Very disappointed with Harris Scarf Chermside. Today I rang in to check if they had any 30L cubic pedal bins that I saw online for $59.97 #539502003 and over the phone two different staff members confirmed that they did have this exact item (as I gave them the code) for $59.97 and they would put it aside. I arrived at the store 30minutes later just for this item and was told it’s the same brand but an upgraded model and the cheapest price I could get it for was $97. I told them no I just rang and you put it aside for the agreed price of 59.97. They told me this could not be done so I left without purchasing it. Not good enough! It should have been given to me at the agreed price or I would not have gone out of my way to collect it.

We to Harris Scarfe on the 27th about 12 30pm 1 check open. The shop assistant was busy serving her custom who had lots of plates and dishes each one had to be wrapped in tissue paper. I asked if we had to wait for all the plates to be wrapped. I explained we had a bus to catch if we missed it we had to wait 1 hour. Thinking she may have called for help as we had been waiting for a while. No way, the kind lady said she did not mind if she served us, we spent over $100 and caught our bus no thanks to the shop assistant who realy did not want to serve us. Our Thanks to the kind lady we did allow plenty of time to catch our bus but did not thinking only 1 check open with no back up.

  • Holly Urquhart

Ordered some stuff online that arrive so badly packed that a number of items were broken. I called the Chermside Harris Scarfe to ask what I could do, and couldn't have received a more helpful staff member when Paola answered! When I came into the store a couple of days later to exchange the damaged items, Paola remembered my call and had clearly briefed the store manager, Scott. They were both so amazing and so, so helpful even though it wasn't their fault that another store can't pack things properly. Thanks again Paola & Scott - easily the best customer service I've received in a very long time. I won't bother online any more and just come straight to you in the future!

  • Peter Steer

I was after a white Van Heusen shirt for my daughter's wedding. HS Carindale didn't have what I was after. Came to Harrie Scarfe, Chermside in the hope of being suited. Well I can't speak highly enough of Michelle from Menswear who knew her stock, and found a couple of alternatives for me to try on. This lady knew her product, and gave professional advice and her opinion with respect to fit and suitability. Great old fashioned service....very rare these days. Thanks so much Michelle, and well done Harries Scarfe. If all your staff are as friendly, courteous and professional as Michelle, then you're on a winner!! Peter Steer

This review is not a reflection on the store but a staff member who the other day was at Dan Murphys. On the floor at the checkout are two rows of standing circles, for two queues for two registers. She stood to the right/off centre, so I stood in the left. When I did that I saw her rudely roll her eyes at me and when the register in front of me opened, in my queue, she abruptly jumped in front. Disgusting, as I left, I sternly told her never to roll her eyes at me again. There's no way I'd ever go to Harris Scarfe now, knowing this is how the service is and that she'll be there.

A large retailer with many amazing offers and discounts.

I wanted to purchase a kettle just before Christmas. It was $29.95 but the stock was all sold out apart from the display item. A staff member put all my details into a book for a call back when the product came back in store and would sell it for the same price. 4 months later the product was on the shelf and for $65 "on sale" from $99.95. We didn't get a phone call or anything for 4+ months even though we went with no kettle and was told that we would have to pay current sale price for it. Waste of time for promises made by staff members who cannot deliver.

  • Sammi Ibnesso

Their return policy in this store is the worst we have ever experienced, they make you feel like its all your fault that the product broke down, they tell you all the conditions that avoids the warranty that was never ever mentioned before and they're very rude in the manner they do all this. Ironically another HS store refunded it no questions asked with a smile and an apology, which proves this store has serious issues in their policy, customer service and possibly they're racial profiling warranty claims which is shocking these days.

  • Haggisman Mclean

Shark Navigator Liftaway vacuum - HS price $440, Target Big W price $400 Heart shaped bohemia crystal box, HS price $60 discounted to $20. You can find it on the net (australian stores) for $35 discounted to $25. I bought an iron here at a 'Heavily' discounted price on to find later that Big W were selling the same iron at that same price normally. I'm not saying this applies to all HS merchandise but don't believe all the blurb about 60% off this and that. It may just be that it was 60% more expensive in the first place.

  • Sina Pishva

My wife and I bought a dinner set while it had 4 missing items with one cracked plate. Sadly, the receipt was in my pocket when my wife put my cloths in the laundry. On Christmas day we opened the box and found the issue. And we were so upset that our lovely dinner set that she loved it so much had 5 items missing. Thanks to LOVELY STAFF AT HARRIS SCARFE for recovering our receipt and replaced missing items. We really appreciated it and loved your customer service. SEE YOU DEFINITELY AGAIN SOOOON

  • Lee N

They won't accept returns on bedding due to hygiene reasons even if the item has not been taken out of the sealed packaging. Because thats what we all do, buy bedding, take it home, make the bed sleep in it for a few nights, take it all off and meticulously fold it all back into the plastic bags so it looks unused and take it back to the store for a replacement. I ended up going to another store and spending $200 on a quilt cover and sheets that doesn't have the same stupid policy with better customer support.

  • Alana Fitzgerald

Great prices however some of the rudest customer service Ive ever had. Wouldn't even call it service given that they did absolutely nothing to help even though the store was quiet. Made quite a large purchase and as the store doesn't have any trolleys I asked if I could quickly leave my things to run and get a trolley (this is after I had 3 staff members stare at me as I struggled to get to the counter). The girl rolled her eyes and gave me a very blunt 'no'. I work in retail and that's just not good enough.

  • Ian Anderson

If I could give this dump of a store a minus star I would...went there with the intention of buying some Mitch Dowed under pants (a bit under $12 a pair) main problem was I wanted XXlarge. In the entire range there was only 3 or 4 in that size. When we got to the check out we discovered that none of what we intended to purchase was under $12 (all being $18).Will never go there again...

  • Eay

Love shopping here, specially when they reduced their product pricing down. I usually spend hours to get the stuff that I wanted. They had quality products and easy to find things. The only downside of this shop is lack of chairs to sit when your trying some shoes. Would be nice to add even 1 chair in every isles. They allocated only 1 chair for these women shoes section.

  • NaRi Jin

I came here on 31 May around 4pm and the staff were both rude and unhelpful. One member was too busy talking to move out of the way from the entrance to the checkouts (while I was pushing a pram and holding items I wanted to buy) and the cashier was rude, took a phone call as I got to the desk and made the minimum effort possible.

  • Christine McKerrell

Easy to find in Westfield Chermside, near Best a Less. Has a large range of clothing, footwear, linen, electrical appliances, saucepans a frypans, crockery glassware and cutlery. Loved the crockery as it is different to what is found in other large stores . Good prices and friendly helpful service.. Would recommend a visit .

  • Samantha Butt

They take forever to answer the phone if they do at all and will put you on never ending hold. No one ever asks if they can help and always seem short staffed when shopping in store. If it wasn't for the wide variety of products I would never shop in there. I have been going in for years and it has not changed!!

  • aditya charegaonkar

No one was there to help and I did not get what I wanted and finally when I saw one staff, I showed him the product on phone, he said sorry we may not have it, you buy it online. He did not even bothered to check the stock at the store. They really don't care about customers and business they are getting.

  • cel stewart

Had a poor shopping experience. Staff were not very friendly and rush you through the tills even if nobody is behind you. Some staff members don't look at you whilst you ask them a question about products whilst they clean/pack things. Good products however the customer service is not good.

  • Rachel Dudok

Can I just say a thank you to the gentleman that worked there who saw I had clearly bought more than I could carry and went and got me a trolly. Very helpful staff and I always stop into HS when after any homewares and cookware because their prices are competitive and their rage is great.

  • Lee-Anne Clancy

Rude old woman behind counter... Just because you're having a bad day doesn't mean you need to bring your foul attitude to work & or be rude to people...!! Go get another job if your so unhappy & let someone who wants a job / needs a job that know how to be polite to people take yours...

  • Isht Deep

Worse worse customer service ever. There store manager doesn’t know how to handle the situations when u r asking abt exchanging some item. He should get some customer service lessons.There air fryers are faulty as. Will never ever go there again. So annoyed with there response. …

  • Matthew Brown

I can see why they went into administration and taken over. Similar experience to Myer... No customer service. If a customer is standing there waiting to pay, and three of you can't be stuffed, then quit. Let someone else who is keen to work take your job if you're too good for it.

  • Jay Donaldson

I don't mind paying a reasonable price for quality items, especially kitchen related but when an item is obviously heavily marked up its annoying. I know it's hard sourcing overseas manufactured goods but alternatives don't need to be 3 times the price. Somebody is gouging....

  • Si D

Overpriced. Purchased items that were damaged and not packed in the box appropriately after obviously being display items after being told they weren't. They refunded the item which was good. Suggest to anyone to to check the box before leaving the store.

  • The Realist

I had just moved into a new house and needed to get all the usual kitchen gear. I had had Harris Scarf recommended to me, so I thought I would have a look. The store has plenty of staff, unlike the usual variety stores. Their products were

  • Wayne Sentance

Never been in here before so went in on an adventure with no expectations. And pleased I did. Sells stuff you need at a price you'd be happy to pay. Was a bit like a step back in time to a department store like they used to be.

  • Soman Khan

Good place with a large variety of stuff. Staff is friendly and helping and it’s very convincing to access this place in mall. Mall itself is very big so you can get a lot of other stuff done while you’re at harris scarfe

  • William Beckett

Large department store selling everything from kitchenware to clothing. Frequently have sales with great discounts. I see this place as an alternative to places like DJ's and Myer. Just not as upscale clothing, etc.

  • G LANG

Just OK they seem to over priced now on clothing which it a pity and then to be told all specials are for members only disgusting what a con to get people to become members and also staff not very polite

  • David B

I had to return an item without a receipt. No problem they found the receipt from another store and gave me a store credit. I l o be how they used raised paper packaging to wrap China at the register.

  • Patsy Tracey

Well set out. Was able to find everything i needed. However 3 customers waiting to be served while a couple of employees were joking around between themselves behind the counter. Not a good look.

  • Naithan Williams

First time visiting this store. Located inside Westfield Chermside shopping centre. Not a bad store at all, very similar to TKMaxx, with some slight differences to stock and amount of stock.

  • Ruth Hatcher

Finally found what I wanted after scouring 8 shops! The lady in the bath mats and towels section was so helpful and even went out back to see if my colour was there. I am so grateful to her.

  • David Ward

Jack has been here. has Jack stayed with the new owners? Is everything always 50% off, week after week after week. Maybe Jack stayed or maybe everything is just the best value on the planet.

  • A B

A relatively small department store. Excellent quality sheets, good range of kitchen utensils and small appliances, well-priced quality underwear. A small range of outer clothes.

  • Rod Lee

They have a good variety of fashionable stock, but we could only find one long sleeve collared top suitable for my mother-in-law, & even then will have to add a higher button.

  • Noel Harbottle

Service was terrible. It was obvious the staff member serving us did not want to be there. Staff at cashier did not know what was discounted . Very poor shopping experience.

  • Samir Kumar Mishra

Not a huge collection of items but the price is good. There is always an element of risk in what you buy here but if you can find a good brand then they have the best price.

  • Julian Abrahams

No customer service at all, not even a greet but plenty staff in store and walking around. Store looks a bit bare and hardly any stock. Was in and out within 10 minutes.

  • Elizabeth Hansen

Hadn't been in this store for years. But was very surprised at the range of items that they carry. Only looked at Manchester items but well worth returning to see more

  • Private

Absolutely no idea about customer service. Argued with me. Don't understand the basic 1st year law study of the Innkeeper's Act. Lost years of loyalty in a flash!!

  • isaac trueman

I'd actually never heard of this store until I walked past it so I went in to have a look around and it seems alright will visited again when I'm in chermside next

  • Helen Myers

It's always nice to look around this store. Very clean, tidy, and well organised. There are always massive discounts on stock, but discounted to regular price.

  • John White

Located in at Westfield's Chermside this store has electrical, bedding, kitchen ware, footwear and lots of other great quality good at very affordable prices.

  • Scott

Not a bad store. Has some good products on offer. I'm always dubious about their % off signage as it never really changes but pricing isn't bad nevertheless.

  • Tayla N

Jack and Paola are incredible team members and assisted us so well when he had issues with our pots and pans that needed to be returned and replaced today.

  • LCM Property Solutions

Great clothes at an awesome price. Couldn't find anything I liked at Myer. Then remembered Harris Scarfe and came out with some lovely clothes. Very Happy

  • tracey Boyer

In this shop you can pick up all storts of different pieces at really good prices from bed linen to doonas, kitchen ware and clothes well worth a visit.

  • Ray Di Marco

Good range and great place to get name brands at a discount. If patient and wait can get good products at 50% off. Good for bed linen and kitchen ware.

  • DK

Its got everything it needs to be a great store, but while some of the staff are amazing and deserve 5 stars, there's a few really nasty staff members.
