        Its more that it's retaliation for the "you know I'm a Vegan" statements we have all had to endure. If was introduce myself as a connoisseur of all things meat, I would expect some ribbing. Mmmm ribs.

            @FallaM: Have you seen the vegan popup stands they do where they show animals in slaghterhouses? I was in Pitt St mall in Sydney and they did one with blaring speakers and screens held by people with guy Fawkes masks (for some reason, doubt he was a vegan). I kind of get why people retaliate by eating chicken or whatever animal products in front of them as the vegans in that case, are inviting retaliatory behaviour by being so proactive in the first place.Not something I'd waste my time on personally though. But if someone was just being an (profanity), even if there was an annoying vegan that is trying to be a bit pushy, I would say eating meat in front of them is a dick move.

      • scottishdave on 07/12/2022 - 14:44

        In older times, if it wasn't for humans using animal skins for warmth, shelter and tools they would not have been able to live in cooler climates. Synthetics were not invented until relatively recently.
        I have not heard of any archeologists finding any vinyl or polyester fleece in their digs. /s

        Many modern cultures such as Saami and Inuit still rely on animal skins for clothing too. I wear a sheepskin coat and hat when I travel to places with subzero temperatures as no synthetic alternative is better.

          Deer populations are massive in SE Aust and in Tassie at the moment and are probably having a serious impact on the environment. Not a good use of a neg for this deal though as it has nothing to do with the topic.

      Tasmanian Grey 'Soft Fur' Kangaroo Rugs

      • Wolfy on 07/12/2022 - 10:04
        +16

        We purchased "1 × Kangaroo Rug - rug $59.00" from you in October 2021, which is the same product as you are selling now.

        The fur NOT soft, the individual hairs are long and aligned in the same way, in some ways its almost like a course brush.
        The skin IS very rigid and feels very thin.
        To me it does NOT "providing superior comfort and warmth".
        My wife who loves the sheepskin rug we also purchased from you does not like the Kangaroo one.
        While the size does match the measurements, it was also much smaller than expected, more wallaby size than kangaroo.

        However, I am not suggesting it is a quality control issue, defective product nor a reason to be negative to this deal (or any others), instead I presume it is just the normal properties of a Kangaroo skin. Kangaroos are not sheep, alpaca's or other animals who have warm, soft luxurious fur. Kangaroos skin/fur is, as I described above, more like cows or goats.

        If you genuinely think that the "1 × Kangaroo Rug - rug $59.00" we purchased should be as you describe: "pure, warm and luxurious Tasmanian Grey 'Soft Fur' Kangaroo. Our kangaroo rug will give your home a deluxe feel, whilst providing superior comfort and warmth" does that mean the product we received is defective and we can return it, to swap for a merino rug which IMHO does match that description? (you are welcome to send me a PM

        Or perhaps should you be more honest and realistic with your marketing spiel for this specific product?

        • MarketingUGGAustraliaOfficial @ UGG Australia on 07/12/2022 - 11:08

          Kangaroos in Tasmania have a much softer coat because of the colder weather conditions in Tassie…

            @UGGAustraliaOfficial: So your customers are giving constructive criticism about how it’s “soft fur” doesn’t live up expectations and all you can do is discredit them? I wasn’t going to neg you but now you just earned yourself another.

                @UGGAustraliaOfficial: Is it soft as in comparable to a sheep? Or is it soft for a kangaroo but still feels like hogs bristles? These are two very different things.

                Also, I have purchased a sheepskin from these guys and it was excellent, no complaints from me.

              • NeverBuyRegPrice on 07/12/2022 - 12:15

                @UGGAustraliaOfficial: I agree. It is a fact. People are comparing it to sheepskin and in comparison it is not as soft. But its soft enough. I use it every day on my office chair. It is so comfortable and feels really good. No product can satisfy everyone but as long as the majority likes it then that's what matters.

                @UGGAustraliaOfficial: It's a fact that the product you're selling is grossly misrepresented in the spiel given. The more you fight with unhappy previous customers, it sort of shows the fight that you have in getting your refund back for low quality items delivered. I did end up getting a full refund on paid return for the joke of a rug that was sent out to me. I know what a soft kangaroo skin feels like, these are not soft. Extremely low quality, poorly processed and overpriced for what they are.

            @UGGAustraliaOfficial: Classic non-sequitur. The notion that living Tasmanian Eastern Greys MAY, at some time during a year, have a softer coat than other roos (no evidence provided) does not mean therefore your treated skins are soft and furry. Just checked your link and it doesn't suggest anything like your claim. You could simply say that we think our skins are reasonably soft and furry. Currently, anyone who receives a skin which isn't soft or furry is entitled to return the item at YOUR cost for either a replacement or a full refund.

        • CommuterPolluter on 07/12/2022 - 12:36

          How big do you think an eastern grey is? They’re small animals. You’re complaining that it matched the size on the listing, but you expected it to be bigger?

        • duncan79 on 08/12/2022 - 20:07

          Seemed like detailed feedback until I got to "While the size does match the measurements, it was also much smaller than expected". What the hell is wrong with all the muppets on here today.

      • competitions on 07/12/2022 - 10:41

        No such thing. Tasmanian does not have a species known as a "Tasmanian Grey 'Soft Fur' Kangaroo" which the OP has mentioned at least twice.

        If these are sourced from Tassie, they are either Forester kangaroo or a Bennetts wallaby.

        • Chazzozz on 07/12/2022 - 10:53

          If they run low on stock there's no shortage of Pademelons I could collect for them off the side of the road. Sadly, there is always a large number along the Bass Highway, despite how quickly Transport Services come along to clear them away.

                happy to post more screenshots :)

                I find it hard to believe that people who post 4 or 5 star reviews would somehow conspire against this store and lie that Ugg Australia offered them incentives to post their positive reviews

                and surely it is not productreview that has offered incentives for 5* reviews of ugg australia as their guidelines state

                We also strongly recommend that businesses ensure that their incentives are compliant with guidelines set by the Australian Consumer and Competition Commission (ACCC), in accordance with the Competition and Consumer Act (2010).

                Would be interested in knowing then who is offering customers incentives for 5* reviews of Ugg Australia, and what those incentives are :)

                  @docians: There is a difference between offering an incentive to post a positive review, and incentive to post a review in general.

                  Incentives like "Post a review and get a $5 voucher" are probably up to code (though I would argue that is only likely to incentivise people that had good experience and will want to buy again…)
                  Incentives like "Post a positive review/change your negative review and we'll give you a $5 voucher" are clearly not okay."

                    trouble is the rep from Ugg Australia says no incentives were offered, when they clearly were
                    and in the last six months most if not all for the 4/5 star reviews were incentivised

                    with 211 reviews, 105 were one star
                    you remove then ten examples of 5* reviews above that were incentivised, and to my untrained eye it seems like there is an incentive to skew :)

                    Incentives like "Post a positive review/change your negative review and we'll give you a $5 voucher" are clearly not okay."

                    doubt many people who had a bad product/ experience, would for a fiver change their review from negative to glowing :)

            @UGGAustraliaOfficial: I was thinking of buying one, but not a chance now. If you're really marketing/have marketing experience you're bloody terrible at it.

            Some absolute howler responses in these comments.

            Shame.

              @deva5610: That’s fine @deva5610 we have the same down voters for the passed 2 years;
              A lot of them using VPN addresses located overseas;

              We are a family run Australian business and these people keep downvoting us every deal;

              Either it’s footwear, Rugs, homewares - constantly bombarding us- if you look at their history you will see.

                @UGGAustraliaOfficial: So don't bite? You're coming across extremely unprofessional when you do.

                It's not hard to remain professional while responding to trolls and it'll present a better image of the company when you do!

                  @deva5610: Yes you’re 100% right, it’s just very frustrating when they constantly follow your deals just to try and ruin any success of them;
                  It hurts businesses and Australian manufacturers, especially when they’re using VPN address from foreign countries;
                  Your comment is valid and noted, thank you.

                    @UGGAustraliaOfficial: I"m thinking about buying a rug for your pure honesty instead of fake PR which everyone seems to want to hear.

                @UGGAustraliaOfficial: I'm Australian, no vpn. These rugs are terrible. I have no experience with any other items you sell. I've read reviews that your sheep skins are actually quite good. After my experience with these rugs I am reluctant to order one to try.
                I know bad processing work when I see it. Still have the photos from the one I sent back. Can completely validate my claim.
                Return process once someone finally responded to me was straight forward enough. Rerun postage was covered, no out of pocket expense, just wasted time and distrust due to low level customer service overall.

        Rep, your attitude stinks 💩.

        We also have positive comments

        You don't have to point out you're essentially bribing customers to leave a good review.

      Kangaroo fur/hairs are not soft. Its not like sheepskin. Is there an unrealistic expectation?

        Agree as per my comment above, however it does seem that the marketing blurb for this product does creates unrealistic expectations.

      I bought one, months ago and I don't have any major complaints on the product. Its definitely not as "plush" soft as sheepskin but its still pretty soft. I would say most people have never pet a real live kangaroo before and then make a complaint like that. I use it on my office chair and its very comfortable. The only small complaint I have is that there's no estimated size as kangaroos themselves comes in all different sizes.

      Agree with you, purchased one not long ago in a recent deal. Hard as a rock, paper thin, hardly any fur, could not fold it so they rolled it. Would never buy form this company again and would not recommend to anyone

      Thanks for @ing me. I've been trying to keep an eye out for these to come back on again to alert people to how terrible these truly are.
