GBI 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.

GBRip 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.

GBI 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.

GBVibrant colors abound The bag has a cool shape, bright color, its a little smaller than I would have liked but aside from that a welcome addition.

GBCustomer service never returns phone… Customer service never returns phone calls and emails are not promptly responded to either. Ordered 4/27 and very late evening of 4/30 received email that order would be delayed. Called in morning of 5/1 and emailed. Email response was shipping that day or next with tracking info. Never received anything so emailed 5/7 and called & emailed 5/8 to cancel. Disputed charge and at end of business day, HOBO sent email that cannot cancel & shipped order for supposed delivery on 5/12. Now I am supposed to return when received to get refund even though already disputed. Have zero clue if will actually be delivered by 5/12 as I have plans due to holiday. Customer Service is abysmal as phone sends to voice mail automatically with no return calls. Only response is email when they get around to it.
