Feeling a little insulted but I took it well

I just went to do some bank deposits for work and the teller that served me asked me if I bought my dress online from Shein

I said no, it’s a Tommy Hilfiger

She said the material looks like the types of dresses that she sees on Shein. I said have you ordered from Shein before? she said no

I love my dress and I think it’s super cute

I can’t help but feel a little bit insulted, but I was my ever so friendly and pleasant self to her

I have never purchased from Shein or other similar chinese internet retailers, but I'll guess that she's seen images that look as nice as the dress you have, but in reality are probably *much* lower in quality. If she had ever purchased from them she'd have known the difference. I have a neighbor who nice-looking messenger bag from Shein and it was really poorly made. She tried to return it and that wasn't possible. I guess it was cheap enough that she gave up - maybe that's their sales gimmick? Sell junk that isn't worth returning?
