  • This made me realize it was definitely not JUST a COVID delay, but blatant disregard for customer service.
  • Took three weeks to get a gift card that what not properly activated, great!

“Nice shipping time”

Was a little worried about buying from all the reviews but I ordered 3 shirts and they shipped it internationally within 2 weeks, which is fast compared to other companies.

“COMPANY STEALS ART”

Shelby B.
3/5/24

They stole Sam Larsons art. All their clothes are so overpriced! How do you not have the money to pay someone for their work? They'd rather line their own pockets than pay artists for their work! I will never shop or recommend pac sun ever.

To start, there has been multiple times I've placed an order on pacsun.com that included an item that qualified for free shipping (stated on their current "coupons & promotions" page) and found out later I actually was charged for shipping. Customer service has always fixed this, but getting through to someone is always very difficult and if you reach out on social media, they say you have to call. Shipping takes a while, and it doesn't update for a few days, or will be stuck in processing. I've waited upwards of a month to receive an item I ordered a few months back and customer service didn't help, but I ended up getting it later on thankfully. I've also had an item cancelled for being "out of stock" but then when I went back on the website they are in stock and available to purchase. Quality is decent, depending on what you buy, but sometimes I get items a week later and sometimes a month later. Purchasing and shipping is very inconsistent and if shipping was free, I'd understand but it's frustrating to have to pay for shipping and then still have to wait weeks.

Most of the item I order online come fairly quick, but everytime I order with Pacsun online it take a couple of weeks to a month to arrive. Customer service is alright and the quality of clothing is good. Shopping on their website also has a quite number of bugs and makes shopping a bit difficult.

Says "Free shipping on orders over $50". Shows $0 shipping fee until about two lines before entering your card number, then adds $10. :) Frustrating when I'm already spending $200+ on their $#*!. Wouldn't care if I was just told in the beginning that I would be paying, but they try to be sneaky and act like they're giving deals when THEY'RE NOT.?

I bought a dress at PacSun and washed it and the color bled and the zipper broke. I had the receipt and tags and took it back - they only do store credit! Scary they don't back their products and only give store credit. I wont be shopping there anymore - try Tillys!

I get black friday is considered a huge sale and is very busy. However, I also think it is the employees job to have knowledge about the sales and products. I love pacsun, but i was disappointed with my visit today, November 25,2016. I went into a Pacsun store and considering that it is Black Friday, I was given a little hand out with the store deals. There was a BOGO 50% off sale which included some exclusions. There was also a deal saying "$15 Bodysuits" and i looked around card to see if their were exclusions on the bodysuits and to see if it was for selected styles only, and there was no specification. Therefore, I found a bodysuit i really liked, and decided i'd ask an employee about whether or not it was included in the $15 sale. The employee told me "yes that one is $15." I even asked 3 other employees about it just to make sure and i got the same answer, yes. So i felt content about it and went to go pay for the item... then was told that it was NOT a sale item. Its upsetting when theres a big sale going on and employees don't tell you accurate information. However, in the moment i was loving the bodysuit so i bought it at its full price of $32. But now, im going to return it because I dont think its worth it anymore. Not to mention, I decided to return it in store a few hours after the purchase and was told to go in line to return. After waiting 10 minutes to return it, an employee told me that they cant do any returns as of today until Monday because the system is "too slow" and that "its too busy". Oh really? Because at other pacsun stores, returns and exchanges is still allowed on black friday. I use to be a huge fan and loyal member of pacsun, but now i dont know how i feel anymore.

I ordered from Pacsun for the first time on March 7, then 12,2017. Clothes took a bit longer to arrive I expected, comparing this clothing company to the other ones like Forever 21, Hollister, etc. It was 7 business days, excluding weekends, so 10 days total. Everything came in good condition, and I only ended up returning two things because 1. The fit made me look wide for a jacket 2. The color of the sole of these Vans sneakers were off (brown instead of tan). There's a sticker attached to the invoice inside the package for returns, which may lead one to think returns are free. However, fine print says "$7 will be deducted from your refund."
