What would you consider a good refund on a ripped seamless paper backdrop?


so, i just got my very first seamless paper background.. Its savage brand, in almond. got the 107'' by 12 yd one... it was shipped from the company and arrived at my house yesterday, today i brought it to my studio, and opened it up, and there is a tear about 6 feet long up the side. the backside was taped over teh tear like they knew there was a tear, taped it and mailed itanyway... my shoot that i bought this for, is Tuesday {a womens health night=--- complete with makeovers and "model" style photos...}theres not time to ship itback... when i called theyre only options were, send it back {on my dime not theyres} and they would send me a replacement, or give me $10 back on my credit card....

my question to you all in YA land, is do you think ths is an appropriate refund? ive had good luck with this company before, but the way this was handled just kinda annoyed me. the guy i talked to on the phone, implied 'here take it, and shut up about it'

To me that would be COMPLETELY unacceptable! If you can't get what you want from the customer service rep- keep insiting and talking to a manager/supervisor- keep working your way up until you get what you want. They should overnight you a brand new one- and pay the shipping to take the old one back. $10 is an insult. I would talk to a supervisor and explain your problem- making sure to emphasize it was done before it was shipping and it's THEIR FAULT- and they can incure the charges of getting you one that is CORRECT on time to you and at THEIR EXPENSE!
Or you can simply tell them you want your purchase refunded COMPLETELY (not just $10) and that you've never had a problem with their company before and use them frequently,. but since they have dealt with this in such a poor and unprofessional manner you will not be using them again!

The shipper is usually responsible for the damage. There is a possibility that the shipper did the "repair", but it is hard to know what actually happened. Actually you lost about $8 worth of paper, so $10 is fair.

Take the $10 and don't ever buy from that company again.

Most pro camera stores sell Savage roll paper backgrounds.

Most of us who shoot models use supper white, black or green chroma key backgrounds.
