GBGreat purchasing experience but communication seems poor I ordered 2 printers 7 days ago and have not received a shipping notification. Unlike other online retail operations, I feel in the dark about my order. Not purchasing with this company before, and never heard about them before, I'm beginning to be skeptical about my buying experience. Even when I order items from China, I at least get a notification that the order is processing. I hope this company proves me wrong. The only corispondance I've received was a link to this survey, so as they asked; I'm leaving a review. I'm not happy that my item hasn't shipped in 7 days and I'm not happy with zero communication about my order. The buying experience was pleasant though.

GBLittle Accountability & Insufficient Order Status Communication The product information when you order is not always accurate. Sometimes orders ship directly from manufacturers, but there is no way for a customer to know that before you place an order. In fact, even when the order is marked in stock, it was my experience that in can actually be out of stock, and not ship in the originally-specified 1-2 days. When confronted about this discrepancy after not receiving an order for weeks, there was no accountability, ownership, or acknowledgement of the oversight. Just a flippant "your choices are to wait for the shipment (couldn't even offer an ETA), or cancel. What do you want to do?" Subsequent conversations with the owner were professional and civil, but they still denied that the product was ever marked in-stock to begin with, despite my specific experience to the contrary. Even if an item is out of stock (and you somehow miss that during ordering, or it is incorrectly marked during checkout) there is no order-specific notification or email to inform the customer "hey, your specific order was out of stock, be aware that delayed shipping will apply to your order." You're left to rely on a canned, generic, applies-to-any-and-all-orders message of "any out of stock order, if placed, may require additional time to ship." How this strategy is viewed as sufficient and appropriate customer communication with regards to order status is rather baffling, especially given the otherwise diligent communication by management after a customer service issue is brought up. I eventually received my order, and management was accommodating once this all became an issue, but they still seem to want to standby their existing system and order notifications that got them needlessly in this position to begin with, so I can't in good faith recommend ordering through this vendor if you are absolutely depending on items within a certain deadline.

GBRerquesting accolades is all I've heard since placing my order ... Umm, have you shipped the items that I ordered? Did you combine them to reduce the shipping cost? I could share an experience if I had one to share. I am completely in the dark. Have you processed my order? Has it shipped? Is there a tracking number? Now, you're making me nervous ... -Robert

GBProblems Solved Review Update: I previously wrote "We ordered a barcode program exactly one week ago. We already have the software. All we need is the activation code. You can't tell me that it takes an entire week to get an activation code and email it to us. If I waited a week to send products out to my customers I wouldn't have any left." Since then, the customer service here has been exceptional. The delay in shipping was due to the software "manufacturer" not RJL. And the guys at RJL went above and beyond to get the info we needed. The mark of a great company is not whether mistakes are made, but how they are handled. In this instance, I could not have asked for more. Way to win my loyalty!
