The city council could do something about this if its members weren't so busy taking campaign payoffs from the real estate industry.

The one time I tried to buy something at the 3rd Avenue location two years ago, it was a nightmare. I went in and ordered a dresser in person, and I asked if I could get it within a few weeks because I had a new roommate moving in. The guy assured me it would be ready and delivered on time. I didn't anticipate a problem because I always had such a great experience with the 6th Avenue store, and they had three weeks to get me this dresser. Cut to: I never got it. I contacted the guy who I ordered it from and asked what happened, and apparently the order was never submitted. No apology, no offer to try to fix the situation in any way. He was actually nasty to me. Being the wimp I am, I let it slide, which is my fault. If other customers had the same experience I had with this location, I can see why it shut down.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5694390946037511355.post-52731196561669743582016-01-08T10:17:07.679-05:002016-01-08T10:17:07.679-05:00Damn!
