    Hi,

    I ordered several stickers from TF Kingdom and they were cut so badly that I asked for them to be returned. Their initial response was to paraphrase "That is why they are so cheap."

    I do not care how cheap they are even if they are a nickel I wouldn't use them.

    Anyways, I had a sneeking suspsicion that there would be issues returning this item so I spent a couple of bucks and sent it by registered mail.

    Over a process of about three weeks according to the tracking number the item went "unclaimed" as it was attempted to be delivered to thei address. It went so many times to their address that USPS just returned it to my address in Canada.

    TFKingdoms states that they never received it on every occassion despite the mailing address being exactly what they asked me to write.

    I was extremely patient with them asking for my refund multiple times always polite.

    They never did.

    The items were 22 dollars and the mail was 5 dollars.

    It's interesting that TFKingdom would risk their reputation for stickers that probably cost them to make 5 dollars.

    In summary, do not buy from them.

    I can confirm this. I ordered a set of Mirage stickers a while back, and since the side stripes weren't cut completely they tore when I peeled them off.

    Thanks for the feedback, sorry about how we got it but TFW community has the benefit of your wisdom now.

    In summary: stay clear of TF Kingdom.

    I've only used Reprolabels and had a positive experience even if shipping internationally is slow.

    Ive been very happy with my reprolabels , the only thing they could do to make me happier is come over and put the damn things on for me :) . I hate stickering , but I love the results.

    Surely Reprolabels should be your only port of call when it comes to stickers?

    Hi, pgianos, you ordered defective stickers, take a look at it again: Transformers G1 Starscream Sticker Sheet - Repro, we also gave you the non-defective stickers for the ones you bought just dont have the pre-applied stickers.

    Regarding the returns, we have never had any problems with people wanting to return their items. In fact, we don't even ask for a reason if you return them within 14 days. You have never sent us a message through our website with your order number, in fact, you were sending messages to our email address for paypal payments which we do not really monitor, but we still got back with you within 2 days. Now regarding your returns, I have no clue what return address you used, but by looking at the tracking number, it was not going to our address, and it never said we refused the package.

    Like I said, if you don't like our stickers, simply return them for a full refund, but please don't buy the defective stickers, then complaint about they are defective and demand a full refund without returning them. Thanks.

    He emailed us saying if we dont give him a full refund(without returning the stickers back to us) he will be posting on every transformers forum, so I thought I'd at least get my side of the story out.

    If you feel that you give a legitimate product. What do you care? Bad feedback or not, that still draws attention to you. This means that he could potentially be advertising for you if not knowing, but inadvertently.

    Whoa, whoa, whoa. TFKingdom is not violating that rule. Defending himself against a potentially bad client is allowed. You'd want the same freedom if you were in their shoes. Don't mini-mod. Let the real mods handle shit like this. If you have a problem, report the post.

    Thank you for reminding me, but trust me, I am not trying to promote anything here, that is why I have never said anything before now. Like TFXProtector said, I am just trying to defend myself, nothing more. Especially you have people jump to conclusion very quickly.

    You can clearly see in the picture some of the stickers are off-centered, and again it is clearly says so in the product description. Can't see how TFKingdom did anything wrong here.

    Yeah--I intentionally bought some of their "defective" stickers off ebay that were mis-cut to use for other purposes---like decorating things, "experimenting before using a good/rare sticker", etc. They're noted as such, and cheaper for that reason.

    that's not clear at all. The TFKingdom guy said "but you bought defective stickers". Thats bullshit straight up- there is nothing in the title of the product that says "defective" and only in small print in the description does it say "some stickers may be cut off center". It's like when Ebay first started and people would desribe a cell phone in the auction title and at the very bottom would put "this auction is for the box only" BS



    I think that and how the TFKingdom guy posted on here have made it damn clear that TFKingdon is a shitty etailer. And it does sound like TFKingdom was happy doing nothing for this guy until he threatened to tell the fandom (he posted this on cybertron with more details). Then he comes on here and indicates this is all on the OP. Sorry TFKingdom, you should have just stayed quiet and dealt with this guy outside the website (in which case it could have been reported as off site drama, however coming in here it is now on site drama lol).

    TLDR; TFKingdom guy did more harm than good posting his side of the story

    Great. You said your piece. I hope you never order from them, because if there is an issue, I'll gladly come back and laugh.

    WHat i find hilarious is that this is over a $2 repro sticker sheet that says in the product description that some are cut off center and in the images it can be seen. Seems petty to make such a fuss over it. I get its hard earned money but 2 bucks is not worth this kind of trouble.
