AEE - Agriculture & Extension Education. MAKING A CLOTHING PURCHASE COMPLAINT
What do you do if a permanent press shirt isn't really permanent press, fabric
in a garment wears out readily, or colored trim bleeds onto the garment?
Bringing your problem or complaint to the attention of the textiles and
clothing industry can result in better merchandising practices and products.
Failure to complain can cause you aggravation and unhappiness. The industry
cannot learn what consumers want unless they speak up. Consumer interest has
brought about changes in how fabrics and garments are made and marketed. As
consumers, we have a responsibility to speak up in order to insure desirable
merchandise and marketing practices.
Before you complain, ask yourself these questions to make sure you can defend
your position:
* Did I abuse the garment in any way?
* Did I wear it as the manufacturer intended?
* Did I follow the care instructions?
Some buyers make unjustified complaints
