Are you forgiving of longer TAT times if you receive a superior product from an etailer?

What is your ideal TAT time from an etailer?

I order from IOE regularly, so I'm willing to deal w/ a longer TAT for custom made products. Their TAT lately has usually been around 4-5 wks. & the info on what orders are being worked on is kept up to date, so I feel confident when I order from them.

The other etailers I order from fairly regularly are MCS & Villainess. Villainess is only premade products, so her TAT has been a few days. I know MCS offers custom orders, but I prefer to order premade products from her.

What I don't like is when I hear about etailer orders taking 2-3 months to be shipped out & said etailer decides not to keep you informed about what's going on. There are certain etailers that I've heard those types of stories about & I'll never order from them.

im waiting on my first order from ioe, but when i do get it, i will be able to compare from other etailers too.
from what i hear of ioe, its good.
i used to think suds and light was good,but i almost didnt get my product.

my recent order from the soapboxcompany was awsome! even though the products are already made she had great cs i would order from her again the cs really matters to me

manne i hope you like your order from ioe i've never ordered from there but would like to later on cool talk to you all later! anita

With etailers I kind of expect a long TAT, and I am fine with it.
As long as like Megan mentioned, it doesn't take 2-3 months without being kept in the loop about your order.

As long as they are honest and upfront about the TAT, then I am fine with it. If I had a problem with their TAT I just wouldnt order from them. I guess I just kinda expect a little bit of a wait when ordering from an Etailer. Plus I have so much stuff, the wait doesnt bother me normally.

With that being said, I have also heard of a couple Etailers where people have been waiting for months for there order. When they ask questions they get no reply. Now that I wouldnt be happy about at all. I say as long as they are honest about their TAT, and if something does happen they will respond to you then I am fine waiting a little longer.

I agree with Gizmo, as long as the posted TAT is what it actually is, I'm fine with it. Then I know what I'm getting into.

I don't mind a longer TAT as long as I know what I'm getting myself into. I really appreciate seeing updates on what order numbers are being worked on (like at IoE and JJE).

I also don't mind waiting for an order if I know I love the products (IoE's scrubs, CP hair stuff).

I am fine with long TAT when it is something I really want. I would also order a lot so that when I get my order, I'm stocked up for a while. I also like to be updated if things are taking longer than expected.
