York Cleaners, 4433 George Washington Memorial Hwy: Customer Beware!!!
I took my formal black wool double breasted men's winter dress coat that I've owned for 23 years for alterations (since I was never happy with the coat length) to York Cleaners. I picked it up without looking under the plastic bag, placed it int my closet, and finally decided to wear it to church a week later on 26 December 2020. To my dismay, what I now had was a Stephanie Matthews, women's missy size 18, single breasted (buttons on left side) coat: a cheap knock off. I thought that there had been a mistake and my coat was in the hands of some other customer. So, I made two trips to the shop and complained to the management, but here's the kicker; they swore that the women's coat I now had was the coat I gave them. At no time did they take responsibility for the switch or my complaint. I feel lied to and of course upset that I have lost my very special formal coat. I'm sure it will command at least a $450-$500 price in Seoul, Korea where it may be today. Even if I had looked at the coat the day I picked it up, the management would still claim that what I dropped off was a women's coat. I will no longer do business with this dishonest establishment. Customers beware and photograph any high end item to be laundered or tailored with these crooks. Better, yet, avoid them all together. You will be better served somewhere else. read more
