What is the Sephora Class Action About?
A $1.7 Million Class Action Lawsuit against Sephora has been settled that affects Missouri Sephora customers. The lawsuit against Sephora alleged that Sephora customers ended up paying more state tax than they rightfully should have for products purchased either on the Sephora website, or remotely. According to the class action lawsuit, overpayment of sales tax occurred in situations where Sephora customers had products shipped from outside of Missouri. Sephora has outright denied the claims made by the class action lawsuit, but has settled to avoid continuing court and lawyer fees.Both Sephora and the lawyers filing the class action lawsuit have agreed to the settlement terms. However, the fact that there is an agreed-upon settlement does not mean that Sephora has accepted that they broke any laws, or violated any consumer rights.
