    Smiley Ordered a PS Super Pole!

    I am so excited, I just ordered the Platinum Stages Super Pole! It should arrive in the next 2 weeks. I'll post a review of it after trying it out.

    Whoo-hoo, I can't wait to practice some new moves!

    Ugh. I just called since it's been almost 3 weeks since I ordered the pole. They said they are waiting on the standard 6" piece for the pole and it should be ready to be shipped by the end of the week.

    When I asked about the money back guarantee plus 10%, she said she could ship the rest of the pieces now, and the 6" piece when available. Since I can't use the pole without the 6" piece, I said to just ship it all when it is ready.

    Pretty irritating. I was originally told the pole would arrive in less than 2 weeks, and now it will be longer than 3 weeks. I just want the frickin pole now.

    I heard of other girls having a problem with the poles being delivered.

    Who has a business missing pieces?

    Sometimes business run out of stock on certain pieces - suppliers/manufacturers don't always have it or get it out on time, which causes the whole chain to be delayed. BUT, it seems this is an ongoing theme in this case, which reflects more on the retailer than their suppliers....

    I have my own story regarding PS.... but since they are a sponsor I shall say nothing but if you want PM me and I'll let you know.

    I may have many faults, but being wrong ain't one of them.

    If you are looking for a really good pole, you should check this supplier out first:

    I don't get it...it just goes to VainNY's member page...



    But, being that Sh0t posted it this way...I am going to take it that he has intimate knowledge of this information...

    I just called Platinum Stages since it's been almost 1 month since ordering. They said the pole should go out tomorrow or Monday. When I pressed her, she said she would ship it 2-day expedited at no cost. So hopefully I will be able to provide a review of it middle to late next week.

    So far I'm not overly impressed with their customer service. Hopefully the quality of the pole will make up for it...

    I try to preach to people that PS is a horrible place to order from!!! Every single case Ive heard of is that they have problems with them, but when PS posts on here, they portray themselves to be wonderful and very helpful..apparently not the case! I ordered mine from lilmynx.com Probably cheaper than PS, and I DID get mine in one week like they promised.

    I think they are comparable in price to lil mynx. The base price is lower, but once you add in the cost of the case, additional extensions, etc., it comes out about the same. I do like the fact that the PS pole has a wide-based top and bottom to deter falling. However, I am getting pretty frustrated with their customer service. I was originally told it would ship in less than 2 weeks, and now we're looking at over 1 month. If the pole hasn't shipped by Monday, I think I may cancel my order and go with Lil Mynx. A local gym sells the lil mynx removable/pro pole with case for less than the PS super pole.

    The big question will be whether PS will honor their original statement to refund the pole cost plus 10% if it doesn't ship on time. Funny how that "promise" is no longer on their website...

    hello girls

    ive been looking over this site for a long time but didnt want register untill i came across this thread. I felt i had to tell you about my ongoing problem with PS along with a large number of people in the uk.

    i decieded that after many years of dancing all over the world that it wasnt for me anymore and that i wanted to study and also to set up my own school in london. so about a year ago i began looking for portable poles that i could use to teach on at different venues. i came across PS. at this time they had the ajustable one so i brought 2 at a considerable expence to myself(some where in the region of $650). PS said that it would be dispached in 24hours. after 3 months and some very strong emails,phone calls from the UK and a threat to get my money back they arrived. upon arrival they wanted me to pay a further £260 for "postage and packing" which i was told was in the price i payed via their website. ofcouse i told them that they could take the poles back and i nolonger wanted them and would like a full refund(they would not give me a full refund). low and behold i got a call to say they would waver the astonomical charge.i accepted the poles but didint set up my business for a while. when i did the rubber foot kept falling off and was lost ( months on im still waiting for the foot) .i had been using for about 2 months month when the worst thing can happen THE POLE FELL DOWN taking a student with it. i had done nothing different in putting up the pole and it was as always tight. thankfully my student wasnt hurt but just a little shaken.I got on to PS who fobbed me off with some stupid story about a vaulted ceiling mount. this was absolute rubish and from the way they were talking to me this had happened b4. the reason it fell over is because there upper and low feet has to much movement in it and when sideways pressure it put on it it slips and falls.

    needles to say even though they say they come with a full warrenty they will not replace my poles which are still not a year old. i am now to scared to use the poles as i dont want them to fall down.i would put them on ebay to get some money back but i dont want to endanger peoples lives.

    The reason PS have not delivered yet is because the were in such a rush to get the super pole out. the reason for this is the x-pole.this is a compleetly portable pole that been it the design process for the last 18months PS have seen the x-pole website and they have copied the x-pole design(wide top and base and even much of the blurb on the site).they needed to get the super pole on the market B4 x-pole did so they could pretend that they were the first to come up with the idea. but as you have experienced they have taken lots of orders which they can not forfill as in their greedyness and panic they dont actualy have a product. Make your own choice but many people from around the world can not be wrong.get your money back with the 10% if i were you or it could be an even longer wait and very bad after sale service.

    check out and go to the forum to see what people in the UK have been saying about PS.

    (sorry would have spell checked but it doesnt seam to work)

    I really cant remember, lol. I had my customer order it for me, so when he gets back Ill email him and see if he remembers. I had it in my favorites, and I just looked for it, but hubby decided to reorganize them and I think he deleted it. Ill check again though.

    thanks for that RD

    kittykat did you ever recieve your platinumstages pole because because they are telling everyone in the UK that they have stock.

    check it out:





    to be honest it seams to me they are too busy drumming up business they can not handle. perhaps a little less time on forums and a little more time spent on customer service is in order!

    I called Laurie today and she said the pole would go out today. She said she was off yesterday, so it didn't go out as she had promised. She said it will arrive on Thursday. I'll post again once it arrives. I did receive a shipping notification, so "something" is on its way to me, I just hope it's exactly what I ordered.

    Scarlet, I too checked out all the reviews on mypole prior to ordering. Most people didn't have good things to say about PS, but I figured it was a shipping overseas issue. I agree with you, seems like they are more focused on generating business than on building the product.
