Brand new Tissot Watch didn't work.
December 30, 2021

I bought a Tissot watch from Ashford as a gift. It worked for approximately 24 hours after the package was opened. I contacted customer support and they insisted it needed a new battery and instructed me to take it to a jeweler.

Jeweler attempted to replace the battery and determined that the existing battery was fully charged and something else is wrong internally. The secondhand ticks back and forth, but does not go round and round.

Contacted Ashford customer service a second time. They stated that I must contact the manufacturer to make a warranty claim. I asked them to email me the contact information on how to make a claim. I never received anything.

The packaging and the watch itself were very impressive. Too bad the watch only displays the correct time twice a year. When I saw the price online, I thought it was too good to be true. Such is life, you get what you pay for. Buyer beware, they sell defective watches and don't stand behind what they sell.

Hoy realize mi segunda compra en Ashford y muy satisfecha con los artículos y precios en esta segunda compra me ofrecieron un cupón de 10 dls. Pero a la hora de ir a pago no me acepto el envío gratuito y la compra era de 110 dls.
Pienso que fue por el cupón y me cobraron 5.99 por el envio o sea NO fue gratis... deberían de respetar el envío gratuito.

*** NOT RECOMMENDED ***
September 2, 2021

Placed order for 2 sunglasses, one came defective. Returned it. Placed another order to get a good one. A defective item came again. Customer service didn't want to provide a prepaid return label. Conclusion: It their stock consists of aftermarket/used/refurbished merchandise.

Hello, Thank you for your review. We do apologize for any inconvenience. We do see we did offer a return for the item since it was our error. Regrettably, since we do not charge the duties and taxes, we are unable to refund you for them. However, these fees are 100% refundable if you make a claim with your local customs agency or UPS directly, here is all the information for getting your import fees back. https://www.cbsa-asfc.gc.ca/import/courier/crp-prio-eng.html We, again, do apologize for any inconvenience.

Ordered two watches over the course of about 9 months. Both were priced well. Shipped and arrived fast. Both were in perfect new condition. Can't say that for other online watch sellers. Only wish they had more of a selection of brands but that's probably why their prices are so good.

Be aware they might be selling fake or counterfeit product. There are three major issue on the one I bought from this website. They refused to admit that the glasses has issue. They said the one is as perfect as originally made. Please be cautious, lower price is a trap.

Hello,

Thank you for yourreview We do apologize for any inconvenience. We have rechecked with the returns department and they advised us:
"It's where the layer is held and then cut during manufacturing. All of the models have those marks. Some are cleaner than others, but still there."

We do apologize but as the model is designed this way, we are unable to refund the original shipping fee.

Again, We do apologize for any inconvenience.

Best regards,

Buyer Beware!
May 23, 2020

Purchased a few watches from Ashford. Received the package and forgot it in my garage. During the Pandemic came across the box, opened it and 2 of the watches were not in there. The boxes were there, but the actual watches were missing. Having purchased from them before, I never even bothered checking to see if anything was missing. Lesson Learned. I will be checking my orders as soon as they come from now on. When I contacted them, they were very nice, but provide no help. The literally told me to pound sand but in a more professional way.

Hello,

Thank you for your view. We do apologize for any inconvenience this has caused you. WE verified with our warehouse that all the items shipped back in October. Generally, if there is a report of missing or damaged merchandise, we will open a claim with the carrier and they will investigate what happened.

However, since 6 months passed after delivery before any reports were created, we are unable to open this investigation or offer any recourse.

Again, we do apologize for any inconvenience this has caused you. If you have any other questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact customer service.

Best regards,

Give them a shot
May 21, 2020

I bought a Hamilton knowing the bad reviews. I gave ashford.com a chance coming from a marketing and sales back ground knowing bad reviews are more likely to appear than positive reviews. The watch was listed at a great price I was able to get even a better price with a promo code I bought 1 day shipping to California their was an issue with UPS but I was able to get it bye the 2nd day. Overall watch is working great and looks amazing. Also there are some YouTubers who break down Ashford.com and discribe their experiences, which was a great help making my overall decision. I look forward to add more watchs to my collection via Ashford.com
