“AVOID! terrible experience, money taken from account, but still not received order. Website is designed to make it difficult to contact them. I won’t bore you with the palaver I’ve had, just DO NOT ORDER FROM THEM.”

“I’d give it no stars if I could. Still haven’t received an order I placed 5 weeks ago. Very difficult to get in touch with customer services as when I log in it states I haven’t ordered anything- so unable to get in touch with customer services as you have to ‘get a ticket’ but unable to do so if you don’t have an order! Very frustrating! AVOID!”

“No passado dia 14 fiz uma encomenda de máscaras e foi me dito que foi enviado dois dias depois... Até agora a única coisa que saiu foi o dinheiro da minha conta. Nem acredito como cai neste embuste...o meu pedido senhor Fábio é o #36823413 e ainda está na Alemanha á espera de ser entregue a DHL...não comprem neste site. 3 a 7 dias úteis era a promessa...agora já nem consigo contatar através do site...e nem me aparece o meu pedido. Não fosse esta pandemia e necessidade de ter máscaras nunca teria caído nesta....”

“Absolutely DISGUSTING. I ordered something for my puppy two months ago. It never arrived and every time I send a 'not arrived, please refund' message I get a 'contact your post office or carrier' message. They take NO RESPONSIBILITY in ensuring you get what you ordered. Goodbye $40. OBVIOUSLY NEVER USING AGAIN!!”

“Ordered something and paid for expedited delivery, which was supposed to happen through DHL in under 5 working days. 23 days later (!!?!) the package shows as "returned to shipper" and no communication from the website to tell me that. Avoid at all cost. If it is not a fraud, it is VERY close to fraud. AVOID!”

“AFTER I ordered it gave an ammended and extended shipping time. the tracking # is useless or fake. Why would it take the postal service almost a month to get a parcel from LA to the bay area....it still hasn't come. It seems to be a front for selling cheap chinese junk.”

After waiting almost a month my order was not sent, several emails were sent to the company to resolve the issue yet with there poor customer service skills nothing was resolved. My order was cancelled and a request for a refund was sent via Paypal. STAY CLEAR of this company...”

“DO NOT ORDER FROM THIS COMPANY. I placed an order on their website and after the fact I looked at the company’s reviews. I should of looked first. So then I decided to cancel my order. Once canceled they credit you back on the website account you created. Not to your original payment method. Then you have to withdraw it from the website. I received an email that I would see the credit with in two business days. 18 days later still no credit. I tried contacting the company but since my order was canceled I could not email them. Then I tried replying to the original emails from when I canceled my order and they were all sent back to me. This company should not be allowed to sell in the US. Very poor business practices. I went on to dispute this charge on my credit card. DO NOT ORDER FROM THIS COMPANY!!”

“I ORDERED IN-STOCK ITEMS. SUPPOSED TO BE HERE OR AT LEAST IN THE BOX IN 4-7 days. I am now on day 14 and got some lame generic response to my ticket complaint. They surely don't send out "many emails" as they claim. I got one saying they took my money. Then the generic response to my complaint.”

“Oh, don’t get me started. It started with a beautiful website/ads, beautiful pictures of dresses, and I needed a dress for my brother’s wedding. Prices were low enough, and I said, better to have something in hand, and made an order. A few hours after the order, I have realized the shipping will never be in time for the event, so I asked to cancel my few hours old order. It wasn’t clear how it’s done - I have written “contact us” and asked to cancel, and only in 2nd attempt found a cancellation option, so I have stated there too I want to cancel. I was not sure where they are shipping from: it appeared to be a nice website and app, but once you need something from them, they do not exist. They are listed in China, in the UK and in the USA, and I was not sure where does their costumer service sits, but I assumed that they make the clothes in China. So from that perspective, my order and the quick cancellation that followed were in the Chinese New Year. I knew no one is actually working on these dates, and no one had actually received my invite. It was a loooong back-and-forth game. At the beginning, I didn’t know if my cancellation request was received: my order had disappeared from “my orders”, but the billing was well stated on the following payment of my credit card. I have called my VISA and told them I can’t find the company, they won’t reply. The internet does not mention anything about a real company, and the invitation does not exist anymore, so what about the payment. The VISA guy told me that if they had cancelled it, it should take me 2 weeks to see (I preferred it won’t be redacted from my account at the first place, because there is no dress coming in the mail). So at last the service reacted, and it was an agony, 2-3 weeks of writing back and forth (“CANCEL MY ORDER PLEASE!!” -“what? We didn’t hear you. Did you mean cancel? We are waiting for your final decision”. -“YES, CANCEL PLEASE!” -“what? We didn’t hear you, did you mean to cancel? We are waiting for your final decision”. So they were procrastinating for 2-3 weeks like that, and at the end said “I could get a voucher for future purchases”. I will NEVER turn to this website again. EVER. It has a nice front, but no one to vouch for your money or to give you service behind it. They just stole my money as far as I am concerned. Never seen anything from them, just an exceptionally bad, bad (it’s not even a service). It also teaches not to buy from “websites” that are not well known in service, delivery and quality of products, because when you need them, they are not there. Only after that have I discovered how many bad reviews they have - including from people that DID receive something from them. Apparently they have the worst service in the world. And they have stole my money.”

“The worst online website I’ve ever ordered from. I ordered one (1) item.. somehow the website created four (4) tickets and charged me three (3) times! I cancelled all items. They still shipped one (1) item !!! A day later!!!and told me it’s to late to cancel. I even have the email they sent showing I cancelled and I should be getting a refund. Never order again now I have to see how to get my money back.”

“Originally ordered 2 cycling jerseys in November 2019. After admitting in FEBRUARY that the items were "missing", they supposedly reordered. February 14, I received an update, saying the items had again left their warehouse and I would get a discount on my next order. Now, April 27, still nothing and no real way of contacting them, since they now have removed my order history. 5 months and counting. At this point, all I can do is wait and hope.”
