Business ProfileforL & J Fashion & Tailoring, LLC

On Saturday Oct 8, 2022 I arrived at L&J Fashions ~9:30am to pick up a dress I had dropped off several weeks previously for tailoring. At the time I dropped off the dress, I was asked to leave my name/phone number on an index card so he could contact me when my dress was ready&also promised that it would be ready on Oct 7. I was charged approximately $60 for the alterations & paid in cash. I was unable to be at the shop on Oct 7th so I came in the AM of Oct 8. When I arrived, the business could not find the dress I dropped off. I was told that he would look around the shop&call me back that day. ~1 hour later, I received a call during which the business said that they could not find the dress but would pay for a replacement,shipping& tailoring services in time for the event I was planning on wearing the dress to (Oct 14). I agreed &purchased another dress ($298.00+ship) which arrived Tuesday, Oct 11. I took the dress into the business for alterations that day. The business was apologetic about losing the original dress&asked for a receipt of the replacement so they could reimburse me. I forwarded an emailed receipt&left the store. At ~6:40 AM on Oct 12 I received a text from the business claiming that the dress was picked up by me&he has a text message to prove it. I explained I didn't receive the dress when I came in to pick it up. I called the business on Oct 12 at 9:23 am to ask if the replacement was ready to be picked up&was told no. The business also stated that we needed to clarify things before I came to pick up the replacement dress&accused me of already picking the original dress up. I said we would discuss when I got there. I arrived this evening to the business. He gave me the replacement dress, showed me a text on his phone dated Oct 11 when he texted me saying an item was ready for pickup, which he tried to use as proof I picked up the original dress. I left the store with the replacement,no reimbursement&was not asked to pay for alterations.
