I absolutely love Shein and their clothes. The thing you need to pay attention to can sometimes be the sizes, make sure to messure before you order. Besides that it is a great onlineshop with good survice.

Delay in express order
September 28, 2017

It was mentioned that within 3-5 business days i would receive my order after paying Rs. 325 as extra charges over the normal price.
There is no contact of shein's customer care India.
I've continuously tried tracking my order and it says out for next station. Even after submitting ticket for cancellation and refund there is no reply.
Is there any chances of getting my refund?

Impressed again
September 27, 2017

I just bought another dress and I'm again impressed and happy. The dress fit perfectly the quality is great. Four stars only because the front is way more revealing then it should be. I had to add a small stitch to keep it closed but I could do it
So I didn't care.

I like to shop on-line to make shopping more convinient but this was a hassle. This site has been the worse ever. I got my order damaged and defective. I also, had placed other orders that canceled because they were out of stock because they don tract their sold quantity collectly. If you want to gamble with your money the casino is a better place, at least you will have fun! Also, they say that they inspect all their merchandise but they don't it comes from 3rd party vendor from all over and they mass buy. Just be careful with your money some things are pricey and not worth the cost. 1st and last time I order from them.

With the mixed reviews on this site, I thought that I would give SheIn a chance. Honestly I barely liked 3 things out of the 6 that I ordered. Most of their clothing items are made with polyester - ugh! One of the sweaters that I purchased didn't even have a hem on it with the bottom edge fraying! Does China not use cover-stitches? I don't know. Point is I wasn't satisfied and when I calculated the manufacturer cost, it totally wasn't worth the buck. Oh well, moving on to another clothing site, xoxo.

Cute, trendy clothes to really good prices! The quality is good as well, sometimes you should consider sizing up. The shipping time (to Norway at least) is a little long, but it's worth the wait! :)
