I ordered from my workplace several years ago ( this is the only time in 8 years that this happened ,automated warehouse, no problems since! ) I had ordered a beige 40 H bra ,the invoice and the Baggie were labeled 40 H bra beige . Problem?<br /> The contents of the Baggie were by no means a bra or even for the top half of the body. I received a pair of jeans that were a women's size 30 ,light wash flare. They were HUGE! !!( I tend to wear a 20 womens to a 24 usually and mom wears 16-20 depending on the cut/ fit)<br /> I did end up keeping them as a gift for my very plus size aunt ( who adored them) as the price ended up being around $6 something for $50 jeans . </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nordstrom-sob-story#post-1265640 Sat, 31 May 2014 15:55:22 +0000 Angie 1265640@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My fingers are crossed.

The Oregon store has one in the color and size I want and it is now on its way to me. No more tears!

I received a dress from Anthro when I ordered a shirt. The invoice was correct, but someone just tossed in the wrong item. I'm sure they get crazy busy and work very fast at the distribution centers or stores or whatever. I'm actually surprised there are not more mistakes made.That doesn't help your situation, though! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nordstrom-sob-story#post-1264280 Thu, 29 May 2014 21:08:49 +0000 Laura (rhubarbgirl) 1264280@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oops!

The item I received seemed to have another person's name on it and I even suggested that maybe she would call to say she had received my oatmeal large and we could do a trade. That was wishful thinking on my part. But the Customer Service person did confirm that the item I want is no longer available either online or in stores. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nordstrom-sob-story#post-1264258 Thu, 29 May 2014 20:54:23 +0000 crutcher 1264258@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Just a suggestion, have you tried calling customer service and telling them your problem?...I have called Nordstrom CS and had them check their stores for something I felt I "hadtohave"...Hope this works..<br />I know how disappointing something like this can be... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nordstrom-sob-story#post-1264242 Thu, 29 May 2014 20:35:58 +0000 Jenny H 1264242@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>If anyone has tips for a similar style topper in a summer/light color (and sub-$100 price point), I'm all ears! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nordstrom-sob-story#post-1264239 Thu, 29 May 2014 20:33:36 +0000 Thistle 1264239@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am so sorry it worked out that way!!&nbsp; And yeah, things fly off the shelves once Nordies does a sale.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nordstrom-sob-story#post-1264233 Thu, 29 May 2014 20:25:14 +0000 Anonymous 1264233@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, I'm sorry to hear your order was botched. I hope you're able to get a light topper somewhere else&nbsp;that will fill your wardrobe hole.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nordstrom-sob-story#post-1264227 Thu, 29 May 2014 20:20:30 +0000 Jenny H 1264227@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well I'm bummed out. I ordered one of the items Angie called out from the Nordstrom sale. I was so excited to see it had arrived today, however I was bummed once I opened the box and saw I received the wrong item. I ordered the heather oatmeal color in large (an off white color) and received the heather charcoal in medium. At this point, the one I ordered/wanted is no longer available. The worst part is, I think it would be a keeper one size up and in a more summery color (I already have three charcoal toppers and do NOT need another).</p> <p>So so so so bummed out. Photos of the one I received below.</p> <p>P.S. I need to get back on the habit of being on YLF more regularly. It's been a super busy month and doesn't seem to be letting up...</p> <p>UPDATE: I called Nordstrom again this morning. There might be one in my size/color in an Oregon store. The Customer Service person will get back to me after the store opens later today. If that doesn't work, I'm tempted to have them send me the Heather Oatmeal in Petite Large. I have a short torso and I would plan to wear the sleeves scrunched, so maybe the Petite would work ok for me. Fingers are very, very crossed!</p>
