Don't bother to buy online at Buikders warehouse they are useless!!!

I ordered 5 items online, and made sure it is in stock at the Builders warehouse closest to me. They delivered 2 items, which was not the right items. I am still waiting for another 2 items, and the 3rd item says it will be shipped in 12 days. My question is why advertise the goods in stock when it's not available. Thus is false advertising!!!! I received 2 items from Protea Glenn branch, and who knows where the other items will come from. No shipping updates They called me from the call center and said the courier phoned me on the 30th of December and I didn't answer. I have no missed calls on my phone. This is absolutely unacceptable and the website is not accurate. Terrible and unacceptable!!!!!

Good morning JF. A question. How in the heck must I email you, if you can't even spell your email address???? This is incompetence at its worst. My emails kept coming back until I googled the correct email address. No wonder nobody can assist a person at Builder's. Please send someone to collect the copper wire, I can't believe you expect customers to pay for old rusted stock. I want what I paid for, not *******. I paid for eye *****s, drawing pins and decent 5000mm copper wire!!!! I have received the paint and thinners and ******* copper wire. Waiting since 29 December. Builder's warehouse is a buyer's worst nightmare!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! My airtime at this point has cost me over R150 to phone your *********** company!!!!!!!! And your driver's is another story .....

So someone phoned me this morning and asked whether they can come collect the copper wire and that he will get right back to me about the other 2 items I am waiting for. He never called back I phoned builders now and the agent put the phone down while speaking to her. I have tried 5 times to call back, my number is obviously blocked. Can someone call me back asap!!!!!!!!!!!

After promises of resolving the issue and getting g back to me, no one has contacted me today regarding the 2 items I still have not received. I cannot believe the poor customer service and the don't care attitude. I paid for items and still have not received it. This is absolutely unacceptable!!!!!!!!!!

So apparently I have to go and collect the credit from Builders!!!!! I did not ask for a refund. I paid for the item online together with the other items and paid for it to be delivered. I don't want credit from Builders.
I want the ***** eyes yellow. Protea Glenn brought me silver, not my mistake.
I will not pay for delivery again and will not be buying from builders again. I paid R70 for the item, I was credited with R50 because Protea Glenn decided to charge R20 more for the same brand paint.I am not paying for Builder's incompetence. Please refund me to my banking, I don't want credit.
