About Me

How does someone write about themselves, well here goes. I am a bohemian preppy (figure that one out). I love my labels, but love driving my Porche and riding a Harley if given the chance. Working with my hands is one of my favorite things to do, but my job is professional so I don't get to do that often enough.

Interests

music, running, reading mysteries, studying politics.

I have had Vivint for several years and I keep telling myself I am going with someone else, but I continue staying. They have problems with contacts, you give them the correct contacts, and they will end up calling an old contact.
They are sometimes quite slow but most of the time they are pretty quick. I think some of their customer service reps are in foreign countries now because some are hard to understand.
Overall, they are a good company but expensive

Fox news is one of the best news sources online and television. They are honest and try to get to the bottom of the story.

I bid on a painting that had a shipping charge of approximately $21, but once I won the picture, the shipping charges suddenly went up to $156.
In their defence, they do have on the website their shipping charges can go up or down 10%, but that is 640%.
They also advertize items as paintings when they're prints. I have bought three (I thought) were paintings, but they turned out to be prints.
It is false adverstizing and they should be held accountable. If they were selling their merchandise on eBay or Etsy, they'd be required to advertise merchandise accurately instead of falsely advertising so they'll hopefully fetch a higher bid.
They are the worst, and they refuse to allow me to cancel my order.
Please think before you purchase anything from these people.

  • Brooks Brothers

Brooks Brothers has some of the best quality, and their sales are just wonderful. They have the best suits for men...

  • Wayfair UK

Wayfair has everything, I love to look for great deals, and the quality of everything I've bought so far is great.

  • eBay

6/23/16

I enjoy buying on eBay because you can find things you sometimes can't find elsewhere, but they treat their sellers horribly. And they're not that great at customer service, I had a return and the seller didnt' want to honor my wishes because the mdse. Arrived damaged. EBay finally made her honor my wishes and refund me once I returned a broken item to her. I still ended up paying the shipping for the return eve though the mdse. Was damaged.
However, she was the only seller I've had problems with and eBay needs to leave sellers an opportunity to leave feedback for the customer/buyer.
It's gotten easier to find things on Amazon and Etsy than eBay because on both of those sites especially Etsy you can communicate with the seller without Etsy looking over your shoulder.
EBay doesn't allow you to communicate with a seller unless it's strictly through them, and it infuriates me. I once had someone I bought mdse. From and she (seller) also was a painter. I just accidentally discovered it by telling her I was using frames she was selling me for some of my great, great aunt's drawings. So I found out she was a painter, and I wanted to see some pictures of her work. Well eBay would not allow us to exchange emails so I could view some of her work. The seller didn't want to list her work on eBay and so she had no way of shwing me the paintings.

  • Cole Haan

I love this store's quality, my mom used to buy all my shoes from Cole Hann when I was little and I still do. They have some of the best quality and if you keep an eye on their website they have more sales than in their stores.

  • Laffalot.co.uk

I laugh sometimes until I cry watching British comedy the only thing is they don't have enough new shows. I grow tired of watching reruns.

  • iTunes

6/23/16

I like iTurnes, but their prices are a bit high. However, it's easy to download music from their site.

  • Amazon

6/23/16

I buy all sorts of things from Amazon, and almost always the prices are lower than any other online shopping site.
They're great about vintage merchandise too, and their prices are usually better than eBay.

  • FOX News Go

I like Fox News because they are fair and seem to care about how and what they report.

QVC

QVC has the best customer service, you'll have no problems with returns if necessary. They're wonderful about getting your merchandise to you in a timely manner.

  • J. Crew

I love Jcrew, and their customer service is great + if a return is needed they're more than willing to accommodate you anyway possible.

  • Banana Republic

6/23/16

I love shopping at Banana Republic, they're clothes are some of the best. Being one who's really into labels I have to write that Banana Republic is a great value for great quality.

  • Ralph Lauren

6/23/16

Polo Ralph Lauren is great and being one who loves labels I have to say buying online is the best. They're always having sales online that aren't necessarily in the stores.
There is one thing that I have had to learn now that I am 40 (years old) my body's shape has changed a bit (still fit) but I can no longer wear the thinnest size anymore. I prefer their custom size and they don't always have the custom size in all the lines I prefer.

HSN

I love HSN, they have great products and I love the partial payment plan they offer on so many items. The partial payments are offered interest free and they're more than willing to accept returns if necessary.

  • SkinCareRx

Honestly, I don't know the quality of the products because the order I received a jar was broken, and the other item outdated, I tried and tried returning it. However, the company wasn't very helpful. Michelle, Amy, and Shelby continued emailing me something called a smart label. Well, I have never heard of a smart label, so I questioned them.
The information given to me was it's a label in an email you print and stick it to the box for a return.
I explained I do not have any mailing labels, and I don't think it's fair I have to buy them just to return damaged/outdated merchandise. Someone by the name of Amy told me to go to my post office and download it on the postal website, and they'd make me a label. Once the label is made by the USPS, the merchandise can be mailed for an exchange or return.
I took the merchandise to the post office with my smartphone and told the clerk what I needed she had no idea how I could download an email/smart label from my phone to their website.
Therefore, I was unable to return the order. I have been doing business with SKincarerx for years and have 'NEVER' been treated this way.
