Ridiculous

every year that passes, the sting gives me disgust with crazy prices and colors, my own experience: stangata pants in green 39.99, blue pants 49.99 and beige 59.99. I ask if the brand is the same, why aren't they the same price, and plus antiblue coat 65 euros on black fryday the same coat went for 89.00 euros and the discount is 69.99 I mean you always deceive customers, ridiculous for me and shameful

Thank you for your review. It is possible that 1 pair of pants is released in multiple colors. If a color is not as popular as we thought, it may be that a certain color is only discounted. We call this a color markdown. Furthermore, I can't figure out what you mean by the last sentence about the jacket. If you have any questions or would like clarity, we can answer all your questions by telephone, email or WhatsApp. ˆLiv

The Worst Shop The Sting On The Meir - Antwerp

If you want to be treated like garbage / rubbish this shop in Antwerp on the Meir should suit your needs well, the staff are more interested in flirting with each other than helping there customers or increasing the income & revenue for there company. If you ask them a question they still ignore you !!!

Unpleasant Return Experience

Returning a corduroy shirt that was a Christmas Gift. The staff member at the checkout was instantly hostile and started complaining about some dust clinging to the fabric and how we should clean stuff better before returning it. Comments like "What did you do to it (the shirt)?" also seemed a bit overblown given it was some dust not a stain etc.

I don't even disagree with the statement as much as how unpleasant it was delivered. Another staff member watched the interaction and thought it was acceptable to be this hostile over some dust. The tags were never removed and I only ever tried the item on at home.

The return was processed but acted like she was doing us a favour.
I won't be returning to this store for the foreseeable future. Just seems silly to lose business over something like this.

Hi Brian, We are sorry to read that the return of your Christmas gift went so badly in store.

Of course an item can be tried on at home and it is not for the staff to give such reactions.

We apologize for the inconvenience caused, we hope that your next visit will be a positive experience.
