Buff Boy Brewing Co.

We placed a sample order to see the quality of the product. The hoodie printing was off and the garment looked wet from the shoulders down as it was a different color where the logo was printed. When we reached out to Printify we had no response for several days, save for auto-emails that think they've found the solution and attempt to give you the brush off so there is no need for human assistance. After one week and multiple messages the issue was finally resolved. This response time is unacceptable given today's 24-7 shopping environment. We weren't expecting immediate resolution, however had this been a customer's order and the customer reaches out to you, and you reach out to the third-party provider about the fourth-party product... it's you who looks like the idiot because you can't give basic answers re: their order. That is not a risk we're willing to take as we insist on quality customer service. As such, yes, we uninstalled this app after our one and only issue with its customer service. If this was a one-off experience (however their service rep confirmed they're bogged down and can't handle the correspondence volume) we might've stuck around. Our parent company, who has other Shopify stores, immediately uninstalled Printify, unwilling to jeopardize their respective customer service experiences.

12/19 update- Customer order has fallen through the cracks. They ordered Dec. 18, the order didn't ship that week. I understand companies shutdown during the holidays, however Dripshipper said it's between one and seven business days for orders to process and the same timeframe for shipping. Support initially did not look into the specific order to provide more info when I had a customer grilling me about shipping (so I look like an idiot not being able to provide answers). His order didn't appear in the Dripshipper app so support told ME to recreate the order and mark it as paid. I refused and said that's not for the customer (me) to fix. We gave Dripshipper access to Shopify and they replaced an order which screwed up our accounting because the order wasn't marked as free AND the customer (already pissed off) got another email saying he ordered again but for a different amount of money. (Remember, all this is on you to relay to the customer because they think it's YOUR product that you're shipping.) While waiting for support to clear up the order, it gave me plenty of time to find the websites for the coffee suppliers and see that they have their own dropshipping and private label setup. I've reached out to them, updated my Shopify review, and discussed with colleagues how to ditch the middleman and work directly with suppliers for easier and cleaner communication. In simple terms: You pay $30/month to be a third party without direct access to the supplier to provide your customer timely and accurate information. Dripshipper is simply a middleman app that adds another layer (meaning time delays and complexity -- and cost) for simple coffee orders. - ORIGINAL REVIEW Everything you read about the customer service is true. Before we started using the app the replies seemed quick and helpful. When we were on the free trial we had two orders placed for our store. The first order was July 3 but there's no info about it (it's July 12 today), and a second order was placed the next day. The second order shipped and the customer already has it. When inquiring about order status the support people respond that they don't have access to Shopify info, even though I sent a screenshot of all the customer info. Several emails back and forth and I still never got specific details about the order in question. Be mindful of delayed responses because it makes US look like an idiot to OUR customers. If dropshipping is so secretive, remember that they have no idea that another company is messing with your customer service. To recap: a full 10 days after a customer has ordered -- our very first customer, no less -- there is no info about the shipment, the support team doesn't answer direct questions, except giving copy-and-paste replies about timeframes. Thankfully our customers are understanding and we're playing it off as "sorry about this, we're new and still getting the hang of it" but I'm expecting them to flip out and call out OUR bad customer service because of poor communication from Dripshipper. If we hadn't spent a ton of money on creating our store I'd have shut it down before the 14-day trial ended. What a shame.
