As long as around the Windows looks better than apologetic grey, it doesn't matter about the inside of the garage!

A couple of weekends ago we went to both Kresta and ABC Blinds to take a look at their ranges. I liked what I saw in Kresta but the sales woman was SO impolite! She made us feel like we were interrupting her weekend and told us straight out (without even knowing our budget) that we wouldn't be able to afford shutters. So we left and went to ABC. I must admit I felt a bit underwhelmed by many of the choices on offer - and even though the salesman was nice, he didn't seem to want to talk about prices until he'd been through our house in person. Today we went to Decor Blinds and Curtains - what an absolute difference in customer service! The lady we spoke to asked to look at our floorplan then sat down with us and talked about the pros and cons of certain window treatments and then we got started on getting a quote drawn up with different options for certain windows (ie: we've asked to get shutters priced in for two windows but if they are too expensive then she's also going to quote us on sheers for those windows.) Nothing was too much hassle for her and we'll get a quote emailed through this week - if it's too high then we can go back next Saturday and talk about how to save money by substituting in cheaper products to achieve the look we want. I'd highly recommend anyone thinking about looking for their window treatments to go and check them out (we went to the Osbourne Park showroom.)

Reminds me of that Pretty Wommen scene when she is asked to leave the Beverly Hills boutique! Big mistake, huge.....Lol!!!!

I thought there might be a little saving but that's ridiculous. I work in Purchasing, so I get quotes for a living.

I had to get quotes 12 months ago to put in our home loan valuation and ABC and Kresta wouldn't give me the time of day as (and one of them admitted this to me) it's a waste of time as you're only needing the quote for the bank. They also weren't interested in helping me work out what I wanted, suggesting verticals and the odd roller blind and when I suggested shutters, dismissing them like they were out of budget. What they didn't factor in when giving me their crap service is that, although I only needed I quote then, we did need to eventually purchase our window treatments from someone - what a shame they missed out on my order of wooden shutters, cellular blinds and sheers, a bit more substantial than builders range verticals.
