I know how much you all adore Lee Valley. Quite frankly, except fer
their woodworking tools, they sell nothing but junk. I've seen better
deals in a Harriet Carter catalog. IOW, mostly crap.
BUT!.... they do come through!!
Case in point: I bought their severely overpriced 16oz Tervis® tumbler
(w/ lid) fer $15.50USD. Although it is "guaranteed" fer life, it only
lasted 2 yrs before ice cubes threatened to 'chip-away' the bottom. I
told a Lee Valley support droid, sent her a photo of the offending
Tervis® tumbler, and made a deal fer half dozen Duralex® Picardi 250ml
glasses ($14.50USD), which jes arrived by UPS, today (I've nursed one
fer yrs).
DO NOT buy the Tervis® tumblers. They are junk. Plus, the first time
I showed mine, in public, everyone else had 32oz tumblers. Told me
they got 'em at a flea mkt fer a couple bucks. I don't know if they
were Tervis®, but they sure looked like 'em.
BTW, Lee Valley customer support?: A freak'n plus!! ;)
nb --will probably buy from LV, again
