I called "Appliance Repair Specialists", serving Tacoma, Washington, to repair my oven door. The 4 screws that attach the oven handle had fallen out....a pretty simple fix, one would think. They said that they would call at 8 AM on Monday, Oct 28, 2013, to set up an appointment for that morning. My wife waited for a call until about 10 AM, and then she had to call them to secure the appointment. When the tech arrived, the job took 20 minutes to put the oven door back together. He was really nice and efficient. My bill, including sales tax, was $163.70....which equates to $491.10 per hour!!! Their yellow pages ad promotes "no travel charges" and "low cost service". Their web site touts "senior discount". I am 65, and my wife is 63....so I think we should qualify. None was offered or even mentioned by the technician. The following day (today), when calling to inquire about the charges, the telephone receptionist was very inhospitable, to the point of being antagonistic. She seemed quite disturbed with having to deal with me at all. In my opinion, this company is NOT the company you would EVER want to call for appliance repair. 5 hours later, I am still awaiting a call from the tech, who the receptionist said could explain the charges to me...but she, apparently, could not. ...read more

This is the ABSOLUTE WORST COMPANY I have ever been associated with! 1st they prey on the desperation of their employees, by offering what seems to be a lucrative means to income in a declining economy. They 1st train you the right, way, but later on, they order you to break every rule there is. I worked for them for 2 or 3 months, because they never gave me time to look for employment elsewhere. There were times when I received checks for under $20 when I had made the company well over $1000... There has also been instances where the company owner has physically beaten employees. NEVER allow these people in ur home. its not the workers that are evil doers. it is shah. He even stole my iMac computer while i was working for him. He personally ordered me to LIE to Numerous customers, and there are many instances when he threatens to leave his workers stranded if sales aren't met. I can remember working from 8am to 10 pm many days, and earning no wages. DO NOT DO WORK WITH THIS COMPANY! SEA TAC DISTRIBUTION IS A CLAN OF CRIMINALS- Contact me at genodiamondsound@gmail if you have any questions or would like to speak with me concerning ANY of my statements (Especially You mrs. P) ...read more
