I must admit I didn't read the rules and stated I returned item because I ordered according to my J Crew size which didn't turn out to be my Madewell size. There goes my 15 minutes of fame. On a side note I just received Madewell Lace Primrose top which I think is still in stock on sale if anyone is interested.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-31901753039624482512013-01-09T18:49:30.467-05:002013-01-09T18:49:30.467-05:00Whaaaa....?

It was a smart move to start off with Madewell since it's only been around for a few years and there are so few B&M stores to try things on in person. Any company that has a final sale policy for online purchases should *always* offer online reviews, IMO.Whitneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09430359756472736482noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-20268881786314085482013-01-09T11:36:08.963-05:002013-01-09T11:36:08.963-05:00Good to point that out, JustVisiting.
That is pr...Good to point that out, JustVisiting. <br /><br />That is pretty standard boilerplate for writing product reviews. I don't think much of people who write a product review that just talks about the service. Not helpful, and not the place for that!J.CrewJDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07464373354705821248noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-65500106218027425922013-01-09T11:31:58.687-05:002013-01-09T11:31:58.687-05:00Wow that's interesting....Wow that's interesting....Beautifully Seaside // Formerly Chic Coastal Living https://www.blogger.com/profile/15725365556318195217noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-60678340104343704922013-01-09T11:22:40.860-05:002013-01-09T11:22:40.860-05:00I really hope they go to having customer reviews a...I really hope they go to having customer reviews as standard practice. It would really help cut down on the amount of returns if there was some more information on a product besides how one of their designers found a pattern on some vintage scarf in Budapest. It's fun to have a little background story on an item like that but I want real world reviews without having to search through blogs. I love Anthropolgie for this reason, not every item is going to look good on everyone and that's okay, it's nothing wrong with the product, it's just the nature of fashion. Returning items is a pain and I'd be more likely to spend a little more if there was more real world information like true sizing, body type feedback from buyers, how thin or thick a knit is, what is the color really like etc.katertotthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00753296265256829722noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-45472984036421555802013-01-09T11:21:41.841-05:002013-01-09T11:21:41.841-05:00I bought almost all the Madewell items I own in th...I bought almost all the Madewell items I own in the store, so no e-mail for me.
