I ordered a Garmin 2555 LMT. Unfortunately, it did not come with Traffic. After contacting Factory Outlet Store and then Garmin (twice) and following their instructions, the unit did not receive traffic from Maine to Florida. The unit is actually 2555LM (no "T"). I would not recommend buying a GPS with traffic from this store. Buyer beware.

I ordered 2 water filters for a samsung refidgerator, the picture on the site was of a genuine samsung filter when I received the filters (3 weeks after promised date) they were 2 different brands of generic replacements. I called customer support and of course was told the pictures were for illustration purposes only. Both of the filters leaked and were useless, had to go to Home Depot and get a Samsung filter. I would not buy from this site again, use Amazon and get the real item for a little more.
I received my refrigerator water filter, it does not install and I looked it over, it has a flaw in the area where it connects not allowing it to fit. I will not return it because of the charges for restocking and shipping cost, it would not be worth my time or effort. They sell defective merchandise and possibly on purpose. Factory Outlet Store will not be getting anymore business from me.
I have purchased replacement blades and razors from this site many times. They have a very good selection to choose from. The site is easy to navigate and your order will be shipped promptly.
I ordered a specialized phone and was PROMISED 2 day shipping. Now, I find that I'm getting the product at the same time that it would have arrived without EXTRA shipping charges! I asked for a price adjustment, but was told they "could not do that". NEVER buy from this vendor! I've learned my lesson well!
Yes, after I placed an order I put that I wanted the battery to go to an address in NY state, but that the billing address was Florida. They gave a total of 12.90 I paid that, they turned around and took. 88 more cents out for tax about 10 days later and never let me know about it. Why would that not have been taken out when order placed and why would they just go ahead and use your card again with out saying anything to you?
I love all of the neat things to buy, however I wish that phones in general today didn't cost half a grand! But I do love this site, which is a safe google site! I will be buying from this site again and again!
Finding the vacuum cleaner bags was easy and speedy. The order process could not have been simpler.
As the rating says, stay away. Pay the extra dollars for a good reliable seller. Poor merchandise. Customer Service is worse than the merchandise. I shop on line all the time and this is the worst experience I've encountered. Read all of the bad reviews and that is what you are subject to.
Ordered a new Garmin gps, paid extra for 3-5 day delivery. Two weeks later, still waiting.
Very pleased with the design of the site. Easy to maneuver through and found what I needed quickly at a reasonable price.
Emailed offer of 10% discount and then tell you later, buried in fine print well into ordering process, that the discount only applies if you order $100 plus worth of mdse.
These are the stupidest people I have ever dealt with. Well my unit was defective ( not their fault) I call and opt to speak with a technical person that knows nothing at all. He tells me that he is going to ship me a box to return my item and will e-mail me the phone number of a technical person. Well none of that happened, my window to return the item was ready to expire so I call for a RMA number and the guy tells me that they don't send boxes for returns so I verify my e-mail address to find out the bozo that was supposed to send boxes changed it to be wrong. I know it was right when I purchased the item because I got all of the correspondence. One month has lapsed and all I have is headaches.
I ordered batteries twice for my Droid X2. Neither will hold a charge for 24 hours. If you actually use the phone or text, it's dead in about 4 hours. They must be selling old shelf batteries or used. DO NOT BUY from them!
These people are nothing but "Lying Scammers" pushing knock offs & counterfeit product. I ordered a new Toshiba battery to replace the 5 year old one in my laptop. What I received was a used no name battery with a different model # that fit. After charging overnight several times it would only hold charge 5 or 10 mins until it finally wouldn't work at at all. It came without paperwork or phone #. Just labels on outside of box. I got the phone # from my credit card charge & called. The rep. Emailed me a return label & said there would be no shipping or re-stock fees & a full refund. Yeah right, it cost me $6.70 shipping to return their bad battery. I requested a refund & was told by the rep to just pitch it & I would still get a full refund. Too late it was already shipped. The rep. Said to call back & a supervisor could help with the shipping refund. The supervisor from what I could understand kept saying no refund unless exchanged. So I'm back using my 5 yr old battery by keeping it plugged in. I'm out of $26.90 + a $6.70 shipping fee with a full refund promise of $26.90. How do they get away with this? People serve time for less.
Never again!
Wish I'd read this before I ordered from Factory Outlet. Com They are rip offs and any one that makes a good comment probable works for them! Lee
I had a great shopping experience, until the end. They tease you with $100.00 reward. I was thinking it might be a gift card of some sort, but no it's 4 free magazine subscriptions of which I chose zero! Sorry but this made my rating drop by two stars.
Ordered a screen protector today for the GPS I recently purchased from this site. GPS purchased was as described, good price and was received in a very reasonable amount of time. Would highly recommend this site as a place to do business with. I will certainly be back when they have something I want.
Answer: I strongly recommend not to buy anything from this place.
Answer: But these things locally. I don't trust this place. I bought phones which were refurbished but NEVER stated as such. One stopped working a month after receipt! Pay a few $& more and stay away from this place.
Answer: That's a question no one can answer for me. Tried calling and now I have to wait 10 days for their investigation
