Default My awesome experience!

I visit SCS forums in spurts and haven't been around as often as in the recent past. One thing I noticed that's different is that Technique Tuesday used to be a member company but now they aren't. Not sure if the companies get rotated out or what but I wanted to share my recent experience with TT.

In 2006 I attended CKC Mesa for the first time and took a class that used TT stamps. We were given a teeny tiny stamp set along with a teeny tiny little acrylic cube for stamping. I fell in love with this stamp set, so much that right after class I went a purchased a bunch of their stamps. TT was my first introduction to acrylic stamps and what a concept to be able to see where I was stamping!!

Fast forward to last year when I noticed my TT stamps were turning to a gel consistency becoming so soft they ripped when I tried to take them off the backing or they were getting hard and impossible to get a good stamped image. I had only ever cleaned them with stamp cleaner so I couldn't figure out what happened. But I sure missed using those stamp sets.

I decided to write them a letter to see if they could send replacements for the ripped and hardened stamps (not a whole brand new set, just whatever ones were damaged which really wasn't many) I mailed the letter not sure I would even get a response.
Was I surprised when I received an email from them saying how sorry they were about my experience, that they stand behind their products but that this batch was defective and they included a $75 egift certificate for me to use to purchase new sets as the ones I owned were discontinued! Wow!
I never expected this response!!

Well, long story slightly shortened:oops: I chose new stamp sets and they arrived today! I haven't had time to play with many ( I did ink up two of them) but I am so thankful to Technique Tuesday for their desire to stand behind their products and make me a happy customer once again!

What struck me most was their attitude towards me. They never questioned me further, never asked me for proof of purchase, though I would have tried (I'd have had a hard time finding the proof!) I am amazed!!

Just had to share
A happy Technique Tuesday customer

Hi Kathy,
I read that we shouldn't use stamp cleaner on acrylic stamps, that it can wear them out.
Just wanted to pass that along.

Thanks, but the stamp cleaner I used was recommended by TT.

Great to know this! I looked them up after reading this and liked their stamp sets especially the silhouette ones. Placed an order now so they should thank you for a referral

That's really a great story to hear! I just started buying their sets within the last few months and love them. I just love hearing stories like this.

Just wanted to follow up on this and say that I think they have amazing customer service!

I ordered my package on Wednesday night last week expecting to get it in a week or two. On Friday morning my husband calls to tell me I have a package from Technique Tuesday and I couldn't believe it! Great to see such quick service!

Hoping to get time to play with my new stamps today

I have several of their alphabet sets, word sets and swirls. I bought these many years ago when I was initially stamping. I haven't used them in ages, except for the swirls. Looks like I better dig them out to see if they are ok. I know they were kinda pricey when I bought them, but I have a "thing" about alphabets and there they were in the LSS. I also bought four different sets of tiny little stamp pads. There are 9 pads in each box. THOSE I use all the time! They are somewhat dried out, but I still find a way to use them. Had to have them. Nice to hear about your positive experience.
