I am done with Edition Populare, by chrispa on Jun 28, 2012 0:07:49 GMT 1, first they start to reprint and reissue Dran
now their latest is to relist the Oak Oak print that 3 weeks ago they mailed everyone to say we have a few days to buy as they were being taken permanently off the site (at the same time as the Drans)
.
Now I dont care if they were to release open issue prints or not remove prints from their site
What I do care about is when they mislead buyers like this
.
For me - I would never trust them again
and when I questioned them about the re-appearance of the Oak Oak I got the following unintelligible message.
Hi, in fact at the first we want to sold this prints, and we think It's ok at the first end proposal but there is not , today we have create a new pack proposal .(with the book ).
And for sold All the rest of the stock
We re-start ( with the rest of the stock) the sale of this products.
Actualy, we have less stock of each
Poster of Oakoak , and when they are
Soldout we stop the selling definitvly for this product.
And after that , thats the real end for this Product.
Sorry for the confusion.

As for their response.. Have seen worse modern poetry

I am done with Edition Populare, by chrispa on Jun 28, 2012 0:23:41 GMT 1, and I have just spotted they have done the same with the Tilt prints
what they said was
"Closing of the sale of these prints limited to 250 copies for each on Sunday 17th June at midnight"
what they obviously meant was
"quick everyone, buy some prints, but if they don't all sell out they will be back in 2 weeks"

EP is making no friends these days.

But they are not English.
So why should their English be good? Why not speak to them in French?

I am done with Edition Populare, by twist65 on Jun 28, 2012 14:13:35 GMT 1, i agree this is all a bit of a mess.
Have to say when I bought the original Dran ones I didn't even realise they were "Limited" though.
Don't know why they just didn't do them all as open editions, the first Drans were really good quality and I thought an ok price for what they were. This reprinting and "limited time only but no its not" approach is a bit amateur hour to say the least! Won't be bothering again if the qualitys getting worse and its all a bit of a shambles...

Although I do not condone how they're handling their prints I have to agree with this statement. I've called galleries in Asia and could barely make out what they're saying sometimes but the fact that they're trying so hard is good enough for me. I don't expect the world to be able to communicate in English but applaud the fact that they're trying

I am done with Edition Populare, by Forbidden Love on Jun 28, 2012 22:35:47 GMT 1, Their service is so crap, I ordered about 4 posters when the last set of drans came out. I wanted to just change my order to 2 posters. My emails went unreplied. I sent about 3 or 4 emails. I then waited weeks and weeks and still no replys to chasing up. I opened a dispute on PayPal. And then they finally replied saying they were in the post. I then said ok but I just want a refund as soon as they arrive I'm sending them back for a refund. Not much sooner after that I get a refund. Don't think I'd ever be ordering from them again.

And they said they have to check with the post office. And they are taking over 3 weeks to check. And still no answer. I think this is really bad. I still have hope in kindness of galleries. As we are all in this for the art. I really hope they give me the refund.

Everything I've ordered has arrived albeit taking a little time. Strange packing on the Dran fairy tale though

Same thing with books
