I spend very little on Levi's clothes. He doesn't wear them often, especially in the summer, but I try to stay under $10 for general items like shirts. The Target dollar bins are AWESOME, and we've also gotten some great deals on ebay. I'd maybe spend up to $20 if I found something I couldn't resist - but that would be a splurge, not an everyday occurence.

You know I just ordered from you yesterday and I think once before (?) and have to say you have a great on-line store. Not only were you having a great sale, your site is so easy to navigate, offers a wonderful variety of some of the best yorkie/dog items and your customer service is superb! Thanks!

Loved the new Oscar Newman items!

$10 for a shirt $20 for a coat

Poochieheaven · 08-26-2010, 07:18 PM

For those of you that would only spend a certain amount, would you opinion change if you knew it was a high quality product?

I find this topic interesting as a retailer because I carry very few shirts for $10 or coats/sweaters for $20 or less. The reason behind this is that I would rather carry higher quality products at a higher price point. If I was to sell shirts for $10 or coats/sweaters for $20 the quality would be extremely lacking. I have brought in a few items that would retail at that and I refused to sell it because I wouldn't even want my own dog to wear it.

Example- Chilly Dog sweaters. I have yet to find a dog sweater that is as thick as they are. Yes they are more expensive, but if someone is looking for a nice warm, thick dog sweater they are the first I tell them to buy. I wish I could have some Chilly dog sweaters for me to wear!

i like to dress my boys, most of the sweaters i make myself but i like the ralph lauren polos shaffer has one in every color i buy when they are on sale for 24ish i think, but i did buy him an hermes coat that i spent over 700.00 for, both my boys have a hermes collar and leash but i really really liked them, the quality is great and they match my birkins. i never saw a shirt in the target dollar bins but i have found some cute tshirts there. I often find the shirts dont always fit well to short to long they wet them, both my dogs have a chest of drawers full of clothes maybe i should stop but i just cant.

If it came down to a 3 pack of skivvies for me, or a Coat for Maxine, do I even have to say what my wife would buy? She has a closet full of cloths, but usually does not dress up except for special occasions. Can't find much to fit Carlo, but he has a Harley hat and cool shades.

I'll admit I am a bargain shopper and always look for a sale first. I do prefer quality and don't mind paying a little more for it though, if it's an item I really want. I have more of a tendency to buy girl clothes than boys...that's probably because I had sons, no daughters and guess I kind of always wanted a little girl to dress. So, I think with girls clothes I am willing to spend more per item than I do on the boys.

Btw....love Chilly Dog sweaters.....they are thick!

LOL...let's hope it doesn't come down to this, hate to think of you running around in old underwear!

Although, I'm sure I would understand your wife's way of thinking

i would buy only if i'm sure it's good quality, usually i have to physically see the stuff before i drop big bucks, for online shopping i prefer to buy products with more detailed photos. i usually don't shop at websites that put those nice looking photoshop pix

Me too. I have spent more but that is a rare occasion. Kaji's outfit box is overflowing now.

If I bought them outfits I would go for quality. I want something that's going to hold it's shape and color.
