Gripy

I build computers for part of my living so when my friend needed one real quick for some work at 2am he brought me with him to Walmart to help pick one out. When we got it back one of the case fans didnt work and it would crash before it finished booting. So you know what we did? We took it back to Walmart with the recipt and they exchanged it for another one. It didnt seem to matter that Walmart wasnt involved in the manufacture of the computer. And He11, before you waste any more breath on Selltopia and their stooges that dwell in this forum . . . Remember one thing. . . http://www.bbb.org/w...ond-wa-22024083 F! Im actually an airbrush artist to He11 and i got into it for the same reason but i do a HECK of a lot more than just that now. A graphtec may be what your looking for. Even one of the little desktop sized unites could work if you dont need anything to big. Oracal 631 works as an amazing stencil material btw. Not likely

And if you knew the first damn thing about business you would understand that they are all important. You do realize that notifying customers about the status of their order is AUTOMATED on just about every website out there dont you? I ordered tickets for a concert on line a few weeks ago. They sent me 2 emails confirming it making sure everything was in order. I ordered a heat press from HPN and they immediately and automatically sent me an email telling me it was out of stock and when to expect it. Or for example the email i already posted on here from a USC competitor who now has my business. Its a normal practice. As is adhereing to their own policy they list on their website."Orders placed by 4:30 p.m. Central Standard Time ship the same day" "Orders shipped from our Seattle warehouse reach most of our Western customers within 2 to 3 days, including 2 days to Northern California." Grow the fuck up. I guess its half my fault tho. When i ordered vinyl thru USC i half expecet some kind of crap like this to happen. Its why I didnt get my Graphtec thru USC. Fool me once. . .

Because Fellers wont carry Siser. And honestly, ive dealt with this company enough at this point to know that a lack of communication and poor response is not rare. I should have received an email about the status of my order. I still dont know what the status even is, it just says Awaiting Inventory. What does that even mean? Did they order it? Are they sending it to me from the factory? Will I be updated about its ETA soon? When will it be in? All of those questions need to be answered. It is simply bad policy combined with bad management. But thats commerce for you. I have other options and the freedom to do business with who i chose and the choice is clear. I wont be spending money with USC any more. And just so were clear this wasnt a last minute order or a rushed job. I ordered my vinyl with plenty of time to spare, its USC that screwed up, not me. "Orders placed by 4:30 p.m. Central Standard Time ship the same day" "Orders shipped from our Seattle warehouse reach most of our Western customers within 2 to 3 days, including 2 days to Northern California."

I use fellers for 99% of my stuff and they always call me the next day with an update on when things will get to me and where they ship from. They also dont charge for shipping if the order is over 100$ and its the fastest shipping possible. I have ordered vinyl they didnt have in stock and so they shipped it from Avery and it still got to me in no time flat. USC does not have that kind of service.

I cant not stand dishonest sales practices. I sell things on line out of a stock of vinyl that i carry. I am always updating and relisting items to reflect new materials in my inventory. But my question is, what should i do when a customer orders some thing from me on line that i dont have in stock? For instance a certain color of vinyl that i am out of. Should i send them an email saying i am out of that stock? Should i delist the color or should i put a notice on my ad saying that there may be some restocking time required for certain items? The reason i ask is because last Sunday night i ordered some super expensive ass vinyl from US Cutter and it has yet to be shipped. I made sure to order it at a specific time so that i could have it for this weekend when i needed to get some work done. But guess what! I received no email notice saying it was out of stock, there was not notice on the order form and yet the item was still for sale without change on the web site. I had to log on to the web site and check on the status of my order manually. That was when I saw my order history and my most recent order : Order Status Awaiting Inventory. And it gives no ETA what so ever. Are you fking kidding me? Sorry, I don’t really have time for this. I have a company to run, just because US cutter donest have their act together on this doesn’t mean that my company has time to waste. This is the second time i have had this same issue with an on line company and I AM DONE WITH IT. My wholesalers all get my material to me by an exact date that they tell me before i even order. I cant stand this middle man crap any more. At least the last idiots I dealt with at HPN promptly sent me an email informing me the item I had already paid for didn’t exist. But I will never do business with them again either. I can understand this company not having an itme in stock. But this is not the first time USCUTTER has taken their sweet time getting some thing to me. I had this same issue with an MHRefine I bought a few years ago and then had MORE issues dealing with the problems it caused. I ordered my Easyweed vinyl from here because it was 3$ cheaper than the other places. Not worth it. USC has been good to me in some ways but I have to say no more at this point.

I see this question more and more! Oracal 351 vinyl is really good for flat surfaces the grey conformable paint mask they make is better for rounded surfaces

Can i ask what your cutting to make your stincile? The stincil material from Oracal works really well because its more conformable but i have had good luck using Oracal 631 with my AB.

Yes ive looked at the USCutter prices, they are about the same as every where else I dont think theres a way to get it cheaper. My wholesaler doesnt actualyl sell heat transfer vinyl much cheaper than the Siser is on here either now that im looking at it.

I just got a heat press and I want to buy some Siser vinyl but this **** it expensive as hell every where i look. A 5 yard roll of the kind i want to use is 100$! Fellers doesnt carry this stuff wholesale and im wondering if any where else does. EDIT: I think the only answer to my question is in buying larger rolls of vinyl to get a discount. But still, i think a wholesale source should be cheaper.

Just my advice, i would give the polyester 352 another chanse. I can persoanlyl say ive had some amazing results with it once i learned how to use it. It actually weeds esier than regular vinyl for me.

I think the MH machines are fine for learning on. But i have to agree with every one else . My Graphtec has been my saving grace, its whats kept me from quiting and giving up. Im still not an expert but im getting jobs and the actual cut is one less thing that i ever have to worry about. Thank god! In fact, ill be working on a job iwth it today. As long as i make these little give away stickers for the client big enough i know ill have no problem

I do this all the time and i use 631 or the paint mask material made my oracal.

The answer to the question of this thread is to buy a better cutter. Ive been building computers for 10 years, ive never had a cable "go bad" unless it got sucked into a vacume cleaner. I tend to jam them into pockets and cram them in the smallest holes when traveling without ever having to think twice about their durability. Just way way way to much crap to deal with if you ask me. Then again signcut did this same kind of crap to me just now on my Graphtec. Opened Flexi and problem solved. SC freezes on me and does all kind of stupid crap when using it to so i would step up as soon as you can.

Im defintly not a pro when it comes to ill or any other design program. Your explanation doesnt really help tho sorry lol. Im sure i will firgure it out eventually.

Im making my vector .EPS from TIFF and JPEG files in adobe il using the auto trace method with settings manually tweeked. When i open my images in SC it almost always tells me i have duplicate objects. If i delete them it ruins my image and if i dont it cuts fine. But my images always display wrong in the pannel, parts missing or parts filled in that should be empty. This makes it hard to add weed lines. Whats the deal?
