| - While visiting Las Vegas earlier last month, I decided to visit the outlet for an afternoon (just because, honestly my husband and I had nothing in mind that we wanted to buy).
Salvatore Ferragamo is quite a high end brand that is in the same league (to give you an idea of price point) as Dior, Fendi, Gucci, etc. But to be honest, I am not too sure if Salvatore Ferragamo handbags are quite my style (whether I can afford a handbag or not is another story). But figured I would walk into this store just to take a look.
Upon entering, I was quite disappointed that none of the employees bothered to greet me. I suppose my laid back clothing style that I was dressed in (I was on vacation) upon entering the store did not convince them that I was serious on buying anything in the store, so they probably thought 'why bother'.
While I walked through the store and browsed the handbags, 2 female sale associates walked by me and watched me as I picked up one handbag to see what it would look like on my arm. Both of these female employees just stared at me and really did make me feel uncomfortable. I just kind of looked at them but said nothing but really wanted to ask them if they had a problem or wanted to say something to me because that was just awkward.
Trying to shake off that feeling, I walked around the store some more. I understand that the employees are cautious with the items here because they are quite expensive. And I suppose theft is something that would cross their mind, but one male sales associate was also watching me as I walked towards the back of the store to browse the clothing. He didn't bother to say hello, but just kind of stared at me. Again, I don't really know what gave these employees the idea that I would come into this store and try to steal anything.
And with that rude service towards me (they were quite stiff and snooty), I walked out and have no intention of ever purchasing anything from this store or this brand in the future.
