Granite Emporium is not responsible for the dissatisfaction the customer is experiencing based on his own selection. The customer viewed and choose a color and then in different lighting after the work had been completed, decided he did not like the color. And because he doesnt like it, he insists that we did not provide him with what he choose and that we are giving him a different product. This accusation is unfounded, and ridiculous. All pieces are custom selected and custom cut. We did offer him the chance to choose another piece that we would produce at no additional charge, he did not take advantage of this. We are the granite professionals and experts, however he is trying to get ** to understand that what we are selling is not correct. The customer has alot of knowledge to gain about natural stone and its variations. Granite Emporium did what we were commissioned to do. Custom products are not refunded. The offer to sit the pieces outside was to accomodate any time constraints with pickups. Many people have agreed to have their pieces left in a specific location so that they can pickup late in the evening. He had no obligation to have his pieces left outside, this was only on option. We have successfully completed projects with this customer in the past. At this time, ********************** no longer wants to conduct business with this customer and wishes him well.Customer response

I am rejecting this response because:I chose and paid for absolute black granite as it on the bill. This stone is well known and cant be confused with other granite, only total amateur doesnt know characteristics of absolute black granite (Absolute Black Granite is a solid black granite with a very consistent color and texture, stone is pure black with no variations and mineral deposits or imperfections that can be seen). The photo proves that the stone provided by Granite Emporium doesnt even have one inch of black color. Manager offered recut from scrap pieces laying down outside but none of them were black. If business cant provide right product then should do refund, not give me miscellanies scrap.
Sincerely,

THE ***** ****, REFUSED TO EXCHANGE THE CABINETS. THIS ERROR WAS MADE BY ****'S EMPLOYEE, *** PARA. THE *****, ****, ALSO REFUSED TO GIVE ME A FULL REFUND. HE OFFERED ME A REFUND LESS A RESTOCKING FEE. I REFUSED. WHY SHOULD I LOSE MONEY BECAUSE OF AN EMPLOYEE MISTAKE. I CONTACTED THE ***** A SHORT TIME LATER TO ASK IF THE REFUND LESS THE RESTOCKING FEE OFFER WAS STILL AVAILABLE. THE ***** REFUSED. I AM SEEKING A FULL REFUND AT THIS TIME. MY RECEIPTS DO NOT INDICATE THE NAME OF THE CABINET. WHEN I QUESTIONED THE ***** ABOUT THIS ISSUE, HE ASSURED ME THE ***** WAS CORRECT. I DIDN'T DISCOVER THAT I HAD BEEN GIVEN THE WRONG ***** UNTIL MY CONTRACTORS BEGAN TO INSTALL THEM. THE CABINETS WERE DELIVERED AROUND APRIL 15, 2020 BOXED UP UNTIL JULY 5 WHEN MY CONTRACTOR BEGAN TO INSTALL THEM.
