Hi Guy, I have a 36x28" painting of yours "Village of Cheperan" . I was wondering what I would have to do, to get you to give me a letter of authenticity? Please contact me at firstname.lastname@example.com
Of course it ends a few days before I reach San Fran...
This looks (to have been) fascinating! Too bad the story was published so late in the run of the exhibit, and so near to the time of the closing event!
Hey, I'm Ryanaustin (Curator) and there should be two corrections to the piece.
1. We did not screen Watermelon Woman, instead we screened the shorts of Cecile Emeke
2. The Directors name for Day by Day is Jehnovah not "Jehovah"
I wrote this song last week in honor of the Black Panther Party:
If invited, I will perform it at the anniversary events.

You failed to mention the wonderful exhibit at the Oakland Main Library's Oakland History Room, "Revolution is a Daily Struggle: remembering the Black Panther Party's Social Programs." http://oaklandlibrary.org/exhibits/revolution-daily-struggle-remembering-black-panther-partys-social-programs
The Panthers were fulfilling lots of basic social needs that the local and state governments were not addressing. That's an important part of their legacy. Check out this exhibit!
Is this going to be an annual event?
So excited about this show. A long time coming. We Black Women are finding our voices. Forming Sistar Circles all over the country. Once we remember how to unite our resources for our greater good, the sky is the limit. Empowering. Enlightening. Engaging.
It is unfortunately a popular myth perpetuated by the EcoActivist left that the honey bee is dying or in danger. Since 2006, when the number of commercial colonies was at 2.1 million, and when the meaningless term CCD - Colony Collapse Disorder was coined, there has been a 50% increase in the number of colonies to approx 3 million. The four important metrics in the industry are all up - number of colonies - pounds per colony - total pounds and price per pound - all up significantly. The losses that are being reported are mostly from Newbees, newbeekeepers - who by the way - fewer than 10% stay active in beekeeping for more than three years.

Is this the same Julia Shirar who was a member of the band 'Pillows'?
I think "pus" has one s, "puss" is something else altogether. That doesn't look like puss.
Auto shops are starting to do a lot of really cool things nowadays. I'm not surprised that they are making these cars, that are already fine art, into an even more collectible piece.These shops can really turn a beat up car into a masterpiece, I wonder if all shops would be willing to do such a thing. http://www.autobodyhuntingtonbeachca.com
This is all very great for young, female graduates and I'm happy for them. However, let me speak up for the older, mature female artists who did not have the benefit of today's insights and novel attitudes towards female art/artists. What about those of us who somehow navigated a tougher system several years ago but yet manage to hang on to our art practice? What about those of us who somehow manage to balance motherhood and their art? Who somehow manage to work for one's basic survival needs (and their family's) and still do their art? Who have had to keep a day job and still do their art? Whose art have never been significantly recognized or validated by the Art World and yet still keep going? Is today's inclusivity focused only on the young and upcoming? Is the concept of doing art minus the driving ambition of attaining rock star status such a dismal place to be?

Hi, Do you do write-ups about the events at the Osceola Gallery in Emeryville and the Mythos Gallery in Berkeley?
Recently, the Mythos Gallery has produced art shows of significant quality, from historical themes to the upcoming contemporary abstract work. Osceola Gallery has recently held an open house and I saw works there from mid-20th century that are that are a collector's dream. Both worthwhile art news, Janet Norris
Some particularly nice bits from the review:
"Anything avowed to a prescribed notion of worth and beauty was immediately asked to leave."
"The artist doesn't openly theorize about the perceived limitations of literature, but matter-of-factly presents viewers with works that defy their existence."
"A video montage called "How to Write Good Poetry" cements that point pretty well."
Uh huh. As The New Yorker's founder and editor Harold Ross was wont to note on a submission "what mean?"
Am I entirely wrong in thinking that there will soon be a Man Booker Prize for the year's best text?
All of the works featured in "First Thought, Worst Thought" are available as free downloads and/or print-on-demand editions via Gauss PDF (originally published 4/27/15): http://www.gauss-pdf.com/post/117480745350/gpdf170gpdfe014-tom-comitta-first-thought
It's an uplifting work that you can see from all over town. Zio Ziegler, thank you!

Gus's Fried Chicken - You will hear me talking about Gus's Fried Chicken on this blog and elsewhere, not because it is the best fried chicken that I have ever had. But because the batter was unique enough that it had me scratching my head on what was in it. I haven't done any experimentation as of this date with brown rice flour. But I can confirm that a 50/50 ratio of wheat flour and corn flour comes closer than a straight wheat flour recipe. My other guess is that there is some sugar in it. Dylan at Boomtown Coffee confirmed to me that sugar will contribute to the crispness. Anyway. Here is a video or two of what we are talking about.
(Update: I will discover that the base is a slurry of 1 cup cornstarch to 1 1/4 buttermilk)
So cool that Pollos Hermanos on Breaking Bad owner and all around bad guy is Gus.

Kvale's Life Sciences Team has issued a new newsletter with important healthcare and life sciences updates in Norway.
Included in the newsletter:
Contact: Rainer Herzig; Preslmayr Rechtsanwälte (Austria)
Article 13(1) of the EU Supplementary Protection Certificate (SPC) Regulation (469/2009)(1) provides that an SPC will take effect at the end of the lawful term of a basic patent for a period equal to that which elapsed between the date on which the basic patent application was lodged and the date of the first authorisation to place the product on the market, reduced by five years. Article 13 neither clearly indicates whether the rule for calculating the period of exclusivity conferred by an SPC is governed by the procedural law of the member state concerned or solely by the provision nor whether the period counts from the date of adoption or the date of notification of the marketing authorisation. Although there is only a small timespan between these two dates, the economic impact of this difference is substantial.

Antisocial Personality Disorder Symptoms
Posted on July 25, 2016 by Dore E. Frances, PhD
By Steve Bressert, Ph.D. Antisocial personality disorder is a disorder that is characterized by a long-standing pattern of disregard for other people's rights, often crossing the line and violating those rights. A person with antisocial personality disorder (APD) often feels … Continue reading →

I am 31 years old when my 27 year old co-worker says to me,
"I swear, you just do not look like you are over thirty."
I smile.
At the time of this conversation I was pregnant and two years into my residency, pale from living inside a hospital, gaunt and greasy from cafeteria food. If anyone, looked their age I certainly did.
Yet I would have said the same thing four years prior, feeling sure that reaching your third decade meant immediately becoming arthritic and shriveled, breasts drooping to your ankles. I too was surprised, I remember turning 30 and unexpectedly I still looked a lot like I did when I was a youthful 29.
. . .
I am 16 years old, when after spending the first part of my teen years dripping with baby oil and baking in the sun (whenever we saw the sun in Ohio) I'm told I must spend the rest of them slathered in sunscreen. I wonder how I can still mange to get a tan, but I heed the warnings, not of cancer, but of wrinkles, or worse, sun spots.
I am 35, I have a daughter in preschool. Everyday we marvel about how big she is getting. "Soon you will be 4," we say and giggle.
I am 14 and hear my grandmother say to my mother, "it's really time to start dying your hair" (early gray runs in the family), soon after she did. Prior to that moment I had never noticed a gray hair on her head.
. . .
One of the gifts of childhood is that you always find your own mother beautiful. Or perhaps I should put it, one of the gifts of motherhood is that your child always finds you beautiful.
. . .
Yet somewhere along the way we start to doubt. We look around for reassurance and instead find impossible images of endless youth crammed into every nook and cranny of our lives.
Of course if the Beauty Industry let us think that we were actually beautiful they would quickly put themselves out of business. Instead they set the unachievable before us and we become their perpetual consumers. Make up, hair dye then micro-derm abrasion or Botox and finally we can go under the knife risking sedation and infection, spending our savings to get a lift and tuck.
And after all this do we feel any better about how we look?
To be clear I am not against all things cosmetic. There is power in beauty and it can be a joy to look our best, to primp or wear a new dress. But it should be "our best". Not a made up ever evasive youthful version of ourselves or worse of someone else.
Beauty is God given, it need not be a burden of time, money or energy. If it is, we are doing something wrong.
When I was younger I always assumed I would go to whatever extent to look as much like a Barbie Doll as humanly possible. If I put on an extra pound I swore I'd be at the gym working it off and would give up eating pie entirely. The way I looked felt more important than almost anything else. I couldn't imagine having any intrinsic value if my appearance wasn't all that it could be. Still today when I feel sad I could just as easily describe it as feeling ugly.
Now twenty years later those dreaded fine lines are starting to appear around my eyes, my hair is going gray, I have acne scars (and new acne at the same time), and every now and then I pluck a wiry whisker from my chin. I no longer own a tube of mascara or lipstick (though I do wax my eyebrows and use hair gel). All my fears about being a little soft or saggy don't matter any more. In letting go of an impossible standard I've embraced a reality, that we are all beautiful expressions of God's love for the world. And that doesn't change if we are 85 or 35.

Three Custom Color Specialists have recently released their Daytime Drama Palette, which makes getting gorgeous fast easier than ever. Jim DeMarco, Emmy Award Winning-makeup artist on One Life To Live has partnered with Three Custom Color to create palette is the goof proof for everyone.
You'll get 5 shades that work to create a full face, in a refillable trio compact that fits easily in even the most slim handbag. The cream colors mean the shades are easy to work with, impossible to overdo and completely goof proof.
One of the most versatile colors in this collection is easily the opalescent shimmer, Backlit. It can be used on your eyes, your cheekbones, the center of your lip or lightly applied above your cupid's bow. I love to use it as just a kiss of shimmer in the center of my eye lid. It makes your lashes stand out and your eyes brighter!
You'll get Camera Ready, a peachy/pink lip gloss that is flattering on all skin tones. This light shade makes your pout glisten, with a muted bit of color.
Red Carpet Cheek and Lip Stain gives you a hint of cheek and lip flush, or you can build it for more color. It always looks dewy, which shaves years off of your appearance. Just be sure not to cover it with powder- you'll strip away the youthful glow!
Siren is a wonderful shade to create a sultry bedroom eye. It even doubles as a cheek contour. You'll want to make sure you use a primer and top with a powder if you want to avoid creasing. However, if you are looking for that sexy, undone look, this will do just that.
The Close Up Cream Eye Definer is a dark brown liner that won't move once it's on. You can use it to line the eyes, or create a super smoky, smudged, sexy eye. The messier the better. Try applying a thick strip of brown with your finger across your eyelid, staying below the crease. Take a stiff domed brush and blend the edges out. Then add a little Siren over the dark edge and voila!
So pretty! You'll also get a brush which can help with a multitude of on-the-go needs. Pick it up from Three Custom Color for $74.
Three Custom Color Specialists does not test on animals.

Black sesame seeds are more flavorful and have a stronger aroma than white or brown sesame seeds. Toasting the seeds enhances that flavor. They're rich in a fatty oil, between 40% and 60%, which has a distinctive flavor; this pairs nicely with the sweetness of the white chocolate.
white chocolate bark with toasted black sesame seeds
1 pound white chocolate, chopped (do not use chips)
black sesame seeds, toasted.
1/4 tsp. sesame oil
~ Spray a rimmed baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray; line with waxed paper and set aside
~ Place white chocolate in a heatproof bowl set over (not in) a saucepan of simmering water. Heat, stirring occasionally, until smooth, 4 to 6 minutes. Remove from heat, add sesame oil and stir to combine.
~ Pour mixture onto prepared baking sheet; using a spatula, spread evenly to a 1/4-inch thickness.
~ Sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds; with a piece of waxed paper covering the entire surface, press in gently. Chill until firm, 20 to 30 minutes
~ Peel waxed paper off. Break bark into 2-inch pieces. Enjoy!

My brother and I just posted a bread recipe using black sesame seeds it was wonderful. We still have lots left over so we'll have to try your wonderful recipe with the rest.
This looks really good. I like black sesame anything, it has such a subtle but rich flavor. I've done it with pound cakes and cookies but never on white chocolate. It looks great!

Everyone wants to be popular and with social media it is not seen as too difficult. Just a video of someone singing a good song can go viral, it could be you as well. With social media everyone feels that they have a hidden talent that can make them popular in YouTube. There could also be a company that is coming up with a new product and would want to sell their product by way of having a YouTube video.
However, as one will realize soon that it is not very easy to get the views and likes. Even if the video or the product is too good, unless people know about it they may not see it and the more the video is watched, the more it gets popular and in turn gets more views, It is a vicious cycle and has to be triggered at first. How to get those first few thousand views is a real problem and once that is achieved, things just multiply from then on.
One way to do this is to buy YouTube views. There are many bots available that can just run by a program and make YouTube think that a thousand views had been done. However this only paves way for the video to be penalized by search engines and it is not safe, any further videos you post could also get negative ranking. Thus it is important to buy safe YouTube views.
There are companies that help you get the views and that too safely and there are some good sites as well that also give you tips on how to increase your views and likes. Marketing is key, just buying views only goes to an extent but marketing especially in social media is really what would help in making a video go viral. Having quality content also has its advantage.

kith @Park Mall
kith cafe
Park Mall, 9 Penang Road #01-01E
Official Site
A visit to the Park Mall outlet, the first outlet is at Watermark, Robertson Quay.
kith cafe is another of the many modern chic cafes that sprouted like wild mushrooms after the rain.
kith serves western cuisine as well as breakfast. However, it is not breakfast all-day. they serve breakfast up till 3 P.M. daily.
Big Breakfast with choice of bread and eggs
Smoked Duck Sandwich served with nacho chips
There is not much available from the breakfast menu, but they do serve quite a variety of sandwiches and pastas. Food tastes decent but really nothing much to shout about. For the prices, I would recommend brunch at Dean & Deluca, Food for Thought or even Wild Honey.
Despite the fancy chic layout of the restaurant, with furnishings coming directly from their neighbour XTRA, the ambience is forgettable. So what is left for kith is just whole idea of "been there, done that".

Well, I do not speak any Japanese or Chinese, but I think that's most likely the case. Why do I think that? I have been in Tokyo for the past week, and already spent 3 weeks here last year, and one of the things I've noticed is the funny t-shirt texts in English. Their knowledge of English language is probably close to our general knowledge of Japanese, so... you have a mess.
Things like "Behave me", or "All we need it love, is we need", or even "Laughing got tired", are very common here. I already got two of those shirts. They are awesome! :)

This article needs additional citations for verification. (May 2018) (Learn how and when to remove this template message)
Non-monogamy (or nonmonogamy) is an umbrella term for every practice or philosophy of intimate relationship that does not strictly hew to the standards of monogamy, particularly that of having only one person with whom to exchange sex, love, and affection. Therefore, in that sense "nonmonogamy" may be as accurately applied to infidelity and extramarital sex as to group marriage or polyamory.
More specifically, "nonmonogamy" refers to forms of interpersonal relationship, intentionally undertaken, in which demands for exclusivity (of sexual interaction or emotional connection, for example) are attenuated or eliminated. Individuals may form multiple and simultaneous sexual or romantic bonds.[1] This stands in contrast to monogamy, yet may arise from the same psychology.[2]
The term has been criticized as implying that monogamy is the norm, and thus other ways of relating are deviant and therefore somehow unhealthy or immoral.
Many terms for non-monogamous practices are flexible in definition, being based on criteria such as "relationship" or "love" that are themselves questionably defined. There are forms whose practitioners set themselves apart by qualifiers such as "ethically non-monogamous" with the intent of distancing from the deceit or subterfuge they perceive in certain other relational forms.
As well, usage creates distinctions beyond the raw definitions of the words. Thus, even though some relationships might technically be considered both polygamous and polyamorous, "polygamy" usually signifies a codified form of multiple marriage, based on established religious teachings, while "polyamory" is based on the preferences of the participants rather than social custom or established precedent.
Forms of non-monogamy are many, and can overlap, a few being:
- casual relationship — a physical and emotional relationship between two unmarried people who may have a sexual relationship
- cuckoldry — a person has sex with another individual without the consent of their partner(s) or purposefully excludes them from sex
- group marriage — several people form a single familial unit, with each considered to be married to one another (popularized to some extent by novelists Robert A. Heinlein and Robert Rimmer)
- group sex and orgies involving more than two participants at the same time
- line families — a form of group marriage intended to outlive its original members by ongoing addition of new spouses
- ménage à trois — a sexual (and sometimes domestic) arrangement involving three people
- open relationship (incl. open marriage) — one or both members of a committed (or married) couple have the express freedom to become sexually active with others
- polyamory — participants have multiple romantic partners
- poly families — similar to group marriage, but some members may not consider themselves married to all other members
- polyfidelity — participants have multiple partners but restrict sexual activity to within a certain group
- polygamy — one person in a relationship has married multiple partners
- polyandry — a woman has multiple husbands
- polygyny — a man has multiple wives
- plural marriage — a form of polygyny associated with the Latter Day Saint movement in the 19th-century and with present-day splinter groups from that faith. It is also associated with an evangelical splinter group which advocates Christian Plural Marriage
- relationship anarchy — participants are not bound by set rules
- swinging — similar to open relationships, but conducted as an organized social activity, often involving some form of group sex

It had to happen. I needed to write a blog about them.
Breasts, especially mine seem to dominate the conversation when I am around. The reasons well they are obvious.
I got to thinking about them a lot last week. I was asked to go on Can of Worms. The topic-"If a woman gets a boob-job, is it an invitation to look at them."
It was a rather humorous day! I took along the rather fabulous Rita Fontaine and we dressed to impress. When we arrived we were seated up the back, but soon someone came up to us and told us we were being moved right to the very front. We obviously looked too fabulous!
So there we were up the front myself wearing a red top that frames my (natural) abundant chest and a Black and Cherry wiggle skirt and Rita in a daringly low-cut and high thigh slit dress. Dicko and Jamie could not stop looking and giving us little grins.
What did I say? Well I said a lot. I have spent more than half my life thinking about the subject. They cut most of what I said – but you can watch the result here: http://ten.com.au/video-player.htm?movideo_p=45071&movideo_m=128111
And the advert that was played several times Monday night: https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?v=10150275783311366
So to tell you more I have to start with my turbulent history with my Breasts.
It all started when I was 11 and in yr 6 at school. Overnight it seems they grew, going from nothing to a C cup overnight. When I went to go shopping with my Mum for my first bra (which I had avoided as I didn't want to admit that I needed one) I tried on one owned by my older (by 3 years) sister and to her disgust I spilled out of it. My sister has a lot to do with how I felt about my breasts in those early days. As a small chested teenager, looking back I can see she was jealous and would comment on mine frequently. She was just a teenager herself and knew no better really.
So by the age of 13 in year 8 at an all girls high school I was an E cup. I didn't dress up much, wore no makeup (indeed wasn't even shaving my legs yet) but I still managed to get a lot of attention. Sometimes from other girls but often the attention got disturbing especially from men who were old enough to be my father and even grandfathers. With my 13-year-old mind, I was ill-equipped to deal with the attention. So I hid under baggy high-necked t-shirts and boyish clothes, ashamed almost and wanting to repel some of the attention. I was scared of older men and avoided looking them in the eye. On the rare occasion I showed a bit of cleavage I felt self-conscious and uncomfortable.
Time went on and I slowly learnt that dressing like this only made me look fatter, and did nothing to repel attention from the sleazes. It wasn't until I got into burlesque though that I started to accept them, then appreciate and celebrate them.
Yes they are sexy and men (and a lot of women) go gaga over them.
But they are also comforting. I have many a time held a friend to my bosom while they cried. My Niece in particular is a fan, she once said whilst cuddling up to me " You're so comfy Aunty".
So you may ask why I put them on display so much.
Well why not! They are fabulous! It looks better when I wear low-cut tops. I have to admit I do like most of the attention they get.
Also in a funny way I feel like I have re-empowered myself by displaying them. It is a bit of a f*ck you to those old creeps who hit on me and the girls who teased 13 yr old me.
So many people don't really know what breasts look like. Except in porn or movies (or if you are a burlesque performer where backstage can be a boobfest) most people see few boobs and may negatively compare themselves to what they see in these idealized formats. Here are some web sites that I really like who look a breasts in different ways.
The first is a photographic site that tells stories about breasts in a photographic medium. Show Us Ya Tits
The second is a frank almost medical site. This site was a great help to me. It has all types on it including those that are somewhat "unusual". Normal Breasts Gallery
finally for those who want to support a worthy event I will be making a short appearance at this F*ck Cancer- A Fundraiser.

Badal Shah, Director, Home Build Tech India Pvt Ltd, shares the scope of premium and mid segment quality products in the Indian market for doors and windows, and the wide range of products offered by the company.
How do you view the current market for doors and windows in India?
The premium quality product and the mid segment have a huge scope in the current Indian market scenario for doors and windows.
Tell us about your products and offerings for the Indian market.
We have specifically developed two different ranges of products for the above mentioned segments - the premium windows series called Signature Series, and the mid range called Slimline Series.
With the government´s mission of ´Housing For All by 2022´ and a new focus on affordable housing, any low-cost products - but which are high on quality - that you have planned or are planning for affordable homes?
Yes, we have planned low-cost products which are high on quality.Also, introduce us to the features in your products that cater to the requirement of green and smart buildings.
The premium Signature Series is developed, keeping in view, the green building requirements. This series can accommodate high performance insulated glass units up to 32 mm thick. We should remember that in any window or door, the amount of heat transmitted through the aluminium surfaces is much lesser as compared to the glass or infill surfaces. So, to be able to accommodate high performance glass unit, combinations is a necessity.
Also, the Slimline Series has been developed to accommodate safety laminated (with centri) up to 19.52 mm, which can be a reasonably good anti intrusion defence without having to use grills, etc, which spoils the vision and views through glass. Today, all architects demand minimum visible aluminium and maximum glass viewing surfaces, hence, the name Slimline and the product with minimum sizes.
As manufacturers of doors and/or windows, what are the challenges you face in this business? What are the strategic steps taken by you to overcome the same?
This industry is still 90 per cent disorganised; people still do cutting or fabrication at sites, hence, how can quality and consistency be ensured (unless it is a logistic necessity and the developers have provided proper facility, enclosed creating a factory environment).
Our challenge is to convince a lot of developers and architects regarding the advantages of a factory-produced door and window. For this, we have developed a systematic plan to create awareness by marketing, using all technology tools available today, such as electronic media and print media; specially developed sample kits or display carry cases; personal visits by our sales consultants giving product presentations; and installing site mock-ups.
What are the present and upcoming trends for doors and windows in the Indian market and what is the opportunity you see in future?
A good observation we have made, is that clients are ready to appreciate a good quality product if it is flexible to suit their requirements. Another observation is that there is a huge premium market, especially in B and C grade cities, and where appreciation and acceptance of good quality is more open hearted and genuine and clients do not mind increasing their budget to accommodate these products.

GANGNEUNG, South Korea (Reuters) - Patrick Chan's new coach has said that the Canadian figure skater had fallen in love with his sport again after relocating to his homeland to train for his third and final Olympic Games.
The 27-year-old parted ways with Marina Zoueva, with whom he trained in the United States, just weeks before the Pyeongchang Olympics and returned to Canada to work with Canadian coach Ravi Walia.
Chan, who plans to retire after the Games, said on Tuesday that his bold relocation and coaching shake-up were designed to put him in a mentally satisfied state as he neared the end of his competitive career.
"I think that he was struggling, kind of dreading going to the rink everyday," Walia told Reuters after Chan's morning practice on Wednesday.
"I think moving back to Canada gave him a change of scenery and I think he just fell in love with skating. I didn't expect that."
The turning point for Chan came at the Skate Canada International event last October, where he finished a disappointing fourth.
The triple world champion said he had been "uncomfortable and unhappy" at that event and that he needed a change.
Walia, who also coaches Canadian women's medal hope Kaetlyn Osmond, said Chan had come to enjoy his training process, approaching it like a job that needed to be done.
"I think the last two Games he had a lot of pressure on him," Walia said. "I think that it's a priority for him to skate for himself, with that freedom to enjoy it. Because I don't think he had that. It's kind of like ending on his own terms."
Chan, who finished fifth at the 2010 Vancouver Olympics, clinched silver behind Japan's Yuzuyu Hanyu in Sochi four years ago, where he had been favoured to win.
"He's put the work in and now he can enjoy it," Walia said. "That's the main thing. I want to see him have the Olympic moment that he didn't have before."

30 Route 110 Home Furnishings Consumer Reviews and Complaints
A link has directed you to this review. Its location on this page may change next time you visit.
I ordered a bed for my child at One Ten HF because they had the Behr's sign on the building and we had good experiences with Behr's years back. So I find one that looks good and I go to buy it. The purchase procedure was very easy and I paid for the whole thing at once. I should have followed my gut instinct to just give a deposit, but I didn't. My mistake. The salesman tells me it should be in 3 to 4 weeks. 4 weeks go by, no bed. I call and was given the 2 more week story. Backordered, made to order, etc. OK, long story short, I ordered in July and didn't get it until late September.
What irks me is I was told the trucks come in from the Carolinas, and I thought given the HIGH cost of this bed it was a quality piece. Instead, it's made in China crap. Moreover, the shipping company left all their garbage on the side of my house for me to clean up. It rained, as it was all a soggy mess. So, if you like paying high prices for made in China garbage you could buy for half the price on the internet, get lied to about when it's coming, and have to clean up the mess the movers leave, have at it. If you value your money and time and like to be treated as a human being, pass this place by. Any following review that gives overly excited glowing reviews with lots of exclamation marks is a lie. It's happened before.
I was searching for a dining room table that I LOVED for a long time. When I came across one I found at 110 HFG, It took me a couple times to go back because of all of the negative reviews. I was skeptical. WELL, Firstly, my sales rep Daniel, who is VERY nice, told me I can pay the second half with a credit card, before it comes in. SO, I went to the store the day before delivery, and management gave me a hard time paying with a CC. He said I had to pay with a cashiers check. I said, "Absolutely not, my rep said I can pay with a card so that is what I will be using." He hesitantly took the card. And now I know why they say they only want Cashiers checks, because when my set came a day later, they gave me two wrong end chairs.
Delivery men, who were very pleasant as well, got the manager on the phone and the manager specifically said, "Because of the inconvenience, you can keep the wrong chairs and the new ones once they come in." Yea, right. When the new ones came in 2 weeks later, they swapped them out and took back the incorrect ones. Which normally would be fine. But when someone promises you something, and then basically calls you a liar, without actually saying it, is plain WRONG. I had a pretty bad experience here because of management alone. Sales rep and Delivery men were very nice, but upper management needs to learn Customer Courtesy. He basically tells you what you want to hear and then takes it back. Never ordering anything from these people again.
The beginning of March I bought a sectional and dining room set that supposed to be delivered between 3 to 5 weeks later. No problem with the sectional but the dining set was incomplete, one chair was missing and another chair had a cracked leg. Then I was told they need to order new chairs and will take two more weeks... I told them my daughter's First communion will be the end of May!!! So hopefully I may have a complete set by then. When they "finally" came to deliver the two chairs, for my surprise they ordered only one chair instead of two and the one they had was completely broken!!!
We are in July now...and still no chairs. My husband went to the store to made the claim and was told the chairs will be delivered this Friday July 6th. Today I spoke with Katrina and she said the delivery can't be on Friday. All I can say is DO NOT BUY ANY FURNITURE HERE!! And read the reviews first before you spend your money in a store that doesn't have any consideration for their customers, this company has the worst customer service (if they have one...) and for sure they don't even have quality control because I can not understand how can take 4 MONTHS to get just two chairs!!
No Stars, avoid this place of business. My wife and I are having twins. We ordered about 5K worth of merchandise, cribs, dressers etc. At the two month mark we called for an update and was told it was back ordered. At the 3 month mark we called they said it was back ordered. We asked when we might have an update. It was very difficult to get an answer. No phone calls back from the salesmen Benny and no calls back from management.
My wife and I called the manufacturer only to find out that they have no record of our order and the furniture we ordered was not available in the color we requested. Rather than being honest saying, "Benny made a mistake," they said it fell through the cracks and nothing else. It's really unfortunate to lie to consumers this way. At no point was any of our merchandise ordered, they just kept telling us it was back ordered. Really poor management and lack of communication with the consumer. Any consumer should avoid this place.
I recently purchased over $5000 worth of furniture from Home Furnishing Galleries in Farmingdale. Our salesperson, Patty, was an absolute pleasure to deal with. My issue began when my dining room set was delivered with major damage all over the table and chairs. I tried calling the store on multiple occasions with no answer. A woman by the name of Julia finally called me back and scheduled a replacement. Two weeks later when I called to check the status of my couches, I asked Julia about the status of the new table. She proceeded to tell me that the table is out of stock and it's going to take longer. When were they going to notify me of this?
This upset me, so she said she would have the manager, Kahn, call me the next day to follow up. When he called me, he clearly didn't care about the inconvenience - said there is nothing he can do and that he needs to hang up the phone on me because I called him "rude." Really??? When I asked him for the name of his superior, he said, "I'm the boss!" This is embarrassing. I'm 29 years old and oversee the sales and customer service of a large area within a Fortune 500 company. You should be embarrassed to employee a seasoned manager like Kahn to represent your location. I'll never shop at Home Furnishing Galleries again and you can thank Kahn for that.

See attached photos, This is the couch I purchased from Home Furnishings Galleries in Farmingdale NY for $3244 at the end of 2014 (December). The furniture was manufactured by Klaussner and it is falling apart. Neither the store or the Manufacturer is will to stand behind their product... Even the so called 5 year Protection Plan Plus is no good. Only seems to cover spills. The manufacturer is NO LONGER making this couch or the fabric. I hope you can do something.
Amazing experience from showroom staff to delivery team. It took 10 different stores to find exactly what we wanted in terms of style and price, and once we found One Ten Home Furnishings we needed to look no further. Benny, who we can only put it as being our guide, helped us define and match our style, without pushing us at all. Pushy salespeople are the worst, and Benny was completely the opposite. He was more of a friend, personable and personal each time we walked in, and we couldn't be happier with the 3 rooms we furnished with One Ten.
Delivery team was efficient, polite, and respectful. Not to mention on time, and considering we live upstate New York that is no small feat. Unpacking and assembly was perfect, with the delivery crew moving furniture with care and to our preference. When one piece (a table leaf) was revealed to be damaged, the team at One Ten worked to assure a quick fix, and kept us posted on progress on the repair. We've sent all our friends to One Ten to visit Benny and crew, and stand by our recommendations. We'll be going there for all our future rooms.
My husband and I bought a leather couch one and a half years ago and the seam was ripped. We are still waiting for the repair company to fix it. They've been here three times already and something else was wrong each time. The couch looks terrible.
MAJOR ISSUES: Displaced Hurricane Sandy victim moved to a new house, warranty = VOIDED!! Both Route 110 Furnishings and the manufacturer, in this case Natuzzi, have declined to take any responsibility. After spending $4000 on a sectional, I now have a part of it that can't be used because it's broken and no one wants to repair it! My home was affected by water damage in Hurricane Sandy and I had to move, but apparently moving voids your warranty, accidental damage coverage and any other implied warranty. BUYER BEWARE!!! Unless you plan on staying in the same house/apartment for the term that you are buying coverage or expecting to get warrantied, do NOT purchase from them or from Natuzzi!!!
The very long letter written in the review section for this horrendous company was written by me. I filed complaints with Suffolk County Department of Consumer Affairs and the Better Business Bureau (which this fly-by-night company is not even accredited by! Having an accreditation by the BBB is pretty much standard for any reputable company which 110 Home Furnishings is most definitely not!). **, the customer service manager, states in her reply that they "tried several times to set up delivery" and I was refusing to accommodate them and she guesses I changed my mind. Damn straight I changed my mind.
I ordered over $3,500 worth of furniture in March 2012 and I learned in July 2012 (when I physically went to their store because neither ** nor anyone else would call me back to give me a status update of my order), that my chair and throw pillows were not even constructed yet! Even worse, they made an ottoman (which I never ordered) using the fabric for the chair and pillows and I was told during this visit that the fabric has been discontinued (it took these morons 4 months to know that the fabric that a customer chose had been discontinued?). ** states that was "refusing to set up a delivery". How could I do that **? You don't even have my entire order and I paid for this furniture 6 months ago.
I got my money back from my American Express card and purchased a beautiful living room set from Raymour and Flanigan a month ago (after having no living room furniture for about 4 months because 110 Home Furnishings is a joke). I also purchased a full bedroom set, a $4,000 sectional, a dining room set and a china cabinet from Raymour and Flanigan. They are professional, deliver the furniture within a week and offer great warranties on all of their furniture. If there is anyone reading this site that is currently disputing a charge with 110 Home Furnishings here is an important piece of advice: file a complaint with the Better Business Bureau and Suffolk County Department of Consumer Affairs and if you have not filed a complaint yet and are awaiting furniture, do not accept anything but your entire, completed order. I was told by the investigator of Suffolk Consumer Affairs that she has numerous cases involving 100 Home Furnishings.
It seems their vendors will not deliver items to them because they have so many outstanding balances. Example: I ordered a Broyhill set that is now sitting at 110 Furnishings and since I refused delivery of anything (since my order was never completed) and I received a full refund from American Express, Broyhill will not see a dime from my order. The residual effect is that if you order a Broyhill set from 110 Home Furnishings next week, you have to pay in full upfront to 100 H.F. but Broyhill will not ship your order to them because they are still owed money from my order. Thanks for throwing in the towel ** and not disputing your ** claims. I love my Raymour and Flanigan furniture in my living room. I hope the furniture that I ordered from you doesn't collect too much dust in your showroom. Tell ** I said hello also. You two ** should be working the cotton candy booth at Adventureland down the street.
On March 24, 2012, my wife and I purchased a living room set (sofa, loveseat, chair, cocktail table, end table and accent pillows) from 110 (or One Ten) Home Furnishings located at 75 Sherwood Ave Farmingdale, NY 11735; phone (631) 752-4760; fax (631) 694-8910. The cost of this purchase was $3,529.23 and my American Express card was charged in full at the time of the purchase. All of the items, with the exception of the chair and accent pillows, were stock items available for sale from the Broyhill Furniture company. The chair and accent pillows had an identical fabric that had to be custom ordered and made. My wife and I stated that we would wait until the entire order was completed before we received delivery. We were informed that delivery would be in approximately 8-10 weeks (this was written on our receipt by the salesman who assisted us in purchasing this living room set).
According to this time frame, our furniture should have been delivered between the dates of May 19, 2012 and June 2, 2012. My wife and I called 110 Home Furnishings several times after this time frame had elapsed and we were either told our furniture would be on the delivery truck from Broyhill in North Carolina this week and we would receive a call when it arrived, so we could schedule a home delivery or we were told that the customer service manager named ** would call us back but she never did. After getting no straight answers from 110 Home Furnishings and having no idea about the status of our order, my wife and I disputed the charge with American Express on July 17, 2012 (the reference number at American Express for this dispute is #**).
American Express credited the total amount of $3,529.23 towards our current credit card balance. American Express said that if the furniture order was completed and we were willing to accept delivery of the completed order, our credit card would again be charged the total amount of the purchase in the amount of $3,529.23. My wife and I called 110 Home Furnishings no less than four times since the American Express card dispute and asked to speak specifically with the customer service manager **. Absolutely none of these calls were returned by ** nor were we ever called by anyone else at 110 Home Furnishings to be given a status update of our order.
On August 6, 2012, I happened to be in the vicinity of 110 Home Furnishings and I personally went to the store to try to find out about the status of our furniture order, seeing as how absolutely none of our phone calls were returned and I felt that my wife and I were being ignored by the staff of 110 Home Furnishings. As soon as I entered the store, I asked to speak with the elusive and mysterious customer service manager **. Instead, I dealt with a salesman named **. I gave ** a copy of my order and he said that he would check on it. I was seated in a chair for over 30 minutes while ** went into the back office to check the status of my order.
When he finally came back out, I learned that not only was my furniture order not completed, but items that I had not even ordered were being charged to my account. An ottoman (which I never ordered) was made using the fabric that my wife and I had selected for our chair and accent pillows. I also learned that the fabric that we chose for the chair and accent pillows (the fabric that was used for the ottoman that we never ordered) was discontinued and no longer available for furniture production. ** suggested that we now choose another fabric for the chair and accent pillows and as a courtesy, 110 Home Furnishings would give us the ottoman for our patience and understanding for not having a living room set for almost five months.
I know absolutely nothing about interior decorating and design, but I do know that you do not have an ottoman that is a different color scheme from the rest of the furniture. When I stated this to **, he suggested that we take the ottoman and use it as a table? I said this was unacceptable. I also said that my wife and I had been more than patient while awaiting our order and that I would contact him in the next 48 hours if my wife and I wanted to continue doing business with 110 Home Furnishings, and if we would be coming back in to select a new fabric for the chairs and pillows that had not even been made even though it was over two months past the stated delivery time of eight to ten weeks.
My wife and I decided to not have any future dealings with 110 Home Furnishings the day that I went into their showroom (August 6, 2012). On the evening of August 7, 2012, my wife and I went to Raymour and Flanigan (another area furniture store) and purchased a living room set. It was delivered to our home 3 days later. On August 20, 2012, I received a resolution statement from American Express regarding the disputed charge of our living room furniture order from 110 Home Furnishings. The customer service manager ** wrote a letter to American Express stating that I would be in the showroom later this week to select a fabric, that I agreed with the salesman ** with their offer of giving me a free ottoman (which again, I never ordered in the first place) and I was satisfied with this proposal, and that I am prepared to schedule an immediate delivery of the furniture that was available and that I was happy to do so.
These are not exaggerations or misconstrued statements of the conversation that I had with the salesman ** - they are outright lies. I feel it's important to note that during my visit to 110 Home Furnishings on August 6, 2012 (in which I waited for over 30 minutes while ** checked the status of my order in a back office), I repeatedly asked other employees (** included) to speak with the customer service manager **. She remained in her office with the door shut the entire time and refused to come out to speak with me. Also, it was during this visit that I learned for the first time that not only was my order not completed, but that items that I never ordered (the ottoman) were charged to my order and that the fabric originally chosen is no longer available for our order.
It was almost five months after we placed our order and 110 Home Furnishings never contacted us about these problems. It was only when I was physically in their store that I learned of these problems. I have found 110 Home Furnishings treatment of my wife and I to be not only extremely rude and discourteous, but also unethical with regard to their blatant lies to American Express so that they could charge us the full amount of our order in the amount of $3,529.23 for furniture that we not only never received after five months, but that is not even constructed yet. Yesterday (August 20, 2012), I reopened the disputed charge with American Express because AMEX was under the assumption, based on **'s outright lies, that we had resolved the situation and we wanted furniture from 110 Home Furnishings. This is 100% not the case.
My wife and I have had a beautiful living room set in our home purchased from Raymour and Flanigan for almost a month now. It should also be noted that today (August 21, 2012), my wife and I have received several phone calls from 110 Home Furnishings. We refuse to answer or return these phone calls because I will not give this unethical business the opportunity to further misconstrue or make outright false statements regarding a conversation we may or may not have. Should you wish to contact me for further information or you would like copies of the documentation that I have regarding this matter, please feel free to do so. Thank you in advance for your time and consideration in this matter.
After one year, my guest bedroom set which was purchased at One Ten Furniture started to fall apart. The wood started to separate at certain places. They do not stand behind their furniture. They seem to make every excuse available. I absolutely do not recommend them.
I placed an order at 9 pm on Monday evening. At 10 am Tuesday, I decided against the purchase and called to cancel. Jennifer said that the order has not gone in and to wait until the sales person comes in on Thursday. I do not want to wait, I want a credit on my credit card. Jennifer refuses. I will never do business with them again.
I waited 5 months for a Natuzzi two-piece leather and recliner set. Both pieces were damaged, with leather scratches and peels all over and recliner sections do not line up. I spoke with the nasty Manager Jennifer who said I have to wait for a decision for repair or replace. Jennifer was very unaccommodating and rude.
I'm writing because I read all of the negative complaints about this store and I just wanted to be able to let future customers know about my positive experience.
This past February, I was shopping around to many stores in search of a leather sectional. One of the stores I went into was One Ten Home Furnishings. I spoke with one of the salespeople, who showed me around their very large, very attractive showroom. This person was very polite, knowledgeable and made me feel at home. Although I was given the lowest price of all my shopping, I told him I needed to go home to think about it for a bit.
When I got home, I went online and saw all the bad reviews about this store. I couldn't believe my eyes since I was already having such a great experience and I hadn't even made my purchase yet. Due to what I read online, I felt a little leery, so I came back in and spoke to the sales manager, Scott.
He was very professional and assured me that the amount of bad reviews was minimal compared to the amount of volume the store does. There are thousands of very satisfied customers who never write about their pleasant experience. That being said, I continued on with my purchase with One Ten Home Furnishings, since I did in fact feel so comfortable there.
My furniture came in exactly on time as promised, and it's as beautiful as I'd hoped. Upon delivery, I did notice there were 2 small scratches in the leather. I called the store right away and spoke to Jennifer, the customer service manager. She too was very polite and knowledgeable and assured me that it would be handled right away. She further advised me that I would receive a call from their service company within a couple of days to touch-up the scratches. The service company did just that, and it looks wonderful.
I highly recommend this store to anyone who needs to purchase furniture for their home. I had a great experience and look forward to doing business with One Ten Home Furnishings again soon.
We have been shopping for a new sectional and my girls room for a long time, we stumbled upon this store a few months ago. We had read some of the bad reviews for this store but did notice that the complaints seemed a long time ago. Luckily we did! Our furniture is beautiful, it came in before the time they quoted and the salesman was great. The follow-up customer service left nothing to be desired. I just wanted to post something besides complaints.
I have had the worst experience ever! I purchased an Ashley Brand sofa 8 weeks ago. When I first purchased this sofa, I paid in full on an Amex card. The very next day, I read complaints online. I started to get nervous about my purchase and realized paying in full for the sofa might not be a good idea. That day I went to get a refund on my credit card. I called Amex to dispute the charge. I kept checking with Amex to see if they gave me the credit. After 2 weeks, I called the store. By the way, my salesperson "Michael" was no longer working there. He left the very next day after I had made my purchase. That's was another red flag for me!
Finally after speaking with the manager, Scott, he refunded me $1100 leaving a $600 deposit on the card. I kept checking on the delivery and they kept saying that it's not in yet. After hearing from reliable friends in the furniture store business, I was told this company is on credit hold with all the furniture companies and that no one is shipping to them unless they pay their bills. That made a whole lot of sense to me because when I went to Ashley furniture stores and another local retail store they said I can have the sofa shipped to me in no more than 10 days.
Finally, the sofa comes today (8 weeks later)and it's missing 4 legs! It also looks like it was the showroom model! I was supposed to pay the balance of $1100 on arrival. When I saw it was missing the legs, I said I will pay $1000 and I am holding $100 until they send me the 4 feet it was missing. Jennifer, the very nasty girl in customer service that I have been dealing with refused to let me hold $100 until the feet arrived. She said she can take back the ottoman if I hold $200 and she will return it with the feet another day. The ottoman is worth $400. **, does she think I'm stupid! I said no!
She said if I hold the money, she will take the sofa back. I told her go ahead but if it leaves my home now, it's not coming back. The delivery men repacked the sofa and dragged it out of my basement. What a waste of time and money for them over a ** $100. I was holding $100 for the feet; if they sent me the feet I would have paid the $100. Does that make any sense? Obviously, they couldn't get them because it was the floor model. Luckily Amex assured me I will not have to pay a cent to them!
On 5/1/10, I placed a bedroom set order for my daughter. I was told 8-10 weeks for delivery. Around June 16-17th, I called just to get an idea as to how much longer. I was told that on June 24, it was leaving factory and to allow 2 weeks for shipment to arrive at their warehouse - it should arrive based by my calculations on July 8. On July 13th, I called and per conversation with Jennifer, allow another week. On July 22nd, I called and left a message since no one available to answer calls. On the 23rd, since no has called me by 5pm, I called and was told a shipment from that manufacturer came in but to call back tomorrow for more details.
I called next day (Sat) and was told that the warehouse closed and to call on Monday. I called on Monday, Jennifer said she will look into it and call me back by end of day. No return call. I called on Tuesday, July 27, and was told that it was not in the warehouse and that it should be any day if not by next week but no confirmed answer. So to date and this is now 5 days shy of being 3 months later, 12 weeks and still no furniture even in their warehouse. How much longer is a customer suppose to wait for a delivery? Even a special delivery I have never ever waited this long, 6-8 weeks was the most I have ever waited.
I am at my wits end with them and do not no what else to do. I was lucky I did not pay in full which they asked. I put down a 1/3rd deposit only of $406.69 leaving a balance of $1000 which must be paid at the time of delivery and by bank check, certified or money order, no personal checks. I could also pay by cash-. I'm not doing that, that will come back to haunt me. Please advise as to my next step. I am very tempted to ask you to get my deposit back and go else where but do not want to wait another 6-8 weeks for the furniture. My daughter really likes this set. I am tired of waiting and tired of getting the run around. All I know is I will never ever go back to this store again.
Being a single mom, I was fortunate enough to be able to sell the old bedroom set but had to let the buys take prior to July 4th due to they were moving. In the meantime all my daughter has to sleep on is her mattress without a box spring which I also purchased from this store. She is complaining of backache and such and is fed up herself and wants to know when this will be resolved as well. We have plans to go on vacation in mid August but will have to rearrange our plans if the furniture does not arrive immediately. I can only have delivery on a Saturday due to the fact I am unable to lose a days pay to wait around all day for a delivery during the week.
This does not give them much time to get the furniture to us and personally I do not think it will be here for another 2-3 weeks. That's my gut feeling. Please help. At this point in time, I would like to get compensated by them for all this aggravation this is causing me. Any financial assistance will be greatly appreciated due to economic times and being a single parent and all. I look forward to hearing from you soon. Thank you for listening to me. Help!
This is an amazing little company. They can beat almost any price on Rt 110. The only problem is when you put your money down, they could care less about you or your items. I purchased an item in mid-December. It is now mid-May and yes I am still missing items, still. They never call and they never respond to anything. Many people complain, but nothing ever gets done. Why do we even have a Better Business Bureau? Get rid of it. Maybe that will help the budget. Pay a little more for customer service anywhere else, a person to talk to, and just maybe get an answer.
I went in to buy furniture and paid for it in full. They said delivery would be in 2-3 weeks. 5 weeks later, still no furniture. I went back into store and sales person was rude and the manager even ruder. I did not have my receipt in hand and they said they could not help me and they could not look up my name or give me any information about this purchase. I regret buying this furniture and doing business with this horrible company. I have never been treated this badly. Buyer beware! Don't pay for your furniture in full, you will not get it in time. Their customer service is horrible and they do not deserve to be in business. Run from this company!
I purchased a dinette table in February 2009. The table had a built in storage leaf. The first time I used the leaf was this past August and when I opened it the holes did not line up with the leaf, therefore, the table would not close all the way. I called the store and they told me that they could not send service to fix it because in the interim I had moved and they said it could have been damaged during the move. I find this absolutely ridiculous. The holes are permanently drilled into the table and the track that opens and closes is in perfect working order so unless there was some type of magic I cannot see how the holes could possibly move when I relocated. I also went down to the store and spoke to a manager who told me the same thing, that there was nothing he could do. I think that this is very poor business. I spent alot of money for this table only to not be able to use the leaf. I think it's only right that they have a serviceman come out and fix the problem. (Just For your information, the furniture place will have me under my old address which was 6 Mott Place, Dix Hills NY 11746)
Seller reassured us of full stock on an item we bought and that he would not deliver the floor sample which was damaged. After I paid a $900 deposit fro the item that day, two weeks later same damaged floor sample item was delivered which I denied, withheld the balance of payment and did not accept installation. Upon speaking with the sales man shortly after, he insisted that I would speak with the boss? who was out of the country indefinitely, and no one in eh store knew his date of return. My initial payment of $900 is still with this company which they refuse to give back to me.
On Monday 11/12/2007 we ordered $3650 worth of bedroom furniture and were told we would get delivery on the 14th..two days later. we were told the bed might be 5-6 weeks. We still do not have the mens dresser or our bed. Our calls go unanswered and we are getting credit card bills. We are going on 17 weeks now and todays conversation with us they told us that they did not even know where our furniture was let alone a delivery date.
Placed order for furniture May 25, 2007. Cancelled order via phone May 26 and in person May 27, 2007. Manager wrote "credited to customer" on my original receipt and took it, claiming he had to give it to the bookkeeper and she would credit account when she came to work after Memorial Day holiday. In subsequent phone conversation, Art Eisenberg also stated a credit would be issued. I took him at his word but disputed charge when it was reinstated on my account.
I advised credit card company I no longer had a receipt and requested they obtain copy. I attempted to get a copy and was told by Mr. Eisenberg it would take at least a week. However when I called a week later he did not return my call. That is when I handed it over to my attorney. Credit card company was unable to obtain copy of contract until October 2007. Contract is dated May 25, 2005 and clearly states furniture was to be delivered in 2-3 weeks. I never received any furniture as the order was cancelled and the vendor has clearly broken contract since it is now over 6 months later. Mr. Eisenberg accepted payment from the credit card company without delivering or ever contacting me to try to deliver furniture. Credit card company has been attempting to collect from me. Why would I pay for merchandise I never received? Mr. Eisenberg promised to credit the $3,716.91 downpayment amount but has failed to do so.
110 Home Furnishings clearly breached the contract yet accepted funds from the credit card company and has not returned them. I attempted to speak to Mr. Eisenberg one more time via phone before Christmas. His reply - you're the one with an attorney - have your attorney contact my attorney and he hung up on me.
On July 1,2007 my husband and I purchased a sleeper sofa, love seat and a rocker/recliner. The sleeper sofa and love seat that we bought was white with brocaid. The rocker/recliner did not match the sleeper sofa and the love seat, but was to be white as well. On July 13th the furniture was delivered. It was not the set we purchased. The set we recieved was not the style nor color we picked out and paid for. The delivery man said to sign the papers and call the salesman Benny. I did as instructed.
When I spoke with Benny he tried to convince me to keep the set that was delivered by saying,"It's almost white". Then he asked me which set I ordered and said to come in and we would straighten it out. The next day my husband and I went back to the store and the set we ordered was not on the showroom floor anymore. The saleman Benny said "Show me the set". When we said it wasn't there anymore he said nothing on the showroom floor has been changed and they never had a white set on the showroom floor. When I pointed out that there was different furniture on the floor, he then reneged and said that there was one different set. When we pointed out that if fact there was a different set where the one we picked out was, he said "I'm not going to argue with you" and walked out of the store.
We asked for the manager and were told he's not there. We found out his name is Jay and my husband placed 3 calls to Jay and never received a call back.
August 26, 2006Fabio D Accio
A pleasant shopping and purchasing experience has gone sour. And, I want the problem corrected immediately. I was cheated!
I was extremely apprehensive about transacting a $4134.27 purchase with a
non chain retailer but as a result of a seemingly pleasant sales associate,
we proceeded with our purchase. We purchased a RALPH style couch from RETAILER: _RTE 110 HOME FURNISHING GALLERIES.
The couch arrived and although the color is attractive as well as the
feel of the couch, the quality of workmanship is poor.!!! Allow me to
be more precise? the workmanship stinks . The couch appears years old,
it appears worn and in certain areas it appears unfinished. The stuffing/padding is extremely inadequateThe aforemented defects are clearly visible by all that
view the couch Your staff of workers must be blind
My transaction was based on the showroom sample as well as the picture shown on your web site. It is deceitful. Extremely deceitful and I will not allow this problem to be ignored.
I phoned the retailer to advise the problem and a padder phoned days later
( a little too late to my liking .) Since I was unable to speak I requested he phone again . He did days later spoke with my husband and jumped over the same afternoon, (at the padders convenience,,, certainly not mine I was at work)
My husband, as brilliant as he is, does not have an eye for furniture. His sight is poor and seemingly does not have an eye for many things nowadays. He had no idea where the padding was needed. He left that up to the padder I assume. The padder either was in a tremendous hurry or he too, is blind. Clearly there are areas of the couch that are so very under stuffed one must wonder what gives with Natuzzi employees.. Clearly, your ________________ are just words
The padder (must have) should have seen areas where additional stuffing
is needed of course, that is, if the padder is a professional ,and one would assume you would hire only a professional (of course, now I wonder.) He stuffed one tiny corner of a corner and ran. The retailer was phoned the next day to request the return of the padder to correct the problems . And, it was mentioned to the retailer we would like the padder to schedule his work time when I am home to direct him accordingly. The store advised my husband no one would be returning as he signed off on the job. Actually, what my husband thought he was signing was a confirmation that the padder showed up. What guile, incredibleEven if he signed off, you offer a warranty.
Poor workmanship is what was delivered to me and I want the problems
corrected or come get your product out of my home. I am a valued consumer, paid my money and want to be satisfied.. I am so angry over this I will not let it rest
until the couch looks like the one I ordered and paid for !
Your finished product does NOT, in any way, compare or represent the showroom
sample I based my purchase on nor does it represent your web site view of many
finished pieces. THE COUCH LACKS STUFFING plus.It SAGS in many areas. It is not a quality product.. You are misrepresenting your product and I am outraged.
I want this corrected to my satisfaction. I paid for it.. !!!!
On January 2, 2005 I made a purchase of a dinning set (1 brown table and 6 black chairs) for a total amount of $2,171.41 including delivery (Store Invoice Number 30696). I left a deposit for $800.00 paid by American Express credit card. On March 14, 2006 (two weeks later of the original delivery day) we received all the items but chairs were brown instead of black as we originally ordered. I was about to refuse the delivery until my order will be completely fulfilled per original request but Jennifer, customer service manager as she introduced herself over the phone, acknowledging a mistake promised to replace the chairs and told me that the order will be placed immediately and I should receive them within few weeks.
A delivery person made a note on the invoice that it was paid in full and I accepted brown chairs as loaners until replacement chairs will arrive. After few weeks from March 14 I started to make calls asking for Jennifer who repeatedly ignored my calls and my massages. When I was lucky to get her on a phone she was telling me that she is monitoring the order and chairs should be in New York soon with no more details. On May 22, 2006 Jennifer simply transferred my call to Mona at extension 116, who introduced herself as a customer service manager and told me that chairs on its way to New York by container and soon should be in New York but could not say how soon. Since than I made number of calls to Mona who gave me few more reasons why she cant provide with information about my order.
Now the reason was different - the file with my invoice was at the storeowners desk and Mona simply did not know what was happening with my chairs. On my requests to speak with the storeowner I was repeatedly told that the owner is not at the store. On June 23, 2006 and made my last call to the store and was informed by another person that 4 black chairs left the factory June 22 (!) and two more hand chairs on a back order. At that point I had all reasons to believe that the store representatives repeatedly provided me with incorrect information trying to avoid the fulfillment of their obligation. As of today I did not get ANY replacement chairs and received no calls from the store. Please help.
We ordered a couch, love seat and 2 wing back chairs on Septemer 20th, 2005. On November 18th I went to the store to get a swatch of material so I could order my window treatment. On 11/21/05 I was informed that the material was discontinued and I would have to pick out a different fabric. When I was at the store the swatch was missing therefore, I must assume that someone in the store took it out but never bothered to check to see if anyone had ordered that fabric.
I was told at that time by Ed that I would still get my furniture in the alloted time frame which was 8 to 12 weeks. When the time came I called to find out if my furniture was being delivered on time and was told it would not be until the end of January 06. This was after numerouse phone calls that were never returned. I had to make another trip to the store to find this out. January came and went and still no furniture. It finally arrived on February 16th. The legs on the chairs were the wrong color. They were supposed to be maple and were dark wood instead. The pillows were also wrong, which they have since replaced. This was the most unprofess-ional company I have ever dealt with. They did not have the common courtesy of returning a phone call or being honest.
On July 6th of 2002 I went to the store to purchase my couch. It would be a few months before I recieved it, which is not a problem. I recieved my couch on Oct. 19th of 2002. When the delivery people was setting them up I noticed a few things wrong with it, they told me to call the store.**(see bottem) I called and left a message on the store machine and a few days later I spoke to Jennifer West in customer service. She told me to make a list and to call their service repair which is Nuteriors 516-616-1000 and that they would send out someone to fix the problems. A representive came out to my home a few weeks later and took pictures of the things I found wrong and told me that they would get back to me.
On Dec.23rd a repair appointment was set up to fix the problems but I had to cancel due to a death in the family. It was rescheduled for January 9th. The service man came to my home and was here for over 7 hours fixing the couch. At the time he left I was very busy getting things together for my family that I didnt pay close attention to the finished work., Soon after I noticed that things were worse and he didnt complete things.**(see bottem) I called the service repairs and was spoken to very rudly and was told that I should have let the repair man know at the time that I was unhappy about the repairs done. Thru out this process I play phone tag with the store and it could be days later before anyone contacts me.
A new repair day was scheduled but the service man never showed up. I again call the store and wait for someone to call me back. I take a ride to the store and spoke to my sales person Iris and she was pleasant and told me that she would get together with Jennifer to figure out what could be done.
Few days later I get a phone call from
Jennifer and she seemed abit annoyed that I went to the store to speak to Iris. I complained that I was very unhappy on how I was being treated and how the couch looked. I told her that I wanted a representive to come to my home and look at my couch that the floor model was in better shape than my couch. That this is not what I paid for. She told me that they dont have Natuzzi reps. to come out to the home,that they have to do things with this repair company and would have to see the pictures of my couch. The repair man than came to my home on March 8th and was here for over 2 hours refixing the items. **(see bottem)He wouldnt fix a big problem with the recliner saying that if he fixs it that something in the back of tha couch wouldnt line up. He than again took more pictures to get autorization to fix it. At this points I was mad, I called the store and wanted to speak to my sale person only to hear on the recording that she was on vacation so I let a message with the store manager to called me back. This was on Sat. March 8th. No one called and again on Monday I called again and left a message with the manager and no one called me back.
Finally on Wednesday I called and left a message with customer service that It was my third time calling that I ws at the point that they could come pick up my couch and refund my money. At no one time was I ever nasty or rude when dealing with anyone. I have been very calm and understanding. Later that day someone named Heather called and was very sorry to hear of my problems and told me that best thing was to talk with my sales person Iris and that she was the one to deal with it. I asked her to let Iris know to please call me on Monday of the following week when she got back from vaction she promised that she would and also gave me Iris's work schedule because I wanted to go to the store and compare my couch to the floor sample and show them pictures of my couch that I took. On Monday no one called, I got a phone call from Jennifer on Wednesday and she told me that she was looking at the picture of my couch that the service repairman took, and that my couch look fine to her. I told her I was very unhappy on how my couch looked and that I would bring in my pictures that I took on Thursday when Iris would be in.
On Thursday March 20th I dropped off my picture with Iris and she agreed that there were problems with my couch. She told me that she couldnt do anything without a Natuzzi rep. would have to look at my couch. Which I asked for that to be done way back when and was told that they didnt do that. Any way I left the store with the understanding that she would give Jennifer the pictures on Friday to see and that Jennifer would call me , being she was going on medical leave and couldnt help me that she would be out for 3-4 weeks. That was on Thurs. March 20th. As of Wednesday March 26th, I havent heard from anyone. I called the store on Tuesday and left a message with
Jennifer and I am still waiting for her to call me back.I am at my last straw now I want results.
1. Purchased a wine rack $888.62 - Deposit $300.00 10/9/00. 2. Merchandise not delivered within ten weeks. 3. 12/4/00 contacted Manager Matt Schiff said he would call back next day concerning furniture.

Last year, the state legislature in Tennessee overrode Gov. Phil Bredesen's veto of a bill that would have allowed gun owners to carry their weapons into any restaurant except those whose predominant business was to serve alcohol. After the law "was later declared unconstitutionally vague," Bredesen is currently deciding whether to veto a new bill state legislators passed this year that has "no exclusions for where guns can be carried, as long as permit holders don't consume alcohol."
But other state measures have the potential to go a bit further. Virginia Gov. Bob McDonnell (R) recently signed a bill into law that allows "concealed carry permit holders to bring loaded guns" into bars. But the local gun lobby is trying to get it changed so they will also be allowed to consume alcohol. And in Georgia, the state house recently passed a bill would make it "legal to enter a bar or restaurant with a licensed concealed weapon and get drunk," as long as the individual doesn't fire the weapon.
This weekend at the NRA's annual conference in Charlotte, NC, ThinkProgress asked NRA members about the wisdom of these state measures. One woman said she is "not a person who drinks" and therefore thought "concealed carry should extend to commercial establishments too," including bars. When ThinkProgress asked her if people carrying guns into bars should be able to drink alcohol, the woman replied, "No." Reactions from other members were a bit more definitive:
— NRA MEMBER 1: You shouldn't go get drunk and go even target shooting or something, it impairs your judgement. … It's a rule of thumb, alcohol and guns don't mix.
— NRA MEMBER 2: It's probably not the best mix. … I think if you have a place where people might get out of hand with the alcohol, if they do go in with arms it needs to be taken away. They need to set it aside.
— NRA MEMBER 3: That's probably not the best idea…allowing people to bring guns into bars and drinking.
— NRA MEMBER 4: I can understand not…carrying while you're drinking.
Watch the video compilation:
According to one Tennessee GOP representative, the NRA threatened to withdraw endorsements if legislators voted against the bill allowing residents to carry guns in bars. "This line of reasoning borders on lunacy," he said, adding, "What line will we not cross for the NRA? At what point do we say that's too much?"
A recent poll also found that 56 percent of gun owners said that retail establishments should establish a strict "no guns" policy for their business.
