ITA. But I also plan to have this dryer for years and the $55 difference if I keep it for 5 years is only $10.10/year. So I always say, buy what you really prefer if you are going to keep it for some years and amortize the costs. Years ago I bought a Donna Karan blazer for like $600 and I wore it for at least 8 years all the time. Totally worth it IMO.

ITA! I believe that if I want something, cost doesn't matter. If I have the money to get it, I'm getting it. I work hard and deserve it. You should never cheat yourself. So if she bought it on looks alone, that's fine, because that's what she wanted and she deserves it!:yep:

Lady Z, let us know how your first Pibbs experience was!!

PIBBS Guy told me that there are china models out there, that are in fact bootlegg. He gets calls all the time, and nothing he can do about it.

I have found bootlegg products in my BSS, all they way down to black market contact lenses and Monistat 3 (those big hard pill looking things that u insert in the vagina) they have a nerve to have them sitting in a clear bucket on the counter....$1.29 each!

Mona Lisa brought hers from a BSS store. I hope she did not get a bootlegg.:nono:
 
Re: PIBBS DEAL...READY, SET, GO!!

I agree - I work hard for every darn cent I earn. If I see something I want, if I don't have all the funds right then and there, then you bests believe I will save until I get it. I was about pay $349 for the 514 until I saw this post. It didn't matter how much it cost, I was determined to have one.

Now my dream has become a reality.

What is the ROI for a PIBB?

Check out Macherieamour's blog (www.Healthytextures.com). She has a discussion/FAQs on Pibbs and how/why it is a good investment.

ETA: At the end of the day, it's just a personal choice, I'm sure there's no official ROI (return on investment). I still plan to visit the salon because I enjoy having someone else deal with my hair sometimes but also need/use/want a dryer for when I DYI.

Darn, I am so sorry to hear that. I think they do that in while the package is in transit. The boxes are marked fragile, but one side of my box- the one that the hood part is in was mashed in on one side. I think they throw those boxes around. I checked the hood part only so far. It seems to be okay and the flip part works well, I haven't put it together yet though.

I suggest, along with contacting Tony A., also contact the post office and let them know the condition your hood and box came in, that way they'll know to be careful- I remember you said it was slightly opened. I hope this is quickly resolved for you.

The store is closed it closes at 6:00 p.m. I also tried calling and got no answer. I went to there website and also sent Tony an email. I hope to get this resolved soon. I'm so disappointed. It looks as though someone kicked the box and cracked the hood completely - as for lifting it that's out of the question. The second box which was partially open only contains the base which looks to be okay - I don't know if I'm suppose to have screws or anything - if so I don't see them - just the pack with the directions in it. Also doesn't look like it was packaged well - it only had a small piece of bubble plastic around not fully protected - and the hood itself was in a plastic bag. UPS delivered it.

It'll work out very soon. Just start your calls first thing tomorrow morning. Don't even wait for him to email you back, call him in the morning and leave 7 million messages about the condition of your dryer- the squeeky wheel always gets the oil. Question, because I haven't opened the box with the base yet- did he include a receipt?? I didn't see one in the hood box.

I just got off the phone with UPS as well - being as though they did the damage. I submitted a claim with them - they will call me tomorrow to arrange an inspection of the boxes and then contact Imperial Sales and they better pay for shipping it back.

As for a receipt, no I didn't see one. Were there any parts in the box with the base, i.e. screws or anything.

PISSED OFF ... I will call Tony bright an early in the morning.
 
Re: PIBBS DEAL...READY, SET, GO!!

I opened the base box and nope, no screws or receipt either. All that's in there is the part w/ the wheels, the stick, the black plastic thingy to put onto the stick and a booklet and hairnet. I'm going to try to put it together tomorrow, to see if the screws are needed or if they might be in the stick part already. I like proof of purchase though... I want a receipt.

I with you on that - I want a receipt as well - keep the receipt to your MO and if you sent certified mail - keep that receipt as well - I got the green portion of my card back today as well. Gosh, I'm really mad, now I probably won't get another one until next week sometime.

I guess you would call the part that's cracked on mine the "visor" it's the clear portion of the hood - a piece is completely cracked off - it was laying in the inside the hood.
 
Re: PIBBS DEAL...READY, SET, GO!!

I would have had milky beauty(:grin::lachen:) TODAY, but Tony couldn't read my apt # so he called me this morning so we could verify the info. He says I'll have it by tomorrow. So I guess one more day wont hurt :wallbash:

I pm'ed you and I feel your pain :sad: but we'll work it out. If Tony or the UPS folks try to act funny, I'm sure everyone in the thread will be ready to :whip: somebody.

Yes, I think a receipt is needed. I wonder of Tony could get people their receipts.

I believe it also has a warranty on it, right? Isn't there usually a requirement for the receipt to prove the date of purchase for the warranty?

Yes, in order for the warranty to be effective you need to submit original proof of purchase? Something we did not get. All we have is the MO receipts and I have my certified mail receipt.

I think receipts are needed - this is no small purchase - it's an investment.

So I assume you don't have to sign for it. UPS just leaves it?

I had it shipped to my mom's house because she's retired and home most of the day. I'm not sure if she had to sign for it or not. I heard it comes by UPS though.
 
Re: PIBBS DEAL...READY, SET, GO!!

Okay, regarding the screw thing. I couldn't wait until today, so I put it together last night and used it too!!! *singing* I'm in love with a dryer! LOL Anyway, only 1 screw is needed to put it together, that screw is already in the bottom of the stand stick thingy. It's very easy to put it together too. I'm about to post a thread about my experience of having my Pibbs cherry popped! :grin:
 
Re: PIBBS DEAL...READY, SET, GO!!

i think ya'll should add a countdown timer to this thread to remind us pibb-less folk that we need to get our paper up!! lol . i get distracted easily so i'll have the money one day , and the next its gone lol
 
Re: PIBBS DEAL...READY, SET, GO!!

MtAiryHoney,

I'm glad you are enjoying life with Pibbs. Can't wait to read the thread.

Re: PIBBS DEAL...READY, SET, GO!!

As you all know, late yesterday I was losing my mind becuz my Pibbs arrived and the visor was cracked. I was historical and very upset.

Today, I'm feeling a whole lot better. I spoke with our friend Tony who was very understanding and is replacing my broken visor. He said that they do break but not very often - he said you have to learn how to use them. In my case, the UPS people didn't take care in handling my dryer and therefore cracked my visor - actually it came off it was in two pieces. Tony explained he has extras and that it's very easy to put on. Tony is a really nice guy and said if I continue to have a problem once I get my new visor he will replace whole unit. He gave me that option in the beginning as well.

So, today is looking much brighter. Maybe I'll get to use Black Beauty this weekend after all. :blush:
 
Re: PIBBS DEAL...READY, SET, GO!!

Also, the pibbs 514 is 1100 watts, it says it on the back of the hood. I remember someone saying that imperial sales' site says two different watts for both, so it's probably whatever the highest watts are for the 512 instead of 970.
 
Re: PIBBS DEAL...READY, SET, GO!!

I'm putting my money order in the mail tomorrow!

You ladies sent it certified right? How long did it take to get there?
 
Re: PIBBS DEAL...READY, SET, GO!!

I sent mine on Saturday 1/5 and Monday 1/7 delivered at 1:50 p.m. and I got my dryer on Wednesday 1/9. Tony is really fast.

Did you ask him about a receipt for the dryer?
