Poor customer service. Bought a Sheila bag. Had it for three months and the zipper broke and the stitching coming out. Had to pay to ship it back and they decided to credit my account instead of sending a new one. They didn't have the same color but also didn't offer to send a different color. If I buy a new one, they will no longer honor the 30% off that I had originally received. So now they want me to pay over $100 more. Sorry, to me that is not taking care of your customers.

I purchased a Hobo wristlet in a… I purchased a Hobo wristlet in a boutique in Sebastopol, CA. After one month of use, the wristlet. After only one month of use, the strap broke. Hobo will not send me a replacement until I send them the broken one, but they also will not cover shipping costs. This seems like really bad customer service in an era where most companies are making it as simple as possible to return defective items.

First class products AND customer service I own five Hobo purses and have enjoyed the fine quality over many years. I regularly return to the brand when I am shopping for a new bag or different style. Two years ago, I had an unusual experience with a recent bag purchased whereby the leather stain rubbed off on my clothing.This had never happened before. I contacted customer service for help. I am even more impressed with Hobo after their customer service representative worked diligently with me to correct the problem. I provided documentation, followed their requested steps, returned the bag and received a new replacement. They were responsive and diligent in resolving the problem. My only past frame of reference with a manufacturer supporting their product and providing great customer service are with Maui Jim and Shark (vacuums). Hobo is in the same class. As with Maui Jim and Shark, I am committed to the Hobo brand when I am ready to shop for my next bag! I can't recommend Hobo enough!

Rip off company | Lacks Ethics Rip off company. Received a gift bag, purchaser received a deep discount on the purchase. The purse was defected, not sure if this is intentional. Wanted to exchange, only can exchange via Hobo Bags site. Which I did and this is when I learned that the $138 bag sold to purchaser for $110.90 [wth tax]. As I process the exchange I learn of the discount. As I was completing the process & I changed style of bag, a bag that retails for $128. Hobo Bags requires to pay the difference. from the amount the purchaser paid to cover the difference so that Hobo Bags gets paid their full retail amount. So, Hobo Bags is making more money on the exchange than the original purchase & is off the back of the person who received damaged purse in the beginning. Hobo Bags only offers gift cert. on exchanges, so I completed the exchange, paid the $26+ difference, returned the 1st bag. I chat w/associate & they refuse to do an even exchange citing that I was purchasing a higher dollar item? I doing an exchange, Hobo Bags should have written off the $2+ diff to honor the original purchase. If they don't then they are price gouging the customers. They are enriching themselves off of their exchange policy. Bad business, bad product, bad business ethic. Not sure they knowing sold defective product in exchange for deep discounts. Maybe. All in all will do business with them again.

I received a Colter crossbody handbag… I received a Colter crossbody handbag and wallet for Xmas. The bag appeared poorly made. I contacted them January 3rd by phone and gave sent several emails with no response. I asked for a store credit. NO RESPONSE. Usually items are of excellent quality. This was not. Today called again after no replies to several previous emails(last yesterday). I've rarely, if ever, left a negative review, but this customer service experience or lack there of is unacceptable.
