We will not only guarantee the items will work like we say they will, we guarantee to make every effort to make sure you are happy. We cannot make everyone happy and we're not "perfect" at doing so in some situations. As long as you promise to be patient with us if there is an issue, we will work it out with you for sure. <-- this is what I'm saying."

Ive seen them make situations right before, but it did seem to cause the customer some grief and a headache in the process which should have been avoided on umnitzas end to begin with.
We promise to continue to strive to do better.

Its up to us to decide if the savings outweigh the potential for mishaps and if we are willing to deal with them

nobody is forcing to buy from any vendor, people do so willingly because they want the parts bad enough
Some customers and competitors like to state that Umnitza is a bad company with lots of complaints and poor customer service.
Yes, we get complaints. And I do take them seriously when they arise, but we are looking to prevent them.

I would like to add a little perspective as well and hopefully point out a statistic that will help people realize that our complaint levels are actually pretty low in comparison to our sales volume. We get a few complaints and returns per week. Unlike say a McDonalds, O'Reilly Auto Parts, or AutoZone, ours are usually posted, often very angrily, on the internet, where they fester for months at a time and stew maintain an impression that isn't a full picture of who we are. Often, a customer will post a complaint, be contacted and asked why the complaint wasn't brought to our attention, then never follow up with an update stating we fixed the issue.

These complaints are quite often fed by feedback from the same customers and competitors, their fan boys and people who just like to contribute, often spiraling a situation that can be resolved amicably out of control. If your fries were too cold or salty, or your AutoZone part didn't fit perfectly, you'd go back to the store, but the way the internet works, and internet retailing, it doesn't work well sometimes. I can assure those of you that have visited our store know that we do everything in our power to ensure the proper satisfaction of our customers, often donating our time, staying late, performing free labor and diagnostics, and handling exchanges without any hassle. This is the side that cannot be shown on the internet, but I can assure you that we've been in business for over 10 years now, and we can't be 'all bad'.


I'm not excusing our poor performance on some customer complaints, we will continue to strive to do better! But I am trying to put things in perspective and explain things a bit better. If this makes you look at us better, thank you. If it doesn't, maybe one day we will change your mind.

customer service - touchy feely stuff we're not good at........ My man, you need a marketing director. You never go public with negative expressions of your company or yourself. Unless your just giving up?
