Slow Shipping
April 29, 2019

In March of 2019, I ordered an authentic baseball jersey four minutes after the jersey was available for purchase. However, despite my swiftness checking out to insure the product wouldn't sell-out, the order took roughly two months to ship.

We are now two months into the baseball season and I order this jersey in pre-season. For the price paid and the exclusivity of authentic jerseys, this is unacceptable.

Hello William. We are sorry that you had to wait. Unfortunately, this was a special event item and was expected to ship no later than 5/31. However, we do see that we received the jersey before the expected date. The item shipped out on 4/26 and is estimated to be delivered no later than 5/1. Please do not hesitate to send us a private message if we can be of any further assistance.
Sincerely,
Cayla

Faded lettering
April 27, 2019

Ordered 2 Milwaukee Huck Tees - too 3 weeks to arrive. The lettering on the tee was extremely faded and overall poor quality. I went on their website to post a review but - funny, they do not have the option to do so. The neck on one of the tees was pretty stretched out. Not worth the hassle of phone calls and shipping back. Fanatics benefits from customers like me who cannot be bothered- except I will never order their brand of tee ever again!

Totally redeemed yourself
April 22, 2019

I ordered 3 UNC Lacrosse shirts for my son and his friends to wear to the UNC v ND game. They came Wednesday and they did not meet expectations (letters peeling). Fanatics service teams were prompt and thorough in resolving. They rushed a replacement and overnighted then to me. The boys had a blast at the game rooting on the Tar Heels! Phenomenal customer service!

Excellent employee
April 20, 2019

I had a problem placing my order. I called Customer Service and spoke to Anisha. Anisha was so patient with me, extremely patient with me and she helped me finish my order.
How great it would be if other companies had a person like Anisha to help their customers.
Thank you so very much for all your help Anisha!

Same as everyone else
April 11, 2019

Go to order a very basic tee for hockey playoffs, pay for next day shipping, turns out they can't ship it until after game one as they print in them house- making my next day shipping I paid for into 5 day processing + shipping.

Customer service swore it was on the page. No indicator that this was made to order is on the page, just one small fine print line saying "order ships within 4 business days" buried in the text. Still haven't even received an email confirmation of my order days later (my credit card has already been charged of course) so I can't even enter my order ID on this page. Order your gear from literally anywhere else you can.

These folks are a poorly-run operation that is bound to be pushed out by Amazon and the rest. I ordered two simple t-shirts that I wanted arrived by a certain game day. Turns out there was a disclaimer halfway down the page about it being a special sale - shouldn't a special sale item be expedited for (wait for it) the special game? - and that it wouldn't ship until after the game. Well, my bad - that said, neither of the items arrived in the shipping timeframe I paid for, yet all that customer service could muster was a measly $4.99 shipping return and patronizing responses about the fine print on their website. Never shopping here again - they just try to herd folks in and hope those poorly-served customers like me don't leave a review. Sorry Fanatics! Don't shop here.

Hello Bradley, thank you for your feedback! I am very sorry that the item didn't arrive in time for the game. Our number one concern is customer satisfaction. Upon review of your order, the item was a special event item in which out site advises will ship on or before 4/9/2019 by whichever shipping method was chosen. The item was shipped out a day early on 4/8/2019 by standard shipping method 3-7 business days. On our site there are options to have the item ship out withe a faster method. The order was placed on 3/31/2019 and would not had guaranteed the item would arrive in time for the event. The shipping charge was refunded back to the method of payment used to make this purchase. If you no longer wish to keep the item, you can return the item for a refund. I have waived the return shipping fee to send by any local Post Office. Once again, I apologize for any frustration this may have caused you. Sincerely, Julian

Twice now I have placed an order with them with the expectation that it would arrive before the weekend, and both times it didn't. They offer 4 day shipping but yet somehow the day it ships doesn't count as part of the 4-day shipping. So I place my order Monday around 1pm and paid extra to have my order arrive on Friday with 4-day shipping. Somehow the first day of shipping doesn't count, which makes no sense and it is going to arrive on Monday. Same thing happened over Christmas. I ordered 3 shirts, the order was split into two shipments and one of them made it before the weekend when I left school for the holidays because they shipped the other two way out of their way. When I called and complained all I got was a discount on my next order, which doesn't help me at all. Also their online chat service is straight garbage. Never available because "they are servicing other fans". Have they ever heard of a queue? I don't have all day to sit around and refresh the webpage and wait for the 2 second window it shows up as available.

We understand the frustration this causes you and we would like to try and make this right. Please send us a private message so we can assist. Thanks, Chastity

I called MLB Fanatics to place an order, but I was having trouble. Jerry answered the phone and helped me. He was so good mannered yet professional, that he made me feel very comfortable. Nothing was going right before he took over. He went out of his way to assure me that he would take care of everything,, and he did! I had to commend such an awesome job. He was one of the best people I ever had help from. More people should act like this. Excellent service Jerry. Thanks again.
