Truworths sells Poor quality goods

At December time my son who is 10 bought me a wallet from Truworths...the price was either R310 or R390..it was ****** Mary Wallet and it was to replace one that was ******...IT IS ONLY AUGUST and the wallet has fallen apart, part are broken and pouches have holes in them. Unfortunately my child had to buy from Truworths because his aunt had offered to pay for the gift for me.....I know Truworths standard comments like if you don't have the receipt, etc, etc but only you stock ****** Mary.

I had an account with you guys and closed it due to issues just like this and it is very disappointing that you are actually selling poor quality goods at high prices and then when the product cannot be used anymore because of poor quality you take no responsibility.

Truworths called me to apologise and make excuses for their inferior quality but apparently if I use my wallet every day I should expect this to happen. Surely if you are paying this much for an item it should be of good quality and also do they expect me to buy a wallet and use it once every month????????? Your customer service is as bad as the quality of your products. This wallet has come apart completely and all you can say is that I must expect this because I use my wallet on a daily basis. Your service is shocking

I have no response as you have basically said if it breaks and is Truworths fault it doesn't matter as long as it is out of the 6 months and this is only the 8th month at that. When did Truworths even decide to inspect the item to determine workmanship. All I was told was that I should expect it to break if I use my wallet daily. At the end of the day I will ensure I let as many people as possible know what kind of product and service you provide. And I know I will never ever shop at Truworths again because I did not expect any kind of replacement but I did expect you to show respect in terms of actually checking the quality of the wallet.
