Terrible Customer Service (In-Store) Needed lighting for a company sponsored project. Walked into their Dallas store with two other friends. Viewed a great floor display for about 15 min until we stopped someone for assistance. We were told there was only one rep and we waited another 15 min until we stopped another of the 4 people that were walking around. He was extremely unresponsive when we told him what we were looking for and treated us as if he was sure we weren't going to buy anything. We were patient and asked questions about the different products but were repeatedly told "naw that's it". We settled with what we could and asked to buy three of one of the floor models we saw but after 10 min were told they were out of stock. I gave up at this point at even trying to get an alternate. All of the reps were at the counter "hanging" with customer-like people and could care less about selling anything. I have no idea how they stay in business with this kind of "unprofessional, backstreet, I'm doing you a favor" approach, especially when they seem to be in a good market with products that have demand (maybe that's the problem). The sad thing is that we weren't on a budget and would have sold up.

Junk products, lousy service I ordered about a thousand dollars worth of lighting from them, and around a fourth of the order arrived damaged. Plus, one of the products was NOT what the web site claimed - the web site called it a "96 DMX channel controller" and it was actually a 24 channel controller that you could save 96 "scenes" with. Not the same thing by any stretch of the imagination. I asked to have the damaged products replaced, but they said all they would do is send parts to make the repair. The parts they sent were for another product, and of course, did not work. I also asked for a refund on the controller since they misrepresented the product on the web site. They agreed to take the controller back, but would only give me store credit. I ended up with another controller that still does not meet my needs, but it was all they could offer. It's going up on eBay soon. The manuals that come with the products are useless. One says not to use the light in any place that is " damp or darkish." Really? I can't use the light in a place that is "darkish?" What's the point of having the light, then? These guys buy crappy, crappy Chinese-made products; they tell you whatever it takes to get you to buy them, and they don't stand behind these junky products at all. I will NEVER buy from them again, and I will actively direct people elsewhere for their stage lighting needs. In this case, you don't get what you pay for - you get LESS. Steer clear of these guys.

Dumbfounded by how poor the service was We had bought a product advertised as a hazer, expecting the typical characteristics of a haze machine. Upon it's arrival, it was an over glorified fog machine. Due to limiting circumstances, a fog machine is next to useless for what we needed it for. Upon contacting customer service to explain the situation, we were rudely told there was nothing that could be done to help our situation. The only option was to pay at 30% restocking fee, plus shipping, and have receive in-store credit. Now, why would I want more credit to a store that has treated me so poorly? Looking back, it's pretty comical how bad it was. There are a lot of great one-liners I now share with my friends that I gained from their customer service.

They should be called Cheap Broken Lights.com I ordered lights. They arrived broken. I called for a replacement. They said I have to pay the shipping. I never had a company try to charge me for shipping back a broken product. I could see if the product broke months later and before the warranty period. But these arrived broken. The girl on the phone said she knows and agrees that is isnt fair, but there was nothing she could do. I m actually affraid to even ship them because I dont trust that they will replace the broken lights. I wish I read the reviews first. Dont buy From Cheap Broken Lights. Com

shady business practices Don't trust any positive reviews on here (not that I saw any). A friend of mine got fired for refusing to write positive reviews to counteract the negative reviews from actual customers. You want better reviews? Practice better business. Listen to the reviews and fix the problems instead of trying to cover it up.
