On January 22, 2012, I went to the new Asheville RTG location, and found a new bedroom suite. I purchased and paid in full. The delivery was set up for 2-7-12, they called 3 times to verify that I'd be home between 11 and 3. After 3 PM, I called RTG, and asked where the driver was. They informed me that the driver had another stop to make, before coming to my home. I ask why no one called to let me know this. They stated that in the fine print, that they didn't have to be there in that time frame.
When the driver finally arrived, and I asked why they were late, he called his office, and didn't want to deliver. After 30 minutes or so, he came back to my door, and ask if I wanted my delivery, When they started bringing in the furniture, I told them that it was the wrong color, I called the corporate office in Sefner, Florida, and the lassie there was rude from the very start. She told me that there would be a slight color difference in the furniture. I told her it wasn't even in the same color line. She argued with me, and then said she'd look it up and see if it did come in another color.
Finally, she said yes it did, and to go ahead and accept this furniture, and they would come back and swap out for the correct. I told her no way I was going to sign for this. She said she would call me back in a few minutes, and let me know what else she could do. She called back in about 30 minutes to tell me that the bedroom suite I ordered was discontinued. I asked for a refund, and since I paid in cash, I wanted a check ASAP. Today, they called late in the day, to tell me that they are cutting me a check on Friday, and mailing it out.
I am giving you the short version of this conversation. This whole ordeal was very drawn out. The people at RTG are rude and unprofessional. I own a business in Asheville, and if any of my employees are rude with customers, I would fire them on the spot, no questions. I am telling everyone that comes in about my experience with RTG, and how we will never do business with them again. I went to Haverty's in Asheville, and purchased a new bedroom suite that will be delivered on Friday within a 2 hour time frame. They have better quality, better service, and a professional staff. Way to go, RTG. What a way to start off in Asheville, NC. I hope others read about the numerous complaints about RTG, and figure out for themselves, not to do business there and go somewhere else, and save the hassle.
