Purchased an item on line for instore pick up. They sent it to my home for $7.95 and I never received it. Then I get a notice it was returned to sender and they want another $7.95 to send it out again. (Two children's watercolor pans, mind you). They were rude and unaccommodating, which seems insane in this economy. Anyway, avoid them if you are choosing between vendors.

This is the site I ordered from: http://www.creativityforkids.com/

I thought it was Faber Castell directly, but it is not. It uses a middleman service called shopatron and they are the problem. They used this company: http://www.kingarthurstoys.com/ to fulfill the order and they were difficult too. In the end, I never got my order and I am out $8 shipping on some kids watercolor cakes. I am going to protest the AMEX charge.

That is too bad. Is it Creativity for Kids that you had a problem with? I have always found Faber Castell's cs to be spectacular.
