Shame on Tophatter, they are the biggest scammer in America. They sold me women's ring for $19.00, with fiction MSRP price $799.00 this piece of $#*! Tophatter bought from Aliexpress for $2.00. I found out Tophatter buy items from Aliexpress very cheap and later they selling them on auction with fake MSRP price, using it as a lure to attract stupid naive customers. The first of all, if Tophatter is the serious company, I wondered, why they don't have a phone number. I am really upset, goodbye forever. Tophetter is a big trickster.
Thank you for sharing your experience with us, Faro. I'm terribly sorry that your overall experience did not meet expectations.
The Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price — also known as “struck out” price – is basically a recommended selling price that is set by the seller based on the value a seller believes their products worth is. In an auction format, we want buyers to have a fun experience that they are in control of. We urge buyers' to review the item description prior to bidding. This allows the buyer to decide if the price is fair or reasonable. Reviewing the item description is key in helping buyers' determine how high they are willing to bid with the option to stop bidding at any time if the MSPR or overall item description doesn't reflect what you feel is reasonable, fair or feel the item simply will not fit your needs. The beauty of the platform (or the beauty of bidding) is the decision is yours to make.
However, if you are not happy with the item you have received, you have the option to return any item for up for 30 days from delivery, per our Buyer Protection: http://tinyurl.com/jeura4f. That said, know we do have you, the buyer in mind. We are always striving to make your user experience as smooth and enjoyable as possible. To that end, we value suggestions from those people who use our product most, please know we hear your concerns about MSRP and again, we are always working to improve your experience.
Also, we apologize we do not have phone support right now, but we are more than happy to assist you with any questions or concerns by email. Please see this link for full details: http://bit.ly/2FgzknX

I have saved so much money on things that I wanted but could not afford before or just knew that they were asking to much for an item mainly because they think people are ignorant when it comes to choosing a place to buy from! Tophatter is a great place to get items you want or need! I recommend it highly to anyone who wants to save money and have fun doing it

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.
