I love Charlotte Russe jeans and leggings. Their leggings are cheap and last me a long time and often come in cute patterns. Their jeans fit me well and again, tend to last me a long time. So I actually shop here a lot and I’m not basing this review on just one experience. Several weeks ago, I was trying to buy a pair of jeans from them. I decided on the one pair on their site that wasn’t ripped in that ulgy way has been popular in stores lately. (Who the heck wants jeans that are ripped off unevenly about four inches above the ankle???! I keep seeing this style on racks everywhere but no one is wearing it in real life.) Anyway. I bought the pair of jeans and about ten days after my purchase 😡 I receive an email from them notifying me that the jeans I bought were out of stock. I honestly get annoyed when it happens because I’ve worked in retail and it is NOT DIFFICULT to take inventory of your own products and program your site to only allow a product to be purchased the number of times of product that you have. Every single site that I have ever purchased from does this automatically except Charlotte Russe. This wasn’t even the first time. So I check back for jeans a few days later and find that the same ones I wanted from before are still available. Oh they must have restocked them, I think. And I purchased them again. Then, again, TEN DAYS LATER. I receive another email from them telling me that the jeans I bought are out of stock. Again. And guess what? THE SAME EXACT JEANS ARE STILL AVAILABLE FOR PURCHASE IN MY SIZE ON THEIR SITE. I can understand not updating your site within seconds or even minutes of people purchasing an out of stock item. And I understand that it’s still technically the holiday season even though Christmas has passed. They are still having a sale. But it’s been weeks. Literal WEEKS. It DOES NOT TAKE WEEKS TO UPDATE YOUR SITE. Come on now. This is a ridiculous way to run a business. And if that weren’t enough of a problem, it takes them a million years to ship their product and they ship with FedEx so we’ll practically be living in the space age before you get your order. I have bought things from Europe off of Etsy and they’ve gotten to me faster. For reference, I live in New York. I’m not sure where their wearhouse is but I have purchased from companies in California and gotten my order within a week. This is inexcusable. Buy in store if you can but avoid the site.
