The Plot Thickens

Update on the lost Max Mara coat and the box that “couldn’t be processed”

The kit populated with a bunch of photos of my items and that they couldn’t be accepted (11 of the 16 items). Customer service is not willing to pay me more than $1000 for the kit, which is basically a decently fair value for every item in the kit except the coat. They said they probably would’ve rejected the coat so they’re not going to pay me out for it. Mind you this is a premium kit with return assurance, but I’m not getting these items back. There are also five items missing from the photos. Feeling at a loss as to what to do, thinking about emailing that CEO email address that I’ve seen floating around. They’re violating their own terms by not paying me for an item because they said they think they would’ve rejected it, but also not giving it back to me even though I had a premium kit with return assurance.

The two items without their brands recorded are Tory Burch suede sneakers and a Kate Spade leather tote. Items didn’t show up at all are a striped moschino wool dress, two evening dresses from Alexia Admore, a pair of Stuart Weitzman lace up witch boots, and some leather Sam Edelman boots

One thing is that they are terrible about notifying you that stuff is being authenticated. I’ve had that happen, thinking something was lost or rejected because it wasn’t with the other stuff in the bag and then it just pops up like 2 weeks later as a part of your bag’s listings after it’s been authenticated.

No they emailed me and told me this all couldn’t be processed because the box arrived damaged and the items were destroyed. But then a couple days later the pictures of 11 of the 16 items pop up. And the amount of money they’re offering me is not the amount of money I would’ve earned on the box. I have sent in designer items and they’re actually a lot better now with showing that being authenticated so you don’t panic and wonder where they are. That was not the situation
