Call the STORE right away. They always replace or refund forgotten items, even if you aren't physically present. Don't wait!

Don't wait until next Monday (wtf?)!


Yes. Why would you wait to call? The longer you wait the less credble you seem!

When I called Sephora CS re: a missing item from an online order, they told me to go to the closest store to get a replacement item. I did that (at Pentagon City) and had no trouble whatsoever at the store. I brought my receipt and they took care of everything for me.

Then, to top it off, I received an email from Sephora CS noting that they tracked that I went to to the store (I am guessing by my original order #) and they wanted to see if everything worked out to my satisfaction.

customer service told you to go to the store and you just said, okay dokey? You didn't mention during that phone call that you were out of town so they could tell you what to do?

Definitely call as soon as you can. I've had good luck with stores fixing mistakes made by cashiers.

I would think they will refund if you call the store. Usually if you just go back to the store with your receipt, they give you the item no questions asked. They will take your word that cashier made a mistake.

Try calling and in case that doesn't work, you can always dispute the charge on cc.

Thank you! I just don't know how I can prove that they did not include the product. It was a mess in the store, everyone shopping, staff running around - they hardly remember anything. I will try calling them tomorrow.
