Fucking Neimen Marcus

[AAP]

Ok, you gotta love this dumbass shit.

I go there last night while out at the mall and they have these dress pants that I like ON SALE. (you know how often NM has a sale?)

Well anyway they are the EXACT same price as I normally pay $295 when I shop elsewhere. Not the usual double markup they employ at times.

So.... I decide to buy 3 pair.

I pick them out, the lady takes the measurements for the tailoring, gives me a slip and I go up front to pay.

GUESS WHAT?

Bitches won't take a VISA or MC. Hell no. They take AX or their own card. I bet if I had offered cash they would have looked at like I was holding out a turd.

So I say "fuck this shit" and tell them forget it. Then the little queen has the nerve to tell me that I owe $82 for "Consultation and Measurements". WTF??? That wasn't listed on the slip. Just tailoring and hemming. He says that it is customary for them to add that later anyway. I am like "Bitch I ain't paying shit because the pants were not touched or anything, you can put them right back on the shelf now." He seemed appalled that I was not going to pay for something like that.

I should have just said "Sure I will pay. But it on my VISA".

What a store of fuckheads.

So you just walked out? Did he say anything after you said you weren't paying?

 

[MattTheSkywalker]

you didn't know that? lol. Did you ask them why? Did they give you the line about the mailing list? If you want the answer they'll never give you, my friend's Mom knows the CEO and we've asked the question.

Was this the NM at the galleria mall?

For your next trick, go into Saks and when they ring up the pants, ask if you can barter.

Yes it was at the Galleria.

No, I didn't ask them. When he told me that I thought "what communism" even though I have an AX, I decided I was not going to use it on a store that was limiting my choices like that. Then he still tried to charge me for a pants that were never bought, never hemmed either. Basically he was trying to pull a "restocking fee" on me.

I wonder if that was Ken. There was a guy there who worked in menswear who gave me lots of shit about returning pants once. (I was hungover and wearing a hat, looked dirty).

I said "look me up, it's under (friend's Mom's name). He looked it up, and she is Chairman's Circle at NM, and the guy just started blubbering like an idiot. I said "it's no problem Ken, I just need to see your store manager".

The store manager was Lois. She is much more reasonable, though Visa is corporate policy.

Better deals at saks anyway on pants.

You should have slammed the fucker, then restocked your dick in his mouth!
Restock fees are such bullshit.

 

[Schwad22]

I never had a problem at NM with paying by cc. Visa, MC, discover and amex all accepted.

Consulting fee's is also BS, tailors get paid by work and consulting??? Never heard of that

 

[SoKlueles]

I dont get the whole restocking fee thing
Target does that also
what is the big freakin deal with putting something back on the shelf?
i think its like 15% and I do not think that the employee that actually puts the freaking stuff back on the shelves gets that money


btw walmart dont do that
Ive never been in a NM store but I was in a dillards and holy crap i couldnt afford a hankey from there

 

[hanselthecaretaker]

They usually have hot chics working there. They're probably all strictly mercenaries though.

a hankey? I didn't think girls used hanky's

 

[Lestat]

why don't they take Visa/MC?

I never heard of that before to be honest. I've shopped there for a few years and they always took my MC


I don't know if he's trying to pull our legs or not but Its fishy

Neiman Marcus does not take Visa. Never have, and probably never will. Are you perhaps thinking of Nordstrom? They take anything. They'll barter.

The reason is because Visa sells their mailing lists, and NM does not want to be used in the compilation of Visa's mailing lists.

nordstom will barter?? for what?

 

[stilleto]

i often spend $300 for a pair of pants too.

in fact, when i see them that cheap, i buy 8 pairs.

 

[gtrcivic]

used to work by the galleria in tysons and go to the food court for lunch...would cut through NM to get to it...all the makeup/cologne women were pretty hot and young, a few older worn out hotties in their days...through the course of a year,abut 70% of the young hotties were wearing engagement rings...guess it was a way for them to meet their gold digger/sugar daddy...i'm sure they were the mistress who turned into the 2nd wife eventually after divorcing the 1st wife!!!

 

[fistfullofsteel]

restocking fee, ey?

Dude, I have a new move the El Crucifixo that I saw on the mexican wrestling channle CMLL or something like that the other weekend. That shit is wicked as hell.

Luchadores usually have two dozen moves they make you submit with, not the standard one that each American wrestler seems to hold as "his own".
