Engineered product reviews on their own site

Ordered a tape from Topmaq 2 weeks ago, it arrived in good time, but doesn't measure from 0, I need to put a nail exactly 242mm from where I'm measuring from to get an accurate measurement on the other end of the tape. Very odd.
I was told this was normal for a longer tape measure, but my Yamayo 50m, 100m, Stanley 50m and Komelon tapes in the past have all started at 0.
I wrote a 3 star review for their tape on their website, while the build quality was better than expected, the measurements meant it was less than suitable, and they still don't advertise the fact, and haven't published my critical review of the product.
It's because of that I can only give them 2 stars, I can't trust a company that picks and chooses the reviews for their products, and tries to offer a refund, less postage, less a restocking fee, for a product that isn't fit for purpose.

If the tape was advertised that it started 242mm after the hook, I wouldn't have purchased it, they debate that this is normal, but in the meantime fail to advertise it as such.

Hi Callum,

This measuring tape is designed and pictured with a loop end, ideal for holding when pacing out or for anchoring into the ground with a peg. This allows you to line up the starting point more precisely when measuring a space like ground for example.

The models you are referencing that start at zero feature a hooked end designed to grab and measure from an edge.

Disappointed

Disappointed. Tried to call the store 25 times over a period of 2 hours...the answering service continuously switched between the branch and "main office" which is the same.I sent an email as suggested on the message and checked for a response a number of times. Finally travelled from the opposite side of the town to find out if the item I ordered had arrived. 4 shop assistant were behind the counter standing around and the phone was ringing continuously. I asked one of them do you not answer the phone? The response: We are too busy and never answer the phone on Saturdays...I voiced my dissatisfaction to the manager who was blase‘ about my concern over spending my Saturday morning driving around town which could have been easily resolved if the "busy” staff would have answered the phone. Poor performance and maybe done by design to lure people into the shop.

Hi Michael,

Our call centre is closed over the weekend. Unfortunately due to the extreme amount of growth we have experienced in the last 24 months we are unable to answer every phone call and customers in-store take priority over answering phone calls. We apologise for your experience. You had not been contacted yet as the goods you had enquired about had not yet arrived at our branch for collection.

Please refrain from threatening our staff or any customer service representatives in future.

Hi Paul, A replacement has already been issued and dispatched to you.
We apologise for the damage caused by the courier.

The product was just what we needed…

The product was just what we needed thanks. It was needing to be replace once due to damage and this was because the packing on the side railing was insufficient and they were damaged in transit. Thank you for the quick replacement. When we received the 2nd replacement product that was also damaged but ok enough to use. I would suggest you look at how it is protected during shipping, particularly when you pay $75 for having it shipped

Great, good and bad!

The purchasing experience was fine and easy. But sadly my order then was lost in the outer corners of cyber world. It took at least three calls from me and a week, for someone to actually find my order and ensure that it was sent. Product was excellent, ordering and paying was straightforward but delivery was well below acceptable. 5/10

Thanks for your feedback. We're going through some major growing pains at the moment (tripling our staff in the last 12 months and overhauling our entire systems) and will hopefully have these issues sorted soon.

Thanks for your order, we apologise for any inconvenience this delay may have caused.

Great service!

I placed two orders recently and the service I had was great! Fast reply to questions, everything was neatly packed and arrived pretty quickly the same week as I placed the order. I will use TopmaQ again for sure!
