So, I posted a few pics last night of some Tom Ford bags that caught my eye at NM. I loved them. What I didn't love was the lack of knowledge from the SA.
At first, a few of the bags were not priced correctly-I saw a med Jennifer Bag which I loved that was priced the same as the large shoulder bag-about a $500 difference. The SA tried to tell me the price was right. She didn't speak great english, but I'm used to that. I was hoping however she could tell me something about Tom Ford or the bags themselves-but no.....and of course the price was wrong which we found out after I pushed the issue. One of the totes was mis priced also.
The tote bag I was interested in comes with a shoulder strap but it was missing. She wanted me just to order a new bag and try it on at home-really? Order a $2900 bag and see if you like it with the strap? No thanks.
I asked about Tom Ford and the quality but she knew nothing. It left me wanting to run straight to a Tom Ford store where I could get some better info. I have since read on another TPF thread, that the bags are made in the same place Hermes bags are; thus the leather feels the same....hey that's important info!
Anyway, it was very disappointing. I know I can ask for another SA but I got better service that night from Fossil and Henri Bendel. Don't you want to be educated or at least have a great experience?
