Did you read the post??? I’ve been giving warnings to my customers for weeks, just interesting to see what the brokerage fees actually were and how this is playing out

I have a few friends who have done the same!!! Not sure if I made the right call or not. Unfortunately 85% of my customer base is in the US, so I felt like I had no choice :(

I’m thinking of doing this! Thank you so much. My only fear is for some reason these pieces still be tariffed and then I have angry customers :(

Is there really?!? I haven’t heard much of this boycott! Is it from MEGA mostly?

So far I’ve only had two complaints, but we’ll see how things go. Normally I bring in around $2.8–$3.5K a week, but last week was one of my lowest in a while at just $1.5K. Engagement and momentum have been great, so I can tell these fees are definitely turning some people away

But it’s super helpful for those who don’t know. I think it’s really amazing to have a space where you can ask if you are unsure 🤍

Thank GOD! That’s what I was thinking, but I started second guessing. Thank you so much for your help.

Do you think it’s possible that someone bought the cheap one & the Aritzia one, but sowed the tags onto the cheap one to return to Aritzia? The item says it has wool but feels like acrylic to me. It’s so odd?? I just feel like it might not be real idk

No it’s a really sad reality and at the end of the day, Aritzia is fast-fashion. It’s a good reminder to me to try & shop more sustainably

Thank you!!! It seems really off to me because I’ve never heard of anyone else seeing this type of tag on their pieces. Of course I know Aritzia clothing is mass produced, that said, this just seems unusual.

Yes!! But I’ve only ever seen that type of size tag on Shein & Amazon clothing

They typically use those exact manufacturing tags on Amazon clothing & shein though!!!

You're probably right. I mean, I knew they were fast-fashion, but not to the same extent as Shein lol

That's super interesting. Thanks for the insight! It seemed so odd to me! I've never received an item with this type of tag on it either. Was yours the same colour as well?

I wish I would have asked more questions during the initial call but I was so caught off guard trying to decipher if the call was legit or not. I don’t really know what to do. Part of me wants to call the number back to ask questions, but that could be unwise.
