I tried to respond to your comments...Dear Anonymous<br />I tried to respond to your comments though email but it went to no-reply@blogspot.com which I doubt you received,therefore I can only communicate with you through my blog. Which by the way is intended for us to promote and help our business and our current vendors businesses grow,not to discuss issues that past vendors may have. That being said you certainly had issues I feel are important enough to discuss here if this is the only way you wish to discuss them,anonymously that is. <br />You are correct in saying that we will have to answer to one and only one in the end,I take it you meant our God. You should also know then that God's word says Matthew 18:15<br />"Moreover if your brother sins against you, go and tell him his fault between you and him alone. If he hears you, you have gained your brother."<br />If you feel like we have done something wrong to you please feel free to contact us by phone or email and we will set aside some time to address the issues you have been harboring for sometime.If in fact you are truly a past vendor then you are someone we considered a friend and certainly would want to hear you out and resolve the problem, because that is who we are NOT the terrible things you said in your comments,which as the administrator of the blog I have every right to delete and respond to,NOT as a confession of guilt but as a way to protect our character that you have taken the same liberty to assassinate anonymously on the world wide web. Matthew 7:1-3<br />Jesus' famous reprimand for those who spend lots of time judging others, while ignoring their own faults. We certainly wouldn't want to be judged in the same way we judge others--so leave the judging to God, and focus on correcting your own weaknesses instead. <br />Keep that in mind when you make these accusations.<br />I am not going to even begin to list all of the ways we have bent over backwards to put our vendors first,to keep them happy,there is not enough space here and there's no use,you call me a liar anyway which if you know your bible at all you should be very careful about calling anyone!<br />Proverbs 26:4-5<br />Do not answer a fool according to his folly, lest you also be like him. Answer a fool according to his folly, lest he be wise in his own eyes.<br /> Proverbs 16:7<br /> When a man's ways please the Lord, He makes even his enemies to be at peace with him.<br /><br />Following God's law is the key to peace. When we live by God's ways, we learn the way to peace. Living God's ways doesn't mean all people will like who we are, but they will like what we are—peacemakers!<br />Hope to hear from you!<br />Natalie &PaulCarriage House Antiqueshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14180229644532995419noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5395203624132863000.post-52298703992815170132010-09-20T18:41:30.891-04:002010-09-20T18:41:30.891-04:00Dear Anonymous!
First of all it always amazes me w...Dear Anonymous!<br />First of all it always amazes me when people have such "truth" to say yet hide behind "anonymous"...wow I guess I have haters out there..followers,or stalkers that have so much negativity and jealousy they have to vent on my blog. Which fellow retailers did I put down? I think what I said was that "Our vendors are the reason why we have survived through the recession and we are in business because of them,not the other way around!!! I have learned so much from all of the great dealers we have rented booths to,(there is NO way, any one person can know it all) over the past 5 years".<br /> I have NEVER stolen one thing from a vendor,and lying to save face? I'm not a liar either..my accounting is done by a professional accountant and by no means is any penny unaccounted for! An audit would be welcome,and handled by my accountant.We pay our taxes every three months,which will change with the HST to yearly but we are keeping the 13% separate from the cash flow.The peddy cash in the till goes home at night because we have been broken into and a record is kept of each bill and the change so therefore another false accusation.<br />In the past 5 years we have experienced success along with slow economic times,just like every other small business does,our first two years were the best,then 08 was the worst,09 and 10 have progressively gotten better. Are we making tonnes of money here? No but do we owe anyone,or have any debt to credit cards or creditors NO!!!That's how we operate..plain and simple if we don't have the money we don't buy!<br />Anything else you'd like to know? I'd be happy to tell you, cuz it's not all the exciting but I suppose if you have nothing better to do than hide behind a monitor anonymously, and have nothing good to say..then maybe you should say nothing at all! Running a business is tough,but then again you know it all.<br />Natalie & PaulCarriage House Antiqueshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14180229644532995419noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5395203624132863000.post-74728277612220861492010-09-20T15:19:58.925-04:002010-09-20T15:19:58.925-04:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
