If you bought a certain brand of sheets at Macy’s, you may be eligible to get money as part of a class action settlement about the products.
The lawsuit claimed the brand of sheets — CVC, which is also known as the Chief Value Cotton brand and manufactured by AQ Textiles — were mislabeled, defective or misrepresented. It alleged the thread count of the sheets was not as high as advertised so shoppers thought they were getting higher quality sheets than they received.
Macy’s did not respond to a request for comment. The settlement website said the company denied it violated any law or made any misrepresentation, but it agreed to settle the case to avoid litigation expenses.
People who purchased the sheets from a Macys.com or from a Macy’s store in the United States or Guam between Nov. 8, 2013 and March 24, 2023 may be eligible for part of the $10.5 million settlement.
The deadline to file a claim is Wednesday, April 17.
How much you could get will depend on what proof you can provide when you apply for the settlement.
Those who were identified in Macy’s records as making the purchase will receive $7.50 per unit of sheets purchased.
Those who can provide a receipt with proof of purchase will also receive $7.50.
If you don’t have a receipt, but you attest under penalty of perjury that you made the purchase, you may receive up to $2.50 per household — not per unit purchased.
All of those amounts could be lowered, though, after the payment of attorney’s fees and administrative expenses, the settlement website said.
You can submit a claim form online or download the needed forms, then mail them to: CVC Sheets Claims Administrator, 1650 Arch St, Ste 2210, Philadelphia, PA 19103.
