We are NOT a con. We really do not need to risk our reputation over a single order. Nevertheless, we respect your opinion. It will be nice if you can respect the opinions of other reviewers too because it is not fair to accuse other honest reviewers of being liars.

I recieved 2 of my 3 items. They were unusable and didn't resemble the pictures. Very poorly made. If you saw these items before you bought them you wouldn't. I've asked for a refund of the 3rd item and they haven't responded. Buy at own risk.

I ordered, several items. $143.00 worth of garbage. I received clothes that smelled really bad... some had a mold smell some had indescribable odor. Size XL would maybe fit a 8 year old child. Quality is the worst I have ever seen, some made with material that isn't clothing material. Disposable clothing... some not seen correctly, loose threads hanging, raw seams. This business should be closed permanently. After researching which I should have done before I purchased... this company has many alias names. Beware! If you like spending your money on useless garbage order from these scammers. Thankfully I paid through PayPal and will receive a full refund!

OF COURSE ITS A SCAM!, READ THE REVIEWS!, IF YOUR STILL UNSURE THEN TAKE A CHANCE, BUT DON'T EXPECT ANYTHING AND NO COMPLAINTS WHEN YOUR RIPPED OFF, if one person says beware, ignore it, if two people say the same thing, think about it, if three or more say it, believe them, not everyone can be wrong!. And thousands of people are saying this company stole from them, and your still thinking of buying from them? Why? K

NEVER EVER EVER EVER EVER order from ROSEGAL... BAD QUALITY, BAD CUSTOMER SERVICE (THEY IGNORE YOU) and most likely your order will be full of incorrect / missing items... or never received. Trying to contact them for a resolution is a NIGHTMARE! ROSEGAL IS A SHAM AND SHOULD BE SHUT DOWN! WASTE OF MONEY! DON'T DO IT!

Send your money if you want. It will takes weeks. The items will look cheap and not like the pictures. You can't get a refund and you'll have to pay to ship items back. If that's what you want for your money go ahead. Thousands of negative comments can't all be right... or can they?

The clothes are poorly made & put together quickly, threads hanging, no labels, & they don't fit a human body, none of the items make sense. The clothes are just put together per order - the cardigans I ordered are unfinished & the colours are awful
Also you will notice their website does not contain SHARING icons so the page can't be shared. They already know they are scum bags so I didn't bother venting. My lesson learned

Really? Heather H.? You must work for the company! Clearly you are one out of 2 who liked what you received from this company... there is no shopping option... there is no term and condition stating my orered is going to take 2 months to arrive... yet they will take your money the second you place your order... I would have loved to have read somewhere on their site that their clothing was going to smell like chemicals and have holes in it and possibly never arrive... or arrived so small so if you are a size 8 you better order a size 18... Gee I don't think I read that when I ordered my piece of garbage from this company... yet THEY WERE QUICK TO TAKE MY MONEY - and only under several threats did they finally refund me!... Scam? It's not a scam... it's a despicable, disgraceful company!

TRULY?... just look at the reviews on here... in my experience it certainly was. One item never did arrive and the other two although well made were do small they would have fitted a small child (I ordered large) yours not get through to the customer service department after you have purchased. A problem that everyone has had... thank God I paid by PayPal. I put in a complaint they escalated a claim and Rosegal just refunded straight away no email no apology... I've used the Internet for many years this has to be the most dodgy site I have come across o. M only cross with myself I got sucked in by the great pictures!

I had a bad experience, but finally they refunded my money, after insisting. They wanted me to cash points. But the problem is not as I was not happy with the product for quality or measurement. They gave me a completely other product, other color, other shape etc. so I wanted money refund. And they do after insisting.

Because they have ripped all of us off! My story: I placed my order, they took my money, never shipped my items, ignored me, lied, gave me the run around when I questioned and complained, then they blocked me from their sites. I reported them to my states District Attorneys Office for international cyber fraud, showed them proof that I reported them and then 4/5 months later I got a refund. Go check out "Rosegal is scam" on Facebook, here and many other sites for thousands of other womens story's of fraud by them.

Other than these reviews, their product pictures are inconsistent, they're stationed outside the country, and their serial numbers and ID numbers are different from every other site. Don't do it... I got what I thought would be a dress that is impossible to mess up but I guess even the simplest things can be crappy

It's not really a scam... it's just a terrible terrible terrible company that produces really cheap poorly made clothing and they ship from China so it takes forever to get the merchandise and you will NOT get a refund for anything you want to return. I ordered three romper and they all "looked" like the pictures but the materials were cheap and practically see-through, measurements were all wrong, and overal very poor quality. I mean for $10 I don't kno what I expected but I learned my lesson. Order from them if you want to, but just remember, YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR.

It's a classic case of, you get what you pay for... and sometimes you get something that is not like the picture. It's cheap material, they don't gaur enter their product. Their return policy might as well say "Go f*** yourself." I wouldn't say scam, but they are unethical and provide poor product.

I got my items 2 and 3 months after ordering them. They were nothing like they looked online or as described. They were cheap, practically plastic. The winter coat was basically two thin layers of nylon sewed together with no insulation. And, they were about 3 sizes too small, even though my daughter used the size guide on their website. It took me another month to get someone to tell me their address for return. Finally got one from the admin of their Facebook page. It cost me $33 to return the $85 worth of product back to them. It's been a month. I've heard nothing! They are ripping people off by sending them inferior products from China. Don't waste your time or money. Read any of the reviews.

I ordered 4 items. Every item was at least 3 inches smaller in length, arm length, bust size. In order to get a refund, you have to measure everything and take pictures with the tapee measure to prove the size discrepancy. They only refunded for two of the three items I received, and I have yet to receive the third.

I agree that even if the items were sized correctly, they are very cheaply made. Don't do it!

This company is a scam and I don't believe anyone should order from them. Since I have ordered and refused the order I believe I have gotten my credit smeared and have been FRAUDED. I have gotten many fraud alerts in the last several months and the latest is that someone is trying to get other credit in my name. This might not be Rosegal but it is too coincidental. I tell EVERYONE I know not to order on line unless you know the company is good. If you need to send something back you will have to pay and you will pay around $30 to $60. Pay a little more and go through an American company or Amazon or one of the local big box stores. If you have to send stuff back there is usually NO Problem. Good luck with your future of on line purchasing if you don't want to believe the other people that give this HORRIBLE company a 1 than Good Luck.

Not a scam per say. But though the products you are ordering are cheap. You get even cheaper made items. Unwearable! I ld not be seen in the cheaply made items that were sent to me. They do not even resemble the pictures on line. But, in light of all of the horrible reviews, I cannot even believe you are flirting with the idea of ordering from them. But, its your money.

Honestly, I spent 60$ on 4 sweaters. It said right when I ordered them they would be shipped within 3 days. I received all 4 sweaters in a quart size plastic bag over 2 months later and they looked nothing like the pictures. I think they take the orders and have someone hand make them with the cheapest materials. You should see the tags on these things. They are not legitimate!

They will take your money and your items will look like they came from a swap meet. My waterfall coat was thin polyester and frayed at the ends. I just gave it to Goodwill. I purchased a real waterfall coat from Nordstoms. Read my review and see how long it took me to get a refund. I wouldn't buy anything from them if you like having your coins.

That's my own opinion, based on my own experience. It them three months to deliver my items, which for the most part were unusable. They should not target any other market other than the Asian. I wear nothing close to extra large, but that is the size I ordered. When I tell you NOTHING fits. I gave the items to my little family member. By the way, I only received my order after I complained on this site. SITEJABBER you rock!

My shipment was mislabelled and returned to the shipping company. When dealing with Rosegal, they had said I needed to pay them money immediately or my shipment would be destroyed. I then went to the shipping company directly and they said 1 they would never destroy a package and 2 they would ship it to me for free... Rosegal tried to rip me off.

It took me multiple follow-up, opening tickets that would get closed and 3-4 months and still no sign of my order arriving. First of all who does the business without Phone Support customer service or follow-up. My account was even deactivated so I was not able to post any questions. If Rosegal is doing some changes then the only credit goes to SITE JABBER and other sites as people started exposing their poor and non considerate service. After I posted my remarks, I received a follow-up right away stating that they will refund and give me the free gift if I update my feedback on their service. Showing nice pictures and not delivering or delivering bad is like cheating people trust. In today's world where we rely so much on online shopping, its very unfair to receive this kind of treatment..

If the reviews aren't enough to make you skeptical, then go ahead and order. If I had read the reviews beforehand, I never would have ordered. The product I got came in 2 sizes smaller than the size chart said it would... even using centimeters and knowing they're asian sizes. I paid for priority shipping and a special tracking number, it gave me a tracking number it said didn't exist and when I asked the customer service what happened, they said I paid for standard, no tracking shipping. When I got the product 10 days later than standard day shipping, I contacted them to return and they basically told me there was no point. The product was nothing like it was in the picture and in it was so cheap. The fabric wasn't what it said on the website and it already had a hole in it.

I have over a dozen orders and more than 30 items received just fine. How is that a scam? I find that nearly every complaint is because complainers do not seem to read and understand the terms and conditions, don't place the order with the best shopping option, don't double check the the sizing ( provided by the inch)! Which is clearly provided for each individual item, don't read individual product reviews from the customers etc This is a successful international site. I love it. Just order one thing but for heavens sake, read the information they supply you. Cheers
