  • 1/5 Blake D. 10 months ago on Google • 30 reviews
    Update: they’ve now gotten people they know to leave 5 star reviews to refute mine😂. So embarrassing. Terrible store. I went here to get a quote on two custom frames for two paintings. The guy refused to provide a quote unless I came with the paintings, even though I knew exactly which frames I wanted and the size of the paintings. I returned the next day with the two paintings. Two men work working. One walked directly past me and went to the back. The other saw me standing there, didn’t acknowledge me, then helped a guy who walked in after me. I stood there for more than 5 minutes just waiting to be acknowledged. It was as though I was invisible to the guy. I walked out and went to MOLDURSANT, which is where I should have gone in the first place. Update: After giving a very truthful review of my experience, the business attempted to rewrite the story and paint me as some kind of demanding, entitled person for simply asking to be acknowledged after standing in their store for several minutes. World domination - what on earth are you talking about? So, I will expand on my review to tell even more truths. When I went to the store yesterday, the young guy working knew absolutely nothing. I asked if the samples on the wall were available, and the response was that he "didn't think so". I asked if some of the art on the walls was for sale, and he didn't know the answer to that question, either. He climbed up on a ladder and took one off the wall, and said he doesn't see a price so it must not be for sale. Every question I had, he said he'd have to ask his dad. I ABSOLUTELY told him that I had the size of the paintings. I also showed him two frames I wanted. In fact, when I returned to the store, today, those two pieces were still on the table. I know what I want. I know what I need. I do not need your store's opinion on what is best for MY paintings in MY house. The young guy told me to come back when I have the paintings, and that was the only way to obtain a quotation. I don't know if he is telling you something different, or if you're trying to hide this fact from the public, but it is absolutely what happened. He literally refused to give a quote without the paintings there, so again, your response is a lie. Also, not a single person told me "good afternoon" when I stood in the store waiting, today. That's another lie. After helping to unload two large frames from a car, the older guy walked in, right past me, and into the office in the back of the shop. The young guy walked in, looked at the frames that had just been brought in, looked at me, and didn't speak a word. I actually didn't think he was an employee, since he didn't acknowledge me. I thought he was a customer until the owner of the two large frames came into the store and this employee began conversing with him about the frames. No one told me hello. No one told me that they were busy, but would be with me when they were free. No one told me good afternoon. No one acknowledged that I was standing there with two rolled up canvases in my bag, waiting for someone to assist. I was invisible, apparently. And yes, Moldursant is a fantastic frame store - highly recommended. I have used them several times in the past. I visited your store because I saw that you had more of the type of frames I was looking for for my two new paintings. However, I'd rather go to Moldursant and get greeted by its friendly, helpful staff, get actual answers to my questions, get quotes right at that moment, and give my money to them, even if that means I don't get the frames I really wanted. That's how good customer service works. I don't care how old your business is. Your customer service is terrible - rude and unknowledgeable. Instead of acknowledging that your service (well, lack of service) was the problem, apologizing, and asking to rectify the situation, you tried to portray me as some sort of rude, entitled person because I simply wanted some customer service. You also lied several times in your response, but called me the liar. We will take our money elsewhere.

    Lovely shop with very helpful staff. Would highly recommend to anyone thinking of getting their framing done here. It's great to know that the business keeps on this same family in 1858.

    (Translated by Google) Congratulations to this magnificent house, which in its beautiful splendor illuminates the winding downtown streets of this beautiful city that is Porto. I now know that you are the oldest frame house in the world. One thing I already knew, my family has been a client of your home since the mid-fourteenth century. Well thank you for the great work! (Original) Parabéns a esta magnifica casa, que no seu belo esplendor, ilumina as ruas sinuosas da baixa desta bela cidade que é o Porto. Soube agora que sois a casa mais antiga de molduras do mundo. Uma coisa eu já sabia, a minha família é cliente da vossa casa desde os meados do século XIV. Bem hajam pelo excelente trabalho!

    (Translated by Google) Very bad. I regret expressing this opinion, however I cannot write anything else. I asked for a quote a month ago, I called and spoke to 2 employees, I called and they replied that they would take care of it.... they called me and made the usual promises.... anyway.... (Original) Muito mau. Lamento expressar esta opinião, no entanto não posso escrever outra coisa. Pedi orçamento à um mês, liguei e falei com 2 funcionários, telefono e respondem que vão já tratar.... telefonam-me e fazem as promessas do costume.... enfim....

    Estou absolutamente encantada com a qualidade excepcional das molduras que encontrei na loja Santos e Irmãos! Cada peça é um verdadeiro trabalho de arte, e a variedade de estilos e materiais é impressionante. O atendimento ao cliente foi incrível, com uma equipa que demonstra um profundo conhecimento e paixão pelo que fazem. As minhas peças agora estão ainda mais deslumbrantes graças às molduras personalizadas em detalhe que adquiri na casa. Nenhuma recomendação faz jus à experiência que tive.

    Molduras únicas, artesanais, e feitas com atenção ao mais ínfimo detalhe. Para não falar dos funcionários da loja, uma empresa familiar e das mais antigas da especialidade, que são de uma simpatia e genuinidade cada vez menos comuns. Espero voltar em breve!
