I felt I had to write this review as a cautionary tale about buying high-end items online. While the reviews rave about the in-store experience, trying to navigate their website led to serious sticker shock without the benefit of personalized service. My immediate feeling was that it is a little pricey but worth it in my opinion. However, when that opinion is formed online, without the staff interaction that justifies the cost—like those who worked with Gracie or Matt—the “worth it” part is very difficult to justify. I purchased a standard item, expecting supreme quality, but the final price felt excessive for what arrived. That's why I immediately reached out to customer service to understand the discrepancy and why the value seemed so low relative to the cost. Customer: I’m calling about my recent online order. I understood that the hats are premium, but the final product I received feels significantly overpriced. I paid a premium price and the quality for a non-custom piece is disappointing. CS Rep: I completely understand your frustration regarding the perceived value, especially since you purchased this without the benefit of our full in-store consultation. Our prices reflect the quality of materials and craftsmanship, but I apologize that your online experience didn't convey that worth. Customer: Craftsmanship or not, the price tag is staggering. It felt like I was paying for a premium service I didn't even get online. Why should I keep this when the value proposition just isn't there for a standard item? CS Rep: That is a fair point. To help remedy this, we can certainly process a return for a full refund, or if you prefer, I can schedule a virtual design consultation with one of our specialists like Garrett or Gracie. They could walk you through the details and perhaps offer an exchange for a piece that truly feels “worth it” to you. Customer: An exchange consultation sounds like the only way forward. I really want to love this hat, but right now I just regret the purchase. CS Rep: Absolutely. I will set up that consultation immediately. We want you to feel the same excitement that our in-store customers like those who worked with Witt or Jenny feel. We’ll be in touch shortly with the details. If you have any kind of inquiries concerning where and how you can utilize oePPeo Cap Store, you can call us at the web site. The reason I left this review on the website is to hopefully prevent others from falling into the same trap of buying sight unseen and realizing the price does not justify the standard product.
