However, the "few and far between" is a prescriptive that heavily influences the average hammer price, so that all but the moneyed classes are barred full participation. As a consequence, it is mostly a venue for the nouveau riche to broadcast their wealth to their social subset. If you come here with the hopes of making a purchase, you're going to discover just where you reside on the socio-economic dividing line with the force of a cudgel to the head. However, this is a fantastic place to bring your items in order to flense the overly eager-but unsophisticated-parvenus.

I wrote a review on the old page, then told Yelp HD of the new address. === Crystal World is a wholesaler of crystal lighting, such as chandeliers, table lamps, wall light fixtures, etc. It is also in the business of wedding decor rental. You can rent directly from them, bypassing any middlemen or wedding planners. Since CW is a wholesaler, I didn't buy directly from it, but instead through one of its distributors. I like a few things about buying Crystal World products: 1) CW is a big wholesaler. Its distributors range from independent boutiques to chained stores (eg Living Lighting) to big boxers (eg Home Depot). I like the assurance that a wholesaler of this scale can provide, such as warranty 2) CW's warehouse is local. Unless an item is out of stock, customers usually get the lights they order in a week. No need to pay then wait 2 months to pick up your goods 3) I bought from a small lighting retailer just 10 minutes drive from CW's head office. My selection was not limited to the samples hung on the ceiling. I was allowed to select ANY LIGHT FROM SIX CATALOGUES. I felt like I was shopping from the wholesaler's warehouse. Though some selections were not what I was looking for, I nevertheless appreciated the freedom to choose. The shopping experience, unusually so for lighting fixtures, was liberating, fast, and one-stop-shopping convenient. 4) The built quality is okay enough. What we bought is no European light fixture, but it is good enough. And pretty enough. I can't comment much on prices, because it depends on where you buy from. Some stores let you negotiate, while some don't.

Worst experience ever…read more Went online during the dip. Liked the prices, made a small test order ($3000) on the website then another $5000 order when the price went up a week later. (It's lower now than when I ordered the 2nd order so they benefited more from simply fulfilling the order). EVERYTHING I ordered was marked as "IN STOCK" and NOT labeled as "pre-order of any sort. Paid both via Credit card because the two options were Credit card or E-transfer. I would normally do an e-transfer but clicking on the Credit card option didn't appear to have any extra fees attached. I paid exactly what was requested on the invoice (both times) and was sent a receipt via email for exactly what I paid for. Those amount were confirmed to be deducted from my Credit card. (only to see when I went online to check the shipping time on my account since it was delayed did I see a 3.75% processing fee still outstanding. (about $300.00) NOTHING is noted during this online purchase about any added fees.... and they didn't calculate it into my payment on my invoice so I have no clue what that's all about. Well, I emailed several times but they never reply. I called and they answered only to find out why my items were a month late. First time they answered with a "hello" leading me to believe I called a person rather than an official professional business. I was told some of the items were never in stock but were a "pre-order" and they had no idea when those items are coming in...... They wanted me to cancel my order (twice) but since I bought at the best time (for the first order at least) I just wanted them to send me the equivalent ounce value of what they actually DO have in stock at that moment. I told them to email me a list of what's in stock, I will choose new silver (and gold) and they can send that out. I also sent this request via email so they have my contact info. This is all after waiting almost a month for my order to go from "pending" to out for delivery (which didn't happen). What they did next was simple CANCEL my orders. No contact, No emails, No messages, no phone calls. No contact whatsoever. Not even a return on my Credit card yet. (which happened a few days later). They just cancelled my orders. All in all. Worst experience buying bullion so far. This was a TEST order. I have made and will make much larger orders, just never again with this unprofessional "business". They clearly failed the test....

After all the drama, they sent technician but the machine still did not work after a week trying to fix it. We nicely asked to have it returned and refunded but denied (after all the expense and stress to get it delivered and installed). We are in process to bring Liquidatorz to to court get it returned and refunded.
