The size I needed was in another store when I went shopping in Columbus OH last Saturday night. Wednesday night I opened the box they shipped (free!) and found the thoughtful note from the woman who had waited on me so graciously. As I opened the box, I remembered shopping with my mother when I was little. The experience evoked a sense of nostalgia. Von Maur offers not only free- shipping and free alterations but who receives a hand-written note these days? Customer service is exemplary. My DIL says they gift wrap your purchases for free, too! WOW. I wish we had a Von Maur in Pittsburgh.
So do I! [Wish they had a Von Maur in Pittsburgh!] With a hand-written note!!! My goodness.
Love the string of the last days of photos – Magical!!!!
is that your Mother of the Bride dress?!
Always makes me laugh when after purchasing a half a dozen or so small items you are asked if you’d like a bag
I love packaging, you really captured the elegance here.
Love that store and so does my daughter.
So do I. I was upset when the Waterfront Macy’s eliminated the gift wrapping section.
Once upon a time in America….Every store could feel like Saks Fifth, Bonwits, Bergdorf, Tiffany,,,Now one is fortunate to find a salesperson, then one who actually speaks (kindly) and knows the product(s). Now just very tired cashiers. Bravo to Von Maur. Love your photo work. Lois
Great photo – it makes me wonder what’s inside
Kaufmann’s used to be that way too. I’d go downtown on the bus. Buy stuff and have it all delivered for free. The used to do free gift wrapping too. Sure miss that store. Macy’s can’t compare in any way.
I reposted your article on Facebook, I too think that Von Maur is what Kaufmann’s used to be. How can we get them to come here???
