to assist you during this time, please feel free to reach out directly.

I, too, have ordered the same Arcadia reptile bulb systems through Talis-us with the big shipping and handling cost. They quickly sent part of my order, with no communication regarding my missing LED light kit. I sent 1 email- ignored. 2nd email received a "generic" non-specific response that the product would be shipped in days....still nothing. I ALSO got the weird "subscription" message from them (how can I subscribe to something when you cant even send me my complete first order??). 3rd and 4th email I sent asking for a refund since I am frustrated and can find the item locally at every PetSmart and a local shop...another generic email that they are out of stock (though they never mention exactly what I ordered) and want to know what I want to do......I ALREADY TOLD YOU I WANT A REFUND, PERIOD! 5th email - I am very unhappy, want a refund, and I am forced to leave reviews of my terrible experience while my dragon still waits for her lights, and they hold my refund and S/H hostage. Talis-us - I see that your company responds to reviews left here in a way that is quite positive and looks sincere, so you must value your public appearance. Additionally, I see rave reviews of your stores; however, the ridiculous "generic" email responses to customer concerns is unprofessional and is an obvious pattern of your poor online customer service. My time is valuable and should not have to be spent repeatedly tracking down my products only to receive non-specific, seemingly automatic email responses and still never get actual customer service, my item, or my refund (and related S/H costs)! Maybe help your customer by "making things right," as you say above, before customers are forced to leave public reviews. Your responses to their concerns seem like you care, but this is all a refection of extremely poor customer service at an administrative level.
Response from Talis-usJul 10, 2024
First, we deeply apologize for the inconvenience and frustration you've experienced with your recent order. We understand how essential the Arcadia reptile bulb systems are for your pet, and it's unacceptable that you've had to wait so long without clear communication from us. Addressing Your Concerns Missing LED Light Kit We sincerely apologize for the delay in shipping your LED light kit. It should have been communicated more effectively. Due to unforeseen shipping delays from the UK, some products were temporarily out of stock. We regret that our responses seemed generic and unhelpful. Effective communication is a priority for us, and we realize we fell short in this instance. We are currently reviewing our customer service protocols to prevent this from happening again. Your request for a refund should have been handled promptly. We are processing your refund immediately, You will receive a confirmation email within the next 24 hours. Subscription Message We acknowledge the confusion caused by the subscription message. This was an error that shouldn't have affected your order experience. We are working to fix this issue. Making Things Right We value our customers and their feedback immensely. Your experience has highlighted areas we need to improve, and we are committed to making those changes. We appreciate your patience and understanding as we resolve this matter. Please let us know if there’s anything else we can do to assist you. Thank you for bringing this to our attention and giving us the opportunity to improve.
