Dealing with professional scammers is a difficult task. I recall to have been at this small consignment store on Bedford Drive a while ago, but not sure why, I didn't like it.Thank you all for your kind messages. After reading up what people posted on my thread, I feel like I have very little chance of getting my money back ever again. I have talked to another lady who got cheated and she told me that Rosie is now sitting in jail for 8 years. However, I think the business was run by her son, Keeter, because I remembered he called me to say they were in financial troubles. I misheard Keeter for Peter when he called so after reading that Rosie's son is Keeter I kind of put things together. So please be aware that her son is now running business, wherever the new location will be! Also, the store manager's name was Lucia and she was a liar as well.
I know this sounds like I'm giving up, but I guess I am dealing with a very professional scammer here and the best thing I can do is to report to BH Police. I doubt they can do anything as well. However, a member told me to use all social media to stop this person from doing it again. So I ask your favor to please put in your twitter, facebook, instagram whatever you have these names and the stores associated with them to prevent others from the same fate.
In all I am sad that I lost money but thankful it's not millions of dollars like she swindled others. I will still file a police report in the slightest hope that the police will stop her from doing this ever again to other people.
Thank you so much for your help.

Agree that a police report should be filed. She is a scammer & however
the word can be spread.. so be it...This is the price she has to pay for
cheating so many out of their money..
thank you all for the reply. The shop's name is "I want that bag" and they have a website called luxuryoverload.com, which is still up and running. So please avoid buying from that website at all cost! As for the attorney, I lost about $3,500 in the bags, I am not sure if hiring an attorney would cost less than what I have already lost. Plus it will be a long process and I can't afford the time right now. I have already contacted a yelp member who was conned as well but I have yet to hear from her.
I don't know the owner's name because I only dealt with the employees (or at least that's what I noticed when others sell their bags in the store as well). So, I have no other information about the business other than the name of the shop. I still have the letter from the store stating that they will pay me on Oct 1. As the bags I did not receive any receipts that they were sold, I had to call them to check before they informed me that the bags were sold. At this time, I will heed your advice and make a police report.
