Devi Kroell
Loved the devi kroell hobo - I am such a back fanatic - had to have it when it first came out - 3 years ago - sold out everywhere, barneys, bergdorf -etc. still had to have it so I contacted her number off the web - this was when she was operating out of her apartment in NYC - contacted her & she said to come down she had a few to sell - she could take credit cards etc - So excited - got the bag $2,400 at that time - one week later the handle fell off - needless to say theis was where my nightmare began - she would not fix, return, repair or do ANYTING for me - I purchased the bag from DEVI herself - she was rude and stuck up - she said I must have put too much in the bag - so it was my fault & I was responsible to find somewhere to fix it(the bag is sooooo gigantic & I had like a wallet, cell phone, chekc book & keys)
She would not return calls so I gave up - about 1 month later I was shopping in Bergdore & she happened to be there doing a trunk show - I approached her and began to talk to her about my issue - she told me to leave Bergdorf & how dare I come into that store to see - stated if I was not permitted to talk to her & if I did she would call security
I am a very good customer there & was sooo upset -
she is a rude, stuck up snob - her stupid broken unused bag sat in my closet forever - it is such a thorn in my sided - I wanted to make it known to whoever could listen
Thank you
