This was my first time trying to sell to a consignment shop in many years. Unfortunately, I started at Miss Chrissy's shop first. I didn't realize that one needs to make appointments to have the owner look at your clothes you're selling. * * * * * When I lugged in my arm full of dresses to Miss Chrissy's, there was one customer in the store, and Miss Chrissy was sitting at her counter, reading. When I told her that I didn't realize I needed an appointment, she offered to schedule an appointment. I really didn't want to lug this stuff back to the van, only to return another day, lugging it back in. * * * * * *I asked if she could look at it now, and she refused, even though she clearly was not busy! She insisted that this is by appointment only. She should have offered to look at my stuff (takes what, 3 minutes to look at 8 or 9 dresses?) and then requested that the next time I call to schedule... which would have been reasonable and accommodating. * * * * *
Needless to say, I left her store, found another consignment shop, who graciously looked at my dresses. * * * * * *
I ended up spending close to $100.00 at the CUSTOMER SERVICE ORIENTED store. Miss Chrissy's loss! * * * *
Honestly, I don't know how she manages to stay in business.
Pros: ummmm..... none
Cons: Poor Customer Service
