HOME STORE & MORE The Home Store in the Mahon Point retail…read morepark is one of the brightest in the complex and just the place to get what you need for the kitchen, the bedroom, the bathroom. It sells glassware, candles, curtains, electrical items and bedding and much more. Needed a replacement kettle and picked up a Swiss one there, also some potpourri (from a large selection, much larger then Debenhams and much more reasonably priced). Didn't expect to see large size rugs there but they had some and had started to take a poke through when one of the staff told me that some 800 were due in the morning. So I thanked him for the helpful info and decided to wait as that large consignment seemed very promising indeed.

Recently bought some household furniture there and got good info and service from the young man on duty. The delivery, a few weeks later, was spot on time. The driver and his assistant carried in the heavy bits and pieces and were friendly and courteous. As they left, the driver took a few seconds to hand out some down to earth practical advice on assembly. Much appreciated, Harvey. Now could you please put that screaming skull out to grass and give us all a break.

We made a few visits to the store before deciding and each time got help and advice, all given in a very friendly way by the couple on duty. When we decided on the purchase, we got a nice little discount. The delivery date was projected for about four weeks. Sure enough, we got a call to arrange a day around the end of the period. The two lads arrived with the sofas spot on time, got them in efficiently and then put on the little legs and tided up, all done with good humour and friendliness. Well done to all from Cost Plus Sofas! see also: http://corkandabout.blogspot.com/

I lost my Nikon camera battery charger and needed one immediately, so I paid a 25% premium above what Amazon was selling my camera battery charger for. Turns out, three days later I found my charger after all and so didn't need the one I purchased at Camera World. I went to return the essentially brand-new-three-day-old camera battery charger, only to learn that they don't accept returns. To top it off, when I mentioned I was never told that by the salesman who sold me the charger, one of the men told me, "It's not your legal right to know." The other man chimed in, "It's the customer's responsibility to ask." Hmm, interesting. So not only did I pay for an un-returnable overpriced camera battery charger, I was also hit with condescending sales staff when I wanted to return it. I responded by saying that while it may not be my legal right, it certainly would have been courteous and gentlemanly to mention the return policy upon purchasing. They responded, "We have tons of customers. You think we have time for that?" Well, how about simply training your sales staff to remind customers about the return policy when they make a sale. It's as simple as saying "this item can't be returned" or "we don't accept returns." Or put up a sign. Seems pretty easy and not very time consuming to me. But nope, they didn't have any of that. It was by far the worst experience I've ever had with any retail store. With the way I was treated, I almost felt conned: like they purposely don't tell their customers about the return policy so they can more easily close sales. To top it off, they seemed to offer very little empathy about the situation, and were extremely rude. My recommendation: unless you absolutely need something THAT moment, wait the extra 2-3 days for something off Amazon and avoid Camera World AT ALL COSTS. Unless you're in a bind or want to give your business to someone who doesn't value their customer relationships, I see no reason to ever even step foot in there.
