I let store envy know that they had a scammer. They stated they were aware of the scammer... thats it. Wasted money and time.
I used to be a seller and loved it because it was the cheapest alternative to your own custom store. I sold for almost a year without problems. Early this year they made a bunch of changes including marketplace commissions and adding Stripe. After that they had so many glitches and site outages. People were contacting me saying they couldn't check out, I couldn't get in to see orders and the last straw was when someone was charged 7 times for a single order because the site was malfunctioning and not showing that the order was processed on her end so she kept hitting the submit button. There were so many outages that I had to think how many people were not buying because of problems!
They have a marketplace but honestly it is a joke. I searched the marketplace for my product (keyword used, words in title and description) and it didn't show up until page 6. My product is not common, so it is not like other items were pushing me back to page 6, it was 5 pages of completely irrelevant products, then on page 6 items with the keyword you searched.
If you want to be a seller and have customers come to you, you would need to use a marketplace that actually pulls the words you are searching like Amazon, Etsy and Ebay. I tried my keywords on those and they were all up on the first page. So I am not sure why you would pay 10% commission on a marketplace that sucks if you can use Ebay for 10% or Etsy for 3.5%.
If you drive your own traffic to the site and do not rely on the marketplace it is a very cost effective option, as long as you don't mind frequent bugs. (there are less than 10 people running this huge platform so they have lots of problems without a lot of help)
Took weeks to ship, then shipping two weeks after that. I had to buy something else for my friend for Christmas. Still waiting
This is a great place to shop from, they are so good to work with. They also have super fast shipping! Great experience
I ordered a sweatshirt and got it faster then when they said it would be here. I will be using this site again.
I have a store open and I get a lot of views and hardly any sales. Staff is unhelpful at best. Etsy is a much better platform.
I purchased some shoes and there was an issue with them. It was taken care of very quickly and the shipping was very fast
I ordered an ipod case 3 months ago and already paid for it an its not here! I dont give it 1 star i give it minus 10
I really like my blanket. It looks like I had anticipated, and my family agreed it was nice. I took it on vacation this month! I plan to order again
I buy something in the store but the store don't have the product. And now the store don't want refund my money. This is bad store.
Love the dress. Fits as size indicated. Arrived on time. I will be suing this site again. Thanks Storenvy.
Wish I could have returned it or not accepted the gift! But they won't allow me to do that. Will never order something here again
Total scam they don't respond to issues or help you get a refund when you've been screwed over. Worst selling/buying site ever.
No feedback from site or store! Paid extra for fast shipping but they never shipped it! Do not buy at them!
Storenvy is an excellent store with tees which you can't get in europe... I will be using this site again.
Everything went off without a hitch. Very easy to follow. I will be using this site again. Thank you.
Bought liquid glass coating from Dizelo store and recieved it quite fast. Very good pricing and product works excatlly as described!
Answer: No! Please stay far away from this site.
Answer: Honestly, I'm very surprised by these reviews too. We have over 100,000 store owners, so I suppose there are bound to be some people who didn't have a great experience. But we certainly have a lot of successful, loyal merchants.
Answer: Just like Etsy or Amazon, Storenvy isn't a single seller, it's a site featuring shops hosted by a network of different sellers. My advice would be to check out the information on the page of the particular seller you're looking at. Look at their feedback and their shipping timelines, and that should give you a better idea of what to expect. Most of the sellers there are fantastic, but it's always best to do research before buying from a new person :)
Answer: Its not "technically" a scam, its just a website with a bunch of people who put up stores. The problem is many of those people are not good at running a business (and the individual store owners might be scams or might not be) and the company "storeenvy" takes no responsibility for their actions. You will have better luck on EBAY or AMAZON because there is buyer protection and actual customer support. StoreEnvy is not a 'scam', they just suck.
Answer: Each seller is independent within the site. I never got a response from Storenvy customer service, so Paypal refunded my $. So you take your chances. Ebay will refund if the item is not as described or pictured. Also look at where the item ships from, if it's China, it could take 2 weeks and more.
Answer: Your best bet is to pay close attention to the reviews for the seller. Much like Amazon or Etsy or eBay, each seller is responsible for their store and the things they sell in it - which means some things are going to be fabulous and some won't be. So check the reviews and make sure you know that the seller you're trying has a solid reputation with their buyers and consistently delivers a good quality product.
Answer: Nope i wouldn't do it... the whole site is fraud. Myself and a few other people are in pursuit of getting our money back.
