You People Have No Clue How The Bridal Industry Works
House of Brides is not a franchise. Some lawyer that fiance/husband must be. Doesnt even know how to look up business information. A 10 year old could get the House of Brides ownership information on the web in 5 minutes. Dont hire the so called Lawyer that was so revered here.
Duh, stores cannot carry a sample of every dress that is available to order. You want a select style in Pink? Call the store and ask if they have a sample of it. Dont call a website who doesnt have any samples. Think people, the styles that are available on the website are available to order. Stores that do not have a particular sample can still order the dress if they have a retailers account with that particular designer.
And who said they should have ordered directly from the manufacturer. Get a clue, manufacturers only sell to retailers. Visit their websites, it all spelled out in plain english.
Expect a bridal store/online store to order a dress for you without payment? Duh, once the order is placed with the manufacturer it cannot be cancelled. Get a clue, what store would be in business if it allowed idiots to change their minds about their dress when the store owners themselves cannot change or cancel an order with the designer. Its stupid people who forced the designers to have an "all sales are final" policy because scammers use the dress for the wedding and then expect to return it. And how about all of the bridezilla`s that get kicked to the curb and now have no use for the dress? Thats bridezillas problem. There are consenquences for acting like a selfish, spoiled child. Real men wont tolerate it and neither will businesses that work to earn a profit.
150 complaints? Wow, how terrible when 10`s of thousands of orders are delivered successfully. You do the math, and always remember people in general are not very intelligent. Most cant read or comprehend simple statements.
Chicago bridal stores should not get your business? What are you saying Chicago brides are impossible to please? Why are store employees so rude and obnoxious? Because they have cornered the market in bridal stores? They get your business no matter what? Shouldn`t that work in all major cities? Don`t shop in any major city?
My final comment is for the divorce attorneys. You must be rolling in the dough. If someone cant even plan a wedding without freaking out I suspect the marriage itself lasts less than a year. Cha-ching!
