      Answered
      I took a brand new pair of shorts in to their store and spoke with a nice woman about altering them. She was very confident that they could do the alterations, so she gave me the price and I paid her the $148.50. A few weeks goes by, i haven't heard anything, after a month they called me to come in for a second fitting. When I got there they basically told me that the first lady I spoke to shouldn't have taken on the job and that they couldn't do what I asked. However, they had altered the shorts and tried to do it, but to no avail. So now I have a brand new pair of shorts that has been cut up and altered, but not in the way we discussed. I wanted them to give me the money for the shorts and a refund, but they said no, so I agreed to just a refund and they would return the shorts. They then send me an email with a document attached that is essentially an NDA and say I have to sign it to get the refund and the shorts back. I am not signing an NDA, so... I went online and posted a review stating exactly what I have said here, and then they emailed me to take it down. I am not taking it down. They are hold both my money and shorts hostage until I do so... I tried to fight the charge via my credit card company, but they lied to **** and showed them the receipt as proof. Well they ask for payment upfront, so of course there's a receipt, but there were no services rendered. Please help! Attached is all of the emails that will verify my story.

      They took my clothes for tailoring and never returned them.

      This statement is categorically false. We have been in regular communication with the client about scheduling a free delivery of their altered clothes and the client has been unresponsive, causing the delay. We will continue to reach out to the client to schedule the delivery.
