If I refuse a grizzly shipment, will they blacklist me?
I ordered a grizzly compessor, but hf is cheaper. grizzly says they
can't cancel the shipment...I'll have to refuse delivery and I won't be charged for shipping. I hate to do this, but 100 bucks is a 100 bucks. Any reason to stick with the grizzly over hf? What to do. |

How about being an honorable person and sticking to your deal- If you find one cheaper than HF are you going to cancel that order and stick them with all the freight too?

Grizzly is a lot better if you have a problem or if you need a part.
Their quality might be a bit better. For sure the paint job will be. - GWE benwoodward.com wrote: I ordered a grizzly compessor, but hf is cheaper. grizzly says they can't cancel the shipment...I'll have to refuse delivery and I won't be charged for shipping.

Apart from it being outright stinky to order something and refuse the
shipment because you did your comparison shopping too late, I would stay away from HF compressors if they were mail order. I bought one at a local branch and had to bring it back because the switch was bad. Next one was also bad, as was the next one. Three in a row, all new. The guy at the counter tells me they had about as many in back that were returned as they had new stock, several dozen. I didn't try for a fourth. They may have improved the QC since, but this was only last year. StaticsJason "benwoodward.com" wrote in message om...

I would think that the Grizzly would be a better machine and the warrantee and dealer backup would be better. Lane |

Gizzly is a great co. to deal with, and imho, so is HF. do you really know that the products are the same? does the local sales tax offset some of the price difference? whatever, you have to live w/ your own conscience, don't "panic" and make an ass out of yourself. good luck, --Loren |

No, but they claim they can't cancel the order 5-1/2 hours later.
That's a little hard to believe. Something doesn't seem right here. I get the feeling they don't -want- to cancel the order and that's rubbing me the wrong way. But you're right, I would feel cheesy sticking them with the freight. 6 of one... |

Some companies like Amazon, Newegg and Crucial will allow you to refuse
orders that have already been shipped and will then give you a full refund when you do this. But I don't know Grizzly's policy. They may decide to charge you full shipping, plus their normal 15% return fee. You might want to find out what their policy is. |

Have you thought asking for a discount to match the HF you have found?
Tell them what you have found at a much better price. If they will match the price or come close you won't refuse shipment. It is worth the effort to ask. Oh, BTW, ANY company that sells mail order has the cost of "refused shipments" built into the price structure. They're not getting screwed.

So your saying that each and every "mail order" part from nuts to bolts that you and every other builder of homebuilt aircraft buys (by mail order) has an extra what - ten to fifteen percent built into the purchase price in case someone like you wants to return it. I guess you have never heard of a restocking fee. From YOUR SIG file Publishing interesting material on all aspects of alternative engines and homebuilt aircraft.

Don't forget that if you paid with a credit card, then they already paid a
non-refundable fee to the credit card company as soon as you placed the order- they also pay the same fee when they credit your account- this amounts to about 2.5% of the purchase price on each transaction. So if the compressor was 500.00, they would end up paying out 5% ( 25.00 ) in fees for your 5 1/2 hours of indecision- not counting the general administrative costs of writing up the order, cancelling, toll free number etc. Most mail order companies do factor in a certain amount of their product pricing just to cover that small group of people who pull this type of stuff.

You could refuse it & offer to compensate them for their freight
costs.

I have to say take the order you made your choice. They pay out the nose
to give good service and by shipping in within 5 1/2 hours I'd say that's great. You messed up by not comparing ahead of time...if all you are after is price. Eitherway, thats one reason I don't bother price shopping an item that I've already decided to by. If I "click" submit thats it no more looking for better prices. Just my thoughts. Reno, Paul |

Contact one of those credit card processors and ask to see the rules for
mail order business- You will find that I am correct. Remember, the processor is also a company that offers a service for profit- therefore they do not take money from the purchaser's bank and transfer it to the merchant's bank for nothing- and when an order is cancelled they have to take the money back from the merchant bank and return it to the purchaser- the banks also have fees involved in this as well, so just because its all electronic, its not free.
