I wanted to buy some clothes that I saw on sammydress website. So, I went through reading a lot of reviews of the company. I am amazed as to why about 95% of the reviews are so negative. Horrible things about sammydress were said in those reviews.
Is sammydress this bad?

They are WORSE than this bad! Do yourself a favor and don't consider doing any purchasing from them. Trust me, you will be saving yourself a major headache. The quality is terrible and there isn't any customer service if you need it. You can't get through to their lines and you can't email them because their mailbox is always full. The only way I got my matter resolved was I used PayPal and they refunded me. Sammydress offered to pay me about $4.00 to release the complaint from PayPal, but I refused to do that. It was a fraction of what I spent, talk about nerve! They use pictures of items from Nationally known brands and it's not what they ship you. Old saying "if it's too good to be true..." DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME OR YOUR MONEY!

I would really try to find your stuff somewhere else if I were you unless you enjoy your merchandise not showing up or not getting shipped at all if you don't give them all your personal info you should never give out and them keeping your money until you have to fight to get it back. Thank goodness I paid through paypal with my credit card company and was able to get a refund. I will never do business with them again. My suggestion... buy American made!

Honestly I guess it's a hit or miss. However my experience with them is horrible. I'm still waiting for my items from August and their solution is for me to pay 50% of the order so they can resend it. I don't know on what planet that would make sense. I think if they had a better way to handle missing items it wouldn't be bad. I've ordered from places like this on Amazon and it's handled waaayyyy better. Sammy customer service is horrible. Oh and they stated they can refund me however I need to pay for that too!

Yes... sadly. I do like the looks of the clothes but there is absolutely no way of reaching anyone with this company once you have placed an order. If you try email, it will tell you over and over that you must use a VALID email address. I know my email by heart and I know I entered it correctly several times and yet the same pop up as soon as you hit send... use a valid email. Then if you call the company it's MAILBOX IS FULL if your lucky enough to get through. I personally believe Facebook should block SammyDress from advertising. Facebook I'm sure can read the reviews but they allow this behavior from people and companies to continue. I wouldn't waste your time or money on SammyDress products.

Ok, I assure you, I ordered three times (what a fool)... one item, a large with fit me, (a small - medium American), the next item, a Large will be too small, the next, too big. Tracking numbers have NEVER worked, it's a crap shoot if and when the items will come. I tried to leave a negative review on a skirt on their own website was so dramatically unlike the representative Photo that I wanted to warn people, but the review never did show up... only the positive ones did. The stuff is cheap knockoffs so the photos are very misleading, never the same material, drape, etc. I never did receive my last order, no response to emails, you can't call them, nothing. Now, there is another website that I SWEAR is the same people, looks almost identical, and I expect they will transfer over to that one and start over. Stay away and do not trust any positive review, there is no way someone could claim that it is just difference between US and Asian sizing, not when you order multiple items in one order and each one fits differently.

Yes, yes it is. They 'sell' items on their website that they don't have in stock but take your money anyway then 5 weeks later, when you expect your item to arrive and you contact them about it they tell you it is not in stock. Effectively they take your money and don't send you any product. Through much work on your part you are able to get you money back, but it's a lot of work.

I'm wondering why so many people are having a negative experience with this company but I'm not? I probably made about 5 orders with them this year. Not all of the clothes that I ordered were great quality, but I can't really complain because the prices were so low. For everyone complaining about the clothes being small, you have to actually look at the sizing chart for the clothes and compare to your own measurements, don't just judge based on "small, medium, large". Order a size bigger if you have to. I always pay for the fastest shipping option and get my package in about 2 weeks. Again, how come so many people are having issues?

I like it, but you gotta keep in mind that the material isn't the best quality, sizing is off sometimes, and unless you pay for express shipping it'll take at least a month to receive. What I do like about it is they post lots of pictures of customers in the clothes. And always check the reviews of the item you're planning to purchase.

I'm so surprised at how many people have had bad experiences with Sammy Dress; I've had a positive experience. I've ordered twice and love the dresses I ordered! I followed the size charts (a must for every single items as they all size different) and have not been disappointed. If you do order make sure to pay for the tracking, but also Wish is a great app and they do deliver faster than SammyDress.

First of all, the folks who post positive reviews are not all fakes. They are real. I used to be crazy about Sammydress & defend them on sites like this. But as of late they have let me down, To begin with, I have placed over 10 orders in the last year and the quality of the products has been exceptionally good. I ALWAYS get compliments from co-workers, family, and friends about an item I am wearing from Sammydress. I use the size chart they provide & compare that with my body measurements to determine what size, and have only had 1 instance where the item didn't fit. I have found that paying standard shipping usually means a 2 month wait. However, lately when I have paid for expedited shipping, I have had to wait longer because the item is not in stock. That's not fair. On my last order in September, I received it in 3 weeks, which I feel is too long for expedited shipping, and 2 of the items (same item, different sizes) were the wrong color. I ordered purple, but got pink! However, I cannot complain about the quality of ANY of the items I have ordered: Wigs, watches, jewelry, dresses, tops, bathing suits, outerwear, all top notch. But VERY disappointed with customer service for not responding to my ticket inquiry from 2 weeks ago. This makes me very skeptical about ordering from them again. In my case, Sammydress may have lost a loyal customer. Based on my recent experiences, I would advise you not to order from them and spare yourself a lot of disappointment & frustration.

Issac,
Need I say more or anything than what others have said? This company should not be in business. No customer service, only one lady's voice that comes on when you try to call and she sounds like an individual phone rather than a business phone. They take your money and don't deliver or will deliver a worst product. They will first tell you that they are putting your order on hold for verification and you need to send them your driver license, billing address, copy of the card used and when you do all of that, they turn around and cancel your order. They are bad, worst and no body should order from them. Save yourself issues and shop elsewhere

I have multiple garments from sammy including 3 pairs of shoes. Some items fit, some did not. Some were sewn better than others. Overall the price matched the quality. If it ships in 3 days that means the item is in stock. If not, it's not available don't order. Expidited shipping is higher but you will receive items in timely manner. Any other shipping method won't work out. Always go a size up, look at the size chart. A lot of items also have reviews so take a look before you consider.

It's so bad that beaware of any positive reviews!

I ordered two bathing suits and spent $10 extra dollars to have it shipped to me within 10 days. Not only did they not ship it to me within 10 days, but when my shipment finally did arrive several weeks later, the suits were too small and the material was very thin. So therefore, I had to throw them away. And yes, I did use their sizing chart before I had selected my size and ordered them. And because customer service is nonexistent, I wasn't even able to get my $10 shipment fee refunded back to me. I didn't even go there with quality issues. I was just super excited that I didn't give them more than $50 of my money. I am looking forward to the day that they screw themselves, because I believe what comes around goes around!

All I can say is that unless you have to deal with their customer service, you haven't experienced their quality of care, or lack thereof. If you've received everything you ordered in a timely manner with no problems... good for you... but once you have a problem, they do NOT want to help or refund. In fact, when they discovered (after 60+ days) that my item had been lost (on the boat I suppose), they refused to reimburse me and they wanted me to pay 50% of the order and the shipping - again- to send the a replacement. Isn't that a scam? Don't think an American company would treat their customer like this. I'm done with ordering from overseas.

It's a company from China. They send whatever size they have in stock, regardless what you have ordered.
The material is very poor and seems like these coming from rejected leftover. Most likely they will not send complete order at once. It's next to impossible to get refund. If you want to return items, you will have to ship it to China, which will cost at least $60. And even after that there is no guarantee that they will refund you. As per their website policy, their sales are non returnable, which I didn't know before. POSITIVE REVIEWS seems FAKE AND SEEMS LIKE COMING FROM COMPANY'S OWN PEOPLE.

All the good reviews are not posted by them. I wrote a good review & I am not officiated with Sammydress.
A couple of things to remember if & when ordering from them:
1. Always size up 2 sizes. Their clothes are Asian sizing which is smaller than American sizing.
2. Read the reviews for the items that you want to buy. Just scroll down to the bottom of the page & reviews a lot with pictures from real customers will be posted.
3. Order expedited shipping not flat or standard. A lot of times expedited is cheaper than standard. I ordered expedited & received my order in 5 days! Another time I accidentally hit standard & it took 3 weeks

The quality is not top notch, but you are also paying a fraction of the cost for most things. The biggest issue people have is the sizing and shipping.

The sizing is based on Asian sizes, so you should refer to the size chart for proper sizing. Generally you go a size to two bigger.

The shipping will likely take about a month unless you pay for faster service. The items are coming across seas so that shouldn't be surprising if you are aware and reasonable about your expectations.

Everything I have purchased I have been happy with. Some things are of course better than others. Don't expect top of the line products and be reasonable about your expectations. That's my best advice I can give. Hope this helps.
