I had a delivery on 05/30 from 11am-1pm that’s never came nor did I ever get a call why. I later called 2 days later. I was told the delivery driver was over packed. Said it’ll be another week or week and half. I was told these were in storage still so I could go pick them up. I did. Found out these couches were on display since that Monday before 05/30. They said they’ll deliver Saturday which was 06/01. Called at like 1pm they said they’ll be heading out soon. I get called 2hrs later with an excuse of truck breaking down and not working even though the guy was heading out already. which doesn’t make since?? Same day I went out to Modesto to retrieve my couches. I didn’t know they were displayed couches and wanted to talk negotiating the price. Said no it wouldn’t work. So the guy in Modesto offered to take off 100. So I canceled my order, The people from Stockton RAC on Wilson way, Basically told me off and was very rude and said “Go ahead and cancel and to let you know your payment you sent in isn’t refundable” then hangs up the phone. Both myself and the people in the RAC in Modesto looked at one another in shock. Dont not go to RAC on Wilson Way, In the Parking lot of Food 4 Less I recommend Modesto by far, Manny and Marissa will set you up with the goods. They are amazing people and give excellent customer service
