Recommendation
Took a week to invoice. In the meantime I added two more batches. I was later let know that the Brickpicks family had had an emergency. During that time Al responsibly closed his shop to new orders to catch up on his backlog and let his open orders know what had happened. The order came through but with a few errors and dirty pieces as mentioned. I never received a reply to the issues I stated. Given the other caveats going on I decided to not leave feedback. But I also may not find myself in this shop again.
*edit: After more than 2 weeks with no response to my email regarding the issues, I decided to leave a neutral.
*edit: Al saw my neutral and made an effort to contact me. Apparently I had missed an earlier message from him. He offered a refund on the incorrect parts and everything is square now. Certainly worth a look as he is concerned about wrapping up his loose ends.
