I usually have a great experience at this boutique, but I was disappointed during my last visit due to unclear sale sign practices.
A sign said there was a sale on everything in one of these booths except for jewelry and books. I grabbed two small paintings. When I went to check out and told the clerk about the sale, I was just told "wrong." The clerk then explained that the sale was void for these items because of stickers on the back that said "firm."
The large and prominently featured sale sign for the booth only listed jewelry and books as excluded from the sale, not items marked firm. It felt misleading. The sign should have said, "except for jewelry, books, and items marked firm."
I asked the clerk about the sign. She said that the sign didn't matter, only that the sticker on the back said firm. Because of this, I didn't purchase the paintings I otherwise would have loved to nab.
I hope they start honoring poorly worded sales signs and/or have vendors make their signs clearer and clarify exclusions better. Otherwise, this is a great boutique. read more
