Coleman Furniture Charge restocking fee for items they failed to deliver on time. Cedarhurst NY

If I could give them a zero star rating I would! When we ordered our hall server buffet piece during the checkout process it stated an ETA of 2 weeks.  Other suppliers stated 10-days, but we went with Coleman for their pricing and reputation.  Unfortunately 2 weeks went by no communication.  After almost 3 weeks we get a notification that its with our local delivery partner. 

Then we wait another few days for a call from them.  They are in Chino and we are in San Diego.  They said the soonest they can deliver would be another 20 days from contact.  So now my ETA of 2 weeks went to 40 days or almost 6 weeks.  Spoke with Connie, account manager, and there was nothing they could do about the shipper that they subcontract, regardless what their website stated. 

I had explained we needed this piece to finish off our décor for TG party we had upcoming.  That is why we purchased it on 10/17 to allow plenty of time past the 2 weeks in case of delay.  So even with this misinformation, they still want to charge me a restocking fee of 15% to cover their shipping.  If you can’t honor an ETA, don’t publish it on the order form prior to checkout and completion of the sale.

  Next time I will just go to Overstock.com or another online retailer that operates their business truthfully (may cost a bit more) and honors their customer relationships.  I will pass this on to the CC company to handle.  Save your $$$ and time and google your piece and search for another retailer.
