The proprietor scammed me
The proprietor scammed me. I was preparing for a performance and my instructor wanted me to buy a hairpiece to give my hair some more volume for the costume. I had never bought anything like this before so I went to the store ahead of time (before I went with my instructor) to make sure they had what I needed. The owner was very rude to me when I walked in but then warmed up a little bit. He showed me what they had that was what I was looking for and they had a good selection. I was a little suspicious because nothing had price tags on it. He told me everything in that section was $20-25. When I went back with my instructor, the proprietor was much nicer to him than me and they looked at many items while I looked on (because I didn’t really know what I was supposed to buy). They settled on something and we went to the cash register where the guy told me it was $80! I was pretty shocked but I went along (my mistake). The proprietor had taken the hairpiece out of the box to show it and didn’t give me the box—he just stuck the hairpiece in a cheap little plastic bag (like a grocery bag but smaller and cheaper) by itself and handed it to me. For $80 I would have at least expected to get the box. I now think it was because he scammed me on the price and didn’t want me looking it up. When I took it to my hairdresser, she said that it was wrong for what I wanted (it had the wrong clips and so could only be used for a ponytail, which was specifically not what we wanted) and it was only worth $15-20. So I got scammed on the price and now can’t even use it. I should have read the reviews of this place because someone else said they were scammed as well. Just go somewhere else or buy online.
