Wow. I knew that Patagonia was one of those great brands (B Corp, 1% for the planet etc.), but my visit to their shop this morning really sealed the deal. I've been looking for a rain jacket for a multi day hike I'm doing in Tasmania next week and decided to spend the bit extra on a jacket from Patagonia, because I like their values and know the stuff will likely last a bit longer. I ordered it online and got the wrong size and so decided to bring it in to their Bathurst St shop to exchange it.

Never going back there, we got exceptional service at a Kathmandu store even though it isn’t as close for quality as Patagonia. Staff members need to improve their...

Staff service is inconsistent at this particular store. Charley and Tom were great to speak to and very helpful. The lady with European accent and short hair was not (I think her name was Valeria). I noticed her being mentioned in many other reviews. She was rude and curt, unhelpful to other customers in the store (telling them this item doesn’t come in a XL size…questionable) and clearly didn’t want to help us. ACCC/Consumer Fair Trading would walk all over the issues we encountered. The manager was helpful in the end and resolved...
