      Opus failed to fill and online order where their system indicated multiple items were in stock, they did not consult with me but went ahead and shipped me unwanted items (needed only for other items which will take months to be restocked) then billed me for unwanted items that were fulfilled and demanded I spend my resources and time to fix the order. I courteously offered to take my time and resources to send back items sent in error but was told I wouldnt be refunded for that. The customer service person Tav (spelling?) rudely escalated the conversation, repeated to me that I would be covering the order and there were no other options, prevented me from accessing a more senior staff member to find a reasonable solution. I would like a full refund on the order immediately.

      I ordered several items on December 2, 2022. Some items were deemed out of stock and were going to be sent later on. I am still waiting for a sketchbook. Reaching their sales folks is difficult at best. Emails go unanswered for weeks. Promises for a status update is now nearly 6 weeks pending. A request for a refund has gone without a response for 2 weeks. I reached out for resolution to Sales, and even sent an email to the business' owner. Still without a response. I understand that they have been busy, and that they had a warehouse move before Christmas. This does not explain routinely needing weeks to answer email. I had great hopes of being able to spend my money locally in BC, but frankly, I'm not giving these people another cent.

      Better Business Bureau:



      I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ********, and find that this resolution is satisfactory to me.

      The business finally contacted me after I advised them i’d filed a complaint with you, refunded me half the product, and has shipped the product.

      Thank you



      Sincerely,



      ******* *********
