Been here before, like the selections and fast service.
Spoke with a Belk employee about my feelings about the store. She informed me Belk is in the process of returning to much of the many things that made them a great store in years past. She said the stores will look like the original stores in many ways such as re-introducing many national brands names and labels. If this turns out to be true I for one will give them another chance. The Belk Name is iconic and needs continue serving the public. Let's keep our fingers crossed they make the improvements and bring the store back to where it belongs.
Tip for consumers:
Watch for changes and give them a chance if the rumors are true.

As an avid shopper of Belk for many years, it's sad to see the decline in product inventory as they move to strengthen their in-house labels all made from terrible Chinese companies. The labels they now "price and feature" are of poor quality. This didn't occur over night but has been in progress the past 5-8 years. Granted, most American Brands are made in China. However, many of them choose to use higher quality cottons and blends whereas Belk goes for the lower quality, lower priced substitutes. The pricing scheme is also ridiculous. They advertise "60% Off Specials" nearly every day. And they even have merchandise 80% off. However, check the brands and the quality and you'll find something marked at 80% off should have been price at that figure. Apparently they have staffing issues due to lower wages paid. Its simply not the Belk of 10 years ago and I'm sad to call it quits shopping there. Even Amazon brands are of higher quality. However, they do have bargains in ladies shoes. Most are cheap enough to wear for 3 months then toss them. My advice, if your looking for temporary clothing, shop Belk. You'll have a maximum of 45 days before it begins to fade, come apart and begin looking like it's 10 years old.
Tip for consumers:
Don't be shy, let the world know how our stores are doing as they try to cut back and raise prices.
