I love their schoolboy blazers but this time all they have is this weird regent blazer that I don't like, so I am pretty disappointed. Plus the price skyrocketted and the sale items are not that appealing. I really feel J Crew should just stick to selling basic stuff made really well, instead of experimenting with new styles that they are not that good at. I have not bought any J Crew piece in a while because of this. I want to, but I can't find anything!

They only went out today, 8/20, ONE single pair of the bottoms is arriving tomorrow, Friday and the other pieces are in a separate shipment slated for Monday. I leave for vacation on Sunday! Now I have to get someone to pick up the package for me, I still need a suit, and to top it off, the CS Twice told me via email that it would "definitely" be here Friday. I"m hoping by some miracle the second package arrives Friday, too.

This was for a freaking wedding dress, too! It arrived Monday 8/17. They are really stretching it with the 6-8 day shipping... once it gets into the UPS system it seems ok, but what the heck is going on at the warehouse/billing. Something shouldn't be sitting open or released for 3+ days.<br /><br />The gown didn't even come nicely wrapped. I guess if you get a wedding dress on sale, they can't be arsed to put a little tissue paper in the box?tmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11794767345499432177noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-16971656031324469702015-08-20T11:35:00.416-04:002015-08-20T11:35:00.416-04:00Same thing happened to me.

Shortly after that phone call, my package arrived, AS DID the shipping confirmation. Now today, Aug. 20th, I receive the same exact package, as well as a new billing for it.

I was in the store on Monday and many of the new arrivals were out, but is there a major difference between the on line price and the store's price. I'm not talking sale, but the regular priced items.<br /><br />A fleece sweatshirt #E0307 on line is 101.50 but in the store it's $79.50. Bowery slim cotton pants #03165 are $111.50 and $88 in store while some wool ones #C8753 were $162 on line and $128 in store.<br /><br />This is brutal and I'm very disappointed in the major on line price hike.jcrew guy in Canadahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13087438754180803097noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-44807848226407398382015-08-19T19:15:04.655-04:002015-08-19T19:15:04.655-04:00Thanks for the "long" review on the Beth...Thanks for the "long" review on the Bethesda store. I had not had a chance to get up there and had wondered about the progress. When I found out that the store was closing for a revamp, I was taken by surprise (perhaps I don't visit that often and missed the "memo"). Glad its open but it sounds like the layout is something like Columbia, which I am not a fan of.

This costs me a small fee per pkg ( hate when J C send one item per pkg) With the low Can $ gas and time it is still worth it to do so. The only time I lose is on returns because of the conversion of $$ each time. I had high hopes for borderfree but will not be using it ever.

I'm not supporting or defending J.Crew but it seems like they simply don't care too much about their Canadian customer base. If I were a Canadian J.Crew fan, I'd try to find alternatives to shopping directly with J.Crew. Like asking friends/relatives in the US to buy at the lower price point and shipping it to me. <br /><br />I live in NY and I've ordered a Cuisinart food processor for my aunt in Vancouver off that was marked up about 5-fold on the Canadian Amazon website versus the US Amazon website. We finally ordered it on Home Depot in Washington and they had visiting friends pick it up in-store. Clearly there ARE issues with retailing in general in the great white north. 3ppmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10861300111561941627noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-55499313178307843602015-08-19T18:03:52.058-04:002015-08-19T18:03:52.058-04:00This comment has been removed by the author.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15748716793401919727noreply@blogger.com
