    Before this I absolutely 100% loved crushes, but after todays experience I'm a bit unsure... I was pretty stoked to hear that they started stocking some vintage plus size clothing. So I went in and found some jeans that I absolutely loved (which is a bloody rare thing for me). It was 40" and listed at $30, I know this because that's literally the reason I first picked it up. When I went to the till it was priced at $45 without really looking at it. Somehow the tag got lost, I was carrying it around the store so it could've been anywhere (might've been upstairs where we didn't look). I really wanted the pants but to hike it up $15 just by taking one look at it? Kinda weird to evaluate it at one price, put it out on the floor and then when someone's about to buy it, hike up the price. Maybe a system should be more in place to prevent it (although I do understand that it is a vintage store with one off pieces). I was just excited to find something plus size thrifted, at a great price to then just be disappointed like that. If I could've gotten the pants at the price the tag said I'd be happy and would have no beef with Crushes but again, I was pretty guttered. Other than this, Crushes was my go to store to get gifts. If you want to support local this is a great way to do it and see some cool things. It's just this experience that left me with a bad taste in my mouth.

    Hands down one of the best retail spaces in Tāmaki Makaurau, but so more than just retail - a true, inclusive community of like-minded & beautiful people.

😠 Disappointed with the poor customer service my Fiancé and I received from this store.

The store assistant wasn’t very helpful and at the end s...
