They're still at it! galivinizedpail.com #Worst Customer Service

They're still at it!!!!!!!! galvinizedpail.com....read on!
Me-This has been SO much fun....sorry you missed out on our order...in case you didn't realize it..."Bucket List" events in the travel industry are the next big thing this year....I could have recommended you instead of sharing your wonderful  (?) "Customer Service" with the world.
Truly....

Them-We are having a record sales year.  Our two manufacturing plants are running at 100% capacity 24/7/365 and demand for our products is still outpacing production.
You on the other hand can’t spell, have an overinflated sense of self-worth and generally speaking aren’t very bright.Three years from now you will be out of business.  Three years from now our third manufacturing plant will be complete and we will still be the number one seller of galvanized products in North America and we will still not want your business.Have a nice day neglecting your business so you can slam ours.We are still waiting for the “DeVia” effect to take hold.

One more rant from galvanizedpail.com Customer Service (?)

One more Rant from galvanizedpail.com: 

Praise Jesus,  we are so busy we need a  break.  Hope you are successful with you reign of vengeance.
Please pour every waking hour into this.  We love it.  We can’t wait until Google picks it up.
Don’t give up now.  We are sure you are so super-duper important that you will have us out of business in a week.
You go girl!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
BTW – You misspelled galvanized.  If you are going to slam us you could at least spell our name right.

Worst customer service ever...#galivnizedpail.com

Please make sure to read this post all the way to the end.  Unbeleivable. #galvinizedpail.com

www.Galvinizedpail.com- Worst customer service ever!!!

This was the conversation stream from our office manager to Galvanizedpail.com.  Avoid doing business with them. They don’t understand customer service and obviously don’t need any business. This was actaully and email stream...they put all this stuff in writing!



Us-        Larger image Galvanized Vase French Bucket 8.5 inch Tall Verdig
$6.39….If we order 225 for a special BUCKET LIST promotion--can we get a better
price and shipping charges to  zip code 33021


Them-We need to determine if there is an issue with our website.
What is the unit price you are being charged online and what is the shipping
cost indicated online?


Customer Service


Us-I did not get that far--I am asking you ..they were like $6.oo plus
Something and I did not see a zone for shipping. I am asking if you have a discount on
225 and what the shipping would be to 33021  zip code


Them-That is what we thought.
Please take your business elsewhere.


Us-I will take my business elsewhere--thank you for suggesting that


Them-You are welcome.
We have been in business more than 20 years.
Our sales greatly outpace production.
So we have the luxury of choosing who we do business with.
All the information you requested was available online with much less effort
then sending these emails.
That is a huge red flag.
Every item has a discount table and getting the shipping cost is as easy as
typing in your zip code.
So you are either not very bright or you are attempting to set us up for
some sort of scam.
Either way you are way too much trouble to deal with.
Glad to see you go elsewhere.


Customer Service



Us-Well...our company has been in business for over 30 years.
And...I am not sure WHO you think you are by talking to potential customers
this way.Most companies give a discount on orders of 225 pails or a large order
totaling over $1300.00If you're the owner of this company I pity your employees. If you are a
employee I pity the owner of this company for such poor customer service.
I have placed my order elsewhere--do not send us any more negative comments




Them-So you still aren't getting it.
And that is why we don't want your business.
As we said previously, there is a discount table for every item we sell.
Hard to believe you are so stupid you missed it.
Your incompetence has caused your company to have to pay a higher price now.
You will be out of business soon enough.
We are done with you.
Your domain has been added to our spam filter.

Guest Blogger Barbara Stein-Travels in North Korea


Fifty photos from Barbara Stein's group tour to
Pyongyang, Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK)

September 1-3, 2011



On September 1, 2011 Ted and I began our three-day/two-night tour with a two-hour flight on an Air Koryo Russian-built Tupolev 204-300 jet





The first evening, after checking in at the Yanggakdo International Hotel, we attended the Arirang Grand Mass Gymnastics and Artistic Performance. More commonly known as the "Mass Games," according to Guinness World Records, these are the world's biggest choreographed spectacle, with over 100,000 performers (80,000 on the field and 20,000 in the grandstand) . The games are held at the Rungrado May Day Stadium. See www.pbase.com/bolla49/arirang for more photos.



About 20,000 participants in the grandstand manipulated flash cards (R) in order to display various images

such as this portrait of Kim Il-sung (L) and the various landscapes and exhortations shown above.

On the morning of September 2 our tour began with a visit to the Monument to

the Victorious Fatherland Liberation War, otherwise known in the West as the Korean War.


L & center: We continued to the Victorious Fatherland Liberation War Museum, which features a large wall mural of Kim Il-sung.
R: A female museum guide lectured to our group about the War.


The museum contains various U. S. and Korean war materiel from the Victorious Fatherland Liberation War ...
... and also a Russian-style circular panoramic painting (L) of the Victorious Fatherland War. Afterward we drove to the USS Pueblo (R).
Captured in 1968, the U. S. naval vessel is now a museum. These bullet holes (center) on the USS Pueblo are
highlighted with red paint.

L: Ted and I posed across the river from the Tower of the Juche Idea ("self-reliance"). Center: Ted snapped me sitting with fellow

participants on our tour bus. R: A policewoman directed Pyongyang's very sparse traffic near Kim Il-sung Square downtown.

L & center: A bulgogi (Korean BBQ) lunch was served to our group on a riverboat. R: Afterward we drove to Mangyongdae Native House, Kim Il-sung's birthplace.



Then we rode on the Pyongyang metro, passing through five stations. Open from 6 AM to 9 PM, this is the

world's deepest subway system (the stations can double as bomb shelters), with two intersecting lines.

Pyongyang's buildings: L: Pyramid-shaped Ryugyong Hotel and office building (under construction), Center: Arch of Triumph, R: TV Tower.

We ascended the 150-meter-high Tower of the Juche Idea ("self-reliance"), which commemorates the 70th birthday of Kim Il-sung. Although we had to pay EUR 5 (about USD 7) each to ride the tower elevator, at least the panoramic city views from the top were superb. L: The Yanggakdo International Hotel, where we stayed,
is the tower at the tip of the island beyond the bridge. Center:
Pyongyang is compact, with little urban sprawl. Agricultural fields begin just beyond the built-up area.
R: From the Tower of the Juche Idea we spied these older, single-story buildings tucked in between residential towers near the city center.


L: From the
Tower of the Juche Idea we could see Rungrado May Day Stadium where the Mass Games are staged. The final destination on our tour with a political message was the Party Foundation Monument (center and R). Erected in 1995, this sculpture celebrates 50 years of rule by the Workers' Party of Korea.

The hammer, sickle and writing brush represent the worker, the peasant and the intellectual.

In the early evening, after stopping at a department
store, we were given some free time at Pyongyang's

Gold Lane Bowling Alley, where we wrote a few postcards.


After dinner at the Hot Pot Restaurant, we drove to an amusement park where non-Koreans were charged EUR 2 or EUR 3 per person (USD 3 or
USD 4) for most rides. During our 75 minutes there I took a number of photos of locals. This was the final stop in our 14-hour day of touring, which

included three meals, two of which were taken outside the hotel.



Early on our final morning Ted took this photo of Pyongyang from our room on the sixteenth
floor of the
Yanggakdo International Hotel. The Tower of the Juche Idea is visible in the
distance, to the right of the bridge. After breakfast our group took a bus to Pyongyang's

Sunan International Airport and flew back to Beijing on a Tupolev TU-204-100B.
