I walked in to Kroner after going to several other granite/quartz counter top places in the area and found a color that I absolutely loved, but was only sold by the whole slab. I left, shopped around a bit more got some quotes, went back to Kroner got a written quote on June 16th for 2091.73 which was almost 1000.00 cheaper than another place. I was really shocked, I asked the guy if he was sure that was the right price. He assured me it was. Because of the cost and only needing a small 5 foot piece, I decided to go home and think about it. My quote was good for 30 day anyway. I went back on July 9th to purchase it. I had to sign a six page contract of all their terms and conditions which included a all sales are final clause and a clause on if I do not pay a lien against my property would be likely. I signed everything knowing I made a decision to purchase the slab and was ready to bite the bullet so to speak. Moving forward, documents were signed, everything was good to go. I even repeated the story abut the place that was going to charge 1000 more...still no red flags went off for this guy to take a second look at the quote. The next day I got a call stating I was misquoted and they would need to charge me 800.00 MORE. Ummm, no, sorry but I signed a contract for 2091.73 not 2891.73. I told the salesperson I had to think about this and I would call back. I called back maybe 30 minutes later and spoke to the supposed manager and told her, this was unacceptable and if it were my mistake I would end up having to pay. She informed me that the contract was less than 48 hours old and that she could not honor it. Really?? I'm pretty sure once a contract is signed it is binding at that time not 48 hours later. We went back and forth with her absolutely not wanting to go by what the contract was for. She ended up saying she would look for a remnant to give her 48 hours. I did, she called back with no success. So being slightly stupid and really wanting the slab, I said that I would pay 400 more even though it wasn't my mistake and that the company should comp the rest. This was still not good enough for her. She offered a 100 compensation or to refund me. She said she couldn't do more, she would be losing money. I know that was a crock of crap and said I would get back to her. About an hour later, I get a call from the sales person who did the contract and he told me that they fired him over this, but before he left he wanted to be the one to say they were willing to take an additional 200 off. For real, how professional is that...lets have your fired salesperson call and tell me about his untimely firing. Really!! I then had to give this poor young salesperson a boost up and let him know everyone makes mistakes and that it is unfortunate that he does not work for a company that supports and trains their staff appropriately. Moving forward, I went in for the refund on july 13th. I will admit, I was not happy and quite sarcastic. However, this lady took it to another level. She said that I pressured the salesperson to that price. Yeah, that never happened. She pointed to her cameras and I told her,please lets review them cause quite frankly I was texting most of the time he was filling out the contract. Her comments were completely ridiculous and unfounded. Needless to say, I asked for a copy of the receipt from the refund. I took it and left. On Saturday, I realized the money was not credited back to my account. I decided to wait until Monday, 7/16, before I said anything. I got back out my receipt and realized the credit back said transaction declined...that one was on me. I didn't look at it before I left Kroner on Friday. Anyway, today I called and told them the transaction didn't go through and gave them a few hours to resolve the issue. Nope, they didnt!! I went in there at the end of their business day and she had the nerve to tell me she would need to call the bank and would do so tomorrow. The receipt says declined...ummm, yeah, you didn't enter the transaction correctly. I told her she had plenty of time to have done that today and that I would expect her to do it at 9 tomorrow morning that I had other people that I had to pay for the job. She said she had other customers too and would let me know once she does it. I suspect she will wait til days end as that is the kind of sketchy shady business they have going on!! There are so many good places to go in the area, stay away from this place!! read more
