had a bad experience earlier today at Hi-Fi Lounge Festival Mall. The store clerk was not accommodating. Was planning on doing an audition on a pair of wharfdales, kaso "di naka setup sir". Then I tried to break the ice by mentioning that i was able to test a q acoustic set of bookshelf at another store but i want other options so i dropped by their shop, pero to no avail, suplado pa rin.

So decided to just ask their contact number, para pwede sana tumawag muna if ever i will drop by the store again, but instead of giving me a contact number the store clerk said "dun na kayo bumili, mura doon, mahal dito". never going back to that store again, sayang yun pa naman pinaka malapit sa area ko.

Sent a long email to their fb page.

And the clerk personally sent his apologies to me via facebook.

Ang bilis din ng response. What was their reason?

I would have done the same thing, writing directly to their FB or official website. While I personally do not wish anybody to be fired (let's just say the poor staff was just having a really bad hair day, huh, or the darndest of things,  he didn't come off the night before for whatever reason), the least that the management can do to deal with this annoyance is to issue an apology and, ultimately, retrain their staff.

Proper breeding cannot be taught. Dapat tanggalin na agad.

typical na pag judge sa customer na pumapasok sa store, tapos naka simpleng printed t shirt with jeans lang ang attire siguro. The same experience you get when you go to a music store to check out guitars, yung akala ng sales clerk walang pera yung nag tumitingin ng mga products nila.

Pag labas ko nga inisip ko nalang na baka nga masama lang yung araw nung clerk na yun. Pero it did not stop me from sending an email to the store. At least to let them know and send feedback regarding the performance of one of their staff.

yap, its discrimination ng mga common people.

pero kung pumasok ka dun naka formal attire,naka slacks at coat and tie, and you speak in English, super duper welcome ang gagawin naman sa u, baka bigyan ka pa nya free coffee..hehe

You  know what i think happened there? That same clerk intercepted your email and replied to it. Para di na umabot sa boss nya

Also,minsan even the owners are like that. Hope im wrong though

also had bad experience sa store na yan,few years ago may display ang anthony audio doon and i want to hear the omega,had no time to visit their showroom in makati and since im from las pinas just decided to visit festival mall, when I ask the lady personnel if i can audition the omega since it is displayed alongside other speakers on their listening area,  she replied that the amp is connected to the other speakers. wow, how hard it is to pull the banana plug and attach it to the speaker that is just beside it. since then i did not bother to enter their store when im around.

Hi guys.. I'm reading a lot of bad experiences here and I can agree that some store clerks lack customer care skills, basta maka benta lang. Anywho, I'm just going to reach out to you guys that our showroom DECIBEL AUDIO opened last March 2016 at 42 Katipunan Ave, White Plains West Q.C. We are already doing distribution to top merchants in the Philippines since the 80's (aged to perfection) ika nga. Since were also doing direct selling now, we are not just going to offer you good customer service but good audiophile brands as well. to name a few, We are the "official distributor" of REL Subwoofers, ROTEL, CANTON Speakers, Conrad Johnson, JOLIDA Integrated Tube amps.. and more.
 
Visit us and make a difference.. rest assured.

Probably near that area but not within those locations. Pag may nakita kang seller na may Onkyo, you can probably order Wharfedales from them.

Magkaiba ata sila. Magkaparehas lang ng pangalan.

binaba pa ng "Decibel Audio" yung price nya sa studio 280, 11.4k na lng piece.. duda kc ako kaya hangang ngayun di pa rin ako bumibili kasi online seller lang daw sila.

http://www.lazada.com.ph/jbl-studio-280-3-way-dual-6534-floorstanding-loudspeaker-8657115.html?spm=a2o4l.search.0.0.115d43aapxHFKE&ff=1&time=1511546742

nagtanong din ako sa JBL support, hindi sila authorized distributor.

mukhang walang product registration ang JBL para sana macheck kung legit yung mga speakers nila.
