Be very careful buying anything from fanatics for someone else.my daughter got me a gift for Christmas and I just wanted to exchange it for something else and because they only have a 30 day return policy I can not exchange it for anything else.i would recommend you don't shop at fanatics.The customer service people do not work with customer.They only care about themselves.I recommend you shop somewhere else for sports merchandise.There are plenty of other options out there!
Rarely do I write reviews but in order to help save a person from frustration, I will write this saying avoid ordering from this company and by no means, pay for expedited shipping. I have ordered from here 3 years in a row for Christmas. I'm apparently a slow learner. $16.99 for expedited shipping in the beginning of December is no guarantee and they have a different excuse each year. This year, it's not their fault due to Fed Ex being behind. When I finally got a human on the phone from 6000 miles away, she said it would be delivered tomorrow. She can't send me updated tracking so I have to trust her. Save yourself time and order from Amazon or not at all.
John, employee # *******, sets the standard for excellent communication and customer service. Professional and to the point as he explained routine business coupon policy (1).
Will let Veteran friends and associates know about NHL Shop experience.
Because Fanatics accepts only "testimonials" on their webiste, I'm leaving my review here. I received as a gift a Franco Harris autographed football from them. All seemed great at first. Loved it. Then took it down from the acrylic stand to show it off and its deflated. Unfortunately, it was over 365 days when I noticed this, so no exchange or return. Shame on me for that, but I would expect a $300 football to hold air beyond a year. I wonder how much its worth now?!?!?! The lesson - don't wait 365 days to show it off.
Ordered an item 15 of july 2018. International shipping delivery expectation 4 - 10 business days. Placed a call after 10 days with information that my order will be delivered on 30 of july. Today is 6 of august and nothing.
No working email!
No chat working!
Only number in USA (calling from europe hold on line twice for 17 minutes
Hello Andrej, thank you for your feedback!. I am very sorry that the package hasn't been received as you expected. Our number one concern is customer satisfaction. Upon review, shipments to your country takes up to 7-21 business days be delivered not the 4-10 business days. You were fully refunded in error as it has yet to reached the full 21 business days to be delivered. At this time if the package is delivered, I ask that you contact me so that you can be recharged for the package as it is received. You can do so by emailing me at Customerfirst@fanatics.com. Once again, I apologize for any frustration this may have caused you. Sincerely, Julian
I was very excited about getting some new MN Twins gear for my best friend who lives out of state. Received the items and unfortunately do not fit! The LARGE size is oversize in both items. I can't believe it costs $9.99 PER ITEM to ship back? How is this even possible? $20 to ship two light weight t-shirts is insane. How can this be the policy?
Hello Shawn, thank you for your feedback! I am very sorry about the shirt not fitting. Our number one concern is customer satisfaction. I have waived the return shipping fee. You can print a return label on our site and attach it to the package. The package can be dropped off at any local Post Office. Once again, I apologize for any frustration that this may have caused you. Sincerely, Julian
Not only did my order take forever to be processed. The hoodie quality looks like I got it from a flea market, I paid $128 for! Very cheap material and print job. Then when trying to return they keep giving me the run around, telling me they have someone working on it, it's now passed the return date according to their policy. I'll never ever order from here again and I strongly advise you don't either!
Hello Kanisha, I do apologize for the inconvenience. I reviewed your order and sent an email to the email address on the order. We apologize again for the inconvenience and hope to hear from you soon. Sincerely, David
I received promptly item I ordered in great condition. My issue is customer service. My item was a gift, which ended up being a duplicate so I wanted to return it. Fanatics promotes "Easy Returns. Free Shipping."... not so much. Very misleading. Fanatics automatically charges $5.50 for me to return a shirt while USPS would charge $3.78. I contacted Fanatics via their email system and chirp... chirp... Needless to say, I won't shop there again. Lesson learned. A dispute doesn't need resolved here as I gave shirt to another person; just giving a heads up on their return shipping costs.
Hi Mel, we do understand your frustration with this issue and we are more than happy to assist you. We have looked into your order and we have waived the return fee on the order number provided. We do apologize for the way this issue has been handled and hope we can make things right. Please let us know if there is anything we can further assist you with. Sincerely, Whitney P.
Fanatics brand is the worst bunch of imitation garbage I've ever seen in my entire life. It looks like something ordered from Wish. I have always bought new hockey jerseys from quality brands everytime they were released but I can assure you I will never spend a dime on anything from fanatics brand. The NHL really shot themselves in the foot giving away the contract for apparel to Fanatics.
I ordered an item priced at $139.99 CAD (Canadian dollars) on their website, however, I was charged in US dollars! This totalled $187.99! I spoke with the company three times but got no where and they refused to refund the difference. When a price online says it's CAD a company can't charge USD! Completely dishonest!
Hello Kim, thank you for your feedback! I am very sorry that you were charged additional by your financial institution. Our number one concern is customer satisfaction. Unfortunately, our company doesn't convert the rate from CAD to USD. When this order was placed, it was on our NHL CA site which automatically converts the product into the CAD price of $139.99. What you financial institution does thereafter is out of our control. I would contact your financial institution regarding the over charge on your account. Once again, I apologize for any frustration this may have caused you. Sincerely, Julian
7 days from Ohio to VA Beach? I could have walked the distance by then. Must be the longest 500 miles in the history of FedEx... then it said free shipping and they charged me for it. Just say no to this very poorly run company and get your merchandise elsewhere
Hello Sheila, thank you for your feedback! I am very sorry that you haven't received the package as expected. Our number one concern is customer satisfaction. Upon review, your order was made on 6/12/2018 and the product that was order was a special event item that would ship no later than 6/18/2018. However, the item was shipped earlier than expected on 6/15/2018. The method of shipping chosen was 3-7 business days shipping. The next following business day was 6/18/2018 and per shipping tracking the package should be delivered by 6/19/2018. Once again, I apologize for any frustration this may have caused you. Sincerely, Julian
Wish I had seen these reviews before purchasing. Paid for expedited shipping and after giving it an extra few days item still not here and per chat "possibly lost." Says I need to wait til the Fed Ex delivery date (which is well beyond the promised date) before initiating a refund. No longer in stock. Their website says "... And if we screw up, we'll make it up to you every time. Even on Sundays! " Ummm... I don't think so. Did absolutely ZERO to make it up and I can't even get a refund until the FedEx estimated delivery date is passed so I'll have to keep track of it and just get more angry by the day. Total fail and now we're scrambling to find a shirt for the occasion.
I'm guess I should've checked the reviews before ordering. I decided to order from this site because the quality of the products along with the prices. Actually needed the items for the beginning of next week and thought it would ship once I was billed like other sports company's. I could have easily ordered from the school bookstore and had the items in route. Very disappointed from my first experience and possibly my last. Please allow packages to be tracked and be known whether items have shipped or not, rather than just having a status that says: New.
Hello Ronald. Thank you for reaching out regarding your order. We can confirm the items ordered had a shipping date associated at the time of purchase and once the order has been shipped, you will receive an email confirmation. We truly apologize for the inconvenience this has caused you. Thank you, Chastity
Please do not spend your money here. I paid $120 for a hoodie that showed up once as a return. The second time with the wrong logo. Sent it back ensuring I would not be charged for shipping. Told there was nothing they could do to replace. Ended up losing $20 and having zero to show for it. Super shady and terrible quality. These prices are insane for this level of quality. Shop anywhere else
The printing and design were great. For the money spent I expected a better quality t-shirt. The shirts are so thin they are almost see-thru.
Update... CSR requested more info which I sent to them two weeks ago(10-8)... nothing but crickets now.
Hello Dan, thank you for your feedback! I am very sorry about the quality. Our number one concern is customer satisfaction. Could you please private message us, I was unable to locate the order with that information that was provided? Sincerely, Julian
I placed an order, paid 2 day shipping. Four days later- nothing. Called fedex- they had not received the package. Called Fanatics- they say my order was lost- no apology. Asked if they could resend and they said yes, only to then come back and say items were out of stock. I cancelled and now waiting 7 days for a refund. The girl was unapologetic, even when I prompted her that she could at least apologize. She said "I'm sorry the carrier lost your order". Unbelievably poor service.
Hello Jenny, thank you for your feedback! I am very sorry about the package not being received. Our number one concern is customer satisfaction. Upon review of the tracking, the first package was located by FedEx and shipped out today on 12/6/2019 and will be delivered on 12/9/2019. I ask that once the package arrives, that you return one of the Men's Colosseum Black Nebraska Cornhuskers Arch & Logo Crew Neck Sweatshirt. I have waived the return shipping fee on your order. Once again, I apologize for any frustration this may have caused you. Sincerely, Julian
They sold me a faulty product that I tried to live with for a couple of months, but problem kept getting worse. So I asked to do an exchange. Instead of a 365 return policy, it was actually a 90-day return policy. I missed the cut-off by 10 days and that's mainly because the times I tried to contact them before, their customer service was unavailable because the backlog queue was full. Also never mind that the order took about a month to finally get delivered. I've been a repeat customer for years. But I guess that doesn't count. Rather than making the order right, they found a loophole to hide behind. They will not get another dime from me!
Thank you for reaching out Dale. We truly appreciate the feedback and we would like to offer our assistance. We understand you have been a loyal customer and we are sorry you had this experience. Although we do see that this item was delivered in the 3-7 business day timeframe that was selected, we understand you no longer want this item.

I ordered my personalized Seahawks cup and my Dallas Cowboys cup arrived with my wife's make on it. After trying to find something other then AI customer service I found a number where I got to talk to someone I couldn't understand. They instructed me to wait until the arrival time had passed (it was early) to be able to get a refund. That's 7 days from now. Plus I've got to call them back on that day. This company is behind the times. Unprofessional and complete garbage.
Hello Lucas, thank you for reaching out regarding your experience. We are terribly sorry for the inconvenience of the item being received incorrect. I have reached out to you via e-mail regarding your order. I look forward to your response. Please let us know if we can help you further. Thanks, Tina
I was looking at ordering a jersey, but decided to check reviews before ordering, and came across this page. After reading, I remembered that there is a fanatics app that I have gotten several FREE items from just by playing games. All of the stuff came within 2 weeks (don't remember exact days), and they were good quality. Not sure why all the reviews are so negative. Sorry things don't come in 2 days like amazon, but I have had a great experience thus far with this company.
Samantha, thank you for reaching out and we are grateful for the positive feedback! Thanks, Brandon.
I ordered a house sign as a gift, but it came too late and damaged. When I went on the website to find out how to return it, I found that they would charge $9.99 for the return shipping label. This left me with a refund of about $8. I went to their customer service area and the "live chat" was not available. I do not have time to sit on the phone about this, but am very unhappy. Why did I ever order from them? Also got a collapsible clothes hamper which came separately in a huge box. The item was in a dirty plastic bag.:-( My graduation gifts were a bust!
Hello Elaine, thank you for your feedback! I am very sorry that the item arrived damaged. Our number one concern is customer satisfaction. I have waived the return shipping fee. It is our policy that if an item is damaged, that the fee should be waived. You can go to our return center and print out a return label. The label can be attached to the packaged and returned to any local Post Office. Once again, I apologize for any frustration this may have caused you. Sincerely, Julian
Answer: I have no experience ordering from Australia so I'm afraid I will be of no help. I do agree that the holiday will add a little extra time but I don't believe it's as bad as everyone is saying. I don't know why I had such a good experience with them when it sounds like everyone else is angry with them. I'm curious to see how it goes for you.
Answer: Good luck. I just kept getting stupid answers until I filed a BBB complaint. Then I got instant satisfaction.
Answer: Hello Timo, Thank you for your feedback. We appreciate your business! Mike, Shannon, and Brad -- We would love to have an opportunity to work with you each regarding your less-than stellar experiences. Please provide your order numbers so that we may research and work on resolving your poor experiences! We value each of you and hope you will give us an opportunity to make this right.
Answer: No kidding. These fools are liars and thieves. They literally have fulltime dedicated employees who monitor sites like SiteJabber to provide responses to all the well deserved, nasty Fanatics reviews. It is entirely likely that any and all positive reviews touting their customer service are internally generated by their own employees. Write letters to your licensing body whether it be NFL or MLB and let them know about Fanatics and their FRAUDULENT and DECEPTIVE business practices. Fanatics should be glossed as Fraudnatics. BUYER BEWARE!
Answer: Hello, Thank you for reaching out to us. When an item is found to be out of stock the money is refunded back to the original form of payment. In addition, we issue a store credit on top of this for the inconvenience.
Answer: I would not worry to much about the negative feedback. You should get your items delivered to you with no problem. It might take a little time to be delivered but I had no problems with fanatics.
Answer: Please provide us with the contact information we can best reach you with so that we can pass this along. Julia.
Answer: Thank you for your correspondence. I am very sorry that you had this issue with the item. If you could please private message me your order number so I can take a further look?
Answer: Hello, thank you for reaching out. Upon reviewing your orders should arrive no later than December 13,2017.
Answer: Thank you for reaching out Michael. Refunds can take 2-7 business days for the refund to reflect back on the form of payment that was used at checkout. Thanks, Cayla
