    I ordered a pair of UGG boots through Amazon on 12/15/21 (which have a year warranty through UGG) but they came from Houser Shoes. I couldnt return through Amazon even though they are defective so I went through Houser Shoes directly. They told me I needed to go through Amazon and we went around in circles. On the last phone call, they told me I could return these to them and then I could buy a new pair from them at a discounted rate. These are defective! Houser Shoes sells defective merchandise and will not accept exchanges. Theyre customer service (*****?) is horrible and he is a smug man who knows he has stolen from others. This business needs to be looked into and I will keep going up the chain of command.

    Unfortunately, ************************ was never given access to upper management by the manager in our ecommerce department.  We were unaware of the problem until we received the complaint from BBB.  Once I received the notice, I began my investigation of the issue and discovered that neither myself or ************ ********************** had been made aware of her concerns.  I immediately contacted Mr. ********************** and he instructed me to contact her and advise we would be sending the new boot and she does not need to return the defective boot.  This situation was not handled properly and without making excuses, our ecommerce manager has recently taken on the position and had not been instructed properly on how to manage this type of issue.  Today, December 2, 2022, I personally packaged and shipped out the new boot to ************************.

However, BBB does not verify the accuracy of information provided by third parties, and does not guarantee the accuracy of any information in Business Profiles.

When considering complaint information, please take into account the company's size and volume of transactions, and understand that the nature of complaints and a firm's responses to them are often more important than the number of complaints.

BBB Business Profiles generally cover a three-year reporting period, except for customer reviews. Customer reviews posted prior to July 5, 2024, will no longer be published when they reach three years from their submission date. Customer reviews posted on/after July 5, 2024, will be published indefinitely unless otherwise voluntarily retracted by the user who submitted the content, or BBB no longer believes the review is authentic. BBB Business Profiles are subject to change at any time. If you choose to do business with this company, please let them know that you checked their record with BBB.

As a matter of policy, BBB does not endorse any product, service or business. Businesses are under no obligation to seek BBB accreditation, and some businesses are not accredited because they have not sought BBB accreditation. BBB charges a fee for BBB Accreditation.
