Iguana Sell Reputation Inquiry

Recommended Posts

I bought an expensive watch from them and their service, especially when I had to send it in, was exceptional (as was the initial price of the watch)

I also have had positive experiences with Iguana Sell, but through eBay. My first "direct" website purchase has resulted in the ol' bait 'n switch, or the "we discovered it's not available."

 

The thing that really irked me about this transaction is that it is my own fault.

 

I broke my own rule of ordering direct to a website without going through their eBay store for a hopefully positive experience. Yes it's a small item, a Visconti Dreamtouch three pen case, to which they offered me a three pen silk case in silk or the double Visconti or the single Visconti leather cases. This happened after they've processed the transaction.

 

Ridiculous!

 

By, still, it is my own fault; I should have bought it from Cool-Japan's eBay store - Atsu's transactions are flawless.

 

Why on earth would I want a double or single pen case when I have a three pen set I wanted together? Why would I want a silk case when I ordered leather? In any case, I replied back that I want both double and single Visconti cases for the transaction if they can't fill the order.

 

Iguana Sell, please make this right and restore my faith :gaah:

I checked out this thread before buying a Namiki Emperor Toryumon from Iguana Sell and can now add that their customer service really is excellent: they absolutely went above and beyond for me. I would definitely buy from them again without hesitation.

      I have the Sailor Naginata and some fancy blade nibs coming after 2022 by a number of new workshop from China.  With all my respect, IMHO, they are all (bleep) in doing chinese characters.  Go use a bush, or at least a bush pen.

      It is the reason why I'm so keen on the idea of a personal library — of pens, nibs, inks, paper products, etc. — and spent so much money, as well as time and effort, to “build” it for myself (because I can't simply remember everything, especially as I'm getting older fast) and my wife, so that we can “know”; and, instead of just disposing of what displeased us, or even just not good enough to be “given the time of day” against competition from >500 other pens and >500 other inks for our at

      Agreed.  And I think it’s good to be aware of this early on and think about at the point of buying rather than rationalizing a purchase..

      Alas, one cannot know “good” without some idea of “bad” against which to contrast; and, as one of my former bosses (back when I was in my twenties) used to say, “on the scale of good to bad…”, it's a spectrum, not a dichotomy. Whereas subjectively acceptable (or tolerable) and unacceptable may well be a dichotomy to someone, and finding whether the threshold or cusp between them lies takes experiencing many degrees of less-than-ideal, especially if the decision is somehow influenced by factors o

      I got my first real fountain pen on my 60th birthday and many hundreds of pens later I’ve often thought of what I should’ve known in the beginning. I have many pens, the majority of which have some objectionable feature. If they are too delicate, or can’t be posted, or they are too precious to face losing , still they are users, but only in very limited environments..  I have a big disliking for pens that have the cap jump into the air and fly off. I object to Pens that dry out, or leave blobs o
