When I was in New York last month, I saw this watch on a friend that I really liked. It's made by a French designer, Agnes B. So I went to the boutique store in Soho and they didn't have it. They said another store in the city had the one I was looking for, so my aunt went and got it for me since I had to be somewhere else. But that night we realized that the watch had stopped running, and there were scracthes on the watch (it was the floor model), so it might have been returned. Of course when we brought it back, they didn't have any more, nor did any of the other stores in the U.S. The crappy thing is, prominently displayed on the counter is their return policy. You can only get store credit for returns. We tried to argue that the watch wasn't working but they wanted to just change out the battery. I didn't want that watch all scratched up and stuff, so now I'm stuck with the store credit. I thought that was ok, cause I still wanted the watch, and I would just wait to get it. Little did I know or think about how hard it would be. They don't even have it on the website. Sounds like it's a pretty old model. It just really sucks. I didn't like the other watches they had as much, I really liked THAT ONE!
So I waited and called all the stores again to check if they got it. The San Francisco store said they had one, but now I'm skeptical about getting the floor model. Then she told me New York had 3! So I was all happy and called New York and placed my order. Then after I faxed them my order confirmation form, they call me back and said they got it mixed up and that the one they had was a Men's watch, and not a Ladies' watch. Even though I said I was looking for a Ladies watch when I first called. No wonder the price was different. What a big let down. I was all excited that I was getting my watch. I can find it in Asia maybe, but what am I going to do with the store credit? Ugh...
