I ordered 4 charcoal gray t shirts 2 women's M and 2 men M "class of 2020" the class with perfect vision.
I thought the color would be easy and neutral. The blue text on the online image seems to show up well. In reality it does not. Too bad a lighter color of text is not an option to use on darker colored shirts. I felt a need to get my 4 gifts mailed and I did not feel it worth mailing back original order and ordering new colors. So to say the least I am very disappointed and felt I had to send a note along with gift to the grads hoping that the shirts fade a bit so they could read the print :( :( :( :(.
At the $65 price each, I thought I would be receiving a couple really nice shower curtains. One came very blurry and pixelated. The other less blurry but you can see text imposed on it. Actual letters! Hello, quality control, anyone there?!?! I'll be watching my bank account too, given some of these reviews. I should have skipped this site.
I bought masks for virus protection and they sent me this brooch! They are making jokes with me in a moment like this!
Ordered some shirts and ibthought it would get severely delayed due to the pandemic. My just arrived yesterday. Quality is great too.
I placed my order on 2/11 and payed for expedited shipping so it would arrive on 2/14. It is now 2/28 and I have still not recieved my package. 3 day shipping? More like 30 day shipping! I am starting to doubt this was a legitimate purchase.
I wish i read the reviews prior to ordering. My order did not arrive as expected and i am still waiting. I ordered the doodle pajamas for a party and my party is in a few days. Praying i get it in time because it is to late to order from another company that has reputable reviews :(
My husband ordered me this rug for my christmas present, said a 4x6 rug, it did not clearly state that the image does not match the measurements of the rug, and it's so cheaply made and thin, for $100 me and my husband are very upset. Just filed for a refund from them, hope to God we get it, but with all the other reviews I'm nervous we wont
I bought a rug from them, thinking it would be a normal rug, its not its a throw rug that you cant even walk over without messing it up and its cheap meaning its just printed on kind of thick material. Man I got duped its always hit or miss with online shopping I guess. I should of read the reviews first. It was pretty pricey too 150.00 for a 5x7 rug.
I sent a picture to put on two T-shirts one for my brother and one for my nephew. It was a picture of my father now deceased along with a good family friend and Willie Nelson. A picture I had taken. Willie's shirt said bastard sons of God Johnny Cash on it. Café press refused to print it saying that it violated copyright law. They initially said that was because it was being used for a commercial purposes. They then changed Their tune when I pointed out that was not the case. They continued without citation to anything to claim copy right infringement on the picture that I myself took of a public figure and two close family friends. They pointed to nothing to support their claim. I got it printed elsewhere no problem. See no reason to use them again or to be bothered by their changing stories
I ordered two t-shirts with logos on them. I ordered them early to give as a gift to my son before he went overseas and it was almost $9 to ship. They didn't arrive until two days after he left when they were supposed to be delivered two days prior to his departure. This was back in mid August.
I shipped they to him overseas an additional cost. He was very appreciative but said that the logos are already washing off. I've tried contacting CP but nothing. They suck.
I order a shirt September 18 and was told I would receive it September 30. As of October 7 I still don't have it. I've called 3 times and been told it's "in production" but they would "expedite" the order. I finally asked to s peak to a supervisor but she is "not available". Terrible customer service.
Ordered an item for a friends birthday on 18th September and here I am still waiting and it's the 5th October. I should of checked reviews and also where they are based, as I certainly would not of ordered.
Misleading being named cafepressuk when they are based in USA
So, I bought a shirt for my husband... Made 3 attempts to get help starting a return and no response at all. I do not recommend unless you like being stuck with stuff you don't want or cannot use. Order #*******
Purchased a shirt for daughters birthday... it came and didn't fit well, the material was also very thick and uncomfortable. Sent message regarding return instructions... they replied they would get back to me in 24-48 hours, and that was almost 2 weeks ago! Sent a second message as well... still no word from them! Ridiculous!
So I was looking for another Patch to add to my Bag, and I found (from what I saw from the site.) a great looking Iron-on Wendigo Patch (4 x 2). Since it was only a Patch, it only took about three days to get to my house. (Three because of Sunday.) I get it and one thing is right, and two things are off.
One, It's clearly not Iron-on. And two, It's the patch of the full picture, not the one that was displayed from the Store. Keep in mind, the only reason I bought it is because of the Store Picture.
Overall, I will say the Picture is great, and the Measurements are correct, and the delivery time was good. Though it's a bit thin to be a Patch. So I'd recommend not getting patches from Cafe Press.
Said it was made with hardwood, came in as a plastic box with a tile picture. Not what I expected! The shipping, however was pretty quick.
Their customer service rivals Comcast. I ordered 2 shirts, and after having an issue with a coupon that said "take an additional 30% off" that couldn't be honored, they finally took care of the issue. Then, after waiting 2 weeks, i was informed by USPS that they put the wrong shopping label on my package and it was given to someone else. This was a birthday gift! I tried to call but the gatekeeper Samantha, wouldn't allow me to speak to a manager and just issued me a refund. DON'T ORDER FROM THESE PEOPLE!
I order 12 latte mugs and received them in a timely manner and just how I had ordered them. No complaints on quality or service. BUT -- and a huge BUT -- each arrived in an individual coffin of thick styrofoam. 12 mugs took up a very large box. Granted, each was in PERFECT condition, but I now have TWO huge garbage bags of styrofoam to throw into a landfill. Ugh. And seriously, in this day and age, who does this? Very very disappointed with this company.
Over three weeks wait for a delivery and still not arrived! Customer care zero - will not respond to e-mails and I'm out of pocket £52. Gifts ordered for 18'th birthday present - what a disappointment. Dispute now raised against merchant would like to give no stars but unfortunately cannot.
My boyfriend purchased a printed necklace for me for my birthday and he was immediately upset when he opened the package to see a cheap, off center and grainy picture on metal that looks like it came out of one of those 50 cent gumball machines. He actually threw it in the garbage. When he told me what he spent including faster shipping and that all sales were final I was just as furious because I've legit seen nicer jewelry at the dollar store. Please, if you're expecting to gift something personal with decent quality for someone you love, there are so many other more LEGIT customized websites out there.
Answer: I believe the company did a great job on growth and promoting the "little guy" and November 2013 they changed policies, changed production, changed items and product quality and reduced shop owners commissions on their way to becoming greedy. They made the company a public traded entity on the stock market and was out for themselves. They got rich, the stocks fell, the products became of poor quality, and August of 2014 the president, CEO bailed out and left. To regroup they have tried to add companies like Marvel Comics, Snoopy and other big names to keep the losses from poring in, instead of supervising quality and buying a better quality product. If you want to see their spread sheet of losses, and their news headlines since please feel free.
