I had always been curious about Bop and finally decided to stop in last weekend while I was walking down state street. BIG MISTAKE. From the minute I walked in I was treated like a criminal. They have a police officer stationed at the front door and I got dirty stares from the three sales women as if to say, \"What are you doing here?\" (Side note: my friend and I were the only two shoppers in the store so I'm not sure why they needed four people working a.k.a. sitting there vacantly... seems like a bad business model.) I noticed they had a good selection of J Brand and Rag & Bone denim and I've been in the market for new jeans so I picked out a few pairs and headed to the dressing room.\n\nIn my experience at other boutique shops, an attendant will introduce themselves, set you up in a dressing room, ask if you need help, etc. Not at Bop. I ended up showing myself to a dressing room. About 30 seconds later, one of the sales women had appeared and asked through the curtain \"If I could please put my purse outside of the dressing room.\" Mind you, my purse was a small cross body that can barely fit a phone and wallet let alone fit a pair of jeans in it. Like I said... they treat you like a criminal. I complied and dropped my bag outside my room. I tried on each pair and showed my friend how they fit and not once was I offered help to find another size or color. The woman literally just sat there and didn't even try to hide the fact that she was watching me for shoplifting.\n\nEven though I found a pair of great J Brand jeans I liked for $190, I decided I did not want to give revenue to a business that treated me so poorly. I ended up finding the exact same pair of jeans on Nordstrom.com for $60 less. My advice to Bop: If you're expecting shoppers to spend $100+ on clothing, you should offer good customer service."^^ .
