A Stitch in Time: Unraveling the Dressmaker’s Dilemma
Our young dressmaker finds herself in a tricky situation. A customer, who had already worn the dress to an event, wants to return it, claiming her original event was cancelled. The dressmaker, who designed her return policy to protect both herself and her customers, feels cheated. She’s caught between the strict adherence to her policy and the clear misuse of it. The question is, should she stick to her policy, even if it’s being exploited? Or should she stand her ground and refuse the return? Let’s see what the internet thinks of this dress drama!
NTA, stand your ground! No returns, wear it or sell it
NTA. Buyer tried to defraud the seller by lying about event.
“NTA I’m sorry but that is just a lousy thing for a person to do. Obviously she LIKES the dress since she WORE IT. Update your return policy to note that if people wear the dress you make, they can’t be jerks and try to return it. Because apparently people have no shame.” ♀️
Savage response shuts down dress refund request.
“NTA. Dress is used goods, wording should clarify return policy.”
Big retailers use unremovable tags to prevent fraudulent returns
