Bergdorf Goodman

Some of the salespeople are obnoxious and annoying but Eli in handbags on the first floor is one of the sweetest, most genuine and most knowledgeable (NOT pushy either) salespeople I have EVER worked with. This store also has the best shoe department in the city if you ask me - and they ALWAYS have sizes and great sales at the end of season. Coats are definitely lacking and 5th floor has a lot of useless salespeople but there's a girl named Zora who's very attentive.

The greatest thing about this place is despite the high prices they treat their customers well and provide them with information on sales on a reular basis. I've got mailings from them that alerted me to some sales that saved me almost half of my luxury purchases! This is decadant but worth every extra penny. Live a little!

Pros: Great Sales

Cons: Usually Pricey

Bergdorf Goodman is possibly the BEST department store in the world. Yes, it's expensive but they choose the best of the best from luxury high fashion to put in their store. The jewelry and watches will dazzle you. The handbags are incredible! They have the best ready-to-wear from Chanel, Prada, Miu Miu, Stella McCartney, etc... just to name a few! If those designers price tags (in the thousands$$) are too much for you- check out their famous 5th floor- legend for more afforable yet still super lux contemporary wear- think: $250 jeans, $300 dresses and great sales!!! ENJOY EVERYONE! This store is A+++

Pros: Excellent merchandise/Buyers

Cons: none

This department store really does have a great selection of top of the line clothing and really cute things and a wide variety of cosmetics and such, but it is just too expensive for my taste, but I definitely enjoy looking around.

Everytime I go to Bergdorf's I ask myself what was I thinking? It's not that the clothing or shoes aren't fabulous, it's just the arrogant customer service. They seem concerned when I'm purchasing a $3000 bag, but when I go there in my jogging gear and beat up sneakers after my pilates class, I am treated like a shoplifter. I can't stand the fakeness. I value service. Good service should not be determined by class, color or appearance, but should be like liberty and justice, guaranteed to all! Management needs to set a better example. In addition, the skin care department doesn't know anything about the products they are recommending which makes them look pretty stupid.

Pros: Clothing

Cons: Customer Service

Took my neice who is here on a business trip from CA into the city yesterday to shop at Bergdorf and she got so excited seeing the window displays in front of the store that I stopped to enjoy them as well. Sometimes when rushing in and out to pick up something you don't notice how wonderful the displays are. they are a work of art in themselves. Then we were greeted by such friendly staff inside, my neice was overwhelmed by the selection there. Overall a wonderful shoppping experience.

Pros: Nice selection of Quality merchandise

What can I say? Best beauty level in the city, most amazing sales and couldn't live without having a Gotham Salad at least once a month!

I LOVE this store. Not only is the selection and merchandise absolutely fabulous, but the customer service is impeccable. Whether you are spending $100 or $10,000, the staff at Bergdorf's will treat you wonderfully. The return policy is great as well. The only drawback is, of course, the prices - but for this type of quality and merchandise it is to be expected.

Pros: GREAT merchandise, Wonderful staff, Good return policy
