Verified Reviewer New ReviewerProblem with order
I called Sailrite before I put in an order for 2 yds Tommy Bahama Palmiers Riptide 54" fabric. I told them that I wanted the fabric rolled and not folded and they told me anything over 1 yd of fabric would be rolled. I placed an order online right after I hung up. I received the fabric today folded in 12x14 plastic envelope. $15 shipping I paid. Very disappointed and would like a response of how you will handle this. Sales order# SO117**** Sales invoice# CS114**** Customer#. C907867 Cathy Sawchuck

Long nosed stapler will not drive staples
Ordered Part # 121411 long nosed stapler for upholstery, set my compressor @ 70psi (recommended by Sailrite) equipped with #8010GZ 3/8" staples. Would only drive staples 1/2 way; increased PSI to 100--no difference--increased to 125--no change. Went back to my regular stapler- worked perfect. Unfortunately I was away and missed my 1-month return window, and am stuck with $100.00 worth of something I can't use. Can only use Sailrite staples. I was working on a soft wood chair ; cloth upholstery--not a hard wood. To any one thinking of purchasing this gun for upholstery--DO NOT!!!!! Might work for leather or vinyl car seats?????????
User's recommendation: Don't waste your money.

Petty and short sighted
Last week I ordered legs for a sewing machine table. I opted not to purchase the whole kit as I have the materials for the top and the tools/skills to make one in my shop. When I received the legs I noticed no little rubber feet that the video showed for the complete kit. I called and asked about this and was told the little rubber feet were extradited another 9 bucks please. Wow, talk about petty and short sighted. I asked if they could provide a schematic for the top and was told no as it was an "active number," and "we don give out this information." What nonsense. Here I spend $165 for the legs and they can't help me complete the project because they are trying to do what, protect some sort of trade secrets. Ridiculous.

Rude and condescending personal. Would not honor shipping cost advertised on amazon. They charged me triple the amount for shipping and did not take responsibility for incorrect advertising.

Review in Shopping category from New Haven, Connecticut
I ordered time-sensitive items for an important client, requesting and paying Sailrite for "2 Day Priority Shipping." Over a week later, the tracking numbers indicated my shipment was delayed and is still in Indiana! So, I contacted Sailrite Customer Service and was appalled by their condescending attitude and unhelpful reply. With poor spelling and grammatical errors, it was inferred that I was somehow ignorant for not knowing that "2 Day Priority" really means up to 10 "business days" (Translation: 2+ calander weeks !!!) And read the fine print of their terrible refund policy: Even if, through no fault of my own, the package arrives late or damaged, all shipping fees (including return postage) will be deducted from my refund. Wow! Caveat emptor -- Let the buyer beware!

Putting Us at risk of loosing $15,000 project
Ordered a fabric from them on May 1, couldn't stress the fact that it was a rush job and we needed that ASAP. Someone took our order, we were told we should receive it in 3-5 business days only to get an apology e-mail after 6 days stating that the fabric is in a back order and will be shipped by the 15th. The deadline for the project to be finished was the 17th. Thank you Sailrite! For putting us at risk of loosing a new client that we are trying to establish a relationship with. For putting us at risk not completing the project on time and loosing $15,000 just on that job. For putting us through extra stress and expenses for overnight delivery from someone else that could actually deliver. And while you were apologetic on the phone that means nothing for my business. Business is business and it's wrong on your part to making my company look it's build of empty promises where I can't deliver what I promised and making an *** out of me in front of my client. Good work Sailrite...NOT!

Sailrite has abusive business practices
Of the two orders placed at Sailrite--they made shipping errors on both. The first error was just time consuming (had to send a bolt of the wrong colored fabric back and then wait for the correct color to be resent). The second was stressful and is still unresolved. On 1/21/2010, we placed an order with Sairite for various materials. Prior to placing our order, we contacted Sailrite and communicated with Tona in customer service regarding the ease of shipping an order to Mexico. We were assured that there would be no problem in meeting our deliver requirements, so we went ahead and placed an expedited order to ship to the marina we were at in Baja. We paid extra shipping fees to ensure the delivery date of our order. When it did not arrive, as scheduled, we were notified by UPS that the item count and the packing slip did not match the inventory in the package. We were advised that UPS could not forward our package because it would not pass through customs for this reason. When we contacted Sailrite on 1/27/2010 to seek assistance in this matter, Sailrite's customer service representative Lisa then advised us that they have had problems shipping to Mexico and that Tona gave us bad information. This unprofessional approach was especially frustrating when Lisa refused to directly answer our questions and passed us off to the shipping manager, Pat, for follow-up. Pat could not identify the error and seemed quite content to put us off for several days until she could look into it. She insisted that they made no error, even after UPS confirmed the exact nature of the problem caused by Sailrite. Ultimately, this petty denial of liability and lack of ability to resolve the matter without the owners intervention, has caused serious financial losses and a major deviation in our itinerary. We still have not received this order or a response indicating when it would arrive at the marina. When our order was placed on the 21st of this month, we paid additional shipping to have it delivered within 3 days, which would have given us a delivery date of around the 25th or 26th of January. As a result of the errors and lack of appropriate responsiveness, we have paid $65 a day (in slip fees) to wait for this package since 1/27/2010. Five days later, it is no longer cost effective to remain indefinitely waiting for this package to arrive. $325 later, the expense to wait for the package has exceeded the value of the package, including shipping. We have been treated rudely from Sailrite and UPS indicates that Sairite should have properly package the order for international shipping. Since Sailrite will not give us a date as to when someone will get back with us, we have no choice but to claim this grievance with Sailrite, since they took our money and did not deliver the goods at all. Sairite seems to have serious issues within the shipping department which have escalated to abusive business practices. Ideally, we would like our $325 in slip fees reimbursed to us for the unnecessary time we have spent waiting for this package to arrive. We cannot put a price on missing out sailing with our friends for two weeks at Turtle Bay. We have filed a dispute and fraud claim with our credit card company against Sailrite. Conversations with Pat from shipping and Lisa from customer service have indicated that we must wait until the owners are back from respective illness and business travel before we will be addressed. E-mails with various staff at Sailrite confirm that they do not acknowledge the urgency of this matter, nor the travel and financial implications here. Additionally, they do not say when anyone who can help us will be back in the office. When we did get a brief e-mail response from owner, Matt Grant, he was defensive and refused to accept that his company could make such an error. CUSTOMER SERVICE IS NOT A PRIORITY WITH SAILRITE! Clearly the owner thinks he has the corner on this market. Let's get the word out and show that the consumer matters and has a voice.
