NO EXCHANGE POLICY FOR DAMAGED BAG
I am lucky to have several D&B bags. I love them and for the past several years they are the only bags buy. Lately on the DB website they are misrepresenting the actual size of their bags and despite customer complaints and reviews they don’t seem to correct the online sizes. The bags are reported to be much larger than they actually are. Even when calling customer service in advance of my purchase about the actual size, they reported yet a different size to what is listed on the website and what actually ultimately arrived. This has happened to me twice and they never fix the website despite numerous negative reviews regarding the mistaken information. But, my bigger current issue is their EXCHANGE policy - they don’t have one. I bought a florentine saddle bag on sale - in my opinion it is damaged and i told them i wanted to do an even exchange They told me that is not their policy and they don’t offer that. They said I had to return the bag; be charged $10 shipping and once they review the bag if they feel it is defective they will reimburse the $10. This has happened to me before so although I don’t agree I was fine with it. THEN I asked if I could lock in the same price that I bought the bag for (kinda what happens when you do an even exchange anyplace else) and they said no. They would charge whatever the current price is for the handbag. So, i buy a bag, they ship a defective one, I initially have to be charged for return shipping pending their review, then I have to rebuy the same exact bag at a higher price - all because they shipped a defective bag from the beginning. Customer Service representatives answer emails in a timely fashion but are not helpful at all and their policies are anything but customer friendly.
