I can not believe some people *Vendor Rant* very long-
Original post by SoontobeMrsH
In January I wengt dress shopping for the first time (only time) saw a dress that I loved in that moment & thought it was the one for me. Instead of giving a deposit at that , I decided to go back a month later, this way I can see if I stll love the dress.
I didn't:for the ownertold me that the designer would alter the dress so I would like it better. Her shop was very crowded, and people were waiting to be helped so I felt very rushed, and reluctantly gave her a check as a deposit., I called the next day & she was unavailable so I was told she would call me back, she never did. They are closed on Monday so I called and spoke w/ her on Last tuesday night. She did not order my dress, at that point so I told not to,I also asked her to hold my check for me to pick up this weekend she agreeded. We left it that I would meet w/ her this weekend to look at different dresses.
I called my bank & placed a stop payment on the check.
This morning I get a call at my office, and it's an irrate bridal store rep.
here's how the conversation went:
Shop clerk: I'm getting very worried, your running out of time to get your dress (my wedding is over a year away). then she follows with you missed your last appointment,(My next app. was this weekend) Then she says there was a problem w/ your check. (I put a stop payment on the check & cancelled my order with you, why would you attempt to deposit my check) She doesn't answer...
then she told me to pay the fee she recv'd from her bank.
I cancalled my apointment & I will not be shopping there again,

I doubt it, esp, since she called me & wants me to pay the bank fee. Um, no, I pd a fee to cancell the check she was supposed to hold for me.
So glad I found this out now. BTW: I loved how she trys to pressure me in to buying, by scaring me , your running out of time to get your dress, MY wedding is 462 days away.

omg, good think you put a stop payment on that check. that is terrible!! good for you, you couldn't have handled the situation any better.
that really stinks.
thanks I'm glad I didn't trust her to hold my check like she agreed too. everything is being paid w/ amex from here on
