I don't even know where to begin. It should be "NO STARS"!! I started using W.B. Mason after Rubenstein's in Pennsylvania sold to them. When I was with Rubenstein's, my orders were prompt, correct and was able to track. No worries whatsoever. Then W.B. Mason took over Rubenstein's clients, it all went down from there.
I usually placed my orders through the web and most items would say "Next Day Delivery". Well to say the least, that never happened. I usually had to follow up with an email asking where my order was and I would get the excuse that my order was coming from a warehouse further away. Then due to Covid, deliveries are now taking anywhere from 1 to 3 business days instead of the "Next Day Delivery" as promised when I placed the order. I told the Rep that the website needs to be updated accordingly, she acted as if it was no big deal, well when you need paper, it is a big deal.
The straw that broke the camel's back for me was when I placed an order for paper and post it notes on March 06, 2023, and had many broken promises. First, it's on the delivery truck and I will have it by March 10, 2023. Due to Covid, deliveries take a couple of additional days. The old "Covid Excuse", AGAIN! No Show on March 10, 2023. Another email on March 13, 2023, Rep stated that she will call the warehouse and get an ETA, still no information. On March 14, 2023, literally out of paper and had to run to the local supply store and pick up several reams. Sent another email, still waiting to hear from the warehouse for an ETA. I finally sent another email to cancel the order. It was cancelled on March 15, 2023. I placed the identical order with Office Depot/Office Max on the afternoon of March 15, 2023 and it was delivered on March 16, 2023, before 10 am in the morning.
This company has permanently lost my business. I work for a "Service" company myself and if there are only crickets to be heard, I wouldn't have a place of employment.
Do yourself a favor, avoid the BIG headaches of writing emails and follow ups about the status of a simple order, array of excuses from the customer service rep along with angry co-workers that are scrambling for paper. Take your business to Staples, Office Depot, Office Max or even Amazon. W.B Mason are not worth the Aleve, Tylenol, Motrin, Advil or whatever you use to remedy a headache. Myself, I prefer Tito's, but I can't drink on the job. read more
