Before I relate my experiences with Gamiss so far, my advice is to measure yourself carefully and check product description for proper measurements, since the chart isn't standard and varies from seller to seller (my items arrived from different places in the world). Also read the respective reviews to learn what other users are saying about the product.
My first order (RR**************) was a bit of a hit and miss. The blouse looked lovely, the fabric felt nice and needs no ironing (which is a bonus). It was nicely finished except for the inner hem on the collar which wasn't sewn enough, so it popped out. But had an awkward fit. Nothing at all form-fitting like the picture, no shape whatsoever. I felt like I was wearing a bag. Need to make some adjustments.
My second order (RR**************) was a gift for my husband. A stylish black double breasted peacoat, nice fit, good finish, warm enough for Fall/Spring. The only "but" was it seems it was finished in a hurry, since I had to cut open all the button holes. It's a really nice item, I quite like it and so did he.
My third order (R**************) was a red coat for myself. I actually had order one of these coats via Amazon some time back, and was so happy with it that I wanted it in another color. They didn't have my size in red, so I found the same coat at Gamiss and ordered it (again measuring myself carefully and comparing sizes). What I received looked like the same coat but the fabric was much thinner, the hood was small, and the belt loops were placed too high up. However, it is a nicely finished coat, but it was definitely not the same product I had purchased before from a different site, even though the images were exactly the same.
Overall, Gamiss is worth it. It offers good quality affordable items, but you will only find them if you take the time to browse and choose carefully. I can't stress enough, check size charts and your own measurements before you make a decision. Shipping varies, depending on where the item comes from. Some of mine were fairly quick, in comparison to what I used to wait for items via AliExpress.
I have not had to return any of my items, since the faults can be fixed with a few adjustments, so I can't say how the return process works.
My suggestions:
- The site should clearly state the shipping fees for each item in the description, instead of knowing them only at the end of the purchase.
- Items out of stock should also be removed from the listings as soon as they are unavailable to make it easier to browse.
- Ability to message or ask questions directly to others who have purchased something we are wanting to get.
