This review was chosen algorithmically as the most valued customer feedback.

I work at a state agency, and every year these rip-off artists set up shop on campus and take advantage of our lowest paid employees. I didn't know about them until I went and started seeing the outrageous prices for items I already owned. In some cases the markups were 300%! Then I noticed that those waiting in line to pay we're all, in this case, minorities who were in lower paid jobs, and the least educated (housekeepers, groundskeepers, etc. I work in HR so I knew who they were.). I made a comment to the coworker with me, and the Luther saleswoman started yelling at me (I was essentially outing them as taking advantage of these employees). Afterward, I wrote a letter to the employee who coordinates vendors on campus, in which I said I couldn't believe our agency allowed these thieves on campus. While I do understand that many folks have no way to pay outright for an item, I also wonder why they don't do layaway at Walmart. The advantage is that Luther sales does payroll deduction. For them to advertise as a "discount" company is wrong. They are anything but a good deal. PLEASE look at all other options before resorting to Luther sales. By the way, whenever I see a positive review for them, I immediately suspect that the writer is a Luther sales employee.

I worked there. I know the company morale first hand and it’s not pretty. They really are predators. The owners and upper management are all racist (they call their customers “back of the house workers” and “bottom feeders) AND they’re sexist.

If you’re a consumer interested in dealing with this company, look elsewhere. They need to be shut down.
