"Hi, Ann, I'm a seller on RL now and also have another shop on another mall.  In the past, I've also used 2 other antiques/collectibles malls as well as Ebay to sell.  On all of them except Ebay, I was able to…"

"Camille,  To me, there is zero excuse for someone to not get back to you within 24 hours if you ask a question, order an item, etc.  Unless they are in the hospital.  Delays in shipping are also inexcusable.  For me, I just…"

"Dear Camille,  I just happened on this discussion and am appalled at your experience with Ruby Lane.  I've had a shop for almost 5 years and I am overjoyed that most of my customers are repeat customers.  I have never heard of…"

"I have followed the threads of this discussion and truly wish the happenings of one or two buyers were not a reflection of all of us who sell on Ruby Lane. I am in no way perfect, but do my very best to communicate with sellers expediently. I…"

"Camille - I feel bad that you've had such a bad experience with Ruby Lane.  It might be a good idea if Ruby Lane had something like an ombudsman that acts as an intermediary between buyers and sellers.  Maybe they already do.…"

"Amen!  Well said...No matter where you go, that is to a big box store, a brick and motar store or on line on a site like RL communication is the key.  It reflects how you feel about what you are doing and how important you see the customer…"

CheriShops - Admin replied to Camille's discussion Bad shopping & CS experience with Ruby Lane
"I agree Camille. If a seller is going to be absent, they need to either make sure it is noted on their shop or have someone answering messages to let their customer know that they are away and will attend to the order asap.  It is unacceptable…"

Camille replied to Camille's discussion Bad shopping & CS experience with Ruby Lane
"Hi Valerie, The point is not about the handling times but the lack of communication from the sellers. Ignoring polite and reasonable requests for information is not an effective way to secure that buyer's return. If a dealer is absent for…"
