I have come to the conclusion that some of the people on this site have not purchased from the company and really can not comment on the items as they have not used them. I looks as if jealousy is a factor that a young company have been trying to make a business and should be encouraged, just a shame one of Dragons den doesn't read this, perhaps I will give them a call! Some of the names on here keep popping up every day, lots of time on your hands perhaps you should start a business or get a job!! or is this in your bosses work time. I run my own business and wish I could have thought this up ! I know at that age I would not have even attempted it, so hats off to them. Every business makes mistakes ask any of the large companies,

Why does the jealousy card keep getting played by the newbies? Jealous of what, exactly?
I totally agree that at such a young age they have shown initiative and courage setting up their business. No argument there.That's the good bit.
Yes, every business does make mistakes, and that is where Shwmae differ... MOST companies will employ the "customer is always right" adage, as I mentioned somewhere earlier. This means that if they have delays in postage/ sourcing stock, or something which turns out to be unfit for purpose, rather than chasing their detractors around numerous internet forums bitching and making excuses, they PUT IT RIGHT!

Exactly this!

However pinkbambi I do hope your horses enjoy their new onesies, that they fit correctly, are finished to a high standard and delivered in a timely manner. I trust that they're not needed to help with any "sin conditions" (sic) as stated on the FB pages.

In fact I have been a customer of theirs and have used a onesie on my palomino yearling as he is a nightmare to keep clean, thanks to the onesie I have managed to not only save mountains of bath times but have been successful in gaining several Championships with him. After hours of reading I have come to the conclusion that some of the people on this site have not purchased from the company and really can not comment on the items as they have not used them.

It is true that I cannot comment on the items as I have not ordered any. But I have not actually commented on the items themselves as I am more concerned about the attitude of the owner(s). I don't need to have placed an order to see that there are some very unhappy customers and that's enough to suggest that I would be taking a big risk if I did order.
Ironically, there are some people on here who also can't comment on the items, in spite of having placed an order, simply because the items haven't turned up.

Really, I am not jealous -infact I wouldn't swap places with the directors of this company for anything! And just for the record, I do have a job myself (actually I have my own business).

I'm very pleased that you are happy with your onesie, although I suspect that winning several championships has more to do with your yearling's conformation and way of going.

Had to laugh about the Dragon's Den reference though. You know how fussy they are about people being red hot on the figures, as well as positive customer feedback and general excellent business acumen. And then there's the question they always ask about ideas like this - does Shwmae have a patent? I don't believe they do as other companies are already making onesies. And as the dragons would say, 'what's to stop another company wiping you out by making these better and/or cheaper?' Somehow I can't see them going for this...why would Theo want to spend his 'children's inheritance' on a business in big trouble?

And I'm afraid that's the truth - even if there are some happy customers, there's a hell of a lot of unhappy ones and the business is definitely in trouble. The company directors simply must acknowledge this as a first step in sorting out the mess. It's not going to go away just by ignoring it.

Youre right, who wouldnt be jealous of having their name and their company trashed on the net by so many unhappy customers for all to see, its what we're all striving for in life ...... Go and have a wee think about it !
 
why do so many happy customers and the owners think that the onesie has made their horse's win so much. Its not a onesie its the horse. I've worked on show yards and not one onesie in sight and a lot of top horses. Figure that out. Actual its a lot of ******* elbow grease I can ensure you and hard work that's how you get your winner
 
I am asking if the majority of these unhappy customers are not just a make up to try and stop some people from making a go of a new company, how do you know what is true and false do you know them personally ? and why would Shwmae they not have a business plan to put to an investor I might have a look myself if they are willing looks like it could be a good thing especially if people are trying to copy and yes the item did fit perfectly and saved loads of time and stress. If you own your own company you will know that anyone is open to criticism especially from competitors as it is tough out there, you are always open to scammers who will try and undermine you if they can. It can also be true that to close a company the easiest way is to make accusations which could be false in order to persuade people not to purchase and this could be from competitors who knows ? none of you know you are all guessing and taking what people say as fact ! all the comments could be classed as slander and are now in writing not wise thing, lots of pages from all these people who are jumping on the slander wagon, messages can be traced easily , nothing is secret if needed, still as I say its all in black and white now so too late for them. I am all for the onesie as it is fit for purpose for my showing season thank you Shwmae if you are reading this I will be ordering in the early spring ! Thats me no more to say.

Lol I actually have a job sweetheart, a pretty great one thanks :) although I'm on box rest after surgery so will be out for three months but you and your kind are certainly providing me with enough daily boredom relief and entertainment :D lots to be said for Internet trolls after all :D

As for jealousy I have to say I'm certainly not jealous of someone who can run what could be a great business into the ground with their attitude to complaints, if you can't take criticism then you have no job as a company director. Having been in area sales and store opening previously you have to listen to the customers the good and the bad or your business will fail and this is exactly what has happened.

I did snigger at the dragons den bit, the dragons would have this company directors bits on a plate after this fiasco!
 
Silver lining,you clearly have no children,or if you have,are not looking after them entirely by yourself.
There's been many a time whilst I was bringing my children up,that I longed for my 12hr days in the office and the 3hr round trip commute, in preference to the 20/7 job that the kids were.

fully agree I sometimes crave the madness of a job where I can be an adult not someone's mum.

By the way I'm not saying that being a mum is hard then any job so hope no one takes offence
 
Pinkbambi what's your youngsters show name? Interested as i was quite into showing when my veteran was able and my next horse I will be looking at for decent showing as well as all round good person qualities. Quite interested in people's results I'm a member of several showing forums :)
 
Its almost like the daily wind up show ... who's turn is it today ... Pink thingy, Silver wotsit or the hippy Hunter.

They don't have anything new to say so they keep on repeating the same old same old.

Personally I am really glad that everything is on this forum .... especially some of the SMF posts, all valuable stuff!
 
Beforehand,I was irritated (for the wronged customers) at the injustice of the Schwmae shambles but now,(now the correct advice is out there to help them get recompense) I just find it all really quite pathetically amusing. Trip trap! ;)

It is very unlikely that a large group of mainly strangers would deliberately and cold bloodedly run a blameless company into the ground just for sh8ts and giggles. I know HHO has a rep for being hard faced sometimes, but that accusation is beyond the pale. There has been lots of good advice given, amongst the ranting, and all of that advice, has, without exception, been ignored or thrown back in the face of those trying to help.

More proof of SMF in disguise, same questions and deliberate blindness to the cold hard facts :rolleyes:

And this
 
Much as I hate to be a party pooper, may I just reiterate that SMF does seem to have listened to some advice and I suspect a lot of the new posters' comments on here are designed to get the thread deleted. It's really important for it to stay here both for those people who are trying to get their money back or product sent and for those who may be searching for information.

Please be careful what you post so that the thread stays.
 
Sorry haven't got the spare time as you all for the constant ranting as you say its all been said before again and again and again, oh and by the way, I was running my business from home when my children were toddlers and you could too if you got of this site, as you have stated you haven't even purchased from the company you are just feeding off the others.
