Examines the consumer behaviours which result when an apparel product fails and the situations of seeking, receiving, and satisfaction with redress, in relation to the consumer's intent to repurchase a brand and to revisit a store. Results indicate a definite relationship and have direct financial implications for retailers and apparel manufacturers.
The consumer behaviors that result when an apparel product fails and the situations of seeking, receiving, and satisfaction with redress, in relation to the consumer's intent to repurchase a brand and to revisit a store, were examined. A questionnaire was developed that contained 3 major sections: 1. instrumental performance information about the apparel item, 2. the postcomplaint process, and 3. repurchase behavior. Although a majority of consumers were satisfied with their apparel purchases, one out of 4 had purchased products that failed to provide satisfaction in instrumental performance criteria. Some 43% of the customers experiencing product failure sought redress from the retailer. No respondent sought redress from a manufacturer. Whether or not retailers provided redress to the customer was related to subjects' intentions to repurchase at the store, but not to intentions to repurchase the brand. The occurrence or absence was found to be associated with the customer's satisfaction with the store's redress.
