Hello, Order #******* Date Placed: October 05, 2023 Product: Dura Lock Rubber Tiles (Blue Gray - 10%)Quantity: 45 tile(s)This dispute is because the company provided an incorrect number of tiles. I received 9 extra corner pieces as opposed to the expected 4 corners, meaning I did not have the required number of tiles to fill in the floor space. I have attempted to contact the company via phone, email, and online chat within the original 30-day guarantee period, but to no avail. I did eventually get a hold of an email ******************************************** who requested photo evidence of the extra tiles, which I provided.Because it has taken so long to get any resolution, I placed a NEW order with the tiles that I needed (Order #******* Date Placed: October 31, 2023). However, I have yet to receive the partial refund from the original order. Their phone number rarely connects to a human. Their call back function never works and I do not receive a call. Their online chat just redirects to a phone number to call. Their text function just ends up with a generic "we will call you later" response. While I am grateful that ****************************************** was the only person to email me, I have yet to hear back on the status of my partial refund. From my original order date of Oct 5 to today December 4, it is now 2 months since the transaction. The business has not tried to resolve this problem.It is now well past the 30-day window, but I would like a refund for the incorrect 9 extra pieces of corner tiles but they have not helped me do so. The rest of the order is fine since I have already installed the floor pieces.ThanksBusiness Response

*******, I'm sorry to hear about the frustrating experience you've had with the order and the challenges in reaching customer support. It's certainly not the kind of service one expects when making a purchase. I have reviewed the order notes and I have requested your refund for the 9 tiles back to your account + tax and shipping cost. Please allow 3 days to see the refund back to your account.Initial Complaint

Order# ******* Order date Sept 2, 2023, Affirm loan processed on Sept 5. Product originally was scheduled to ship on Oct 23 and was set up to install on Oct 25. Product was shipped on Oct 12th but was first examined on Oct 24th.First call was made on 10/25/2023. After opening pallets, I immediately noticed that colors were inconsistent. I stopped installation to call vendor. It took me several attempts to get a phone call through but I did get through and talked to ********. She told me to get a count of the colors and email pictures. After further examination of the floor, I discovered it was not only the colors that were inconsistent but also the thickness and the gaps in the interlocking tabs. I took pictures. Out of 198 tiles only 37 were the right color.I have no idea how many dye lots were used to fill my order but I would say at least 4 or 5.I sent email on Oct 26, explaining the safety issues of the different thicknesses, I would no longer be able to install flooring. The flooring was to be installed in a building for my son, **** to train service dogs. My son had a brain tumor removed in 2007. He had a stroke and was left with balance issues, fine motor skill challenges and walks with a gait. Uneven surfaces are a hazard for him.I did not receive a reply. Oct 30-Nov 2 made several attempts to call. I left messages, was placed in call back queues, set up call appts, none of which were answered. I finally was able to call new sales and was placed on hold for ********. She said she would send message to team for review. On Nov 6 I received an email from her thanking me for my patience, the photos were being reviewed & she would be in touch by the end of the day or next.Nov8 sent email checking on updates-no response Nov9 I left 1 star ****** review Nov10 received response from review & was assured of a resolution Nov13 was sent a link of one other flooring option, I asked for sample Nov14 requested refund&return Still no responseBusiness Response

On 10/20/23 we ordered 3 different color tiles. When we received the package there where 28 boxes instead of the 33 that was supposed to be, all the red colored ones where missing plus black ones, not to even mention some where damaged . After spending weeks with no one answering I finally got in contact with someone that put me on wait indefinitely. The level of unprofessional this company operates is unmatched.Business Response

Good morning *****, I do apologize that you did not receive all of the tiles you ordered. I see that one of our customer service agents has requested the replacement order for you to be released, but that there is a credit card dispute open as well on Order #: *******. We are more than happy to release the order for you so it can ship soon, inorder for us to be able to move forward though we need to clear up the CC dispute first. May I ask if you can mark the dispute as resolved so we can release Order #: ******* for 124 Black Indoor Court Tiles - 12" x 12" Tiles and 168 Victory Red Indoor Court Tiles - 12" x 12" Tiles. Please reach out to ***************************************** with an update so the replacement can be released to you ASAP. Thank you.Initial Complaint

Ordered Rosco Adagio Rolls (Black) on 10/23/2023 as part of order #******* ($992.78 total)Quantity: 2 roll(s) ****' x 7'Total: $366.80 ($183.40 each)Rolls were delivered on 10/28/2023. But, one roll was only 80'' long the other 40'' long (each should have been 84'' long). It is as if they took a 10' long roll and split it into the two pieces and shipped it to me... I have since: Emailed about the issue with no response. Called the customer service line and waited over 20 minutes twice only to be told I cannot be served at that time. Left both online and phone messages for someone to call me back and have not heard back from the company.Business Response

On September 13th, 2023 I placed an order through Flooring **** for 5 boxes of Mannington ****************************** (Max073). I was attempting to purchase the same flooring that was originally installed in my home 3 years ago. When I received the flooring, I attempted to install it and immediately noticed a significant difference between the two products. The new flooring has a smooth finish and our original flooring has a textured finish. I then attempted to call Flooring **** and was on hold for around 20 minutes and never spoke with anyone. This was on Friday October 6th. On Monday, October 9th, my wife attempted to contact Flooring **** again and when she finally spoke with someone, she was told that as long as we received what we ordered, we would be responsible for the return shipping costs which would be over 300 additional dollars. I said that this was not acceptable and this was not our fault. I supplied them with pictures of the existing along with what the new product was. Both have the same part number yet have a different finish. They confirmed with the manufacturer that they had changed the country where this product was manufactured from ***** to ***************** and in the process of doing this, the product had changed. I feel as a consumer, there is no way for me to have known this and for that reason, the return shipping should not be my responsibility. If as a company you are not willing to make things right with a customer when something like this happens then you should not sell products online and should limit your business to in-store local purchases only. Shipping costs are part of doing online business. In addition to this, Flooring **** is nearly impossible to contact over the phone and has several days between responses through email. ****** was my point of contact.Business Response

We contacted ********** directly and advised them of the issue with the planks that were purchased with Inc stores not matching what the customer pirchased elsewhere. We are not sure where the customers previous order was purchased from but we can confirm it was not through Inc Stores, nor was an order shipped directly to this customer from Mannington previosuly. ********** has stated that his purchase from another vendor may have been a product that was made in ***** and not in the *** as they have another Manufacturing plant in *****. They would have the same name & what not, but they are not always the exact same as what is manufactured in the US. We understand the customer is wanting to return his order, but this would be considered a standard return and we would need to request an RMA from Mannington directly as they provide us with that number. The customer would be responsible for the return shipping cost back to the Manufacturer **********. As stated previously we can not be held responsible for the product not matching what the customer purchased previosuly from another vendor. If both orders had been purchased through Inc Stores, we would be more than happy to advise ********** to return the product and reship the correct product for the customer or issue him a refund, Unfortunately we can not do so in this case, since we are not aware of where his previous order was purchased from. The customer did speak with one of our agents who did advise him of this information as well, that ********** produces materials in ***** as well as the US. We apologize for the inconvenience, we do have a 30 day Money back guarantee on non custom cut orders and so if the customer wishes to continue with a return we are more than happy to request an RMA for them.Initial Complaint

Like pulling (your own) teeth trying to find an employee there willing to assist you with *their* screw-up.I received stair risers, but not stair tread from a single order with a single tracking number. Needless to say what I received was less than 20% of what I paid for. Despite this, I learned after repeated calls to them that the missing product had been discontinued months ago. Here it is instructive to describe said calls: you're routinely informed that they're experiencing high call volume, and that the expected wait time is 5 minutes. This expected wait time never varies, and is NEVER correct. Expect more like 30 minutes of repeated attempts to bludgeon you into dealing with a machine rather than an actual human. As often as not this *************************************** a machine telling you that 'we're sorry, it's not possible to speak with somebody at this time. Please try again later'. As maddening as this is, more maddening still is the de rigueur 'your call is VERY important to us' bald-faced-lie-to-your-face.On the 5th attempt I managed to get a reasonably attentive employee -- from whom I learned of the product discontinuation. I picture in my mind that individual responsible to fulfilling the order learning that there was no product to ship, and deciding to only send the risers -- and I just don't get it. Well, I do get it, but I don't like what it says about that individual or the company who would tolerate that level of laziness.You'd think an email at the least, or a phone call advising the customer would be in order, but no. As of this writing I'm FULLY expecting to have to subject myself to more wasted-time in their infernal phone holding pattern in an attempt to chase down a refund that doesn't begin to compensate for this frustration.Business Response

In my search for coin flooring I found garage flooring via a ****** search. Their pricing was competitive and with free shipping as most other sellers and they also offered PRICE MATCHING. I was ready to order but not sure on colors so a rep recommended to send free samples which I did online around Oct 4th. I received the samples as well as several discount codes ranging from 25% to 28% off my order despite this product not being eligible for promotions. I went to place my order and the 2 - 7.5' x 17' rolls I initially saw at $156.99 per roll were now $199.99 per roll. I then tried to utilize the discount codes and none of them worked. At this point I contacted customer service and proceeded to deal with ***** who was very helpful over the next few days. Initially I was told that the price I saw never existed nor did they raise pricing in that time. At which point it looked as though I was making up the price. Luckily I had taken a screen grab of the item at the time I ordered the samples so I could order once I figured out which color.I then submitted the pics to customer service for them to do a price match. After several days of getting the run around from management and IT, I was ultimately told that they would not honor the price NOR the price match guarantee they offer online...... Despite offering the same material on their website for as low as $1.60sf, the $1.85sf I was requesting was apparently too much of a loss for them.Its obvious from this interaction, that Garage Flooring **** is making false claims on their website and involved in some type of bait and switch scheme with their pricing......Business Response

Good afternoon ****, I am more than happy to look into the discount code not applying for you. May I please ask for an order number so I may assist further?Customer Answer
Date: 10/24/2023
If you had bothered to either read the statement or view the attachments you could have answered your own questions. 1) Based on the attachments we're clearly discussing Nitro material so you obviously know there are no discounts. Which begs the question why you'd send multiple non working discount codes for a product you don't apparently discount. 2) As stated in the complaint, I wasn't able to place an order because I couldn't get back to the ORIGINAL price that are in the screen grabs. Further, the customer service rep confirmed with MGT and IT that there was no price increase in the 3 days between seeing it and receiving my color samples. 3) So that leaves the price match that you were unwilling to do for your OWN pricing......Business Response

****, I contacted our sales department to assist you with applying a discount code to an order. I was able to locate a Quote ID which is what I had been asking for in the first communication, That is Quote ID ******* for 2 Midnight Black Coin Nitro Rolls - 5' x 17' - Standard grade Can you let me know what the discount code was for as I do not have that information on my end. I can attempt to add the code manually to assist you but ask that you please help me as well. Thank you.Customer Answer
Date: 11/07/2023
Hello:
I wasn't even aware of a quote number. To reiterate, I was never seeking a discount. I was merely seeking the material at the price that was initially shown to me when I went to your website. The discount code was offered by you as a result of receiving the sample material. Then the your company refused to both PRICE MATCH your own pricing or accept either of the discount codes. Though ironically, when I misplaced the screen print MGT said they would need that to match pricing but then when I found it they refused to do so.
That said, I only sought to use the discount codes to get back to the original pricing I screen printed. ******* worked. One of the codes was "THANKYOU" for 30% and the other was for 28% but I don't recall what it was.
Thanks

We ordered 88 H3131373731363237**33H tiles and they were delivered on Aug 11th (order *******). An installation was attempted (by people we hired) on Aug 14th and 57 of the tiles were fine and 31 were cut incorrectly and were 1/8" shorter than the 57 that we**;ve placed down and are in use. On August 16th I called customer service to explain the situation. I spoke with ******************************* and she asked me to send her pictures. I emailed her pictures proving the situation. I expected a quick turnaround as the original order only took two days to get to me. I emailed her on August 17th asking for an update. Her response was, "I have reached out to the manufacturer and will provide you with an update by the end of the day today." I have not heard back from her since, despite my replying to the email twice. I**;ve called customer service 3 or 4 times only to be told each time that, "We**;ve contacted manufacturing and they**;re not getting back to us." One would expect something to the effect of, "We contacted manufacturing and they didn**;t get back to us and I**;m going to get my manager right now to make sure they answer me." Instead, I**;ve had 4 people give me that excuse as if that**;s a legitimate excuse. If I were to go online and order a new set, I**;d have it in ***** hours and yet, here I am, 8 days later, with nothing.Business Response

Cannot get anyone on the phone. Have waited on hold for over ten hours over the last week. Product was in stock and supposed to ship in three days. I was charged $1500. Several days after, it now shows out of stock. Instead they shipped two edge pieces I DO NOT NEED without the actual flooring. Weve left messages, used the text option. The one time we did get someone on the phone, they confirmed the product was available in TN, but the call was disconnected. We are about to charge the credit card back with our bank. This is absurd.Business Response
