Owners/Managers Seeking Information and Opinions From Customers

Yes, I can't wait until you go to the authorities and tell them that you have been threatened by the truth.

As I said before, I don't have a grudge against canadian tire. I just don't like your disrespect of customers that I have discovered reading this thread. I am sure the vast majority of CT employees are not as narrow-minded as you. Why would you even say the things about customers that you have said here?

Canadian Tire does not list the replacement part I need and when I call the manufacturer they say the part is not stocked in the store. I have given you the information about my machine. If you can prove me wrong I am very happy to go buy it at the store.

As I've already said, hose and nozzle kits are at the store for warranty issues....no cost to the customer. If it's not under warranty, you can buy a hose or nozzle at the store. For any other replacement part, the store will order whatever is needed from our Simonize division or let you know who repairs them in your area if it is beyond the warranty and isn't a simple thing like a wand or hose.
But I still think your post is faker advocate using one of his many many personalities. Read all the posts, it's actually pretty humorous. And pretty easy to spot.

Welcome to CanadianTireSucks.net.

I see you’ve already met Angry CT Guy.

Congratulations on figuring out so quickly that Angry CT Guy likes to post a lot of lies here. One of his favourites is to pretend consumers wrote something they didn’t, then say that the consumer lied.

You just kind of get used to it, I think.

To make the bigger lies easier to refute, there's a list, here:

https://www.canadiantiresucks.net/g...y-do-ct-defenders-post-so-many-lies-here.html

About this “Advocate” stuff? That’s just another thing Angry CT Guy likes to foam at the mouth about. Apparently, any web site with a “Donate” button asking for credit card information is a “fake advocate site”, and anyone who posts there is a “faker advocate: “Faker advocates on fake advocate sites would not need my credit card info, would not have a disclaimer to the merchantability of this site and wouldn't be looking for donations.”

Here’s the original post:

https://www.canadiantiresucks.net/g...rranty-no-refund-no-exchange-40.html#post3790

But this stuff about “600 suck.com” sites? Nobody’s really figured that out yet. Best guess: the more complaints a store has, the more successful it must be. Pretty funny!

Would it be nice to just ban Angry CT Guy from the site? Sure, but this site is about ‘free speech’. Maybe too free

So, it’s probably best just to ignore this …. person. They just refuse to be rational.

Sorry? Who's posting now? Is it DavidLer, Gizzard1959, CTH8er, an American first time poster?

Just too hard to determine who faker advocate will be, but the good news is, it is so easy to spot his fake posts, answers to himself, and opinions passed off as knowledge.

Sad really, but he gets called on it each and every day

Tsk,Tsk faker advocate

Don't forget to donate...pick any of the 600 sucks.com sites

Why, oh why, are there sooooo many sucks.com sites....lol

I'll see if I can wipe enough mouth-foam off this post, to dig out Angry CT Guy's requests for info or opinions ...

Sorry?

About what? You'll need to calm down and use your 'big boy voice'.

Someone who, like you, prefers to simply go by "Unregistered".

That was an easy one to answer!

Unregistered said:

We can never be 100% sure, but I know it's not me (I guess that's just my "opinion"?). And to anyone who's not deluded, it's clearly the American.

(And any genuine store owner or manager would be wise to listen to what he has to say.)

Besides, nobody would need to fake a post like his. The thread https://www.canadiantiresucks.net/personal-stories/68-simoniz-scam.html is the most popular non-admin thread on this site. There are lots of stories just like the American's, on this site, Red Flag Deals, Complaints Board, and so on.

So, that was another easy one to answer!

How about a harder question? Maybe something about the Sale of Goods Act?

Well, there are a lot of people who don't like poor service, products, sales practices, return policies, and so on.

These people are willing to put their own time and money into creating a place where consumers will have a voice in these matters, and to help share information about which businesses are bad, and what's so bad about them, what scams to watch out for, etc.

Also, from the links I've seen you post, the vast majority have been for U.S. companies, with complaints from U.S. consumers. Since their market is about 10 times the size of Canada's, that would explain why there are so many U.S.-based complaints sites, including the "sucks" variety.

It's worth noting that somehow Canadian Tire has managed to do such a bad job, that there are quite a few complaints on the U.S. sites, like ComplaintsBoard and PissedConsumer.

You're welcome!

My machine is out of warranty and if the stores have the wand, then it is old stock. I looked on the web site and did see replacement guns/wands, but they look a little different. So then I called Simoniz and they told me I needed to buy it from them at this point. The rep knew that the wand was no longer shipped to the store I assume.

Yes, I am an American living in Nova Scotia, soon to move back. When I first got here I thought "wow" this is a great guy's store. Then I heard people call it "crappy tire." I think that mixed feelings about CT is common. People in NS are a bit cheap and like everyone, want a bargain. But you hate the feeling of being ripped off by overpriced junk.

I think CT has made a mistake with it's deep discount sale strategy where you really have to wait for an item to be on sale or otherwise you will have overpaid. This, along with questionable product quality for many items means your value proposition is unclear.

The Crappy People are looking for volunteers to do their research for them again:

Can you provide the link to even one retailer that has a no questions asked policy on inflatable kayaks?

Click to expand...

Any takers?

(I assume they are looking for someone whose policy sucks almost as much as their own. Good luck with that!)

The Crappy People want consumers to do some more research for them:

Unregistered said:

... please provide the report of Top 20 Canadian Retailers that apparently we are not on. i wish to know who created the report, which retailers ARE on the list, what is the report measuring, how frequently and when was it last released.

Any takers?

Maybe they will give you one of their defective pressure washers as a reward! They've already decide to send it to the landfill, rather than repair it

it took about 1.5 minutes to find this 2011 deloitte report.

in the list of top global retailers, crappy tire is #127.

that's behind loblaws (40), alimentation couch-tard (48), empire company (58), metro (87) and shopper's drug mart (99).

they can keep their piece of crap pressure washer though - even if it was working that wouldn't be true for long.

Actually no, we've decided to repair it, and give it back to you...that's what you agreed to when you made the purchase, and it's legal. Sorry about your luck.

What i'm actually asking is for you to do your own homework. You're the one claiming that we are recording information that we can't record....i say you're wrong. I know you're wrong. My research is easy, I walk a few hundred feet to the front of the store, hit the green button for returns system and low and behold, the menu comes up! I've told you the answer, you just (as usual) refuse to believe ANYTHING. So go see it with your own two eyes.

Wow, 127th in the WORLD.... for a retailer in little old Canada, not bad!

Unfortunately, a failed attempt to decieve on your part
The original claim back in the day was Top 20 Retailers in Canada. and we are not in the list

Try again

Figures.

A kind-hearted consumer finally does some of their research for them, in an earnest attempt to help.

And what do they get for their efforts?

A slap in the face.

It's so like Crappy Tire to be ungrateful.

You're welcome, Crappy Tire Jerks!

What's all this nonsense about repairs and green buttons?

The question was on top 20 retailers.

The Crappy Tire People sure do get confued easily!

This ought to shut you up on this topic fiNALLY
The claim made on here was that Canadian Tire was not in the top 20 retailers in Canada.

https://www.canadiantiresucks.net/p...pid-return-policy-hide-employee-theft-17.html

Post 166 was the original claim that Canadian Tire is not on the list of top 10 Canadian Retailers, then expanded to not even on the Top 20. Yet this report was never provided, nor any indication as to who created the report, when, what it measures or who else is on the list.

Interestingly enough, the recent post of a Deloitte top retailers in the world, which by the way was a failed attempt to cover up a lie that nobody said In Canada, actually would put Canadian Tire as the 4th Top Canadian Retailer given that Couche Tard, Loblaws and Shoppers Drug Mart are the only Canadian Retailers on the report ahead of us.

Thanks man, that's fantastic of you to help prove that several lies have been told by CT haters, and that we do rank rather high in retailers rankins.

Wow!

A Crappy Person actually got off their ass, and did some research for a change!

Well, actually, they only did 2 bit of research:

- found a claim by an anonymous poster to a site they say nobody reads (i.e. Post #166 on that other thread).
- read a report that a consumer found.

Nice job finally answering your own question, Crappy Person!

Give youself a free Simoniz pressure washer from behind the returns desk!

The Crappy People must be very, very excited!

They finally were able to prove that a significant claim by a consumer posting here was incorrect!

Congratulations, CT Researchers!

(Well, congratulations on reading what a consumer posted. But still, 'congratulations!).

Now, if only they could find some evidence to disprove any of the other significant claims being made by consumers.

Claims about the return policies at Crappy Tire, for instance.

Or the return policies of other retailers.

Or the Sale of Goods Act and the Consumer Protection Act.

Those might be a lot harder - let's see how they do ...

The exercise was not about reading what a poster typed....the exercise was about proving multiple lies were told by one of you haters, and then tried to cover it up with another lie.

1) the original claim was Canadian tire was not in the top 20 canadian retailers list - LIE - no such list exists
2) then you backed up and said nobody ever made the claim - LIE - link was posted to show what claim was made
2) the third claim was made that the list wasn't top canadian retailers, that it was a global list published by Deloitte - LIE as the original claim was found and posted


other significant claims? Umm okay with pleasure
How about the CT owners aren't millionaires claim - KILLED
How about martha billes isn't rich claim - KILLED
How about the $`1billion loan to buy forzani claim - KILLED

None of those claims were true. All proven to be lies in the last two weeks
