Socks with holes
May 20, 2023

I bought 10 pair fuzzy socks - Order # GSHNYQ24T000QX0. There are holes in two! I have complained and they will not even return them!
Very inferior product. Stay away.

I ordered from sheinside nearly 2 months ago, and still haven't even come close to getting my package. Also, all of my items boasted "ships in 24 hours!" when in reality they haven't shipped after 56 days.

DO NOT USE THIS SITE. THERE IS NO PHONE NUMBER TO CALL. HORRIBLE SERVICE.

Dear customer,
Nice day.

Sorry for late reply and we sincerely apologize for the waiting time.
Generally we can ship these items marked with “ships within 24hrs” within 24hrs as we promised. But the item Navy High Waist Pleated Skirt in your order sells well. We took more time to get it from the factory. The shipment was also delayed because of the cancellation request before. Hope you can kindly understand.
Your order was once shipped on 26 April. However, there was something wrong with the shipment and the whole order was detained at the customs. To save your time and bring you no more inconvenience, we decided to resend the order to you. Hope you can kindly trust us.
We have checked for you and found that your new order is under processing now. We noticed that you had contacted our customer service to change the address before. Do you still want to change your address? Maybe you can send us your new address via email later so that we can arrange it for you.
Sheinside is a fast growing company. All our colleagues are constantly improving our service and perfecting ourselves now. We will do better in future.

If you need further assistance, please contact us via dispute@sheinside.com without hesitation.
Thank you.
Yours sincerely.

Do not order from this site. I ordered two dresses a month ago and still have not received them. Also when you e-mail about your shipment all they say is it is our busy season.

Disappointed
February 16, 2022

I just woke up to an unauthorized charge of $652 from Shein. I haven't placed an order in almost 5 months. Now I'm waiting 24 hours for a "chat" response. I'll never purchase anything again.

Good experience
May 4, 2016

I ordered around 3-4 times. Always receive my order, even if the shipping time take ages! Must be patient. The quality is not that bad for the price.

But never had any problem.
