Name of Shopper: Dan
MYSTERY SHOP CHECKLIST:
1. How was the greeting/ welcome/ call answered? Very friendly, warm, and professional.
2. Appearance of the store/staff and showroom? The showroom has an industrial feel/factory look - it could be improved to be more retail-looking, but I’m guessing most customers don’t really care about that.
3. Product/industry knowledge of staff? Excellent - expert, in fact - they listened and were able to interpret what I asked for, and they were able to make it exactly as I imagined it.
4. If a quote was required, was it well laid out/ clear? Yes.
5. Did they ask where you found them? No, I have been a customer for a long time.
6. Overall experience 1-10. 10
7. Would you return as a customer/ recommend them to close friends? Yes.
8. Did anyone stand out as exceptional? If so who? Why? Trevor and the other guy are exceptional- tech guys sometimes are awkward with customers - but not in this case.
How was the process if you made a purchase/booked a job? If so, refer to the Trusted Guarantees and give an overall mark on each if applicable.
I did buy a custom case

I want a relationship, NOT just a transaction, and they provide that - Trevor has created that, and he makes time for that as part of doing business. The workmanship is excellent - this case is a very special custom one-off design, and it is amazing. Just what I asked for. I have ordered online cases from other places in the past and have had bad experiences with things not fitting properly. I have to say, I am picky but I have never had anything but outstanding with Trevor at Saskatoon Bag & Case.
THANK YOU DAN FOR YOUR HONEST REVIEW!

ANY OTHER COMMENTS?
Everybody absolutely loved the cupcakes and icing !
Unfortunately I never got to taste the large carrot cake birthday cake because my daughter and I gave it away to a gal whose mom couldn’t afford a cake and also celebrated her bday at the party.
Apparently her face lit up when she saw cake So was worth it
It’s my compassionate daughter Alicia who heard about this and came and pitched the idea to me and how could I say no? Made me happy to see my daughter flow like that and to brighten someone else’s day - Ezna ( Mystery Shopper & birthday girl)

"I made an appointment with Cam because I was interested in selling some gold. My mom had a lot of jewellery and I really didn't know what was real and what was fake. I was a little apprehensive about going in because you just never know if they will tell you the truth and give you the money you really should be getting. Cam put all my fears to rest. It was such a great experience that I have already told friends and family to go through their jewellery and take it in.
I would have NO issues with going back again. In fact, as soon as I got home I was on the hunt for more jewellery kicking around that we don't want. He even taught me a few lessons on what to look for if you are unsure if an item is real or not. I had a lot of fun!"
