They should have offered it anyway- that is awful. Also I think it's really lame that they expected a couple new seams to fix the issue. You bought TWO pairs of jeans- what are the chances of BOTH having issues. Not acceptable IMO! Get up the guts to legitimately complain and request a discount or full refund. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/my-jeans-saga-fixed-but-still-not-happy#post-483351 Sat, 05 Jan 2013 22:35:03 +0000 Boogs 483351@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@runsyellowlites: Look at it not as complaining, just requesting to get what you paid for. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/my-jeans-saga-fixed-but-still-not-happy#post-483338 Sat, 05 Jan 2013 22:11:26 +0000 runsyellowlites 483338@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@lemondrop: @Mrs. J: @Boogs: @.twist.: @MamaMoose: Thanks ladies! I'll be coming back tomorrow to read your replies to give me courage/gumption to make a stink about them. I'm terrible about complaining or causing waves. =/</p> <p>@sunny: If I had a Nordstroms near by or ANYTHING else near by I'd be going there.... they're all over 100 miles away though. =/ </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/my-jeans-saga-fixed-but-still-not-happy#post-483213 Sat, 05 Jan 2013 20:32:15 +0000 sunny 483213@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Omg! That's a lot of money to pay for jeans that aren't "right".</p> <p>Have you tried Nordstrom? There are jeans in the &lt; $100 range if you go to BP or Individualist. TBD has the more expensive brands ($130-200). Nordstrom will hem for free if they are full price or if you have a Nordies card they will give you a $100 credit towards any alterations if the jeans were marked down. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/my-jeans-saga-fixed-but-still-not-happy#post-482993 Sat, 05 Jan 2013 16:45:09 +0000 MamaMoose 482993@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Um.... Who wants jeans that won't unzip all the way?! Absolutely unacceptable. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/my-jeans-saga-fixed-but-still-not-happy#post-482962 Sat, 05 Jan 2013 16:21:04 +0000 .twist. 482962@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Wow. yea, I would be taking them back for sure. Unacceptable for a pair of expensive and supposedly good quality jeans. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/my-jeans-saga-fixed-but-still-not-happy#post-482941 Sat, 05 Jan 2013 16:05:36 +0000 Boogs 482941@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>That's pretty bad costumer service if you ask me. I would probably just want a full refund. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/my-jeans-saga-fixed-but-still-not-happy#post-482652 Sat, 05 Jan 2013 10:51:48 +0000 Mrs. J 482652@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Seriously, not okay for expensive jeans. I would normally never complain, but if I spent a bunch of money, I would want it to be perfect, especially because you bought two pairs! Give them a piece of your mind! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/my-jeans-saga-fixed-but-still-not-happy#post-482284 Sat, 05 Jan 2013 01:19:11 +0000 lemondrop 482284@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>For $80 per pair- hell no, unacceptable! Make a fuss, they are walking all over you. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/my-jeans-saga-fixed-but-still-not-happy#post-482213 Fri, 04 Jan 2013 23:55:40 +0000 runsyellowlites 482213@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Bao: @zippylef: @junebugmama: Sigh *relief*</p> <p>I love you ladies! I feel so much better about not being happy now! I seriously hate "making waves" when it comes to things I buy and usually just brush it off..... thus the reason why I didn't make a fuss then.</p> <p>I won't have time to try on more jeans until Sunday when DH is off so until then I'm wearing them b/c they make my butt look good. Then off to get some more AND I may actually ask for that discount on another line this time. Maybe, if I get the courage &amp; nerve... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/my-jeans-saga-fixed-but-still-not-happy#post-482205 Fri, 04 Jan 2013 23:50:33 +0000 junebugmama 482205@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Take them back lady. I would be way more angry than you. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/my-jeans-saga-fixed-but-still-not-happy#post-482195 Fri, 04 Jan 2013 23:43:04 +0000 loveisstrange 482195@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh hell no. That's ghetto as hell. I hope she didnt charge you for the "repairs". I'd be returning them, personally. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/my-jeans-saga-fixed-but-still-not-happy#post-482194 Fri, 04 Jan 2013 23:42:40 +0000 Bao 482194@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hmm...I don't know, considering how much money you spent on them and all the hassle, I'd want brand new pairs! At least they are wearable though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/my-jeans-saga-fixed-but-still-not-happy#post-482187 Fri, 04 Jan 2013 23:37:54 +0000 runsyellowlites 482187@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>So yesterday I posted about a pair of BKE jeans I bought &amp; got hemmed only to have them STILL too long &amp; another pair that the pocket was already coming off the pant less than a week after purchased (not even washed yet)...</p> <p><a href="http://boards.hellobee.com/topic/hemmed-jeans-still-too-long-help" rel="nofollow">http://boards.hellobee.com/topic/hemmed-jeans-still-too-long-help</a></p> <p>THEN after the suggestions of you lovely ladies I tried washing the pair that was too long and when I went to put them on the zipper broke!</p> <p><a href="http://boards.hellobee.com/topic/you-cant-be-serious-pants-rant" rel="nofollow">http://boards.hellobee.com/topic/you-cant-be-serious-pants-rant</a></p> <p>Today I took them BOTH back into the Buckle to exchange them. </p> <p>First, they didn't have either in my size or needed length.<br /> THEN, they couldn't special order them either.<br /> SO they had their seamstress look at them and she said she could fix them!</p> <p>YAY! They got fixed! My only complaint is HOW they were fixed. Given I know that she couldn't completely replace my zipper, I feel like they're kind of "rigged" and my pocket I'm worried that the original threading could still continue to come undone &amp; then me be back in the same place.</p> <p>Yay &amp; Boo at the same time. I'm usually on the side of "Oh well" &amp; "It's no big deal" so I didn't really have/take the time to go round and round with getting a completely different pair (trying on jeans takes WAY more time than I thought) &amp; when I went to pick them up it was a different shift than I'm familiar with so I didn't try and talk to the manager or anything. </p> <p>If I still feel blegh about them tomorrow I may go back in... really I just want my jeans at this point BUT want to feel like they were worth the 80 bucks I spent on each pair. Le sigh. </p> [attach=1400/13/mg4y77.600x450.Pants.jpg]
