I have consigned with…read moreHaley Ross for years and plan to continue to do so because of of her genuine kindness, knowledge, and follow through. She always goes above and beyond! Haley arranges my consignments seamlessly from time of pick up (or drop off) to when the items go live on the RealReal website. The new RealReal boutique on Walton Street is very fun (and quite addictive) to shop. They showcase an excellent selection of jewelry and handbags that I adore. You could easily not even know that you were shopping consignment because the items are pristine and merchandised so beautifully. Chelsea and Julia are spectacular, and I cannot recommend enough for the chic style suggestions and assistance. I highly recommend Chicago RealReal for consigning and shopping!

They came to my house picked up over 25,000 to 30,000 designer merchandise and I was assured that they would not sell anything if I did not agree with the pricing. That's where the nightmare began the pricing I did not agree with at all. It was way $15,000 in bags and they offered me $1700 and had the audacity to remove commission !! I told absolutely not shit my things back immediately the first box I should've drove down there and picked it up, but I didn't. I trusted them. It's 40 minutes away. gonna happen. What happened was I never saw that box again ever it was not sent to my to be signed off on by UPS it was sent to the UPS store in I had to find out by checking my email when I went to go pick up the box to get my things. There was no box someone had picked it I said well who I don't know someone the person answered. Well, don't you sign or take ID no so they were also accountable and rather than doing the correct thing and being decided to take it as a sale against against my wishes, knowing they were in the would have to pay much more than that and fees for the item besides the sentimental value that I would never they had the audacity to treat it as a sale and even deducted commission fees and sent me a lousy check for lowball me by over $12,000 basically saying there are your items but we decide what to do with them. This is unacceptable I said absolutely not. sent the remainder of the things and the third box there were four missing items in the which the employee add the four items onto your account and we'll reimburse you for them for the months it's been tag you're it tag you're it. I've written letters. I've called corporate. I've even called The RealReal now I have to drive down there this week. Where are my bags? Where are my four other missing items worth $1800 which by the way if you have any attached chain, you know if you have a Louis Vuitton red bucket bag, and buy separate for 400. They'll remove the chain and take it. I'm in a struggle to get my at least some of my money back. I no longer trust this company, they traumatize me causing me a nervous breakdown and they don't care. Today was the latest shenanigans when they sent me a letter. Or I my email that the UPS store manager signed off package for Mary from The RealReal. I was taken by surprise. I wasn't expecting anything. Maybe it's my bags I got excited. I went there today Sunday to check the bag was small size, and I knew it was in my the majority of them were smaller and the audacity of the woman that owned the UPS store said well how do you know they weren't your like trying you know entrapment they don't take accountability and have to reimburse the victim. Their money I said because they're and I would know what size they would be in a much box. What happened to me was despicable disgusting bile. Every time I see number or leave my voicemail they avoid it. I told him if I took be a win-win situation and you would have to pay over 100 times but the trauma they caused . I'm tired. I'm exhausted from them. UPS is even worse. Why is it the Company Condo we're supposed to just shut up and take it. They violated credit consumer laws they violated, they committed criminal act they went in, but you know beyond their own guarantees as a company and lie. As you can see below, these are just some of the bags that took me three years to purchase and save and I was excited and all I have from them now our memories. look at the red bucket bag you see the separate chain that's a Louis Vuitton chain you buy those separately. Anyone will tell you they ran from three $50-$500. The RealReal removed it like it didn't exist off. They took it off I am furious. They cannot get away with this. They caused me severe trauma. I suffer from depression. They

My lovely wife and I finally visited the Fashion Outlets of Chicago for the first time over the…read moreweekend. Technically this shopping emporium is in suburban Rosemont, and hardcore shoppers from out of town have been known to make some last-minute purchases here before flying out of nearby O'Hare Airport. Most local shoppers drive here, and grouse about the cost of parking to shop here. We arrived via the free shuttle bus that makes a circuit around Rosemont hotspots and connects to the Rosemont CTA Blue Line station. We are not huge shoppers, but we enjoyed checking out a variety of stores and eyeballing the public art installations. There were deals to be had if you wanted them. We also enjoyed a couple of free treats from the wonderful chocolate shops, and there is a decent food court if you need a bite to eat. Amazingly there is also a 7-11 where you can get a beverage or snack, and the prices seem to be the same as those in standard 7-11 stores not embedded in shopping emporiums.

Parking at Fashion Outlets of Chicago is something to be aware of before you go. The first hour is…read morefree, but after that it costs about $13 per hour. However, if you shop in the stores, make sure to ask for parking validation--you can get up to 3 hours free, which is very helpful. Overall, it's a really nice place for shopping. You can find a wide variety of stores, including many great and even luxury brands, so there's something for everyone. The mall itself is very clean, modern, and comfortable, which makes the whole experience more enjoyable. Definitely a good spot if you're planning a shopping day.

I see a lot of sales associate standing around and was thinking they would be helping people, but only some would. It was weird when my friend and I walked around and there were these sales associates just standing in the corner and glancing at us. But there is a wife selection of cute casual to formal clothings. The value is more upscale. Overall it was nice to come downtown and look at the clothing here and there's plenty of stores around the area for shopping as well.

I recently visited this store with my friends, and we were treated absolutely unfairly. After…read morebrowsing and peacefully walking out (without buying anything), one of the workers came running after us and accused us of stealing. We were shocked, confused, and honestly embarrassed, in public for something we didn't do. They didn't ask politely or explain anything. They just assumed. No proof. No apology. nothing We cooperated and showed them we had nothing, and instead of admitting their mistake, they gave us attitude and let us go like we were guilty. This kind of treatment is completely unacceptable, especially when you treat young customers like criminals just because we're teens or don't "look" like your usual shoppers. We came to shop, not to be profiled or harassed. I will not be returning, and I wouldn't recommend this store to anyone who values basic respect.

She is on the phone. "Hi, may I take a quick picture?"…read moreI asked politely. The lady responded, "no photo, goodbye." While this short poem pretty much sums up my 30-second visit at Oriental Boutique, it is also an acrostic that describes the lady's attitude and the service. I was looking for a traditional Chinese dress (i.e. Qi Pao) for my girlfriend, whom I am going to marry. However, most of the designs cater to kids or tourists (that might explain why most positive reviews were written by non-Asian customers... just saying!) and very few of them are for adults. As someone who grew up in an ethnically Chinese background, I had seen and worn more culturally authentic and better designed traditional gowns and dresses. Many designs displayed in the store seem "oriental" in a western sense or as in what westerners think "oriental" should look like, but this is just my subjective observation and honest opinion. The lady was on the phone all the time, and when I asked her question, she literally answered, "no photo, goodbye." Okay. BYE. NEVER AGAIN! Wish I could have given a zero or a negative number.

Stopped into this shop on my way home from work today…read more Kulture is in an accessible location maybe less than a mile off Lake Shore Drive. I was instantly greeted by one of the workers who was very helpful in explaining to me what brands they carried at this shop. All of the brands they carry are Chicago based which was great to see them supporting local designers and artists. I learned that they also do printing at this location so it's a great spot to get your merch printed and possibly work with them on selling your merch in their shop. There is a dope memorial piece at the entrance in memory of Chicago's own ZackTV which is worth going to check out. I would recommend this shop to anyone looking to see what local Chicago designers have to offer and anyone interested in streetwear and fashion.
