Report
Our cat dies a few years ago and we purchased a memorial piece. We since moved and recently we asked if they were able to send it in the mail. As we are about an hour drive away. They we insisted we pay for shipping which is understandable however, they then told me it was our responsibility to set up the shipment. Who had time for that? We paid a… ridiculous amount for the piece and now this? It seems as though they got paid their money and so customer service and being decent are not a priority to them. I will be making the drive eventually, but will never be trusting these people with
