  I'd be better off throwing my clothes in the trash. First when I walked in, no one said a thing to me. I brought in two glad bags full of clothes and left with them both. While I was shopping, I had someone CLEARLY following me around and when I actually needed help, he was the least bit interested. I grabbed what little money they offered me (for my designer clothes) and scurried out of there. Never again! The “owner” of this store, Ghinger Erickson, is the most unprofessional and immature person I have ever come across in this city. She called my place of business trying to sell ad space in a guide and then became belligerent when I told her no thank you and we were not interested. She wouldn’t take no for an answer and continued to harass me by calling after I asked her not to call again, then emailed five times, and finally went to post slanderous reviews of our business when she was trying to sell us marketing services. I called the store and spoke to her husband Allan who actually is the owner and told him of her uncalled for behavior. He did apologize and said he was unaware of this happening. He said he would speak to her about it but she continued emailing after I called and then proceeded to “ban” me from the store. I would never shop here to begin with, but she is a stain on this business and society. I think it’s time to go back to Texas as this kind of business model has no place in Anchorage. It’s obvious why there are so many poor reviews all over the internet about this place. What a joke! Response: Your wife said she is the owner to me multiple times, harassed me and then posted numerous slanderous reviews of my practice online, so yes that does warrant me to comment on your store. Then she banned me from ever coming there so that is quite a negative experience solely based on her own invalid reaction to me saying “no thank you” to her offer of marketing solicitation. What business owner harasses and slanders a local practice after soliciting them for an ad? You should speak to her about her behavior and misrepresenting your store by treating someone like that for no reason. If she takes down her negative reviews and completely stops all communication as I’ve asked numerous times now, I will delete mine as well. If this continues I will have a cease and desist letter served to you by our legal team for her slanderous reviews as she never called as a patient as she claimed in her slanderous reviews. Her call clearly started off by asking to speak to our marketing team about an ad in a guide for newcomers to Anchorage. I have her phone calls and emails as proof so I would rather solve this amicably, but am prepared to step it up if she continues as this is unacceptable behavior. We work hard to maintain our 4.9 rating and due to her lies it has dropped us to a 4.5. Our practice has been a respected local business for over 40 years and my whole staff works extremely hard to maintain our positive reputation in the community. It is unacceptable to tolerate this and I will not allow her lies to taint what we strive so hard to maintain. I had a really pleasant experience there today. I went to sell a jacket and some boots and they purchased them both off of me. The girls behind the counter were polite, genuinely friendly, and the entire process was very quick and easy. The owners spoke to me a little bit afterwards and they are both very friendly and seem to take their customer service very seriously. I'll definitely be back, that and I saw a sweater that I liked so now I have to go back! I was wondering if you were interested in becoming a vendor for a treatment center for teens who do not have much clothes. I feel as though Plato's Closet is perfect. Reasonable priced items, trendy for what the "it" style right now, and my personal experience with Plato's Closet is always wonderful. I went in just to browse with my girlfriend today which is just 1 day before our baby shower, I had just so happened to find a better fitting pair of pants, I tried them on multiple times to get an opinion from my girlfriend and for myself ofcourse, they were aware I had came in with her and a family member, the whole time browsing I can literally see/feel them breathing down my back, this is even after I had, had a convo with an associate who actually asked for my soon to be born baby's name!!. After all of this we decided to find what we needed (if any) and get tf out of there because it was upsetting. When we were reaching the door the same associate that was told my child's name asked to check my bag
