The Worst!!
The Worst!!! I hardly ever leave bad reviews because if I have a bad experience, I usually just refuse to patronize said establishment again. BUT, I have to post this... I purchased several items (over $300) from the Quicksilver store that is located inside of the Blue Mall in Punta Cana, Dominican Republic, in early May, one of those items was a pair of slides. After only 2 weeks, the slides blew apart while I was walking on the beach one day. I went back to the store in the mall to exchange for a new pair. The lady in the store called her manager to get the okay to make the exchange since I did not have my "paper"receipt; I did however have electronic proof from my credit card transaction history. They said that this was not good enough and wouldn't exchange the damaged slides for a new pair! I reached out to their customer support department hoping to get this rectified and here was their response: "Quiksliver Customer Support

Hello Barry,
Thank you for contacting Quiksilver Customer Service!
I'm truly sorry to hear about the issue with your sandals.
Unfortunately, as the customer service team for our online store, we have limited access to transactions made through physical stores or third-party retailers, and we are unable to access their information.
Due to this, all returns and exchanges must be initiated through the original point of sale, as their policies differ from ours, and unfortunately our system does not allow us to process or override claims for purchases made outside our official website.
I completely understand this is frustrating, especially given the circumstances, and I sincerely apologize for the inconvenience.
We truly appreciate your understanding. If there's anything else we can assist you with, feel free to reach out."
First of all, who hangs onto a receipt for clothing items once you've tried them on and felt no reason to return or exchange any of the items? This isn't an appliance or electronic device! Secondly, this is not a case of a simple, I don’t like this product or this item doesn’t fit, it’s about a defective product that bears your name! As a business owner in the vacation rental space, I will make it a priority to notify not just my clients but also the clients of my business partners, to never support the Quicksilver brand again.
