Kept damaged goods. Said they can't order new one.

25 January 15: I went into Truworths, Cresta. searching for a particular outfit and had the code and all details. Unfortunately they were out of stock, I requested to check if there is the garment in the size I needed at another branch. Clearwater mall was contacted and was asked to keep the outfit for me to go in the following day. I gave my details to the consultant, and made the arrangement. I then asked a worker at Cresta what time The Clearwater branch will close, and told that on Monday they would close at 6pm. On Monday I leave work 30 minutes early to drive 30 odd kilometers to Clearwater mall and getting stuck in over an hours traffic to reach before closing time. When I reach Truworths I inspect the outfit only to discover that it is damaged ! . The manager, Clementine said that she knows they should have checked the outfit the same time I requested for it to be kept. She goes on to tell me how its IMPOSSIBLE to do anything, in the sense that I have to look for another branch and go to them to collect as only if I have an account will they deliver to Cresta and for free at that. This clearly shows that it was possible.
