Then, when the box is left at your door in the pouring rain and it is damaged from the bleeding colors on the tag, they won't accept a return, blaming it on the post office instead of their poor packaging. <br /><br />The customer "service" people I talked to were incredibly rude, condescending and completely unsympathetic and unhelpful. I was a first-time customer and would have likely spent lots of money with them on future orders since I have a hard-to-find size if they had valued customer service at all.<br /><br />I will NEVER shop there again!!<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-706716744772949852.post-87069041941711198322014-07-16T15:48:28.728-07:002014-07-16T15:48:28.728-07:00Hi!

I cannot wear a full coverage bra because it gaps up top, but a lot of their suggestions were just that. There were some good points though. Their suggestions for where straps should start in the back for me were right on, the gore being close together because I too have little room there and the wire style for omega breasts. One thing I wish these companies provided was a review of how each brand/style runs. For those of us delegated to online shopping that information would be incredibly valuable.

I don't freaking care if a lovely bra that stops at a GG, for example, would be great for my shape, given that I need a JJ/K/KK. In fact it makes me even more annoyed and frustrated to have it thrown in my face all the things that might work, but I can't have, because the companies don't make enough sizes.<br /><br />Additionally, they ask what your current "best-fitting" bra size is, but they don't ask whether you are actually happy with the fit! Nor do they ask any questions that might reveal poor fit for someone who is less knowledgeable about fit. <br /><br />So while I appreciate that their focus is on shape, they should really either fully incorporate size requirements/information, or else leave it out entirely.raspberryleafhttp://www.bratabase.com/profile/135/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-706716744772949852.post-44141178735386736602012-09-09T16:59:57.179-07:002012-09-09T16:59:57.179-07:00I'm reassured that such a well-meaning and ext...I'm reassured that such a well-meaning and extensive site exists, and that it's getting profiled in big presses.

There is no mention of this at the start, and no mention of what they want it for, no link to a privacy policy etc.<br />Since they flash a NWS warning before it starts, they obviously consider its content private and/or offensive, so a company that combines this attitude with no respect for their survey-takers is not one that I would consider purchasing from. <br /><br />And if they wanted to be truly useful, and not simply appear to be nosy, that would have been quite easy. Take all the nipple, shoulder, assymetry-questions, for example. They could have had the option, on all these, to say "this is of no concern to me when I choose a bra" to mark this a neutral.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
