I wont be buying from peck polymers anymore
I have spent hundreds of dollars with a2z aka peck polymers over the last 3 plus years. Today I was told my credit card was short $2.46 on an order. I asked for a discount to cover it as I have little to no extra income for anything but the basics... they said no and choose to remove an item from my order instead. I will not spend another dime on any of their products in the future.

Hmmm. Someone who no longer has any money has decided not to shop at a store?
Is the store supposed to get upset about this? It is amazing that the scootertrash (great user name, btw) had the audacity to make create this thread. Profit margins in the hobby business are razor thin. |

After 14 years in sales I can tell everyone the one way you can insure you never get a sales person to help you is to be a turd.
Flip side of the coin,,... Treat sales people with respect, and take an interest in what they need to accomplish and chances are you won't need to ask for help because it will happen automatic. Short version, "If I enjoy you as a customer than I am gonna bend over backwards to keep your/our transactions repetitious and running smooth". Stroke and be Stroked. |

I just hear you blaming other consumers and small store customer service for death of small businesses when, ironically, you are one who wants to boycott a small business. You may have a point, but the way you deal with disagreement does you no favours. And why talk about consumer mentality killing small businesses in a discussion about a small business with allegedly terrible customer service? Such businesses should die regardless of whether or not small businesses as a whole are in trouble. Accusing someone of being the worst kind of consumer that is killing small business is immaterial to this discussion and might as well just be another namecall. |

Not sure MHO will make any difference.
But today the bean counter accountants call the shots , and pretty much run the business so the proprietor can move the business forward . Its what they do and they can be pretty heartless. A better choice would have been to contact the proprietor directly . Often this is impossible as they are running the business, but its your only shot. On the other side of the coin , having next to no extra income and running on credit is a big mistake , and I speak from past experience. And as of late with all the banks , it didn't work out well for them either. What has happened is your own undoing , and its more than likely your not the only one in this situation , The company has to protect its bottom line so they can be there in the future. If they have to hand out discounts for $2.46 ,then its $3 then $5.. it adds up fast on the big picture. |

I juggled the wording you wrote a bit and I wanted to give you the benefit of the doubt but I think you should be a bit more budget conscious. Your response post is a bit confusing, you seem to have a unique perspective on things. I stumbled on this thread checking to see what was going on here becacuse I had an experience with A2Z and it was a bit out of control for something I thought was very simple and I will not buy from them anymore either. This thread will most likely vanish also as soon as A2Z deletes it |

Lack of real jobs & PAY INCREASES is destroying the buying world.
Thanks to computer programs & robots. NO company needs anyone on the payroll. DDUUUUHHHH All the companies are in the same boat INCLUDING Wall Street & the banks & car makers & house builders.............No workers clerks receptionists. WHO HAS money to buy the products..........NO ONE !! O K Drug dealers & prostitutes. The federal government is finally only giving money / grants & subsidies to the upper crust in the world. They really need to give every person a allowance. There is no other source for billions of people around the world. |

I can't believe you went to the trouble to post this childish rant. Try your little ploy with just about anyone and you will get the same answer. Most likely the person you talked to didn't have the authority or means to do what you asked. Grow up. I doubt very much that they will miss your business. I know I wouldn't |

I find your predicament no ones fault but your own. Your lack of responsibility or perhaps just simple incompetence has placed you in this position.
You claim to be tight on cash yet you continue to spend on unnecessary things like a hobby. I'll wager you continue to buy junk food, beer and cigarettes with your low funds. You claim to own a business yet criticize another business for exercising sound practices. And go so far as to blame them for your dilemma. Pray tell us what your business is so we can all avoid it? |

The rant post is 2½ years old. A2Z discontinued their model aircraft division due to having to deal with people like this.
The reincarnated Peck is not affiliated with A2Z . |

Old thread and it is missing its 2018 post.
My two dealings with Peck were outstanding. No issues at all, shipped fast, arrived in good condition. |
