Trying to locate an item that I purchased in South Burlington, VT

AI Highlights
  • - The staff were unavailable to answer a question about an emergency necklace.
  • - I was disconnected after saying I wasn't interested in buying.

Im very disappointed in AMS that they were not available to answer a question. I had not called to buy an emergency response necklace I called to ask about a product that I have already bought and was able to get any more and how it would go about that because the store that I purchased them from is in Burlington, Vermont and I live in Connecticut.

Im very disappointed that there was no buddy to talk to.

Ive always loved Easter Mountain sports products but I think the way that these phone call was answered is totally unaccepted acceptable because as soon as I said, I was not interested in buying that product. I got basically disconnected I would have to to say to future customers that that they need to possibly reevaluate EMS no opportunity to talk to anyone and that really saddens me.

There was no way to contact EMS, the web page was out of date and non functional, and my item was actually shipped from another vendor.

Ill be better able to answer if I get my refund. They did send a shipping label, although the cost will be deducted from my refund. My purchase was shipped expeditiously, so kudos for that.

Wrong-side zipper on both coats. Bogus customer service phone contact.

Why do you need me to say more? Poorest service ever.

Preferred solution: explanation and possibly credit for cost of replacing zippers

User's recommendation: avoid

Life Time Guarantee

I purchased an EMS expedition tent approximately 10 years ago. I purchased it because it had a lifetime guarantee.

Now that EMS has been taken over by another company they have chosen not to honor the lifetime guarantee. I think that is wrong.

User's recommendation: Don't shop at EMS under the new owners.

Gift card

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
Contacted the company first

The reviewer tried to contact the company before posting this review.

AI Highlights
  • - Gift card wouldn't work online; the CT number was out of order, and a Hadley EMS employee was nice.
  • - $104 lost; only last two years' cards are valid.

I called the gift card number about using my gift card online. The number the agent gave me to call customer service in CT was out of order.

Waste of time.

I called a random EMS store in Hadley (the guy was very nice). He told me the gift card wouldn't work ($104) because the last two years are the only gift cards valid to use since the bankruptcy.

So I'm out $104.

I'll be sure to tell friends and family this company is terrible!

Loss:
$104

Preferred solution: Full refund

User's recommendation: Don’t waste your time or money!
