Love Letters From Customers


With the Review & Win sweepstakes going right now, we've been getting ton of new feedback from our incredible customers. We get reviews on our products daily, but every once in a while, we'll get a hand-written or typed letter sent via the regular postal mail that makes our day. I know, I know... you've all heard about the "lost artform" of an actual letter and how the world is going to shrivel up and fall out of orbit because nobody sends actual letters anymore... But, thats not where I'm going with this.

As a techy, 99% of my communications are in a digital format. But the loveliest of lovelies is when I receive something handwritten or even typed out with an actual stamp on the outside of the envelope.

CONFESSION: I have a little bit of an obsession with handwriting, and I have been known to save notes from people (and customers) whose handwriting I adore. I have a note from a customer regarding his exchange that was sent last November because his writing was so incredibly awesome that I couldn't throw it away. I think to myself, "maybe I'll make a font someday based on his writing..." wow, I may be a little crazy.

Anyway, this was all just to say, "I got a letter and its really nice! Here, I will share it with you..."

To Whom It May Concern:

I recently bought the "Authentic Tight Lacing Premium White Leather Underbust Corset" from your website and I wanted to let you know that I'm incredibly impressed and pleased with my purchase! Not only was the corset soft and comfortable, it's durable and strong. I was amazed at how tight I could lace it. Even though I ordered the corset 6" smaller than my natural waist I was easily able to tighten the corset without breaking anything and without any help.

The instructions that came with the corset were easy to understand and very helpful, especially since I haven't owned what I would consider to be a "real" corset before. I've bought cheap corsets from other websites and they always seemed to break the first time I tightened them! I was always so disappointed to see that what I considered to be a "real" corset would run for nearly $400 on other websites. So when I saw your corsets I was shocked at the price and of course a little hesitant.

But I must say that I couldn't be happier with my order and I will most definitely be ordering from Orchard Corsets in the future! I've told all of my friends about your site and I've happily worn my corset almost every day since I bought it! Thank you so much for these beautifully made and reasonably priced corsets!!!

Sincerely,
Jessica (last name removed)


Aww, Jessica, I (heart) you. Thanks for taking the time to send us this loverly stamp-mailed letter. And we are so SO happy that you love your corset! I think I might make this a regular feature here on the blog - love letters from customers. It makes me all happy inside. Spread the love people!
