Very happy with the terms and delivery system of this store! The products are well packed and smoothly delivered.
This company's motto must be that the customer is always wrong. From unreasonable order processing times (items in stock not shipping out for 3 weeks; backordered items with an estimation of 1-3 weeks taking 7 (yes SEVEN) weeks to arrive, to promised free gift promotions that were ignored because of the amount of time it took for THEM to process and ship an order (I'm talking an $85 free gift here that I got screwed out of because they claim it's "while supplies last" which to me is borderline fraud and false advertising at the very least - The item was even included in my emailed receipt but their records "do not indicate that it applied to my order." Total BS. Their website also only apparently works from a desk top or with Google chrome, so as an Apple user I was told I was SOL if I wanted to be able to log in unless I downloaded a browser I didnt even have. I was also signed up for an auto ship subscription that I did not actually sign up for and that didn't even show up in my accounts subscription section until the last minute when they tried to Bill me the $150 for it. Luckily I had removed my card on file before that happened, and then magically there it was, showing up in my subscription and pending order section. Guess I should have been using chrome all along. Oh and speaking of billing, if you order something and it takes them 3 weeks to ship it, the charge will authorize in your account and then disappear and then suddenly reappear (3 weeks later) without warning. Not even an email to let me know I was being charged $167 the week before Christmas. Awesome. Their way of dealing with you to shut you up is to offer you points towards future purchases, which only lead to further headaches in my experience. I have never complained to a company or about a company like this in my life. But it has legitimately been one thing after another and I am disgusted. Especially with how much money they must be raking in. Shame on them all. Everything about this company sucks. Order from them if you want ridiculous processing times (which they will then blame on usps, which doesn't even make sense since it takes them so much time just to process and fulfill an order, and if you then have an issue, heaven help you. Because customer service won't.
I spend thousands a year on skincare. I was excited to find dermstore and earn rewards but they cancelled my last four orders with zero explanation. So frustrating. I will never order from them again.
This business is irresponsible. I ordered two items got a confirmation number was waiting for the order but it never arrived. Checked with their customer service who couldn't care less and was told that it did not get shipped because the items were in back order and nobody cared to notify me. The next day I checked and the whole order was canceled, again nobody notified. Awful service!
I placed an order on November 26- it is December 29 and my order is not even close to being here! After multiple attempts of contacting customer service- all you get is that if you ever will receive the order then you can return it! After 2 months of waiting, I don't need it anymore but you can not return anything because the order is past 30 days! Never again Dermstore!
Beware of this merchant. They take your money and stall on delivery. Lost me first package. Made me wait extended time before they reshipped. Then promised me 2 day shipping for the inconvenience, that was a week ago. This business sucks!
Do not trust this store. They sent me fake face wash. Not even close to the color and consistency of the bottle I bought from my dermatologist office. The smell was also unbearable.
Ordered over 15 days ago. Still no notification on my package. However, they still charged me $300 even though the package has yet to ship.
I ordered Oleplex Hair set (that's the ONLY thing I ordered so should be super easy to pack the shipment - well actually they gave me a small face cream sample - so technically two things). When I got the order and opened it, I'm suprised by the Barriatic Weight-Loss Supplements wth! - no word.
Avoid this company… You will never receive your order but you will be charged. Placed an order in November and it has never shipped but I have been charged. Impossible to reach anyone… I have emailed customer service 10 times with no response. Unethical, trustworthy company. I hope I save customers to headache I'm going through
I wish I could give negative stars. Ordered on 11/25. It is Dec 16 and still not received it. Customer service says it was picked up in Brooklyn!?!?!? What!?. Ask to speak to supervisor immediately. Says she will send an escalated email and some will get back to me within 48 hours. That is certainly not good customer service.
I ordered products 19 days ago. I received an email stating the items were out of stock after ordering. You should not charge the customer if you don't actually have the product in stock! It finally shows shipped USPS but I have never received the items. They refuse to resend items until 30 days have passed and won't refund my money. The customer service people are not willing to do anything at all. Clearly the items have been lost in shipping. I had to dispute with my bank since Dermstore will not do the right thing and refund my money. When I ask the "Chat" customer service to send me a service so I can leave a review they say they will after the Chat ends, then never do. I have contacted them 5 times and they do nothing. Just really bad customer service. I will not order from them again!
The website says to Rate Your Shipping Experience? Are you kidding me. This shipping gets an F…It took 10 days to get from Jersey City New Jersey to Newark New Jersey. Now is going to Trenton. It's been going in circles!
Are you kidding me. This is horrible. I will never order from this store again! I will be reporting this to the Better Business Bureau! I will tell my family and friends not to order from Dermstore!. This is not acceptable. I put the order in on November 21,2020, today is December 15,2020 and I still have not received my order. This is the worse experience I ever had with an online company.
Boy, I wish I had read these reviews BEFORE purchasing. I made an order on 11/27 - status was it was on hold. CS said hold was due to a promotional item being out of stock, so we swapped it. Order was supposed to ship in a couple days. No order shipped... in the meantime my card was charged $263.93 for a $235.80 order (which has STILL has not shipped). Was able to get a refund for the difference & told my order would ship today. NOW I get an email saying my order is on hold & will ship soon. I have no confidence in this company at all. There is something that doesn't appear to be right here. Will be seeking a full refund tomorrow.
It's been 18 days since my purchase on their website, there is still no news about a shipment, nothing is moving, they keep giving me dates and asking me to keep waiting. THIS COMPANY IS IN THE DARK AGES WHEN IT COMES TO SERVICE AND DELIVERY. So disappointed, what a waste of time, nerves, and money.
This website has the worst customer service and took a month and a half to return my money on one purchase, on another they are only giving me store credit on a 140 purchase. They cannot transfer you to a manager and will not resolve an issue
AVOID! Dermstore can't keep up with their orders. It took a week for them to even "process" my order. "Processing" just meant that they notified their shipping partner Newgistics that they intend to mail my order sometime in the next few weeks. It has now been 10 days since my order was placed, and nothing has been shipped even though supposedly everything is in stock. I talked to customer service today and they confirmed that the order has not been shipped yet. However, Dermstore claims they can't cancel my order because they have already assigned it a shipping number (and they billed my credit card as well). They now say the earliest my order may arrive is a week away (after the holiday gift event when this item was needed). That assumes they manage to ship it very soon (which I doubt at this point). AVOID! I will not be purchasing from Dermstore again.
This is absolutely the worst online company I have ever dealt with. I order from them a week (7 business days) ago, the product still hasn't even been pulled, yet unable to cancel because a label was created for a product that is still sitting on the shelves. Absolutely would not recommend this company.
Only quality materials. Every customer is confident in the disinfection of tools. That's why I trust only you with a hygienic manicure.
ABSOLUTELY AWFUL LIKE ZERO CUSTOMER SERVICE. YOU WILL CALL THEM AND THEY HANG UP ON YOU AND/OR ANSWER AND HANG UP. When you place an order & pay for two day shipping they take your money and they dont send via two day they take teh $$ and send out a week if not longer. THEN when you receive the product it is all busted up and opened already! Used producy for top dollar>? NO THANK YOU
GO to SEPHORA OR ULTA OR NORDSTROM RACK OR TJMAXX... DONT WASTE YOUR TIME & MONEY
