Correcting myself... MFT shipping is free after $65. It's a FREE stamp set you get after you spend $60! Still WAY better than continuing to knock yourselves out ordering from PTI!

Chris Simon said...

Welcome to the crew of people who post on the smack blog using their own names, Lou! Funny how getting warned/banned on the forum does that to some people. Sorry you had so much trouble last night.

Anonymous said...

I also like MFT, but I have also had slow shipping and I agree that Simon Says is the way to go because you can buy almost all your supplies in one shot with free shipping, while a $60 order of MFT alone is over the top for me.

Anonymous said...

MFT's dies tend to be too pricey, imo and sometimes you HAVE to buy the die and the stamp set together, which is not a good thing for me.

So Beth and Michelle have walked away? The person replacing them has nice cards, but nothing like the dt team has put out in the past.

How long can a company keep coming up with a new customer base every few months before they have treated thousands terribly and no one will go near them anymore?

Nichole's attitudes toward the customers and the way she speaks to them and bans them for telling the truth is really horrific.

I've ordered from MFT before and the shipping was OK. It wasn't fast, it wasn't slow. I didn't get any sort of tracking for the shipment.

I just placed another order with MFT with the 20% off sale recently. The web store was easy to use. When you add to the cart, it pops up a note that the item is in the cart. You can easily move to the next item you want to order. If you reach $60, there is a pop up with a link to add the free bonus item to your cart.

Chris Simon said...

I'm happy to see Cristina Kowalczyk on the design team. She's one of my very favorite stampers, and I'm looking forward to seeing what she creates.

Shun the non-believers.

Chris Simon said...

Looks like they're not actually deleting the cart-dumping threads. They've merged at least one of them into the release night tech support thread. You can tell because the release night tech support thread grew by two pages all of a sudden, and the titles at the top of some individual replies still say "cart dumping".

Anonymous said...

LOL!! Sh-unnnnnn

Anonymous said...

FYI on the MFT stamps & dies. A while ago they switched to either buying them together (as it had been) OR buying the die only. So you can now just buy the die if you want.

Anonymous said...

That's bizarre about the threads being merged.

Chris Simon said...

Well, when I'm sweeping up stuff, I tend to gather it all into a bigger pile before I throw it out...

InkStink said...

LOL, Chris!!

Anonymous said...

That is exactly the problem. When you want the MFT stamp set but not the die, you also have to pay for the stupid die!

Anonymous said...

Chris, you got that right!

Anonymous said...

LOL Chris! That would make sense because I don't think that Nichole is going to want to keep those 3 posts that call her out for being rude. Maybe she is just burying them?

Anonymous said...

Sorry, thought you wanted the die but not the stamp set.

Anyone see the problem here?

You might enjoy Grammar Girl on fb if you are a kindred spirit -- it's not just spelling; it's a breakdown in people's knowledge of their own language.
I know this isn't a grammar smack blog, but I did think it was funny.

Anonymous said...

I really hope that it was Michelle's decision to leave.

Anonymous said...

Why is everyone so concerned/surprised that Mish has left PTI? Didnt we all see this coming when she moved to team lite for family reasons *cough cough project life cough cough*?

Anonymous said...

I am not concerned or surprised.

I do find it worth discussing though.

Anonymous said...

People leave companies all the time - I think I would like to put a safe distance between myself and PTI too if I was a stamp designer/DT/etc.

Anonymous said...

Girls have always left PTI but one at a time and staggered. Recently, not so much.


I can't stop shaking my head about this releases mess!! Month after month, so much frustration for the customers. But, they keep coming back!

Anonymous said...

Even with Nichole's shitty attitude last night, the truth is nobody is going to stop buying from PTI. This includes me. I haven't purchased since November 2011 and before that it was SAF 2011. I do have an order planned for SAF 2012.

The only thing we can do is STOP advertising for PTI. When you post on your blog, do not credit PTI.

When friends ask what kind of stamps you have, give them all the gory details.

I've never submitted for publishing but can you omit PTI from that as well?

Our only hope is that GinaK picks up some new designers and kicks PTI's ass with better clear stamps and silhouette cut files instead of dies.

Anonymous said...

I feel sorry for the new kid on the PTI block, I almost feel an obligation to warn her. She should stick with W Plus 9.

Anonymous said...

Wow, this post from Lisa Johnson has to be a middle finger pointed directly at Nichole and PTI!

http://www.poppypaperie.com/poppy_paperie/2012/06/grateful-for-you.html

She made a hexagon card with MFT products and posted it on the day of the PTI release of new hexagon product!

WOW!

From the WOW thread -

I had a 2 :45 am wake up this mourning so staying up untill 10 p m is a rough go for getting up and nothing Sold out I could have slept at regular time and been more wide eyed on the way to work this mourning and I work until 9 p m tonight at least I'll be happy when my package gets here

Translation-

Beth has not updated her blog with her goodbye to Papertrey.

I hope that it was her decision to leave and not Nichole's.

Chris Simon said...

In my opinion, one of the things that makes it such a big deal when someone leaves the PTI design team is that they don't have "terms" like most companies' teams. Everyone on the team is there indefinitely, so it makes it very tempting to speculate about why someone leaves when they do.

I totally disagree with you 9:48, I don't think longevity has anything to do with it but everything to do with the mess PTI is

Chris Simon said...

I agree with you about the mess, 9:54. Notice that I said "one of the things".

"I totally disagree with you 9:48, I don't think longevity has anything to do with it but everything to do with the mess PTI is "


Pardon? What is it that you disagree with?

Anonymous said...

I have defended PTI and I have given them credit when credit is due. But it is unacceptable to talk to people disrespectfully the way Nichole does.

I have joined the ranks and I am finished. I doubt I will even visit their site anymore. This was my last order.

Truth Hurts said...

I love Lisa's newest hex card and already own all the versamagic inks so it will be easy to play along. Maybe I too will switch to mft.

Suck it, pti.

Anonymous said...

Regarding MFT and Gina K - even if the customer service is good, the stamps don't appeal to me at all. Very outdated look, down to the fonts. I'd rather take my chances with PTI.

Anonymous said...

I still like a lot of PTI's designs and I haven't found another company that I would like to buy stamps and dies from.

I do still buy from the for sale board but I won't give PTI any of my money directly.

Anonymous said...

I was on SCS the other day and saw their store locator. There was a store listed at the top, that had all my favorite brands of stamps and dies including WPlus9, Memory Box, and My Favorite Things.

I placed an order that qualified for free shipping, and got it within 5 days! I don't have to order direct from companies and try to qualify for free shipping...I can order from all my favorites from ONE place!

Anonymous said...

Love Christina's cards and looking forward to her work on the DT. I will miss Michelle's cards and stamps, although her last PTI post was a bit lackluster. I wonder if she continues to get $$$ from the stamps she designed.

Anonymous said...

I had to giggle over this in Lisa's post:
I'm LOVING, truly LOVING my VersaMagic inks! The vibrancy of the colors is so great... so is the coverage. I need to get some more colors though. Let's face it... we stampers can never have enough colors!

Seems PTI inks weren't her favorite either!

I found that post funny as well. You would have to have been away for the past year to not know the extent of PTI's customer service and shipping issues.

Anonymous said...

Simon Says carries all those brands and much more. Their shipping is very fast and their customer service is great. They almost always restock oos items within a week.

Anonymous said...

"inexact" by Nichole is hilarious. Kind of a freudian slip.

Beth is no big loss but I'm surprised she left, I think she only got hired because she's bff's with sausage fingers. However it'll be interesting to see how long she devotes to her *family* before working for another company, lol.

oh god who paid off Tyree or whatever her name is to come on the boards with the sunshine and roses. Her and Audrey Nicole are keeping the nichole love flowing today..

I bet Beth is adding another to that 6-pack.

LOL, I thought it meant she was going to lose her baby weight and get her 6 pack back again. Her dt picture looks like before she had the 6 babies and she was so gorgeous.

Notice those new defenders only have a very few posts. They are not people who know the real whole story.

Ellen Hutson also added MFT products to their website too, yay!!!

Anonymous said...

Yes, where are those people? Why is Cheryl not there saying what happened last night was a forgivable and rare fluke? Why is she not there saying that Nichole has every right to demean customers for pointing out the reality of what is happening? Oh, Cheryl! Are you joining us here soon?

Anonymous said...

Because PTI images are so "on trend" people will continue to order, including myself. I hate wal mart and we always ALWAYS have to wait in line to check out. Its been that way for years. Same thing with PTI, hassle or no hassle they will continue to make money because they have some of the best designs in the industry, period.

Chris Simon said...

And the release night tech help thread is now locked. No response from NH about the rudeness. One of the replies calling her out on her rudeness was deleted, but Barbara's is still there. Some other things were deleted from the thread as well - I only know this because I know that Donna C had the last reply in the thread earlier today, and hers is gone now, too.

Chris Simon said...

My mistake - Donna's reply is still there. I must be blind.

Hello, PriceCheck....where are you? Shouldn't you be defending Nichole's actions last night since you are such a positive happy person??

you take a perfect opportunity to provide valid criticism to a company and ruin it by mentioning irrelevant mean spirited things. and now folks are quoting ted on scs and implying lisa is giving the finger to pti.

you really should not do this stuff. it is rude. it is mean and not one bit funny. and no i'm not cherly. i'm not anyone with a name.

just someone who likes to live by the golden rule.

i love for the moment you get back what you are dishing out.

12:49, why blame this blog for what people are posting on SCS?

Don't you think it's possible that someone saw Ted's interaction with Nichole WITH THEIR OWN EYES and decided, OF THEIR OWN VOLITION, to discuss it at SCS?

I am kind of sad that I'm not enjoying the tremendous power that you unicorns invest in this blog.

What's more likely: that PTI's history of fuck ups has created enough ill will that it is a hot topic in the crafting community, or that this smack blog (created in response to those very same problems) is creating the problems instead?
