Its been an absolute nightmare working…

Its been an absolute nightmare working with this company. I have been waiting for my refund since April! I provided supporting documentation proving the return yet, I have been getting conflicting information from incompetent customer service representatives for months. Ongoing communication with the store managers have not resolved the issue. I would avoid this company at all cost.

First

First, my return too way too long to process a refund. It was $3000 and it took almost 1 month.

Secondly, I have consigned many items and specifically asked TRR NOT to discount my high value items without approval. Yet - they continue to do it. Why?? Who’s not getting the memo or reading my emails. I have sent and texted many times. Customer Service needs to step up their game.

Relatively good experience

Relatively good experience, easy check out, great selection, accurate description of products. I would recommend if you have something in mind that you want and even if you don't but you want to hunt something down, it's a great option.

Happy Tiffany & Co. shopper!

You had several of the Tiffany & Co Charm that I was looking for. Specifically- the one made in Germany. It is the original & the appropriate Tiffany blue. You kept me apprised of its dropping price as well. The purchase was super easy & it shipped very quickly. Came to my address in a nice big box, so it couldn’t get lost in the shuffle in shipping. 100% Happy!!!
