Forgive and For-get, by Bram on Apr 20, 2009 22:35:25 GMT 1, Even though the last Josh Keyes print was a large edition (to give new collectors a chance of bagging one) - that hunter, gatherer instinct got the better of me and I was still F5ing prior to the release and got one of the 1st ones. So I was a bit p*ssed when a good few weeks later I found out a cock-up had occurred. To make things worse after complaining (during a busy new show) another cock up happened. Now I have had few dealings with Dave Smith through both LAG and the new Dave B Smith Gallery - and he is great bloke but even I was pleasantly surprised when my tube arrived with these two olive branches. One is an hand finished print by Robert Bellm and the other tongue in cheek "sorry " by Ryan Jacob Smith.
So it got me thinking who else has some forgive and for (get) stories. I have heard of Faile sending AP's as replacement for damaged prints etc..
I take it all back Dave ;D

Forgive and For-get, by Sacked... on Apr 20, 2009 23:26:08 GMT 1, I bagged a print from the Faile '08 drop but had to return it because somebody had jammed it in the tube and had crushed one edge by pushing the plastic end too hard,so i emailed them and then i sent it back (payed for by myself) and waited a while and eventually recieved a new one But the same thing had happened !! So returned i THAT one .Eventually i recieved a third,whick was ok..I had asked about them covering my postal costs through Paypal which they refused to do.Eventually ,(after a few emails back and forth) they agreed to cover half,so i sent the postal proofs off in january to them and since then i have heard nothing.I have emailed but have had no reply so i have given up.Some arists /galleries dont always treat thier customers well.Well done to the Dave B Smith gallery for looking after you Bram.
