Upset, disappointed and out of pocket
Hebden Bridge Antiques Centre的点评
点评:I went yesterday to try sell a large stamp collection and was offered £50 for it by Trish. I thought that was a bit of a low price but I also understand that she has to make a profit so it was no problem for me to decline her offer and try elsewhere.
I then mentioned that I had over 500 First Day Covers and we agreed a price of 25p a cover and told her I would call back with them tomorrow.
The following day, I rang Trish up to say I was coming over and would she be in. She said yes and I told her I would come over later on.
When I got there and showed her the Covers she said she would only pay £20 for them, which is only 4p a Cover and not the 25p that we agreed the previous day.
The covers were all in good condition and there was a good selection of them so there was no issue with them at all.
I did offer to sell them cheaper at 10p but even that was rejected.
I had taken a couple of hours of work and travelled 40 miles with the return trip, so feel very disappointed and upset with Hebden Bridge Antique Centre and Trish in particular.
I have bought from them before, but will not return.
Businesses are built on reputation and especially in their trade, your word should be your bond. If you agree something you should stick with it.
翻译:昨天我去试图出售一批大量的邮票,特里什出价50英镑买下。我觉得这个价格有些偏低,但我也理解她需要盈利,所以拒绝她的报价并决定去别处试试也没什么问题。
后来我提到自己还有500多张首日封,我们商定每枚首日封的价格为25便士,我还告诉她明天会把那些首日封带过去。
第二天,我给特里什打电话,说我马上就到,询问她是否会在店里。她答应了,我告诉她我稍后会过去。
当我到达后给她看了那些封面,她说只愿意出20英镑来购买,换算下来每个封面才4便士,而我们前一天约定的价格可是每个25便士。
那些封面状况良好,种类也很多,根本没有任何问题。
我提出可以以每个10便士的价格出售,但这一提议也被拒绝了。
我花了好几个小时来准备,还往返跑了40英里呢。我对此感到非常失望和恼火,尤其是对希布登桥古董中心以及特里什本人。
我以前也从他们那里买过东西,但以后不会再光顾了。
企业的信誉至关重要,尤其是在他们从事的行业中,承诺就是信用的体现。既然答应了别人,就该信守诺言。
