OOmega OOahh Slide Sandal

I purchased the OOmega OOahh Slide in the Stardust color from Nordstrom Rack online. I assumed these would be "new" shoes. When they arrived and I picked them up from one of my local NR stores, I brought the box home (didn't open them at the store) and placed it in my mud room for 2 days. When I opened the box and opened the shoe bag to pull the shoe out, I noticed immediately that the bottom of the shoe was dirty and had been worn several times outside and then returned to the store. What's really irritating is that if you look at the picture of the bottom of the shoe, the NR store employee had to have seen these were DIRTY and WORN OUTSIDE because they placed the Nordstrom Rack sticker on the bottom of the shoe!! The customer service / quality control of both Nordstrom and Nordstrom Rack has gone down to a level 1. This would have never been acceptable a few years ago, never. I returned the show the next day from the NR store I picked them up from. When the the sales associate pulled them out of the shoe bag and started to say that they had been worn and could not be returned, I informed her that they were shipped to me that way and if I had worn them, the NR white tag on the bottom of the shoe would have been just as dirty as the actual bottom of the shoe (hmmm). They returned the shoe with no issues, but I took a picture of the shoe with her holding them. The lesson learned from this experience (and keep in mind, I have ordered shoes from NR for years and they have never been worn)...don't order online from Nordstrom Rack because clearly they ship our dirty, used, worn shoes and try to sell them as new.
