poor quality of womens clothing items

you THINK...........

If this website has taught me ANYTHING, its taught me to keep my
reciepts somewhere safe. No need to even organize them, I just keep
them in a file in my file cabinet. That way, I'm only a few feet away
from having an exact date/time/price for EVERYTHING. It's a CYA thing.
It takes minutes to do, even if you just find some old plastic
tuppaware to keep them in or something.

Sorry, I'm not trying to lecture you. It's just something I found to
be extremely helpful.

I agree that something from MACY's should last longer then 2-3 washes.
It might help though if you included product name and number - that
way they could look into that line of product and they could be more
specific as far as improvements go.

The time to get your money back is immediately, not months later.
Also, a receipt will get you further than a guess of the price.

Calling their merchandise junk and asking a question like "where
is the quality control" is not the way to get Macy's to do
anything about this. Occasionally any store will get merchandise from
a manufacturer that is not up to their standards. The only way they
will know about it is if the consumer brings it to their attention.

I would suggest taking the shirts to a Macy's and asking to speak with
the department manager. Style & Co is an exclusive line to Macy's
and the manager will have an idea when they got these items in stock.
If enough people did this, the manager will bring it to the attention
of the buyer.

Dismissing them as "junk" and requesting "$50"
gift certificates as a remedy because you "think" the total
paid was "around" $50.00 seems a bit excessive. Does the
store have a return policy? If they were junk, then the return policy
that was in place is about the only remedy we could expect.

If a product endures beyond our expectations, do we send the companies
"thank you" gift cards at full value for not having to
replace the items?

How can they be major pieces of your warddrobe if you've washed them
2-3 times (which indicates that you've worn them 2-3 times)? And $25
for a new shirt (you indicate that the total for both was $50) isn't
really worth complaining about the prices at that store.

I also wonder what the care labels for the shirts say. Handwash?
Delicate cycle? Dry clean only?

Have you visited a store about this? I can't imagine them just
sending you gift card. They will need the clothing and your receipt
to verify the claim.
