I ordered a custom dodgers jersey for my boyfriend with his last name on the back with his birthday number and I honestly loved it. It came two days before the delivery date and it looked better than expected. 10/10 recommend I'll for sure order from them again.
I've ordered from Fanatics several Times in the past couple years. Most of the time my order has gotten here in a timely manner. Last time I ordered something it took well over four weeks. I just received two 76er's shirts and decided to send them back. Their charging me $9.99 per shirt just to return them! Not to mention they overcharge on shipping even when they're shipping in the same city of Jacksonville Florida I will not be doing business with this company anymore. I'll wait till I'm up in Philly for all my future purchases!
Fanatics sells on Walmart.com, but originally refused to follow Walmart's return policy. After getting Walmart.com involved, they then offered a return at 50% value. Borderline false advertisement, and horrible business service. Buyers are better off spending their money elsewhere.
Supposed to have given it 3 stars, since it was decent, not too good nor bad. But I believe the overwhelmingly negative reviews here are all unlucky customers. Or maybe it's just that I live two states across this business.

Per Tracking, a gift card was sent out on 12/3.12/14 still not here. E-mail requests for customer service with only an automated response received. E-mailed multiple times w/ no response. Struggled to find a phone number anywhere on the site but finally found one- for group sales where you get a voice mail that they will call back in 24 hrs. Finally found CHAT help. Lengthy pauses during our conversation- probably working with multiple customers at the same time. Then lost the ability to enter any text into the CHAT box so they really make it impossible to communicate with them which is why I will never do business with them again. IF you have a problem, you can't connect with anyone. Finally, said they would refund instead of sending me a new one but said I could order another. Guess what? I definitely won't! Don't want to go through that nightmare again. My money will go elsewhere
Well for the second year in a row, my child is getting a computer print out of the picture of his Christmas presents. We placed our order super early on 11/29 this year, it is now 12/23 and nothing. Two other items we ordered arrived days ago but the remainder, shipped separately for no logical reason, is still out there "in transit". It's been in transit since 12/11. They also do not send confirmation emails or updates which is absolutely ridiculous. Worst customer service. Do NOT order from Fanatics if you ever want to get your items in a timely manner. They charged my credit card quickly enough though!
Hello Holly. We apologize for any inconvenience regarding your order. Since your packages are being delivered to a post office box, it appears to be taking a bit longer as USPS is severely delayed. Your order was shipped in 3 packages because the items were shipped from different warehouses. We have several throughout the United States. Your packages are still in transit to you and should be delivered soon. For the inconvenience we have issued a refund for your original shipping charges. Please allow 2-7 business days for the refund to post back to your original form of payment. Sincerely, Karmen
Reviews are true. Still waiting on my shipment promised by 12/24 never arrived. Customer service is NON-Existing. Waited on hold for 42 minutes and they could not find any record of my $186.00 order but it was taken from by bank account.

We have waived all return fees, in case you want or need to return any of the items for refunds. Sincerely, Karmen
Terrible customer service. They try to fight you over the phone. Ordered a gift on November 25th. Automated system finally updated last week and said order would arrive Dec 21st. Order is still in the UK. It NEVER shipped after almost a month.
Hey Nathan, I am sorry for the inconvenience this has caused you and I would be happy to provide you assistance if you would allow me. I understand this can be frustrating, there have been some shipping delays on our custom products that come from our UK warehouses.
I want to ensure you're taken care of so I have sent you an email that was provided on your order, please respond at your earliest convenience. If you had any questions or concerns please ensure you include them in your response to the email I sent. I look forward to hearing back from you soon! Thanks, Ryan
I had a miserable experience once before with an order that pushed out 20 days then 30 days. Thought I'd give them one more shot but the same old story. I think the most infuriating part with these clowns is if you have a complaint, instead of a meaningful refund (which is basic service recovery) they issue a garbage $10 credit for "future purchases"... I can guarantee there will be no future purchases. Save yourself the trouble and order direct.
Hello Dominick. Thank you so much for your feedback! We are truly sorry to hear about your unpleasant experience. We would love an opportunity to work with you to resolve this matter. Please reach out to us via Private Message and provide your order number. As soon as we have this information we are confident we can work with you to get this resolved to your satisfaction. Thank you for your business and we look forward to hearing from you soon! Sincerely, Karmen
Had a Christmas return, I've now had three different credit codes which none work. I've called customer service several times and feel like just giving up and letting them have the money, which is what they truly want me to do. Quality of their shirts is not good. I wish the NFL would of never signed on with these guys. Totally unprofessional.
Hello Shawn, Thank you for your feedback. We are terribly sorry for the inconvenience this may have caused you. At this time we have located your order and emailed you. Thank you and we hope to hear from you soon. Sincerely, Erika
I ordered a product that was suppose to ship within one business day. Now a week has gone by and still waiting. ( it's in stock.) Doesn't matter which site of theirs you order from the outcome is the same. I see a huge legal lawsuit battle in this company's future. I suggest not buying from Fanatics, which includes all websites such as Nflshop, Mlbshop, Nhlshop, etc... till they get their act together and treat customers as a priority, respectfully and promptly. I've read lots of reviews for each site they own, none of them are good. Hope they improve soon. Btw... where's my order?
Hello M. T., thank you for your feedback! We are so sorry to hear about this experience and would love to work with you to get this resolved. Please reach out to us here via private message and provide your email address and we would be happy to work with you to find out what went wrong with your purchase. Thank you again, we hope to hear from you soon! Sincerely, Julian
She has to keep apologizing for the horrible quality. Yeah we all want MLB shirt from Vietnam. Unreal. This is the worst crap known to mankind. I bought 4 shirts that I would never wear in public. They are ruining the ability to support your team. And Chastity - don't apologize. You won't ever get my money again.
Customer service reached out to me and indicated it will arrive today or tomorrows.
I will update my review afterwards. In the mean time I am sticking with below evaluation
Clueless customer service
Sunk $150, Never ever received my order. Already past due date.
Scam and Shameful company. I hope BBB shut them down ASAP
Go somewhere else... save your money
Bought 6 items (including 3 shirts size XL). 2 of them fit, one didn't. Went to return the $30 shirt and found out "easy/365 returns" and "100% satisfaction guarantee" actually means $9.99 to ship back. Absolutely absurd. I even tried chatting with customer service first to avoid having to post a negative review but there was nothing they could do. Just lost a customer for life and will be sure to spread the word about my experience... hope the $9.99 was worth it...
We'd like to help you with this John. Please send us a private message with your order information and we'd be happy to look into for you. Thanks, Chastity
MLB sweatshirt arrived today. Very cheap material - size medium ordered but looks like extra small. Bought for gift and probably won't fit recipient. Paid $60 and expected heavy, nice quality product. Embarrassed to give as gift as so chintzy. Shop elsewhere!
Hello Gail. Thank you for your feedback! Would you like me to send you a return label to return merchandise for a refund? Sincerely, Brandon.
Bought several items from here, via my veterans id.me account. First off, ordered ten days ago, and only half of my stuff has arrived. The shirts that did arrive are way to big, and want to return, but they charge me 9.99 to exchange for a smaller size?! Insane! I live in Philly, near the stadiums. Ill just go there and purchase from now on. Im done, with this online retailer, will utilize other that do exchanges should I do this again..
Hello Jonathan, thank you for your feedback! I am very sorry about our new return policy. Our number one concern is customer satisfaction. Upon review, you were refunded the return shipping fee. Please allow two to seven business days to reflect on your financial statement. Once again, I apologize for any frustration this may have caused you. Sincerely, Julian
As most of you writing these reviews, I am truly a disappointed fan/customer in the level of quality of the items that I received today. The logos, names are already fading and I JUST GOT IT TODAY! (I wish I could attach pictures to show you). I cannot even describe what I received; the quality is downright horrible and i do not even know how they let this out the warehouse. To make matters worse, I phoned their customer service (2 hour wait, nice that they had the call back feature - Only positive so far). I was contacted back, the lady was helpful, asked for my name and then the call disconnected... she did not even bother to call back... LOL. I had to go and call their customer service line again (now a 3 hour wait.)... :\ So thats where I am at... will write another review to let you guys know what happened... but I am literally at a loss of words. BTW Shipping was about 4 weeks late. :)
If you expect your order in under 2-3 weeks do not order from this website! Their free shipping is horrible does not ship in the amount of time given, it says six days but when I spoke with them they said theres fine print with a 24 hour processing time. I have a game this weekend and am extremely disappointed. Would not recommend. Had to cancel my order and even that was complicated. Wish I would've read these reviews before ordering.
Hello Carissa, thank you for your feedback. We apologize for any inconvenience.Our Free standard shipping is 3-7 business days. We do offer faster flat rate shipping however, each item that is purchased requires a specific warehouse processing time before your order can ship from our facility. Please let us know if we can further assist you. Thanks, Erica R.
Marie Wall was amazing, she provided me with excellent customer service.
Thank you for taking the initiative. Success can never be achieved unless someone, like you, has the vision and desire to initiate it.
Said ordered delivered but the delivery was made at a store. Went to cancel it because I have another order pending and didn't want the same issue. Now I have to wait three days to get my money back or anything. Absolutely no help from anyone associated with this trash company.

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
