X-Pole Customer Service .... which, apparently, is non-existent

After much deliberation about brands, I finally purchased an x-pole July 31. It arrived promptly in about 10 days later via Fedex. It was a few weeks before I unboxed and put it up, but I have to it was much easier than I expected to do so-- the hardest part was determining where a stud was in the ceiling. I had noticed there was a ding in the A pole after unboxing it, but I was so excited to have finally cleared a space for it, I put it up anyway. Once up, it worked fine and was very secure. It remained up until a few weeks ago when I decided to get out of my lease by finding new tenants for my townhouse. Unfortunately, my mom passed away unexpectedly and I have been taking care of my dad at his house.

I'm actually sort of squealing in delight that the brass might be different now then when it first came out. I love a brass pole. Now I might have to order that as my next pole for my "center studio" pole on Monday....
