Try Before You Buy?
Shop owners around the world are getting increasingly annoyed with the latest trend of customers coming
into their shops just to try things on, but not to buy. They have decided to do something to stop it.
As online shopping has become more and more popular, some shop owners have noticed that although
their shops look busy, they aren't making much money. This is because customers are keen to save money
by buying online but are worried about choosing the wrong size or colour. So they go to the stores to try
on clothes before going home to order them from a website.
But now stores in Australia have come up with an idea to stop this. They are asking customers to pay a
'trying on' fee.' Winter sportswear shops have introduced charges of up to $50 to try on boots or other ski
wear. This charge is refunded if customers come back to buy the items within seven days.
It isn't just ski wear; some bridal shops have also introduced charges. Martha Jones, owner of Wedded
Bliss, a bridal shop in Melbourne, explains, 'We get a lot of people who are here not to buy dresses at all.
Either they try on in-store and then shop online, or they are girls who are even getting married; they just
want to see what they look like in different wedding dresses. Fitting a woman for her wedding dress is a
specialist skill that we take very seriously, and we put in time and effort to make sure the dress is exactly
right.' The fee has been successful: 'We've had fewer time-waters,' explains Jones, 'which means we have
been able to give our real customers an even better service.'
Would you pay to try on clothes? Do you think it is fair to charge brides to try on dresses? Let us know in
the comments section below.
