I bought a Pilates Chair in Jan & have been using it for about 3 months now. Today one of the springs broke so I cannot use it. I called your customer service & was told they would ship another set but it has to go thru higher up. Cannot remember her exact words. I asked if I could pay to have it shipped so I would get it sooner & was told no. Is there anyway to receive this faster then 7-10 days. I use it almost daily & really hate to wait until the week of the 17th to receive the springs so I can use it. I have no problem for paying for a faster shipping method. Thanks for any help you can provide.

@Paulette-QVC Thanks for your help. I called the # you posted. The lady I talked to said she did not know why QVC keeps giving out information for them when Stamina has nothing to do with the Pilates chair. She told me I need to contact Life's a Beach. I found their website with an email contact but no phone #.

Guess I will just have to wait for the replacement from QVC. Hope the new springs last longer then 3 months. I sure don't want to have to replace those 4 times per year. That would get expensive at $60 per set. At least this set is no charge since it's under warranty.

@Nightowlz Thank you for that information.  I will forward this to the proper department for further research. We are given the manufacture information to provide customer for assistance with parts because it should be a quicker process since QVC does not house spare parts.  I am very sorry for the wait. You should be contacted soon.

@Paulette-QVC Thanks for your help. I received tracking info from UPS that a package from QVC would be delivered today. I assume it's the springs since I don't have any orders right now. I just checked the tracking & now it shows Damage box was empty & sender will be notified.

Just wondering now how much longer it's going to take to get the replacement springs? Will QVC ship another set of springs hopefully ASAP or do I have to wait for a dispute with UPS? I know it's not Q's fault but I'm not very Happy about the situation.

Info from UPS site below.

04/14/2017	6:47 A.M.	Damage to package contents was reported. We will notify the sender. / We're investigating the damage claim.
	04/14/2017	6:39 A.M.	Merchandise is missing. UPS will notify the sender with additional details. / All merchandise missing, empty carton was discarded. UPS will notify the sender with details of the damage.

@Paulette-QVC I received your email. Thanks for your help. After I received the UPS email showing something would be delivered on Fri I figured it was for the springs. I was surprised when I checked the tracking. I have never had that happen before.

[Nightowlz]

@Paulette-QVC I received the other set of springs on Fri. Almost did not receive them since the bubble bag had a hole in one end & one spring coming out a hole in the other end when I did receive them.

I guess the warranty must not be for a new set of springs. The set I received are used & not really usable IMO since they make a loud awful squeaking noise while in use. The springs that came on it did not squeak.

Not very happy paying $200 for the Pilates Chair & after 3 months we had to buy a new set of springs. My husband bought a new set for $40 & they don't squeak.

QVC & Life's A Beach should not be selling this if that's all the longer a set a springs will last.

[Nightowlz]

@Paulette-QVC I guess no more replies. I assume all I get with the warranty is a used set of squeaky springs you cannot use. Seems to me they should be replaced with a set that can be used. If DH had not bought another set I would still be sitting here not able to use it. Is Q going to make this right or not? IMO Q needs to ship me a set of springs I can use & I can send you back these squeaky springs.
