Deceptive Marketing & Sales Tactics
I ordered a wallet that was 70% off with an extra 15% off. I got a confirmation email but a few days later, they sent an email stating “The item you purchased was so popular that it sold out. We’ve canceled your order and apologize for the inconvenience.” Except this wallet reappeared on their site after the extra 15% off deal has ended. It’s been over a week and the wallet is still available. I reached out to customer support and they basically repeated what the cancellation email had already stated. No real solutions were offered or any discount codes (in case I want to repurchase the wallet). Since so many reviewers had the same experience, this deceptive sales strategy has got to be intentional. I’m beyond disgusted with Coach’s sale schemes. Not only do they inflate item prices whenever they have “deals” (which means you’re not getting a deal, you’re actually paying more), now they’re forgoing their obligation to fulfill paid orders. I’ve been shopping at both the retail and outlet stores for almost 2 decades. After this experience, I’m considering abandoning the brand altogether. They clearly don’t care about tarnishing their reputation as a company, and driving loyal customers away. I prefer doing business with ethical companies that aren’t trying to deceive their clientele at every turn. *UPDATE* 4/02/24 The bag I received from my last order was clearly used, and it's missing both the crossbody strap and hangtag. I'll be driving this weekend to their store to return it. I'm definitely done with Coach for good! P.S. CoachOutlet.com deducts the cost of the return shipping label from your refund, but Coach.com offers free return shipping. I don't understand the difference in return policies as the Outlet bags have gotten more expensive than ever. Please save your money + time and shop elsewhere.
