OK Furniture Swakopmund: Some of the products is quality, but they have a lot of damage items standing on their showroom floor. I will never buy any living room sets or mattresses there, I really thought some customers would be mannered enough not to eat and drink while siting on the furniture, you can see the cold drink bottle markings on the furniture and some times food laying on the floors. Those cleaners (or I think they are) could not even vacuum the carpets properly or clean the dust of the furniture!!!
Entering the shop you will see 2 or some times 1 security guard there, they don't greet you, they have ear phones in their ears listing to music, oh man and chewing bubble gum ( I hate that stuff) Most of the time they stand in the door way talking to friends or family outside and doesn't even consider the clients walk in and out. I do see that you have to get your documents stamped at the door but then I saw it is so easy to walk out with small items due to not concentrating on the door or the bags/ trollies that customers is walking in with. In my opinion the security is also the image for the company!!!
For the sales team there, there is only 2 persons I would ask to help me, for the rest is useless, not neat, also chewing gum, and if your white, German, or any other raise looking white they will not help you accept 2 of them. Wonder why bother to open a shop in Swakopmund, after all it's a German town. One sales lady there sometimes stinks of alcohol, when they advertise specials and I'm there to have a look I would walk big circles around her. About 7 months back I bought a DVD player there and that sales guy had a attitude problem, maybe it is because I'm white, he could not even answer few questions I asked about the product, the way he is leaning against the shelve and chewing on a peace of binding strap while talking to me is a NO NO in my eyes, please sir show some respect!!! The shop is not in the bush under a tree!!! and if you don't like whites or Germans then put a face on that show you care or quit your job and do something ells that doesn't involve clients.
After that ordeal I thought walking out was a better option but then the cashier was a friendly smiling lady that make that purchase worth while, till a older white lady there start using bad language at the back behind the cashiers counter. I thought to my shelf if that is the manager it explain why the place is looking like that and the staff there. Further more if I buy something big there I will not allow those drivers to deliver it to me, I saw how they handle items and there attitudes are bad. There cloths looks like the delivery car, tarn and dirty.
I hope they will improve there business in Swakopmund
Will give 2 stars for those that are trying there.
