Copy Your Receipts

[zuzu maxx]

Hi All

A nasty thing happened to me today! I was going to sell one of my bags and indicated that I had all tags including the original receipt. Well, when I pulled out my receipt it was barely legible. It's that lousy register paper they use these days. Luckily I had my cc statement, but that's really not something I like to share with strangers or my husband - LOL!

So my word of caution is copy that receipt as quickly as possible after you purchase your bag.

Cheers - M

At our Chanel boutique, they use actual printing paper, and not the glossy paper so I think I'm safe!

I agree!! But this is really a problem when you buy mobiles, tech items in general if you need assistance so it's a good point! Too bad I'm to lazy to do it!

Yes, I noticed this too. I pulled out the NM receipt for my J12 watch and couldn't read it anymore. I think however I can walk into NM and ask for a replacement receipt.

Is a copy of a receipt considered as valid as the original receipt?

 

[zuzu maxx]

I have used copies of receipts at consignment stores. I think it's valid in that it could be researched at the store of purchase. That way the store can usually print you a new receipt if needed.
