Shopping In Paris Means Dealing With Irritated Salespeople

Paris might be known as the fashion capital of the world, but prepare yourself for rude sales reps if you decide to shop there.
The famed Avenue des Champs-Elysées, which features some of the biggest names in fashion, was ranked as number 22 in terms of customer service.
Reports showed that 40% of the time the sales staff seemed irritated to have to deal with customers.
Leslie Kambourian, an account director in charge of fashion and luxury at Presence, reveals:

“I was surprised that locals are so friendly toward tourists, but less so that the level of customer service in stores, conversely, is lagging. But you do get a sense that certain retailers are making an effort to improve customer service.”

Would you continue to shop at a location with rude salespeople?
