I've
been
shopping
there
for
about
10-15
years
because
I
love
the
excitement
of
a
good
find.
I
got
the
most
awesome
coat
there
one
year,
it's
been
about
10
years
and
I
just
can't
part
with
it.
I
continue
getting
compliments.
The
reason
for
only
2
stars
is
the
owner.
There
is
something
about
her
dimeanor
that
is
a
cross
between
snubbery
and
a
negative
aura.
I
brought
some
clothes
for
resale,
many
years
ago
and.
She
took
maybe
one
or
two
pieces,
the
rest
she
discarded
with
an
undertone.
I
felt
really
bad
walking
out
of
there.
I
never
went
back
there
for
consignment.
The
next
few
times,
I
was
a
customer
and
I
got
the
vibe,
something
along
the
lines
of
"you're
a
lesser
citizen
for
shopping
for
used
clothes
here".
Another
time,
I
tried
engaging
her
into
a
conversation.
I
complimented
her
for
a
great
business
venture
and
suggested
that
she
opens
a
location
in
Naperville,
where
I
live.
I
am
a
supporter
of
small
business,
especially
women-owned
businesses.
As
a
former
small
business
owner,
I
would
welcome
such
feedback.
Instead,
she
gave
me
a
laugh
and
said
something
along
the
lines,
"never,
ever
will
I
go
back
to
that
awful
town,
where
I
lived
with
my
ex".
This
was
another
moment
with
the
owner
that
has
stayed
with
me
for
all
these
year.
It
is
for
the
first
time,
I
am
reading
the
reviews
and
they
hit
home.
In
part,
I
am
glad
that
it
wasn't
just
me
being
rubbed
the
wrong
way.
Her
responses,
although
mostly
positive,
are
rather
shocking.
You
just
don't
see
such
owner
responses
on-line
often.
One
negative
comment
after
another,
mostly
about
her
being
so
disliked,
she
just
doesn't
seem
to
get
a
point.
My
suggestion
to
the
owner,
would
be
to
take
a
back
seat
role
and
allow
her
staff
(they're
all
wonderful
and
she
did
a
wonderful
selecting
them)
run
the
store
operations.
I'm
sure
there
is
plenty
of
work
within
the
business,
that
are
not
customer
facing.
Perhaps,
the
back
office
operation
is
the
owner's
best
talent
and
allow
her
staff
to
do
what
they
do
best.
I
wish
the
owner
much
success
and
I
hope
that
she
takes
this
feedback
constructively.
