I recently completed a fragrance shop at a high end store where the MSC paid $25.00. The guidelines mentioned that a purchase had to be made, which I found to be okay. The scheduler mentioned that after finishing the survey, I was required to upload the receipt, and then send the purchase to the client's address for a full refund. I've done shops like this before with this MSC, and have never had an issue with the refund process.
During the shop, the sales associate had upsold the product like she was suppose to, yet had ultimately gone beyond my budget due to also having a limited inventory. I reluctantly made a purchase of $378.00, and completed the shop survey the following day.
The hardest part of the shop really arrived in explaining the $378 charge on our credit card. In explaining the guidelines + shop process, my wife smelled the fragrance, and mentioned that it was probably the best that she's ever smelled. She asked if she could keep it, to which I mentioned that I would have to ask the scheduler. After the scheduler confirmed that I had the option of keeping the purchase, I immediately said to myself "Oh s**t." My wife, intent on hearing the scheduler's response, was obviously elated.
I nonetheless told my wife to think about the purchase. I've since hidden the perfume somewhere in my house so that she wouldn't open it just yet, in the event of her changing her mind.
The life of a shopper making high end purchases.
