Hesitant to buy on-line blinds, I was immediately relieved when my hubby heard them advertised on 850 KOA. After that, we selected a few samples. Impressed with the seemingly quality of the samples we were compelled to put in the order. We took a real chance when we order 11 bamboo roman shades. The ordering process was very easy. The roman shades arrived in about 12 days (or so?), and they were well packaged and very easy to identify to the window. Mounting took mere minutes as soon as the first one was done, and the outcome was beautiful!

I will say. We did end up receiving only 9 of the 11, and when I reported it to Blindster via emailing customer support, my inquiry was replied to within one day but I was asked the silly question of whether I had opened all the boxes... uh, yea, I did, that's why I'm contacting you saying they are missing, right?... anyway, they immediately placed an order to have the two missing ones replaced which were received promptly.

It was about a month later that the UPS contacted Blindster to inform them they had found two boxes that belonged to us. Even though it was a moot point by then, the "extra" two were sent to us free of charge.

So overall it was a great, easy, and inexpensive option for covering our windows with stylish and high quality bamboo roman shades. I won't hesitate to use them again when we decide on the next windows to cover!

I have joined many online shopping rebate clubs and they all have their perks. This is the first one I have ever paid for. I wondered how long it would take me to earn back the monthly fee and decided that as long as I made more than I spent I would keep using it. I joined in September-ish of 2014 and even though it took me a few months to save a substantial amount of money, I can honestly say that this is the best rebate site I've ever joined, even with the monthly fee. The max you can "earn" per year on % rebates is like $1000. And the most you can claim for shipping refunds is like $500. I will certainly hit the $1000 maximum and will definetly claim almost $250 in shipping refunds. I've used the return shipping a handful of times and that is probably worth about $100 today. Then, with the price guarantee, I received a refund of almost $100.

So - for $156 a year membership, I have received this year alone about $1400 - $1500 in savings. It's work but it seems worth it to me!

My only complaint is that sometimes, I follow all the requirements for a rebate to a "t" and every so often it doesn't get recorded for a rebate. Trying to dispute it is a waste of time, they won't hear you at all and just send a form letter saying basically "sorry but you are SOL" That makes my blood boil. If another company offered the same program and had a better tracking system I would join it in a hearbeat.
