I wish that the items I purchase get delivered I'm wasting so much money. I hope the remaining purchases get delivered in time..
I have had 2 different situations where I have ordered multiple large expensive items and they are always sent somewhere else, even though I have the tracking number with my address. Very frustrating when you are using things like this for Christmas gifts. I have received most ( not all) of my small items! The lack of phone number is frustrating as well.
Been good so far some stuff was not like it showed but most was ok no instructions with some items i ordered
So far all I've ordered is as advertised and delivered in the time told. Will continue to shop with Tophatter
Metal cars that my wife ordered weren't metal, they were plastic.
Lights that i ordered said Solar... but used batteries. Most of the products are good but some are false.
I can't redeem my rewards points I have over 2000 points. I have several emails for assistance in this matter and no one will answer me.
Bought lots of collectibles and jewelry for Christmas this year... Tophatter has so many great selections on brands and and items I needed.
I am very disappointed because I have had a item be delivered to another state. Then another item they sent wasnt even what I ordered. I have sent emails with no response at all I either want what I ordered or my money back
WAY too good to be true. This site sells JUNK! Everything from every category I purchased has been TOTAL JUNK. The quality is so poor it is almost funny. People DO NOT BUY FROM THIS SITE!
Tophatter says i received an item did not,,, sent request to fix... NO RESPONSE they sent me a received report of something i did not receive... they will not responmd for weeks now
Enjoy placing a bit and watching the outcome hoping to gain a great deal on every purchase when I loose the bit I look forward for the next chance I get to place my bit to win. The payment is secured and safe the item are very competival with the price I paid.
Don't buy, or bid on the Scrounge site Tophatter! They are very dishonest! Your item is coming direct from China, and will take at least 2 months to arrive, if it arrives at all! I had a item recently never arrive, and got a bogus email from crooked Tophatter, saying it was delivered. They won't even say who the carrier was! Do not bid on their junk! Pay a couple dollars more, and buy your item from a local store, or buy it on a trusted site, such as eBay!
I had an issues with a shipper who kept saying my order had been delivered and when I reported this, it was resolved in a fast frame of time. I do think that when they have shippers who lie about a shipment delivery and it wasn't even shipment... they need to get rid of those shippers. I ordered something that I was really counted on and it was a big let down. But again, Tophatter has been GREAT to deal with.
Tophatter has been a wonderful site to buy Christmas presents, I got all of my shopping done useing this site, Highly recommended!
If I could give this place zero stars I would. You bid and win then pay. You get a delivery date that is a month or more from when you pay. That date comes and goes and you don't get what you paid for. When you contact Tophatter instead of a refund they give you credits on their site so you can bid bid on more items that you will NEVER GET. And even the credits are rarely the amount you actually paid.
I was very happy with Tophatter at 1st,. They have a lot of nice things & you can get them at a good price in the auctions. The only thing is a lot of the sellers on Tophatter will give false advertising so when you receive the item(s) you won, a lot of the times it's not what you read or seen in the description. If you plan on bidding on any items just make sure you know exactly what it is you are bidding on by the reviews of the item. It is the easiest & truest way to know about the items you are bidding on.
It's fun and easy. I love seeing what awesome deals I can get! And now they have all the ways to earn points and get credit to spend on auction items, love it!
I order stuff and it never shows up. The pictures of items you are bidding on end up looking 10x better than the actual product. They continuously change the arrival date. They mark an item as delivered when it fact they have not been delivered. They are getting just as bad as the Wish app and that is the exact reason I stopped using Wish. After I get (or don't get) the about 50 items I am waiting for I will be deleting this app
This company truly cares about there customers and they handle any issue you may have in a fast and professional manner to me this company has respect for there customers and the word I feel that represents this company would be integrity.
Answer: There is also the FEDERAL TRADE COMMISSION that can help with these types of problems
Answer: You have to read the descriptions. It will tell you if it's real or plated.
Answer: Do not deal with this company,,, all jewelery is crap n cheap
Answer: Tophatter will screw you over. Shop Amazon or overstock.
Answer: Good luck! Tophatter rippes off the sellers so they are not going to be very likely to return your money.
Answer: Justin you are absolutely correct. I find out the hard way. I had my own auction with nice AUTHENTIC designer items and cosmetics (Becca, Cargo, Smahbox, Too Faced, etc). I lost big time. $40 Cargo palette sold for $10; it cost me $15. Items that I started higher to cover my cost never sold. I still had to pay fees for the item being listed. A $200 Calvin Klein purse sold for $20; it cost me $80 wholesale. Run!
Answer: If you end up buying a few items from the same seller they can do a combined shipment but you rarely get the same buyer items since they only let the sellers sell 10 items a day. It is different for the sellers that have their own auctions.
Answer: You will notice the same names no matter the day, time etc. Bidding against you very often. Is it a coincidence? Personally I don't believe in coincidences.
Answer: Depends on what you are selling. Yes, a lot of items go unsold in the jewelry and accessories categories... as well as others. Coach and Michael Kors and other designer brands, not much goes unsold, because here's the catch - - you pay fees on the starting bid. TH wants everything to start at $1. So you get punished if you start higher as to not get screwed by a low purchase price. Say you buy a designer bag for $120. If you start that bag at $100, you're already paying over $10 in fees. **IF** you can manage to sell it for a profit, there are still the commission and bank fees. If you start it at $1, you're barely paying any listing fees but it might only sell for $80 (or less!). So, less fees, but you lost your ass on the item. It's messed up. Most sellers have put in their time to see if they can make a profit or to see if TH will change, but they all seem to end up leaving. I'm convinced the only ones who stay to sell there are the counterfeit or crappy quality sellers who are buying items for next to nothing, because that seems to be the only way to make a profit there these days. I would go the ebay route if you're looking to sell.
Answer: Yes! Sale of counterfeit items is prohibited. If you are concerned about the authenticity of an item purchased on the platform, you may return it for up to 30 days from delivery. See full details on our return policy here: http://tinyurl.com/h7xokwj.
