I made my purchase two days ago, and this is the third day that I am waiting for it to ship! This may not seem like a big deal, but I could've sworn that at least one of these items said "Ships in 24 hours,' at the time of my purchase, which is the main reason that I bought them, because I wanted to receive them in time for back to school (Which as of now, is in 6 days). Now that I checked, none of the things that I have purchased are labeled as items that will ship in 24 hours anymore, and they are still marked as "processing." All I ordered was a pair of jeans and a small purse, so they wouldn't require any extra hassle in the process of handling and preparing to ship. I have read many other reviews, many of them being negative and displeased with the shipping, and now I am worried that my items will arrive much, much later than expected at the time of purchase, which is highly inconvenient because I need then ASAP. If SheIn was more honest about the shipping time, or maybe gave a shipping estimate like done so on other online stores such as eBay, I would've tried to purchase these items at an earlier time, or i would've attempted to find another alternative to this store that ships sooner (and is more honest...) I know that I am probably going to get a response from the SheIn representative saying that "this time of year is busy" or "processing is a lengthy process that is unpredictable," but that doesn't account for the dishonesty of shipping time and deception for not informing customers that processing takes a few days, to a few weeks. Overall, I am disappointed and hoping to be receiving my items soon.

Hi Juliana,

Thank you for choosing SheIn.
Sorry for the late reply and keeping you waiting.

Sometimes we can ship these items which marked with "Ships In 24hrs" within 24hrs, but we found that some items we need more time to stock them. Hope you can kindly forgive us and accept our sincere apologies.
Your order has been shipped on Aug 31, as the logistics company needs time to update the information, sometimes we may not be able to see the detailed tracking information until it has been arrived at your country. We will give you the tracking number via email, you can track it later. Hope you can wait patiently.

Sorry again for all the inconvenience.
Hope you can receive your package soon.
Best wishes

I ordered six items from the US website. That was easy enough and I liked the prices. I got the items in a reasonable timeframe. Once I received my order, I tried on all the clothes. Only two items I needed to return. One because of the fit the other I had received with light, blue and black smudges on them. Based on the information on their Return Policy page on the website, I submitted a ticket for the return and refund.

The first thing I thought was odd was they sent me a message back saying they wanted to see pictures of the item that had smudges on it. I complied and tried to upload them on the ticket. There was a problem with trying to upload them on the ticket so they told me to email them. In the meantime, a representative sent me a message on the ticket saying to keep the damaged item and they'd refund me "35% of the coupons as compensation" whatever that means. I rejected that saying I just want to sent both items back for a refund. They said they would accept my refund but just wanted to see photos first. I told them I had emailed them to an email address that a chat representative gave me.

So to try to shorten this, I have spoken with whatever representative answers the ticket messages, a representative that answers the emails, and a chat representative. SheIn has gone back and for saying they would give me a refund then telling me to keep the item for some sort a small partial refund (even today, they said to keep it and they would give me $5 back).

I am fed up with them. This is the worst customer service experience I think I've had with any company (and I'm an AT&T customer!). I will never order from them again.

Hi dear,

Thank you for ordering from our website and truly sorry for keeping you waiting.

We have checked your order, and noticed that three items in your order sold well before, so we need more time to stock these items. Please remember that you are our precious customer, your satisfaction is our best comfort. Also we ever tried our best to stock items, but we still failed. We also noticed that your order belongs to cash on delivery, generally if some items in your order are out of stock, the system will cancel whole order. Moreover, we have sent the email to notify you, you can check your email box later. Hope you can kindly understand.

We sincerely apologize for all the inconvenience we have brought to you. SheIn is a legal fashion company, all of our employees are sparing no efforts to resolve this problem. Hope you can trust us.

Apologies again for the delay, hope you can have a nice day!

Hi dear,

Sorry for keeping you waiting so much time.
We have checked for you, and found that your package has been shipped on August 3rd. We also noticed that the shipping way you chosen is standard shipping. Sometimes it takes nearly 20 business days rather than 20 days. Hope you can kindly understand.

RT344495674HK is your tracking number, the logistics information shows that your package still in transit now. You may receive it soon. Please no worry, you are our precious customer, we will do anything that we can to meet your requirements. Hope you can trust us.

Sorry again for all the inconvenience. Hope you can receive your package soon.
If you have any problems, please feel free to contact us.
Yours sincerely

If I could, I would not give ONE star to this site. Complete scam! Placed my order over a week ago and then got an email saying my payment had not gone through. Check my credit card online and it shows that the payment went through and was posted. I email them telling them I had paid and would like my stuff. They email me back asking for an order number, so I give it to them. TWO major flags here: 1. They couldn't track the order number that they had sent me IN the email that informed me that my payment hadn't gone through. 2. They couldn't find where my email had made any orders period. IF THEY DONT SEE WHERE I MADE AN ORDER WITH MY EMAIL, HOW IN THE HECK DID I GET AND EMAIL FROM THEM ABOUT MY PAYMENT FOR MY ORDER?! This doesn't make ANY sense to me! They keep asking me for my credit card number and proof of items bought. Sent a screenshot of my bank statement and also sent in the order numbers. This site is nothing but a scam and a hassle to deal with. I'm pressing charges to get my money back or having my items THAT I PAID FOR delivered ASAP! DO NOT ORDER FROM HERE!

Hi dear,

Thank you for ordering from our website. We’re truly sorry for letting you down.

We are sorry for confusing you. The coupon is based on the original price of each item. If the item is on sale and has a larger discount than the coupon discount, then it cannot enjoy the coupon discount any more. You have got the biggest discount.

You placed on July 25 including 7 items. Now, you items have been prepared well. We will ship them out as soon as possible.

Apologies again for all the trouble, hope you will receive the order soon!
