Got service or not?
Missing pliers in new tool kit, but shop says no exchange

STOMPer Jane discovered a pair of pliers missing from the new 8-piece pliers set she just bought, but was told by the shop that no exchange was allowed after purchase.

The STOMPer said:

"I bought a packet of 8-piece pliers from a Crystal Beads shop (near California Fitness) at Novena Square.

"I didn't check the contents because I was told it was all new.

"I went back home and discovered there were only 7 pliers in the pack instead of 8.

"I went back to the shop the next evening to ask for an exchange and was told by the shop that anything sold out of the shop was deemed as having been checked prior to the purchase!

"The shop could not account for it and no exchange was allowed.

"I felt so shortchanged for spending S$75.

"What kind of customer service are we talking about here?

"The third photo shows a slot meant for the missing item (1st item from the right was not there)."

Report to CASe, it is a jobs to refund if you have not steal it. Sorry for my side of story to be neutral. Price is too expensive for this plier, maybe some good material like stainless steel ?

$75 per set? I think that missing piece must be gold plated.

Hi Jane, you asked for it in every step of your transaction, so stop screaming your head off.

The onus lies on you to check. Didn't do it? Too bad. The shop has got to protect itself too. How we know you didn't take out the screwdriver?
