Do not buy body jewelry from Hot Topic!

I just want to second the other post about not buying Hot Topic body jewelry…I bought some “6g” pinchers and couldn’t get them in my ear; they were too big. I’d been stretched to 6g for months, so there shouldn’t have been a problem, unless of course they mislabeled their body jewelry. I tried to return/exchange them and they refused to take them back even though it was their fault for selling me “6g” pinchers that were actually larger than that!

  18. killjoykerosenequeen said: Yes I know that feeling; I went to piercing planet and when I was about 13 they told me to get double flared plugs and I did, when I couldn’t get them in they insisted it just needed a push, so I did, then they tried to con me into paying them to do it!

  21. evilrainbowcupcakes said: hot topic just has crappy jewelry/clothing in general. Their jewelry is made of low quality materials. I remember getting a couple necklaces from there and they made my neck green so I wouldn’t trust any of their body jewelry..
