Total Scam
March 19, 2022

Ordered a blue jacket, received a product that was two sizes too small, material was color faded in some spots. Requested refund but was informed I would have to refund to China, which expense was more than the jackets value. Paypal complaint is pending.

Zero stars really
March 18, 2022

Not a safe place to shop! They are one of those sites that has a lot to offer, but it's of really poor quality. From personal experience they sent the wrong sized item & then would not exchange it. After weeks of emails & photos of the item the only resolution they offered was A small percentage of rewards to go towards another purchase. I highly suggest you shop elsewhere.

I was going to order solar lights from this website, but I've never seen such poor, unsatisfied reviews. I feel bad for all the customers who gave this company a chance. Sadly most of the decent reviews are about refunds and returns. I think I'll pass.

Sizes and Returns
March 17, 2022

Sizes are not even close to accurate. Buy 2 sizes up. Returns are impossible. "Must be returned to China" with a LONG wait for credit (when item was clearly shipped out of New York).
