Any experiences with Boston Proper?

Hermes

I have never purchased from them, but I do receive their catalogs. There was a long beaded paisley skirt I loved that they carried a couple of years ago, and I ended up seeing the identical skirt on victoria's secret for a considerably less than BP was asking.

The quality of their items varies, IMO. Kind of mid-grade. Again, they're selling the same items other stores are selling -- most if not all of the items they offer are not exclusive to them.

If you do find something you like in their catalog, take some time to look around and see if you can find it for a better price before you buy from them.

No experience other than to say I received a nice email response when I asked to be taken off their catalog mail list because they started carrying items trimmed with real fur. The response said they respected my feelings on the subject and would definitely pass my comments upstairs. Most don't bother to respond at all.

Thanks for the opinions. I did notice the price points were a little high for a catalog I was not familiar with but that could just be me not being familiar LOL. I'll have to try comparing items with other online sites to see if I can find the same or similar items at cheaper prices.

I bought a few items from them. They quality is fine. Not great enough to rave about, but not poor. It was what I expected. The items I ordered were a pair of black capris and 2 button down blouses. I may have ordered a belt too... Hmm....

I didn't have to make any returns, so I can't speak to their customer service, but I was in no way disatisfied with the order/shipping/etc.
