I had taken a blouse to be altered at the beginning of April for a wedding coming up memorial Day weekend. The tailor told me to come back April 24th to try on the blouse again, and by the time I got there he hadn't even touched the blouse and told me to come back in 2 weeks. So I came to the third time, two weeks before this wedding, and he still hadn't touched my blouse. The worst part was I had no time left before the wedding to even visit Jersey City again, so he saw my frustration and tried to get it done in 20 minutes.

So check your clothes before accepting them back after...

Three weeks was not enough time for them to alter my sari, apparently. When I went to pick it up, it was obvious they forgot about it and asked me to come back the next day (a huge inconvenience but I had no choice). The sari was obviously rushed; there are loose threads and sequins everywhere and they forgot my underskirt. So I even paid for something I didn't get.
Oh, and they upped the price of the choli when I tried to buy it a second time even though they quoted me a lower price first. Look at the other reviews -...
