Enjoyable items I just love getting.

Updated review

There have been plenty of great items I have purchased through this website. Whatever I find, I am sure I will buy it. I am always looking for plenty of Baltimore Orioles Items that I enjoy collecting.

I found some great shirts I liked and I wound up buying them.

I bought the Orioles shirts because they were perfect for me and I enjoy buying shirts that I like. They satisfy me and I like what I buy when I see them.

I forgot the reason I don't order from Fanatics: they have horrible customer service and it will take about a month to get your order (I even paid for shipping!) There are a million sites with comparable products and pricing- just avoid Fanatics like

Hello Holland, upon review of your order, we can confirm the items purchased had a three business day time frame to ship.

Placed an order for Father's Day in plenty enough time to receive in time. The perfect gift for Father's Day, they say. My order is just now shipping. Ridiculous! Will never use Fanatics again. Customer service was crap as well. Not helpful at all.

Just got my stanley cup hat I ordered minutes after the final. I was so excited to get it and I'm astonished at how bad the quality is. There are loose threads EVERYWHERE. How does a hat like this get shipped out? Unbelievable. Fanatics is awful, I hope NHL cuts all ties with them. I'll be voting with my wallet until they.

Horrible at Shipping
October 12, 2016

I have placed three orders from this site since May 2016, and each order has not met its promises. I had to contact them about all three orders i had placed to get the process going and get items shipped. This past order will def be my last as I am missing an item and its been almost three weeks since order was placed. Customer service rep was no help with the situation and instead of offering prompt shipment all he kept insisting is a refund.

Fanatics is incredibly disappointing. They will bill your credit card immediately, and not ship your purchase for weeks, if ever. Calling customer service, you'll get put on hold, then disconnected.

They are a money grab, and you'll wind up having to call your credit card company and marking their charges as fraudulent.

Do not use your debit card on Fanatics website as you will have tremendous difficulty getting your money back when your products never arrive.

The previous reviews regarding return policy is true. Even if the mistake is on their part, they won't exchange. You have to return the item on your dime and then pay for shipping for the replacement again. They told me when I returned my jersey that they'd reimburse me for the shipping costs. Never did. Gee, big surprise. Better off going elsewhere.

Still waiting
September 14, 2017

This has to be the slowest response time of any online orders that I have ever submitted. I ordered a shirt on Sept 4. I checked today, and they made a label. I ordered two other shirts on Sept 8, and the status says NEW. Not even processing yet. The website says they ship within 7 days. We need these shirts for a game coming up soon.

Hello Carolyn. Thank you for your feedback! I am very sorry for any inconvenience regarding your order for the two customized items you purchased. The 7 business days noted on our website at the time of purchase is the processing time before the items are shipped. Since we are located in Florida we had to shut down production for a few day. This has caused a slight delay in items being shipped. I apologize that your order was one that was delayed but your order should ship on Tuesday, September 19th and I have upgraded your shipping to Next Business Day shipping for this inconvenience. Please do not hesitate to contact us back if you need to. Most Sincerely, Karmen

They stole my jersey
September 22, 2018

I returned a bike jersey with a detailed letter. I did not have the tags, and said so. I asked for a size return. I never heard from them (>20 day) and chatted. They offered no help, and said since I didn't follow their procedure likely the item was donated to charity. I think they STOLE it.

I will never be their customer again! And I'll take this back if they decide to change their mind. They do have my contact info.

Very bad
November 12, 2019

During 1.5 years I was ordering stuff from this site for about 10 thousand dollars. On my account was 13$ fancash.
Starting with September, they started to cancel all my I tried to reach customer support. They were transferring me to either email, chat or phone number. And nobody was explaining what is the problem and why they cancel all my orders.

Terrible experience
April 1, 2016

I ordered Final Four shirts on a Sunday (day after Elite Eight) for the Final Four game on Saturday. I upgraded my shipping to 2 day and site said items would ship in 3 business days. On Friday, I get an email saying my items are going to ship that day. There is no way I will receive in time for the game so I cancelled the order. My son is very disappointed! If you can't deliver the goods, don't promise that you will.
And I hate live chat customer service - get an 800 number!

No exchanges allowed!
December 7, 2017

If you question anything about sizes or quality this is NOT the place to order from. Tried to exchange a size and was told I had to pay to ship the item back for a return then repurchase the item at today's Price and pay again to ship the item back to me. I paid $18 for a t shirt one week ago and it would cost me $35 to buy it again today AND pay $15 shipping (total) to send the item back and forth. Worst customer service I have ever received! Terrible return/ exchange policy never mind the fact that their price nearly doubled in 1 week! Blows my mind that anyone would even think of such an insane policy when there are so many options and competitors. Never again will I purchase from this company!

Bought a pile of stuff for a big trip to see the Irish Hockey team, ordered a month before we needed it and two weeks out i called to see where the heck it was. Found out they cancelled the order because it was being shipped to a third party for pick up, no notice even after they confirmed the order. This company is a joke and UND should be ashamed that they are using them as a vendor.
Shameful

Hello Tim, thank you for your feedback. I am very sorry that the order was cancelled. A great deal of our business is monitoring packages that are continuously reported lost at certain location. The previously location requested to have item shipped to has had frequent package reported lost, thus the reason to have the order cancelled and refund. I apologize if you were not notified in a timely fashion in regards of the reason for the cancellation of your order. Sincerely, Julian.

Purchased a travel mug as a gift. The top slide came off, no abuse or damage, slide groove fell off - right after the 90 day defective merchandise policy. I learned of the poor quality 6 mos. After purchase. Fanatics refused to talk about the product or provide any manufacturer information for warranty contact. Was not able to speak to a supervisor?! They do not provide any warranty, only a Return policy. They don't care if they sell terrible quality items.

We are very sorry that your item has become defective. This is a Manufacturer Direct item that is shipped directly from that manufacturer. The return timeframe for Manufacturer Direct items is 30 days, not 90 days. We apologize that you were misinformed on that. The manufacturer will not accept a reutrn for a damaged item past the 30 days. You can contact the manufacturer to see if they offer any warranty on the item. It is Great American Products.

Return policy sucks
October 5, 2019

I wish the return policy was made clear when I ordered my shirt. Just two weeks after receiving it, I was told on line that I could not return it. Yet the site advertises a 365 day return policy. The "chat" function was completely useless and there was not option to email my complaint. I don't want to spend time on the phone with a customer service representative. There are plenty of other outlets where I can buy similar merchandise without deception or hassle.
