    PUBLIC APOLOGY: I'll be the first to admit it; I dropped the ball!

    I was an idiot and offered discount design/print packages for Internext. Although 95% of the orders were completed and delivered on time, the 5% that didn't make it REALLY PISS ME OFF!!!

    I want to send out a public apology to those who didn't receive their cards in time or the ones who had shipping errors. I will no longer be offering discounted design/print since my prices are already extremely low as-is.

    After aging 10 years and growing grey because of all the undue stress, I cannot accept super, extreme, order-2-days before the conference rush jobs. If you give me a week I can work miracles. My problem is that I didn't want to turn anyone down and ended up fucking myself in the process.

    I have worked out the issues with the 5% and I hope this doesnt portray how I do business. There are tons of people out there that know I do good business when I have the proper timeline to work with.

    Thanks for your understanding and this will not happen again!

        Can't wait to see how our cards came out. Thankfully we weren't in a rush, so no worries.

            The cards look awesome and it was a great deal... even with the $25 cab ride to the airport to pick them up.

                Why people wait to place orders 2 days before a convention always blows my mind...

                I get a box of 1000 and when that gets to 50% gone, I order another box to have here on hand.

                    This should DEFINITELY be taken into consideration. Anyone who waits until the last week, day or minute is the actual problem.

                          My biggest pet peeve is people not taking responsibility for their actions, so it's good to see someone who will.

                          I don't mind people making mistakes, it's those that make excuses about it or don't learn from it that will never get my business or my referrals.

                          As this thread goes to show, someone who'll step up and admit to making a mistake, is gonna receive a LOT more business than they'll ever lose.

                          Props to you

                                      It's funny how you are apologizing for %5 when lots of companies drop %10 and think it's fine. You give a good product and once they are out of your hands that's not your problem...

                                        Can not blame yourself when people expect you to complete an order within a couple of days - Only ever hear great stuff about you - This thread totally backs that up.

                                                  I want to send out a public apology to those who didn't receive their cards in time or the ones who had shipping errors. I will no longer be offering discounted design/print since my prices are already extremely low as-is.

                                                  After aging 10 years and growing grey because of all the undue stress, I cannot accept super, extreme, order-2-days before the conference rush jobs. If you give me a week I can work miracles. My problem is that I didn't want to turn anyone down and ended up fucking myself in the process.

                                                  I have worked out the issues with the 5% and I hope this doesnt portray how I do business. There are tons of people out there that know I do good business when I have the proper timeline to work with.

                                                  Thanks for your understanding and this will not happen again!
