Jewelry was fine.
Battery or electric ones don't work at all my last 2 pieces went in the trash.
Shirt I won, is very cheap.
Its is not worth my time to send it back.
Ordered a lovely white sapphire tennis bracelet from this site, after receiving notification it had been delivered I contacted them to say I had received nothing as yet. After waiting another another 3 wks I heard back to say they were looking into the case. After waiting another two and half months I wrote back again to them and was finally told after another week no refund would be issued, as the seller had a USPS tracking number. No help for me at this end here to try and track that... be aware that their Resolutions Department is as dodgy as anything and unless you keep annoying them you don't even get a response.
Very happy with my on-line shopping with Tophatter.
I have tried to communicate with your company, and no one will ever return my calls. Poor customer service. I have purchased over 150 items, and I have tried to communicate with your company, that I did not receive several items, but no one seems to care. I think that I am going to stop dealing with your company, for that reason.
The products are great. I have received many compliments on the items I wear. The people I gave these items as gifts to were delighted.
Have bought several Items off the sitefor Christmas gifts, rings appear to be well made and sized appropriately, other items appear to be as advertised
This is a fun site to bid on items and of course win! It is addictive
This purchase was fine. Others not so they should tell you it's getting shipped from China! And you can't track it!
I bought several items and all was in good condition. Only had 1 bad experience, I received a ring that was broken, but other wise everything I bought was perfect.
I have had an overall great experience on using the Tophatter ap... You can get some excellent deals - you just have to know approximately what the item is actually worth and refuse to bid above that amount. It is great fun and there have only been a very few items that I was not pleased with and Tophatter has so far stood behind me as a customer with great support staff.
But customer not happy with. Accidentally bid on product. And request to cancel and being asked to pay. Not being removed from acct.
I do not have one item that I ordered that was worth the price. I know items are not expensive, however S & H is pricey enough. Perhaps I am wrong but I still expect quality if that is what is stated. Anything shipped from China is not worth the envelope it comes in. Within 2 weeks of normal wear rings are tarnished and plating completely gone, I ordered sterling silver earrings with white stones and one did not close. I have unsubscribed from your site and would not recommend it to anyone. I also has a hard time to get a &7.00 refund for an item ordered but never received or shipped as even order tracking indicated.
With the auction format, it is hard to review the products that you are bidding on. Not always sure quantity or exactly details of product within the bidding process.
Every thing I have purchased from Tophatter has been exactly as seen in the pictures and I have been pleased with every thing I have bought from this site.
I check this site daily to see what's new. Live it.
Returning an item procedure unfair with some vendors.
Some of the items i purchase was ok some are not the watch is missing sims and the note book no sound but the rest is fine
I have always been very happy with Top Hatters prices quality and delivery quickly
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.
