Sorry we have not filled your orders as quickly as you expected. We do advertise 15 business days to process orders (excluding weekends and holidays). We got slammed with holiday orders and were working 10 hour shifts + weekends to get all the orders out on time. I do see that our customer service has replied back to all your inquires in a timely manner.Initial Complaint

I purchased an item on 10/31/23 from the seller's website. On 11/3/23 I received an incorrect item. I immediately emailed the customer service department with photos and all the details. On 11/7/23 I received and email that they replied that they would be getting me the correct item shipped and the tracking number once it shipped and that was the last time I have heard from them. No further communications. I have emailed, submitted online requests, messaged on ********* Nothing. I purchased this item and needed it for a specific event. I just want a reply and confirmation that I am getting what I paid for. The customer service department is terrible. They won't answer the phone and there are multiple people complaining of similar situations online.Business Response

I am rejecting this response because: I should not have to provide pictures for an item I am not happy with and want to return. I said it was too small and I could not use for my intended purchase. I simply want to return it. It isnt damaged. It just is t large enough and baskets sit uneven which doesnt work what I wanted the item for.
Sincerely,

I'm sorry you are not happy with the Woven Bamboo 2 Tier Server that you received. We have no problem with you returning the basket for a refund. We just ask for photos to show if the item is defective or is shipping damages. So we know how to move forward with filing a claim. We have processed a full refund back to your original form of payment. Please know we will always make things right with you when you receive a damaged or defective item.Business Response

I ordered a chandelier that was listed on their website as 40 inches for $15.00. Order number Order Number: #***********. They listed it as $15 in error and changed the price after I completed my purchase to around $400, then they canceled my order saying it was a pricing error. The error is their fault. It was listed as $15 and I paid the $15. There are several lawsuits and case precedents for things like this in the legal system, that regardless of their error, they should honor the price listed. Yes, they corrected their error after the fact, and that effects future purchases, but for the ones that were purchased under the $15 price, it should be honored. I totally get that they don't want to lose profit, but as a customer, I am not the one who listed it as $15. Someone from their staff did.Business Response

I made an order esrly last week I believe on or around November 1st or 2nd. I received a confirmation email immediately. I have not yet received any info on the package being sent or when I should expect it to be mailed or tracking info. I've emailed them a few times and just get a response that a "ticket" is created but nobody actually responds to me. Today I tried to call their number and it goes directly to voicemail so I left a message. With all the scam sites this time Of year I'm just kind of concerned and worried I haven't at least heard something.Business Response

I made a first time purchase from their online store on May 6, 2022. When the box arrived, 3 of the 8 items were damaged and broke. I contacted the company by email and they requested the order #, SKU#'s and photos which I then provided. They asked if I wanted the items replaced and I said no, I would prefer reimbursement on my credit card, because the items had been so poorly packaged I feared it would happen again. They emailed back on May 10 that they acknowledged my request and a 'ticket' had been created. I waited until June 18, still no reimbursement, and emailed them again. then again on June 20. They replied with same story of acknowledgement and a 'ticket' being created. I emailed them again on July 27 with a very strong note that I was going to have to take measures and then again August 2, no response . I had to make an out of state trip to the ********************/********** for medical issues and was gone almost 3 wks, when I returned, still no response . I've sent 7 emails, waited 3 mths. I have to go out of state again for my daughter's wedding and would be so relieved to have this issue resolved. The order # was ***********. Damaged 3 items SKU's= 42W-73052,$36.00 and 42W73053,$76.00=$112.00 +tax. I hope you can help, it's now the principle.

On July 11, 2022, I placed an online order from Antique Farmhouse. Only this week, I finally received the bulk of the order only to open the boxes and find crushed, destroyed, damaged items due to a lack of proper packaging. I immediately snapped a few pictures of items to share with Antique Farmhouse and I communicated with Kaelin via e-mail. I requested a refund of the items and I invested my own, personal time to carefully pack up the broken items with styrofoam and bubble wrap to ship the items back to Antique Farmhouse. I have asked for the return procedure, I have requested a shipping label and offered to take the box to UPS myself, I have e-mailed more than once and I called and left a voicemail at a number I located online for Antique Farmhouse. I have not heard back from Kaelin nor from Jen despite my continuous attempts. I am going to be traveling away from home within the next few days and I will be gone most of September. I have told Antique Farmhouse this concern via a-mail more than once and need to resolve this matter before it is too late.Business Response
