About
Sayles Retail, previously known as Oro Gold, is a UK-based luxury beauty chain. The company is currently newsworthy due to allegations of high-pressure and deceptive sales tactics employed by its Hong Kong distributor. These practices have led to significant customer complaints, with some purchases reportedly reaching up to HK$100,000 (US$12,800). Hong Kong customs has expanded its investigation into the matter. Opatra London, which appears to be associated with Sayles Retail, has publicly distanced itself from the Hong Kong firm, expressing regret over any distressing customer experiences while emphasizing that the local branch's actions do not reflect the brand's values. The situation highlights concerns about aggressive sales strategies within the beauty retail sector and their impact on consumers.
