read my comments about Nick, I write the truth!

In defense of Nick, I have purchased items from him in the past (on consignment as well as immediate purchase) and I never had any issues with him or his service(s). His has always been professional, honest and even suggested some ways that he can assist me in delivery and I reside in Las Vegas. I have been in NY for many months and now return to Vegas, seeking his tel number I read this negative comment about him and wanted to set the record straight! I do not believe the story written of him. I intend to stop by his establishment soon and continue to do business with him.

A Message From the King

by nickmetropolis at Citysearch

Hi, I'm Nick Metropolis and I am immediately responding to the review above. I am writing in the spirit of integrity and kindness. We have been in business for 14 years and we take humble pride in treating our customers with the utmost respect and generosity. We have given countless times to young artists, small theatre companies and anyone in need of a helping hand because of a limited budget or a very worthy cause. I believe that most of Los Angeles knows us for these great business qualities. I am now going to address the consignement issue mentioned above. I am so very suprised that the person above has not come to me directly to check on a so-called $10,000 consignment. In my 14 years at our location I do not remember ever taking a $10,000 consignment or even close to a $10,000 consignment. I have also never received phone calls, messages, or letters ever ever asking me to pay a $10,000 commission. I certainly would like to have this person call me directly to let me know what consigment he or she is speaking of. I welcome that response in the spirit of great communication because my only intention would be to make this matter right and first of all, I need to know what matter we are speaking about. I have always tried to help people that are in a bind, i.e. having to move the very next day or if a relative has passed and an apartment needs immediate liquidation. We receive hundreds of compliments per week and very rarely a complaint. I am mainly writing this response because, once again I have never had a request for the payment of a consigment as described above. I ask that you communicate with me quickly because I am eager to resolve this situation and I honestly have no idea who you are. When you call, write or email I can assure you that you will be treated with the utmost respect and kindness. So, please respond soon.

Sincerely,

Nick Metropolis
