I would rather cut off all of my fingers then use this place again.
I've had glass cut for many projects before (mirror, large and small pieces for frames, table tops) at different shops and never had a bad experience before. Recently I moved and was looking for a new place to do my glass. I saw a guy on the elevator in my building who was wearing a Parthenon Glass jacket. He was pretty cranky, which should have been my first clue, but he gave me their card and I figured I would give them a shot. How big a deal can getting glass cut be?
Had 2 small pieces of glass to have cut for table tops. Had to come back 3 times because they kept messing up. The woman who works there, Anna, was extremely unpleasant. Really bad customer service, really bad communication. She kept neglecting to tell me things and then yelling at me "Dan't ewe spick eenglish?!".
I was getting really frustrated so I asked for a refund so I could go some place else, but I had paid cash because their credit card machine wasn't working so she wouldn't give it to me, even with the receipt.
When my stuff was finally ready to pick up, it wasn't wrapped up and she wouldn't wrap it for me. She said nobody was there to do it. Keep in mind that these are not large pieces, only about 16x16. They had a roll of brown paper out, but she refused to do it, so I had to put 2 freshly cut pieces of glass in my car with nothing to protect them from breaking or scratching.
I got them home and they weren't even cut right. At this point I will just go out of my way to use one of the places I've gone to before. read more
