Description
I saw an ad on Instagram for a lovely dress on sale from the Charleston Boutique in South Carolina (no such place). I checked that they offered a 30 day money back guarantee. I purchased the dress for $54.95 with Paypal. When I received the dress, it looked nothing like the photo and was made with inferior quality. I contacted them about a return and was told that it would cost me $127.00 in return shipping. Instead, they offered to let me keep the dress and get 10% cash back. This is not acceptable. I want my $54.95 back, but moreover I want to report this company for fraudulent practices.
