  • Puma

12/31/17

I had to deduct one star because of the pricing issues at the puma site. Sometimes the outlet had the item for far less while it was sold higher on the internet site. I called for a price match and they would not do it but gave me 20% (I already had received my order). You can return items and get your money back, but how inconvenient is that. Just price match with your self and your competitors PUMA! Once again you have to do your homework with this site and make sure it is offering the best price. Good products and a wide variety of puma goods including collaborations. Update: Puma had to change its web site to us.puma.com. If you go to the old site it was taken over by scammers.

They have interesting products and sometimes exclusive items, but they often charge more, and do not discount shipping. I would shop with them more often if the pricing was better. The four stars is for the variety of products offered.

https://www.stuartweitzman.com/home/ is the real link. They have OK prices and sometimes the sales are fantastic. But they dont always have the lowest prices, and sometimes they will sell out and you will not get your sale item. Use the store locator on the site and call the stores to make sure you get what you want. You can also have the store order off this site for you to increase your chances of getting what you want. I took off a star, because they could discount a bit more!

  • Hunter Boots

They have really great products, but often not at the best prices. You have to shop around before you order. The site this year 2017 is offering less variety of products. 2015 the offerings where much better and they had a great sale.

  • ASOS

This site has a mix of clothing for women of every size and age. Do not be fooled by the youthful appearance of the site, because it has something for everyone. College students gets discount and that comes in handy during sales. I live this site for clothing and accessories. Top brands make special items for the site... it is just the best. One thing no 800 number as they are in Europe and do not answer calls. Twitter is the best contact method! (2017) I have to say they are changing and are not responsive to complaints as they once were- so I took a star away. They are changing not for the better. They most improve consumer service and being more responsive to complaints.

Tip for consumers:
UK sizing most often so know your european size. Ask questions via Facebook or twitter if you have questions about an item.

  • Best Buy

3/26/15

I wait for their sales and I looks for specials. I shop in store as well.

  • Kmart

3/26/15

I like to get kitchen supplies and underwear from Kmart. I find they have excellent electronics and I like get money back for purchases. I would have given five stars, but they often only have one of something and you have to keep calling the store. They don't answer the phone or answer it well when they do.

  • Stamina Products

1/27/12

4.5 Stars is what I wish I could give this site. I would have given five stars but they tend to be more pricy than their authorized dealers, however, they have all the products you would want in the line. I purchased their pilates which is very well made like the studio level products. They charge more so as not to compete with the vendors, but they do have infrequent sales. This site is also a great resource for stamina products and supplies. I really do love the majority of the products on this site and I know the items are really great!

  • Dillard's

1/13/12

Dillards has Ten Star products both online and in store. I have shopped the stores while on business and they have great quality items. I take stars away for the shipping, return shipping cost, and the failure to have coupon codes often. I have never had an issue with Dillards ( I used a coupon code and had no need to return) as they often have limited edition items which only Dillards carries. However, the coupon code made the sale possible other wise the item would have cost an additional 11.95 and returns are on you. Macy's and others make online shopping with Dillards not necessary- as they are much better with shipping cost and returns. I will continue to shop brick and mortar Dillards and only online with codes. Sale prices are not the best as Dillards is not a competitive in pricing.

  • Victoria's Secret

1/9/12

Five Star shopping (most times) Three Star shipping rates. I have shopped with VS since they started their web site. I have purchased everything from leather, evening dresses, party dresses, limited edition clothing, and lingerie. I loved their turtle neck body suits which I still own, and I wish they still carried now. I loved their french body suits that look so great with dress pants. I dislike the shipping rates.

  • Facebook

1/7/12

Be careful as facebook is a great place to get a stalker. Never put any personal information on facebook as you open your self to indentity fraud.

  • Popsugar Supports Domestic Abuse

1/5/12

Nice site to visit for fashion information. Pop can also send stories and points of interest for fashionista's the follow the trends. Moreover, it has all the celebrity scoop you may want... it is very cute!

  • Target

1/3/12

You have to be really fast at ordering online with target.com as items with disappear from your confirmations. The missoni for target mess is the best example of what is wrong with the target online system. I do have to say I have had more good experiences with target than bad, but special sales require extra efforts to get what you want. Target gets high marks for the selections alone... it is hard to be mad at target.

  • SideReel

1/3/12

Good site for finding shows and watching them with just a little effort. One must be careful with this site as it will use links that might have suspect content... just report those links to sidereel and never sign into them. Other than the time limit I have not issue with sidereel it is a good free way to find and watch episodes that you miss.

HSN

I would give HSN five stars, but surepost shipping knock them down a few notches. I like the pretty good prices, selection, and the customer service- HSN has different items a little something for everyone. Surepost is the worst concept as you have UPS deliver the HSN package to the USPS for the delivery to the house. This hand off can add days to the delivery process- if you get the package at all. I really have to see something at HSN that is nowhere else for me to go through that surepost craziness.

  • RetailMeNot

1/2/12

Use to be really good with a ton of online coupons, lately not so much so. I wish retailmenot had more offerings, but it is a must got to site before shopping on the net. To get the best price you have to stop here first for the most reliable coupons.

  • eBay

12/31/11

I sometimes shop on ebay as ebay has everything you could ever want at some point or another. I have a healthy fear of shopping on ebay and I always use PayPal. There is a ton of fraud on ebay so that is why only four stars. What makes ebay so great is that it is a great shopping resource. I go to ebay before shopping elsewhere so as to obtain as much information about the item I want. Great pictures and detailed information is available on ebay which makes it one of the best shopping resources.

  • YOOX

12/31/11

I love the items on this site, pricing could be better at times, and the refund process is slow as a sloth. Yoox.com could be the best reseller discount site but these issue rated a MeH!, but the selections got them to the four star mark. Those shopping with Yoox needs to write to them with every order, and demand better service for the prices charged. Automate the return process and give me my refund faster (as I have more shopping to do). Other than that I like what yoox.com offers and I use the web site as a reference point when shopping.

  • DSQUARED2

12/29/11

Great dsquared2 high end couture products and good prices. The prices could be better, customer is nice but limited, and returns processing takes forever. If yoox.com ( yes they run the site) would fix returns and price match it would be five stars. If you shop with them drop them a line and tell them to get with it on pricing and returns. Other than these issues the products are fabulous dquared2 hot off the runway, and they are fierce and super hard to find.

  • Morristown Mini

I have had great results ordering from their site and they have the best prices in the NYC metro area.
