Shipping label misprint

My package was sent to the wrong address and when I went to follow the link in the email sent to me for the tracking number the link was broken. So I had to try to locate what delivery service delivered my package through trial and error of entering in my tracking number into different websites. When I finally found the right service, I found that my package was delivered to the wrong street address because the shipping label address did not match the delivery address (my address) in the email. Luckily I was able to retrieve my package before the household had a chance to return it but overall not a great experience.

Nice website with tons of products! Many different qualities and prices of the same object make it easy to pick just the right combination of quality v. price. Will recommend to others!

The customer service worked perfect!

The purchasing software is similar to that of other platforms. However, due to the particularities of my institution I needed a different payment method. The customer service worked perfectly. Andrea offered me every support and facilities to make the purchase without problems.

I think remote operation is a pretty good

I think remote operation is a pretty cool thing, and it's a necessary step to go through. So I'd say keep doing it, and having more hands-on opportunities would be even better.I hope to see more advanced techs in future attempts.
