Ordered what was listed as a woman's shoe. Turns out I received a mens shoe. Obviously did not fit and Eastbay would not offer free return shipping for an exchange. Horrible customer service. Would never buy from them again. Buyer beware. Look elsewhere.
Bottom feeders. I would have rated them in the negative numbers if I could.
Ordered $166.00 pair of nike 270 air max. Got email saying package was delivered. It wasn't. Called customer service. They have to do a 8 business day investigation/2 weeks while I wait to hear back from them. I have no product even though they have my money. This is terrible business/customer service. Do not buy from this company.
I ordered new running shoes and had them the very next day. It typically takes a couple more days than that when I order, but this time it was so fast (just like me in my new shoes)!
I purchased shoes, then several emails they couldn't locate item. Wasted hours on hold w customer service. Then they had me reorder with another color and it was the same thing all over again where they claimed they didn't have it. I honestly think they're selling stuff they don't even have access to.
After contacting eastbay the second day at their corporate office and someone actually listening to me that we did not wear or dirty sneakers Corporate realized that we did not dirty sneakers and they are exchanging sneakers for a different size. I will just be a little Leary on a return if ever needed again.
Bought cheer sneakers for my daughter after Achilles surgery. Well her regular size did not fit on her right foot it hurt she could not wear. She took right off put back in box and I then exchanged for bigger size. After a few weeks called to ask where the exchange was. I was informed the sneakers were filthy on the soles and full of hair. I said well those were not the sneakers I returned my daughter could not wear them one foot to painful to put on. Customer services kept replying well we sent you photos and we will not exchange worn shoes. After arguing back and forth they refused to acknowledge that something happened to them in their warehouse after my return because they were brand new sneakers never worn. I don't know what kind of scam this is but I will never ever never ever recommend buying anything from this place.
I've placed 2 orders on eastbay.com, did not have any problems.
One thing to keep in mind for International (non US) customers is you will have to pay TAX for your order which usually isn't cheap.
Terrible experience! Had issues on their end allowing my order to go through. Attempted to purchase again the next day and the items I wanted that were still in my cart processing from the day before were no longer on sale! I contacted live chat and also phoned in and nobody would even offer me a discount to help with the difference of cost! Terrible customer service. Will not order from Eastbay again!
Unacceptable business practices. Items show in stock on their site and backorder email immediately after ordering. 30 days with no shipment, no contact, they cannot provide an ETA or confirm ship method. Customer service reps are poorly trained if they even speak English, they suggested I call back daily for status on commodity items. Horrible company
Attempting to order two school items from Eastbay. They are available and in stock on the web site but, when ordering, I receive an error message about an invalid address - I've been living at the same address for 12+ years and Amazon, FedEx, UPS, etc have no problem with my address or validating it for proper formatting. Call Eastbay - tell them what's wrong. 45 minutes of mostly hold. They cannot help. Try Eastbay chat. Same and they direct me to an email address for help which doesn't work. So, they provide another email address that doesn't work. In short, 1+ hour of my time wasted. I wouldn't recommend doing business with them as its just a waste to deal with any CS issues (much less actually wanting to buy something from them).
I have 3 teens who are really into Vans Shoes. The most popular styles and sizes of these tend to go out of stock quickly. I stumbled on Eastbay last Christmas after searching literally dozens of sites for a particular shoe. Much to my surprise they had it in a wide range of sizes. The same was true when I went looking for birthday gifts later on. Prices are the same as other sites or sometimes better. Had to do a return with some complications and couldn't be happier with the prompt customer service. I had read reviews about bad service and was leery but mine went smoothly. Shipping and returns are usually free.
After reading all the negative reviews I almost didn't let my son order sneakers from Eastbay. He talked me into it and I'm glad he did. His sneakers were half the price at what they are sold for around us (if they have them) and arrived on the day they said they would be here. Couldn't ask for anything more. I'm sure I'm not the only buyer that has had positive results from this company. Maybe more people should write some of there positive reviews instead of just the negative feedback.
I have used my own card and personal address for over 5 years, but recently they just keep canceling my order cuz it did not pass their stupid "Payment Verification System". I called their system center, and they say they don't even know what is going wrong. SO DISAPPOINTED!
I've been using eastbay since 1999-2000 they send out free catalogs just about every 2 weeks it feels like. Great deals, great shipping, great customer service. I called 800 number and after only 1 button I was talking to a real human, I was stunned! Best place to order any athletic equipment. Stay out of wal-mart order from eastbay!
These shoes are fake. I had a problem with my son cleats and when I sent them to Nike. They pretty much said they fake. No manufacturer label in them like nike put in their shoes. I'm so pissed! Eastbay is not willing to help at all!
Horrible customer service, never reply or answer the phone. What's worse is they blame it on covid, no other companies have a hard time. Very unhappy, still trying to get a refund for items never received. They lost a customer of ten years, beware.
I recently placed an order with Eastbay. They were very quick about charging my card and placing my purchase on their on line tracking system. That was July 10th which my status was shipped and in transit. Today is July 26 and my order status is the same. I tried to call all you get is a recording pretending like there are customers service reps present but dont there is. My next step will be filing theft charges with my State Attorney's Office.
I wish I had read these reviews first. My initial order didn't go through so I emailed and asked if there is an order. They advised it takes 48 hours to go through so a week later I got confirmation of no order. So I placed another one. When the order arrived I got an email 2 days later saying the order is confirmed (2 weeks after!) and about to be posted. I quickly emailed (twice) asking them to stop this order but then the replies went quiet.
The final response was I can return the shoes. Not even an apology.
We ordered football cleats for my son. When it arrived it was too big. We contacted the company and they advise us to do an exchange. While we are on the phone with them, they mentioned that inventory is low, and we should not wait for the exchange. They advise you to do a return and at the same time to purchase another pair with the correct size because of the low inventory. We proceed and took their advice. Now after we received the new correct size, we were waiting for the refund on the first pair.
When we call to check on the refund, they claim that the cleats are used, and they only can give us an E-gift card. We told them that the cleats had never been used and after the return, we purchased the correct size. In the initial call to customer serve ice, the rep spoke with the supervisor and approved the refund to the credit card. Two weeks later we did not see any refund so we called customer service. The rep was very rude and unhelpful, and when she let me speak with the supervisor, the supervisor was by far the worst experience of customer service I ever had. She keeps claiming that the cleats were used (claimed by the return department) but she can't give me proof that it was used, therefore I am getting an e-gift card.
When I asked to speak with the manager, she claimed that she can't do that and she is the highest that I can speak with. I am expecting a full refund for my original large-size cleats, and an apology for the rudeness of the supervisor. In my job, we handle 4000 customers a year, and never ever acted this way to a customer.
My go to place for sports gear and shoes...
Excellent job east bay! Always happy with my purchase
They even sent a 20% off promo code with every purchase
Keep an eye on the site they offer great sales from time to time
No hesitation free shipping and free returns, they always send
Shipping info and 100% authentic and genuine brands never a bootleg or knock
I've spent 1000s here never an issue
The price shown was not the price I paid
They ripped me off
Beware this site are there only to take your money. I asked him them to cancel my order within 2 min after the purchase as I was being charged $155 dollars for 2 windcheaters. What a rip off. They could have cancelled my order but instead they send my item the next day. The quality was cheap and faded looking. DO NOT Buy from them. They then said I have to pay for the return post. I had emailed them 10 times in 2 hours. And still bad customer service. I have purchased online many times but I will NEVER buy from
Eastbay again. Again beware buyers. This site will cheap you. Un happy Australian buyer. I'm hoping PayPal helps me. Sonia -Melbourne Australia
Answer: I don't think it is I'm No authority but other Nike apparel that I purchased from a Nike outlet store is more durable and doesn't have the flaws like the graphic completely peeling away after one wash like the Nike T-shirt I got from East Bay I believe there's a lot of imitation Nike sneakers and apparel floating around I once bought a pair of Nikes from eBay and the exact same model of Nikes through the Nike app actually arrived around the same time and I could tell the ones I got from eBay were knockoffs immediately
Answer: If u live in America it says that. I live in Australia and it says 5-10 days, it's been 11 days and I need these shoes soon
