@IDareT'sHair Guurrrlll, it was unbelievable......She still hasn't learned. She lamented in her email how she was a "small company" and mistakes can be made.....Are you kidding me???!!!! She makes more mistakes than get it right!

The last time I got some Miss Bhree Buriti Ultra Hydrating Hair Cream was when we did that swap in 2010. I thought enough time had passed to allow her to get her act together. Took a chance in July and tried to order from her. She kept messing up the invoice, so I canceled that order.

Got the email for the Nov. 10 - 11, Pre-BF, 35% off sale. Thought it was safe to order since I wouldn't be in the BF stampede....WRONG!!!!

But on a positive note: Sage, CurlMart, Myhoneychild, Oyin, Hennsooq and Darcy's had quick shipping and reasonable shipping rates. And I still sing the praises of Darcy's honoring the $12 for the 16 oz. Pumpkin seed conditioner + 25% off....How sweet!!!

I had the same issue when I ordered on 11/10. I was under the impression that since the products I ordered were being discontinued, that meant they were already made and ready to be shipped. I was SO wrong. I even told her such when I emailed her on 11/26 about whether my order would be shipped before the Black Friday orders. I got some generic email and emailed her back three days later. I then got some email about my order being during a sale so others came before me, but it was shipped the next day. That will be my first and only order from her.
 
Darcy's came yesterday, Thank You...I have to say that this vendor was NOT late in shipping, but I just did not get the timely email communication and delivery confirmation when your order is shipped. Yes she did honor the 16oz for $12

Also, I thought about posting who the vendors where that I had major issues with but I am waiting to see how they plan to handle my issues also its the 1st time I had issues with them so trying to give them the benefit of doubt... trying to do the right thing...
 
still no darcy's or shescentit. I want my damn products! I've been putting off washing my hair till they come. I think imma cry yall
 
This BF was the worst in terms of receiving all my order within a reasonable time. I'm not blaming all the vendors, but the USPS is horrible and really should be privatize.

I got my Claudie's stuff today so I'm good on everything for at least a year.

I’m really surprised by the stories involving Darcy’s Botanicals because she has always extended stellar service. However, the thought of anyone receiving dirty, mislabeled and missing products is disturbing because it’s indicative of poor quality control protocols, and possibly unhygienic work conditions. Sorry, but no one deserves that kind of BS.

Thankfully, I didn’t order anything from her line this BF/CM. I hope everyone is able to get their issues resolved in a satisfactory manner.

Wait the dirty unlabeled products didn't come from DB right? I thought they came from someone else and PP didn't state the vendor, but she was still waiting on DB products to arrive.
 
Cc's naturals came in yesterday. Got all my bf hauls, will definitely be skipping some vendors next Black Friday sales.

That was my understanding as well.

I can't see Darcy's Botanicals doing this.

You read it correctly..... dirty and unlabeled products did NOT come from DB, DB stuff alwasy comes very clean awesome presentation, bottles, jars filled to the prim....
 
I really don't get it with these companies. I would rather my orders be late and have all your items correct then have a bunch of people helping me that don't know what they are doing and have everything wrong. man I wish I had gone in the hair product business. Maybe she can turn her business over to me lol. I check everything before it is mailed out and I double check the invoices. that is really crazy. don't have a sale if you can not handle the business.
 
Well I got my items from Hariveda.com and I love them. I mean I ordered my whipped creme but this time I wanted to try the whipped cloud so I ordered 2 of them and I didn't know it was for thick course hair. I love it anyway and it will last me a long time because I only can use a tiny bit on my hair.
 
I contacted Jorien of SD about her shipping schedule. She promptly emailed me back and let me know all orders should be shipped by December 20th. I still don't like the wait but I appreciate being giving a clear time frame and a vendor who I can reach. It makes me feel more comfortable.
 
The wait is ovaahhh! DB came today, I was nervous to open the package because the PO labeled it 'received in damaged condition'...my products are fine though.
 
We all must admit: Competition was FIERCE this Black Friday. :lol:

Err on-line vendor and they mama was offering huge/above average discounts. *cough* well...not all.:look:

Okay, but most.:lol:

So, I'm wondering if that's why all the mistakes? They weren't use/ready for the attack of the PJ's.:blush:....:nono:

We literally shut down Black Friday/Cyber Monday. And when you factor in NC, BHM and all the specialty blogs and hair sites.......I'm seeing how this year was a problem.:spinning:

They just weren't ready.:drunk:

We tore up some stuff this Black Friday!:lick:

True True.... I wanna say more on this but I shall hold my peace, I will say I am still waiting for stuff that was NOT shipped, I have 2 vendors that seem to NOT respond back to my emails in about 3 days now, I have a few pictures of products that was rec'd that had huge holes in them, one product one whole side of the product is missing.. I am like so so mad.. They made NO NO mistake in taking my order and my money.... so much for holding my peace..lol
 
SheScentIt came in yesterday. Sigh. First and last Black Friday for Haircare. I'll just order through the year.

Don't be surprised if I'm up in here next year. But right now I'm just a little peeved that I ordered 11.23 and got the last of my orders 12.10.
 
@Imoan

I know Girl. I'm sure they got real sloppy tryna' get things out. SMH:perplexed

I remember early on when HQS said she had some kids helping her fill orders.... so um..yeah..you know how that went.:nono:.....:blush:....:ohwell:

Anyway, I'm sure they had: ALL Hands on Deck. I can only imagine.:look:

And I know from my own little Sales here & there, that Post Office ain't no joke either.:rolleyes:

They should be forecasting what their Big Sellers are and have most of it made in advance.

They should spend October buying supplies and making products. Very little Sales are on Labor Day or Halloween.

No, those products were not shipped from DB and I didn’t mean for my post to imply that they did. Just commenting on my surprise at the reports of poor service from DB along with my skin crawling at the thought of dirty and mislabeled products.
