Dear Sir or Madam good and happy holiday

I spent $1,000 in this store today, but the manager treated me with an extremely poor attitude. I have no idea what I did to offend her. I've been coming to this location for two years and have never experienced anything like this. It made me feel very unhappy and uncomfortable.
She even falsely accused me of returning items "too often." I must strongly disagree with this. When the store doesn't have certain items, your own employees special-order them for me. Sometimes they accidentally order extras, and they tell me to return the additional items. Yet this manager claims that I "love to return things," which is completely untrue.
On top of that, she even told me that I "stayed in the store too long." If I don't take my time trying on clothes and checking whether something fits, or learning about the functions of the products, how could I possibly feel confident spending so much money? LL Bean products are not cheap. Is this something a manager should be saying? This feels like discrimination and an abuse of authority.
At this point, it honestly feels like a shame to spend money in this store -- especially when I spent so much today -- only to be treated this way.
You really need to be careful with this new manager. Her attitude is terrible, and she treats people differently. I am an older customer, and most LL Bean shoppers are also older adults. No one wants to spend a lot of money just to be treated disrespectfully.
I've visited many LL Bean stores and have never had such an unpleasant experience. The female manager's name is Grace -- please stay away from her.
I will also be telling the elders in our church not to visit this store anymore. Please be aware.
And if the store continues treating customers this way, you will close down sooner or later. Just look at the REI store next door -- it has already shut down.
I will never shop at this location again. read more
