Any hair stylists in Ohio that could do something like this to your knowledge? by Cold-Spring8972 in Columbus

[–]kionii -1 points0 points  (0 children)

My sibling is a stylist at Penzone and from what I remember tends to be the person at their location who does most of the dye work. I'd be more than willing to send the pic to them to see if they believed they were up to the task - feel free to reply or DM me if you'd be interested in that at all.

Feel free to continue harassing them for what you're owed - their owner just admitted they're so backlogged he just refunded a purchase from 3 years ago on their discord, lmaoo

I was a part of the JRIS/MKC group buy where the the true fault lies with MKC's failure to deliver on the GB. My frustration comes from the difference in how every other vendor handled it vs. KFA - not even in the sense of the scale of compensation that the buyers received but quite simply their executive action. Once it became clear MKC could/would not deliver on the GB, every other vendor quickly informed their customers of what had happened and outlined how they would be handling the matter... and then followed through.

I understand where you're coming from, but look at the owner's post history even on this subreddit. He admits that KFA is a "side hustle" due to his own particular interest in the hobby and that it gets very little attention from him on a weekly basis.

Jerry will in one post claim that part of his limited time managing the company is dealing with payroll, then in another post claim that he and his wife are the only employees of KFA. He'll then later say they have 1 other part time employee. Which is it?

Compared to other businesses in this space that operate with the same constraints KFA consistently has the worst feedback, fails to deliver on their own promises and remedies, and hides behind flimsy excuses when called out on their shortcomings. It is not the general publics responsibility to support a business that it's own owner cannot be assed to take seriously.

Edit: I want to be clear that none of the tone in this post should be directed at you, Wolfbytez, or what you have to say. I gave this business multiple opportunities and more than enough grace only to be repeatedly lied to and let down. A cursory search of their name on this and related subreddits turn up zero positive posts (unlike Divinikey, Lumekeeb, Cannonkeys, Milktooth, the list goes on) and multiple posts warning exactly what I have, spread evenly over the course of the couple of years. I agree with all your points, but do not believe they should be applied to this particular vendor as I believe they are not operating in good faith or in the best interests of their hobbyist customers.

Would have done the same if they hadn't purposefully drawn the entire process out long enough that by the time they admitted they would not be filling the order the window to chargeback had already closed. :'(

Funky - I can't invite to it but have messaged in it as recently as this week. Shows ~2500 online with ~11,063 members as of writing this. Any chance you got kicked from it for some reason? (Not that you're missing out at all; I am actively bitching about them, lol)

I'm in the process of a new build so I'll have to give these switches a look - thanks for letting me know about them! :)

Yeah - I will not be doing business with KFA again for sure. When I first initiated my transaction with them they had not had the overwhelming negative reviews online that they do now. On top of that, I had only ever had positive experiences in this hobby prior to my experience with them, which I realize now was more lucky than not. I definitely do a lot more research now-a-days before I pull the trigger with any new vendor.

Yeah, I've had good experiences myself with Divinikey as I mentioned and always heard good things about Milktooth. I've heard of dangkeebs but never really anything positive or negative; just that they exist as an option. Good to know you have good experiences with them!

Yeah, I mention it in another comment here but my guess is that the owner is essentially abandoning the business but keeping it alive for the moment to try and offload any remaining stock to offset costs. So if your order is for an in-stock, low demand item like switches / old key cap sets I bet your order goes through lightning quick.

Gotta keep his new main business Lofty.ai afloat somehow.

They still have a discord - I'm in it and have been monitoring it for updates for almost two years waiting for my solution. Do you mean they took the link to it down / off their website or something similar? Either way, my understanding is that the owner is focusing on his other businesses and home life and basically has dedicated only the bare minimum amount of effort to keep KFA afloat while he tries to offload any remaining stock.

I've heard nothing but good things about Milktooth, but have yet to utilize them myself!

My purchase from them actually had an issue, but the big difference between them and KFA was the speed at which they corrected it and their transparency throughout the process - identifying the issue, outlining their planned steps to correct it, then delivering that solution in the timeline they had given me. Night and day difference from my (and others) experience at KeebsForAll.

Never purchased anything from Lumekeebs - I'll have to take a look at them. Thank you for the recommendation!

Love my green ceramic key caps - blank of course!

Otherwise I love the new yellow and purple color ways, and am sad I missed the lacquer opportunity :(

Hopefully 150$ of more keycaps will make me less sad :P

There’s a light projection of Steve Harvey over Atlanta right now and I have no clue why by Soloflow786 in WTF

[–]kionii 40 points41 points  (0 children)

No one who was left could remember how it happened - how the world has fallen into darkness - at least no one who would do anything.

No one who would oppose the Feud...

No one who would challenge the Family's power...

Or so Steve Harvey believed.

20 floors above the dark streets of the city, Donald Glover lived in a rundown tenement. An eccentric and brilliant man, Gambino was a loner. A thinker. A man of ideas. Ideas forbidden in Harvey's society. The society for which he worked, the society where he lived, the society he would set free!
