When I bought my furniture with El Dorado in **********, **, back in Aug 2018, I negotiate the purchase to be financed in 3 years. In Aug 2021, I received a statement on amount of $1,539.01. Also, an additional Promotion Ending Soon. I had 3 dates to pay in full to avoid accrued interests. However, it never said how much should be after September 2021 and that the new amount would become more than double. Once thing I could guarantee, if I knew about that I would have find a way to pay off at that time. Look what happened after that. Sep 2021 new amount $2,589.02. Oct 2021, new amount due ********. Last statement, Apr 2022 $3,624.02.I don't deny I own money to close this deal. I want to close it and fairly for both sides. However, the accrued interest applied by El Dorado are not possible to be paid off. The total of my purchase was $3,528.87. I see two problems: one the seller did not explain correctly this billing process and we were not told we would have these accrued interests applied. Second, on the statements never clearly mentioned it could become more than the double the total amount. Another interest thing, if you see the statements, I have been paying and total amount is increasing instead of decreasing. You can see some statements attached. I would like to pay of the amount from Aug 2021. If El Dorado does not review it here with BBB, I will go to Court. These interests are not fair cannot go from 1.5 K to 3.6 K. This is ridiculous.Business response

I furnished my entire house at El Dorado. I bought a dining room table. It came perfect the way I ordered it until one of the installers scratched the leg putting it together. I reported it and El Dorado said they would bring me new legs. After about the third attempt I Said forget it. I'll just keep the ones I got because I like the color. All the ones that they were bringing me came discolored. I bought chairs and a light in the dining room that all match the legs. Yesterday they made another attempt and replace the legs but I was not home my daughter was here and they said they were going to replace them but they are still discolored I wanted to keep the original and on several occasions I told them please just let me keep the ones I have even with the scratches because they were at the top underneath the table that you really couldn't see. I ordered some more counter height tables and said asked them if they could just give me a discount off those and I'll keep the legs that I have on the dining room table cause they match the chairs but they continued to push me to get new legs and they still keep coming damaged. I am so dissatisfied being stuck with damaged and discolored legs that don't even match my chairs now. I want my old legs back and I will be satisfied or ones that are right.Business response

I am rejecting this response because:I think El Dorado has several problems
1 They don't have a problem lying
2 They have so much business they feel they can do anything.
3 they have the poorest customer service
All you have to do is read other reviews...
So what happened
they delivered a 3 piece sectional sofa to me on Feb 17 2022
the next day we noticed the one section was way out of line with the other two..
I texted my salesman and he told me they would get back to me. After weeks I texted him and he told me they are very busy and understaffed. This happened over and over. Finally a guy comes out, clearly not qualified, starts filling the sofa up with extra padding...he had no tools and had to use several of my tools. In fact I had to get on the floor and fix one part he could not. This lasted 1 day and it was worse. weeks went by and he showed up again telling me they have to order parts.. A very **** man called and said they would fix it quickly... That was a long time ago.
4 months later I have a sofa that hurts to sit on.
I told them...
replace the sofa section
give me $600 I will get it fixed
take the whole sofa back and credit me
My wife just had brain surgery and this is her sofa to recover on... what kind of people do not respect that...
they want me to wait 2-3 months till they get some parts... that are not going to work... this is a stall technique.
in the letter they sent you they said I did not talk to them... I have talked to everyone I could there and they know my position...

Order # *******YF95 Customer ID: ******* I bought one big sofa and one loveseat at El Dorado Furniture located at ******************************************************************* They promised to delivery in 8/21but it was delivered on 9/10/21. When the two delivery men came to my house, only one wore the mask for 10 minutes. Also, they were talking a lot. We're still in the middle of the covid 19 pandemic and I suffer from a chronic medical condition. For these reasons, once they left I quarantined them for a few days. After the quarantine I noticed the 2 front feet on each sofa were damaged and a piece of a white sticker was hanging under the big sofa. I gently pulled it off and what was revealed was that the black mesh fabric under the sofa was torn and there was a hole. I text the salesman and explained the whole situation, I texted the pictures. I called several times to talk with the Supervisor or customer but they did not respond To resolve I am requesting 100% of refund and pick the furniture up.Customer response

I am rejecting this response because: After they sent the technician to fix the scratch and do the paint job, I was informed by the technician that El Dorado did not request to change the black mesh fabric under the sofas. He advised me to contact El Dorado about the black mesh fabric. I did so and I spoke to ********************* (Sales Leader) who told me that they will make the request for the black mesh fabric and then they would contact me to schedule another appointment to have the technician come and replace the black mesh fabric under both sofas. They did not say at any point that they needed to contact the vendor in order to place the order for the black mesh fabric

Customer received merchandise back on 09/10/2021. It wasn't until 09/25/2021 (15 days after delivery) that customer reported the legs of the sofa were not aligned properly. We also noticed after reviewing the pictures submitted by the customer that the merchandise was moved from original delivery, so the damages on the merchandise could have
been caused because of the re-arrangement of the merchandise done by the customer.
Even though, we went ahead and sent a service with a certified technician. The technician reported that the wood frame on both items the sofa and the love seat were crooked, the front legs had chips and scratches on the paint and the dust cover on the sofa was torn. Technician removed the legs from the sofa and love seat and installed them correctly, also he filled in, sanded down and touch up all chips and scratches from both pieces.
The only thing that was left pending was the replacement of the dust cover in this case we ordered the dust cover directly from the manufacture but we still haven't receive the parts yet.
We have always been in communication with ****************** and we have kept her informed of all updates on her case, and when we haven't been able to communicate with her a voicemail was left. Part should be arriving end of June / early July, as soon as parts arrives we will send a technician out to customer's house to install it.
Customer is aware. The store called her on 06/07/2022 one more time to go over the details and she agreed one more time to wait for the parts.Customer response

Better Business Bureau:
I appreciate so much all your assistance on this matter.
I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ********, and I am agreed to wait for the parts and wait for the technician to come to our house and fix the two sofas, If El Dorado Furniture keep their promise and resolve the issue, it will be satisfactory to me.It is necessary to inform you about the following issues mentioned by El Dorado Furniture.
A- It is true that the legs of the sofa were not aligned properly and also the wood frame on both items the sofa and the love seat were crooked, the front legs had chips and scratches on the paint and the dust cover on each sofa was torn. That is the REASON why I filed the complaint.
B- It is not true that the merchandise was moved from original delivery. We did not re-arrangement the sofas, for which the damages on the merchandise cannot have been cause because of the re-arrangement of the merchandise made by us.
C- It is not true they have always been in communication with me, otherwise I will not insist on the complaint and keep calling the Store with no response. They always said the manager was busy and they never called me back.
On 10/29/21, I received the first call from El Dorado Furniture, then second call was on 06/07/22 and they said ordered the dust cover and they are waiting for the parts. They said part should be arriving end of June / early July, as soon as parts arrives, I will receive a call from the technician to schedule an appointment to come to our house to install it.
