Gang Green Girl Posted January 8, 2006 Share Posted January 8, 2006 After Christmas, I bought a pink Pennington jersey in Modells on Long Island. I never liked those jerseys that didn't use the official team colors, but I've sinced warmed up to the idea and I bought it because it was on sale from $55 to $14.99. Do you think they knew something I didn't? Anyway, I wanted to wear it to the season finale at the Meadowlands last week against the Bills. When I put it on, I saw that the security tag was never removed. Don't you just hate when that happens? Yesterday, I went to Modells in NYC (where I live) to have the tag removed. I relayed the story to the saleswoman. The saleswoman called another worker over and had her check to see if, in fact, the alarm would go off (even though I assured her that I did NOT just steal the jersey). The alarm didn't sound. She called her manager and after a brief exchange, she told me that the security tag could not be removed without the receipt (which I didn't have). I asked to speak to the manager. The manager told me that, without a receipt, jerseys must be returned to the store in which they were purchased. He explained that the computers in each store work independently of each other and that I needed to go to the store it was purchased so they could check to see if a pink jersey was purchased there. They sold the same jerseys in the store I was in yesterday. I said to him: I'm sure a pink jersey has been sold here. But he was one of those guys who takes his job seriously and wouldn't budge an inch. I asked him what he would have told me if I said I had received it as a gift. He told me that he would still not remove the security tag. So now I need to go back to the Long Island store so they can check the computer to see that a jersey was purchased and then they can remove the tag. WTF. All this trouble for a $14.99 jersey of a player who may never play again. jetfan13: I hope you are reading this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tennessee_Jet Posted January 8, 2006 Share Posted January 8, 2006 They gave you a bunch of BS. All they had to do was call the other store to verify. Go back and ask them again. If they still refuse tell the manager you want the name of his District Manager and that you want him to call him right there to settle this matter. He will cave.

Savage69 Posted January 8, 2006 Share Posted January 8, 2006 GGG you usually Sex up your Jersey's anyway..Why not just cut the Tag out?? Or let Brenda wear it once and the Tag would have been launched into outer space! :wink: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJ Posted January 8, 2006 Share Posted January 8, 2006 Why not just cut the Tag out?? I was going to suggest the same - but didn't want to get accused, again, of being a slow midwestern farmer type. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Garb Posted January 8, 2006 Share Posted January 8, 2006 So, not only is the Jets front office a joke and the coaching staff in limbo - but sales people handling Jets merchandise are as incompetant as Herm Edwards' clock management - and the common theme is: Jets fans keep on getting f'ed over, and over and over.....
