    hey tw, i recently had some work done...i leave it at that to keep from pointing fingers and making people mad. my concern is the quality of work that was done was subpar in my opinion. i paid asking price for the work done. i know this doesnt provide a lot of info but i just wanted to see what you guys would do and if i have a right to say anything even though i will not get my money back....i have seen the same work done before and the other stuff looked awsome....my stuff not so much. i debated about not even posting but i was dissappointed when the work was completed...maybe im wrong? maybe im not? thanks for opinions....

    Someone on here? Tough to say without more info. If it was someone on here I'd send a PM and explain the problem. Maybe a partial refund or fix what was done.

    ^^ if it was a defect from the person doing whatever to the item, the buyer shouldnt be the one to try to fix the item. you paid for a product in a specific condition and you should receive it that way...shipping incidents aside. same goes for any company selling an item. if you need any support to help resolve the issue, the mods/admin are here to help resolve an issue if there is one

    Alot depends on the situation...If it's a you don't like the work sorta thing- You might be stuck dealing with whatever it takes to fix it.
    If it truely isn't done professionally...That's a whole nother deal.

    Pm a mod with details. If it is someone on here offering a service and it was done poorly, than other people need to know so they don't end up in the same situation as yourself.
