Was it crucial to have them shipped the next day? Strings wouldn't go an extra day or two? Important performance?
Did it really bug you bad enough to publically disparage a fine company most of us have had great experiences with? I'm curious just what triggered this.

I have had 2 pissed off studio clients who wanted product that I ordered for 2 different recording sessions / second order was placed 7 days early and I am 2 days from NC / a earlier order I gave them 3 extra days / good people , good price, just not shipped same day as advertised / they just need not to advertise same day shipping / If a company says something I usually believe it. I came from the broadcast and music industry where we did what we said as people counted on us. I believe they are still good people who just need to change what they are advertising. I have been in contact and they agree that a lot of people are taking that verbiage serious and they are thinking of taking it down.
I also started this thread by only asking a question about delivery times until I was asked why. Last edited by bluetweed; 12-04-2017 at 06:39 PM. |

I took it up with them. See post #11. They did not respond to my genial inquiry.

SNB claims to ship-same day on every page of its site. But it doesn't ship every order same-day, so it's a false claim. This is worthy of discussion; it is not publically [sic] disparaging the company. And a company that makes false claims is not a fine company. I realize that reasonable people will disagree. You reported your good experience with SNB in post #21. Now you have returned to impugn the original poster's intent. I am curious as to what triggered this.

I forget who I ordered from a while ago, but the $30 minimum I met easily while buying a bunch of sets plus I think I didn't pay sales tax either as they don't have nexus in NJ.
I don't do this that often as my strings last a while because I don't play just one guitar every day, but for me it works. I don't remember how long it took, but the time I waited isn't sticking in my brain either as being too slow. The point is sometimes it pays to buy a bunch to get free shipping, just don't wait until you're totally out of strings.

As I read from their website FAQ's just now, it states orders are processed in 2-24 hrs., with MOST orders being shipped within 48 hrs. Maybe you didn't read that far and just ran with the OP. I went a bit farther and will concede they have Same Day Shipping prominently displayed on the site and in light of what I read and reported, they need to remove the claim. They clearly make two different claims. I'd rather not disparage a small business employer when it's not absolutely necessary. If I need strings that quickly I go get them, but that's just me. I realize that reasonable people will disagree.

They are strings. Whoodedo. They aren’t shipping life threatening body organs for emergency transplants. Buy enough that you aren’t in a panic. Strings are cheap. I have a bunch of packs just laying around my office. Third world problem.

Great news! My order has shipped after 8 days. I had ordered a special capo for a client to use on a old Martin D35 with a very fat neck and strings to do a new setup for him. I lost out on the set-up but still was able to change the recording around and not lose money their. Now with any luck we can do the songs that were originally planned and do a much needed set-up for him.
Being retired this is much needed income for me. I learned a lesson and will count on other vendors for quick shipping needs and use String and Beyond when there is no time-frame. I just hope they get rid of the same day shipping claim. anyway Christmas is coming |
