I've been shopping for 30 years at Nordstrom and Nordstrom rack. The reason I shop there is their…read morecustomer service, the quality of their items, and their return policy. I had to purchase a pair of dress shoes, and I specifically asked the salesperson when I told her that they were a little tight, but was assured that they would loosen up upon wear and if they didn't, that I could return them. I thought, "that's why I love Nordstrom's." Fast forward two hours, and I had a huge blister on the inside of my big toe. I had to remove the shoes and switch into tennis shoes, which did not match my suit at all. But, I knew I could return the shoes, so I was OK with that. I took the shoes back and was told by a sales clerk and by the manager, "Finn," that I could not return the shoes because they had been worn outside. I explained to her that I specifically asked that when I purchased them earlier and was assured that I could. She said that didn't matter because there were scuffs on the sole of the shoe. I said I would take store credit and she said "aren't you listening, I said we could not take them back." I would avoid this Nordstrom's rack, find another or better yet, just skip them altogether - they are not what they used to be, they do not stand behind their products, and they do not stand behind their word.

There are definitely some one-of-a-kind pieces that you won't find anywhere else. My only disappointment was the customer service. When I came in, I wasn't made to feel welcome. The staff member looked at me and walked away without checking in or offering any assistance. A friendly greeting would have made the experience much more enjoyable. That said, if you're looking for distinctive vintage finds, it's still worth a visit for the selection alone.

We found success with all our prom dress needs! I wish I had known about them for homecoming... we…read moreran so many places. They have shoes, purses, fancy sparkly accessories (cheaper than Claire's.) They also have super cute summer clothes to wear under the cap & gown for grad ceremony. One thing I liked is their website has an extensive selection, but sometimes you could find the dress in the store to try on and even if it was the wrong size they could order it for you and have it shipped to your house for free because they're based in California. It took about 3 - 4 business days to get my shoes that I needed in a certain size and a dress that I needed. So if you plan a little bit in advance and they don't have your size they can check inventory and order it for you so you can get within 3 to 4 days you should have it if you're in WA. You'll be notified when the order ships and when your order is expected delivery + a tracking number to watch for it. The girls that work there are sweet, helpful, but not hovering, and will show you what they have if you ask for something particular.

Being without clothes, they wanted to open my curtain and saying if I don't hurry up they will come in and kick me out. Once i had my clothes on and ready to go, they followed me outside the store and i told the manager why was this happening and she gave me a very NASTY look and IGNORED me. The two male cops kept following me until I was at the food court on my way out. This is very unexceptional, unexpected and inexcusable.

It'd be tough to improve on anything at Pure. There are people who get in the business of hawking vintage stuff because it's trendy or a quick buck, and then there are people who know the business deeply because they love it. Jordan is firmly in the latter camp; her little shop on "I" St. (across from Tacoma Little Theatre) was her family shop for ages, and the newer, more expansive one (attached to Kings Books) allows plenty of room to roam. (It also feels really clean, unlike some vintage stores I've browsed.) With different stuff in the store vs. at the year-round weekly market vs. in the Etsy shop, you can have a whole lot of fun browsing here. And when you find the winners for you, it won't break the bank to hug them all up (Tiny Toons/Elmira-style) and bring them home with you. Enjoy!

We thought at first this was part of the bookstore, but it's not. Completely separate. They open at…read moredifferent times. We happen to see this place near to where we were via Google search. We just finished hockey and wanted to hit up some local thrift, vintage, shops. So when we arrived, they were closed. We walked to a nearby thrift store then came back. We were immediately intrigued by the stores ambiance. It was set up really cute, total vintage, and clean. Many things caught our eyes, and we scattered all giddy, but the elder behind the counter kept staring at us, NONE STOP. Like we were stealing from her. Which made it awkward. So we didn't stay long. Then she got very flustered, that I wanted to pay 1/2 cash, 1/2 card. I stood there quietly. To the point I was like, just keep the clothes. It's ok, but we really liked what we were buying. Many things are over priced, as many "vintage" stores are. (Ex. A "very" used pair of Converse Chucks were $45). You gotta really shop for the diamond in the rough, but it's absolutely worth it. They had a nice selection of attire, we would've purchased more. However, not finding much clothing under $40, and I was shopping with two teenagers. It was a tad outta our price range.

They had installed self checkouts. A miracle. Now, I happen to have a personal opinion that self-checkout use should require some type of training or license, but that's a separate issue. I was only buying one item, and I was about to be done checking out in less than thirty seconds flat. Or so I thought. As I walked happily towards the door, I heard a hoarse voice choking at me, "ma'am! MA'AM!" Was she croaking at *me*? "I need to verify your receipt." Sounds reasonable at first. I hadn't noticed a woman in a Loss Prevention uniform at a poorly placed kiosk where the tagging racks normally are. She was helping someone else. So I had to wait for her to finish scanning someone else's things, and then scan my receipt and scan my things. She wasn't doing a visual check like Costco does. She needed to physically scan every receipt and every item, and her scanner was slow, and she was bad at it. Her attitude was just so rude and gross, and she was so slow that it seemed intentional. Was she supposed to be loss prevention, or a decent cashier? Cause she was certainly not both. She was either the worst cashier I've ever come across, or she was deliberately slowing me down because she could tell I was in a hurry. It took her way longer to scan my items than it had taken me. And she acted like it was difficult and inconvenient to verify my one item. This entirely defeated the whole purpose of the self checkout. Ross ALMOST improved their awful checkout process. So close. As I was walking out, a couple of managers called our cheerfully, "That's cute! Have a good day!" It seemed like they knew that their 'lead checker' was bringing moods down, and this was their intervention. If Ross is going to put a lead checker at a bottleneck security check, it needs to be a decent, friendly checker, not a rude security officer who doesn't know her way around a POS. Other than that it was a good store.

Selection changes always. Store can be messy but you never know what you will find. Sometimes…read moreamazing value, sometimes ok in price. This is in the area next to Target and Hobby Lobby. They recently have been getting much better quality products. I use the Yuka App from the Apple store on my iPhone to scan the barcodes of products before I buy to get a read on the quality/hazards of ingredients. I was surprised to see their toothpaste section carry many of the same brand as Whole Foods. Prices for premium toothpaste are plus/minus $1-3 dollars from some stores. I cross price check with Amazon. Beauty products now include MAC, Bobbi Brown, Anastasia, Stila, Shisheido, and Lancôme, which are often known to be found at a Sephora, Nordstrom or higher end store, however, selection is limited for these. The prices are much better than elsewhere for these. Clothes quality is mixed - you can review by pulling the tags on the inside to see if you are getting full cotton, polyester, etc. Some do not feel as if the material will last long and others feel very quality.

We went to this one with the hope of finding a salt and pepper grinder(s) and we had no luck. We also attempted to look at coffee machines as we needed a new one, preferably inexpensive. But no... no luck on any of that. Item availability for normal kitchen and household items is poor. They have clothes and some oddball decor you could use if you want a laugh regardless if it's intentional or not but other than that coming here was a waste of time and only affirms why I don't ever come here. I don't think my issues are with this location per se but just any location of theirs in general.
