cynosure trauma

So, this is a story about when i went to cynosure in dupatta gali, liberty, lahore for my eid outfit, as i just needed a quick fix, and they are good for casual outfits at affordable prices.

There were already a lot of ppl in the shop, too over-crowded and hey had closed their changing rooms so that noone was able to try on an outfit which they wanted to buy. So, i was checking whether an outfit fits me or not in front of the mirror, and i hear i loud noise, i dont think about it that much, but then i hear someone screaming next to me, and there’s this dead silence in the shop, i turn around and there’s this girl standing at the counter, with her hand to her face and she’s screaming and shouting at the shopkeeper, saying things like, ‘how could u hit me?’ and the guy was shouting back that she was the one who was trying to steal stuff from him,

after that she was crying and screaming a lot bcoz the salesman had slapped her right across the face, bcoz she had directly come to the counter with a dress she had bought the day before and that she wanted to have a size change, but the guy thought that she was sneaking off the dress bcoz it was still in the clothes hanger, to which she replied that she had brought it from her home and it was her own hanger and that all she wanted was a size change, also she showed him the receipt, but he kept saying that 4 dresses from his outlet had gone missing and that she was a thief bcoz she came to the counter and showed the dress, when she was supposed to show it one of the junior salespeople…

all the women (well some) said that the guy was wrong for slapping the girl and that whatever she had done, he shudn’t have slapped her that way…

well, the girl was obviously distraught and went to call her mother from the car , also there was extra police deplolyed right in front of the shop, and they were summoned too. The salesman who had done the deed told everyone to leave the shop, some women were saying they wouldn’t be back to a place like this, and they quickly had everyone get out and shut down the shop…

i dont know about what happened next but i get a bad feeling everytime someone mentions that place, never going back there.

plus their duppattas sucked anyway so, i guess it just turns me off now.

Re: cynosure trauma

i like their clothes =\

Re: cynosure trauma

oh wow thats just crazy.

Re: cynosure trauma

my mum just came back from pak and got me tons of outfits from there! They are always nice to us :-)

Re: cynosure trauma

HAHAHAHAHA okay sorry but the wayyou said it--its pretty funny (not the incident)

I hate to say this , and be pessimistic but i'm sure htat store will still be open even after hte incident. storekeepers do worse and yes the security/police show up but it's all for show..just a bunch of garbage, sad to say.

Re: cynosure trauma

^ yea , i know it is,

i was a fan of their stuff too, but that guy crossed a line that noone ever should. They're pretty pleasant most of the time, but he was stressed out that day, not that anything can be an excuse for what he did,

oh, they're pretty much open, but there are better shops with better customer care, and i wouldn't want to face someone like that again

Re: cynosure trauma

Wow! They have nice stuff and sales people are always nice to us and other people in the store.

Re: cynosure trauma

OMg that was really bad. I remember something like this happened in Shaheen (Islamabad) about 8 years ago where 2 women with a few children came into the shop with school bags. It was so obvious what they were doing. It was really busy at the time and they kept on passing various items to their kids to put in their school bags. The salesman caught them and the women kept on changing her statements saying: “bachay hain” “hum ne koi chori nahin ki”. They were stealing openly :smack: Anyways the police came and a huge scene was created.

It is possible that the girl went to Cynosure to steal but then God knows what really happened.

Re: cynosure trauma

A very bad situation Indeed. Kissi ko us KK ko bhi thappar marnaa chaiheye tha.And also that shows Ke that was a bad SALESPERSON...not a Bad COMPANY. Employees sure are a big Liability for companies.

Re: cynosure trauma

slapping the girl was totally out of line whether she actually stole it or not.

I dnt know if its the same guy
but 2 years back when i was on my summer holiday in Pakistan, i went to the same cynosure branch in liberty lahore with my cousin, the shop wasnt very busy, i liked a few outfits and so i was in the fitting room trying them out,

so i spent about 15 mins in the fitting room, but during this time, some lady had come into the store, and was complaining to the guy that worked there that the suits she had bought ( which were in bulk, for some party i dnt knw the exact details apart 4rm that she bought about 20 - 30 suits) that there was something wrong with them, and that she wanted her money back

A screaming match erupted between the 2 ppl,which went on while i was trying on these clothes, and it got progressively worse with the guy in the shop calling this lady all sort of unacceptable names, which were outright innapropriate, Another member of staff who must have been away somewhere appeared and had to restrain the guy as he became increasingly abusive and hostile.

ANyway there was no excuse for him to react to a customer in this way, it was totally unprofessional, so i wonder if its the same guy,

needless to say ive never had a problem in any of the other cynosure stores

Re: cynosure trauma

:O omg

Re: cynosure trauma

oh it was the girl's mom who called the police, not the other way around.

tweety_pie, i guess that guy just has a bad disposition, sounds like him.

Re: cynosure trauma

how immature and unprofessional! He has no right WHATSOEVER to slap someone even if he assumed that he STOLE from his store.. seriously wth?? is he that UNPARHH that he's running a business yet even after providing him with a receipt he still blamed her..

i dnt think id ever do business with them..

Re: cynosure trauma

he shouldnt have done that. he slapped the girl for an outfit worth a few thousand rupes(maybe?) while risking the store's reputation. thats really dumb
