I placed an order on October 10,2023, with an expected delivery date of October 19,2023. However, on October 15, I discovered that my order was still awaiting fulfillment. After contacting customer support, I learned that the item is on back order, and the new estimated delivery is early December. This came as a disappointment, especially since the item is coming from India, causing the delay.

I wish this information had been disclosed upfront, as I purchased the item as a gift for a friend. If I had known about the back order, I would have reconsidered my purchase. The customer representative acknowledged that this lack of disclosure is a common concern and apologized for the inconvenience. Feeling a bit deceived and frustrated, I've decided not to shop with Z Gallery again.

Additionally, I've tried contacting corporate offices, but am constantly being brought to the automated system with no human to direct me to the proper department. What is going on with this company?

Tip for consumers:
Apparently, the biggest complaint about the company, according to the customer service rep I spoke to, is the lack of disclosure when purchasing an item. If the item is on backorder, they don't disclose it upon purchase. The item I purchased was to arrive 9 days after I placed the order. When I saw it was still in fulfillment, I called them and was told the item was now on backorder and I won't receive it until "early December". Lack of communication and disclosure on their part.
