Product Questions
1. Question - Does The Fabulous Collection sell fakes or
knock-offs?
Answer:
The short answer is ABSOLUTLEY NOT. Just remember, no
matter if you are buying or selling knock-off purses it
won’t matter to the police, you can still be charge with
a crime.
These illegal purse party companies have damaged the
image of this industry immensely and I feel that part of
my responsibility is to try and change that image by
selling fully guaranteed legal brand name merchandise.
2. Question - What sort of merchandise do you carry?
Answer:
The Fabulous Collection carries only top quality brand
name handbags supplied by merchant’s right across
Canada. We carry brand names like Soprano which you have
likely seen on the shopping channel along with XOXO,
Carlos G and many lesser known brands. We also carry
jewelry, scarves, wallets and sunglasses depending on
the season.
3. Question - What price range is our merchandise?
Answer:
Our purses range anywhere from $30.00 retail in the
lower range and $90.00 retail at the top end of the
scale. Our fashion accessories and sunglasses range from
$15.00 retail to about $60.00 retail, so very reasonable
if you ask me.
4. Question - Is the product in the catalogs the same as at the
purse parties?
Answer:
The Fabulous Collection has consultants in most
provinces across Canada resulting in a diverse
clientele. Our consultants are free to order what they
feel is right for their particular market; therefore
what you see in our catalog may or may not be at the
purse party you attend.
If you want to order something specific you should take
a look in our catalogs prior to the party and pre-order
it from the consultant in your area. That way you’ll be
sure to have it for the party.
5. Question - Where is the product shipped from and who pays for
shipping?
Answer:
All orders are shipped from our warehouse in London,
Ontario. If you are a consultant, you pay the shipping on
an order by order basis, which will be quoted once your
order is placed.
If you are a customer who ordered through one of our
consultants, you will not have to pay any additional
shipping charges. If you are a customer that’s ordering
from our catalog you will receive FREE shipping if your
order is more than $100.00.
