I had my first order ever delivered to me. It was a sweater by POL white with flowers with over 5 or more small snags. Spent $39- not a fortune, but still should come without damages. It is the principle above all no matter the price tag.
It should not have that if new. I went to return it and it said I have to pay the $6 shipping, unless I want to keep the credit for another purchase. #1. Why would I trust another purchase when my only experience is this with damage. #2. Why should I be responsible for paying anything if they send a damaged item. When you do call, at 10 am when opens, they say they have a longer than expected hold time. You can hold, but after a few minutes they tell you to go contact customer support. You are hung up on. There is no waiting for the next person available. To make it seem real, they let you sit on the phone wasting your time. I am thinking they will not make it in business for long with poor customer service. I have seen other review and did not heed the warning because I saw good ones too. I also don't trust that I would get my money back. So, I would be out not only $ but the sweater too. ** Please consider this warning** I am a reasonable person with a good head on my shoulders. Not a good idea to try this company.

It is absolutely prohibited to buy from this site in foreign countries unconditionally. Don't believe what they write about being responsible for customs duties.

After arrival, the customs duty comes out and sends me an inquiry, and I just spend useless time not knowing what to do. The only answer is to return. It took about a month or more to return, and I spent over $300 on shipping from the purchase amount. I think that it includes round trip shipping +@.

I would like to discourage people worldwide from buying from this site unconditionally. Please don't buy anything.

I have sent multiple emails to return items that don't fit. No response to to request to return or exchange and they don no answer their phone. I am stuck with items that don not fit and no refund. I will be trying to get a refund through PayPal. I was a customer for 6 years and I will no longer be a customer. Go directly to the boutique and buy.

I'm a frequent online shopper and this first experience with Shoptiques is insulting.
The item, advertised as a new Tory Burch bag, is a showroom sample at the best and a 2nd hand mediumly-used item on average. It has clear discoloration on the body and wears on all four bottom corners. Interestingly, on the price tag inside the item, the price I paid in full was crossed out with a bright sharpie for "40%-off". Tried to call the customer service line for two days, it always "has extremely high call volume" and the call was cut off at 7 minutes 15 seconds. One associate did call back, bless her heart, and tried to find a solution with the "boutique" after reviewing the photo evidence- she disappeared ever since too.
I have no confidence in this company and regret to trust it.

Terrible customer service for returns
March 9, 2023

No one is responding to my emails to assist with a return as their provided instructions do not work. Buyer beware that you might not be able to return your items if they don't fit. I am currently returning on my own, hoping they process it, and filing a grievance through PayPal to attempt to recover my money. Will not be using this company again!

Unethical site harming small businesses
August 21, 2022

Site is awful. Middle man between a small business and consumer. Better going straight to the local business. No way to discuss issues or concerns. Verbally dismissive to shop owners and customers. If shops decide for any reason not to ship your items you're out of luck and dinged on your account and it's a large effort to get your money back if you get it back which I did not. It ends up being theft. I feel bad for the small businesses. Paying for items you don't receive. Stay away from the hassle and go shop locally without the middle man. In a world of online shopping as the main way to shop these days- you're better off shopping directly on the boutiques website and NOT through this app.

Took 10 days (FedEx) to get my shirt. Could not get tracking info. Website says "$6 Flat rate shipping", but charged me $8. I emailed customer service, which was overseas, and got no answer. They just told me it was on it way but never told me why the website has one price, but they charged me another. They also charge a $1.50 convenience fee. So basically $9.50 for shipping two states away. Shirt came rolled up in a ball. Wrinkles galore. I should have called around local boutiques to find this brand (and supported local) or done more research because Amazon sells this brand! I don't usually shop from sites I have never heard of but found a shirt in a small shop and when they didn't have my size, I took a screen shot of it and found it through Shoptiques. Should have googled a little more. Lesson learned. I am just now learning how they operate. I would have ordered directly from the boutique where it was shipped from if I would have found them earlier.

Great purchase
October 31, 2020
Updated review

So it took a while due to Covid but I got my Nobis coat finally.
Thanks to the team! I will buy again.

Date of experience: October 30, 2020

I'd ordered a very expensive coat from the brand Nobis Shelby parka 6 days ago and it is still not shipped nor do I get a tracking number. They say it's with their long time partner SCHWARTZ FINE FASHIONS, a Canadian store. After numerous emails I decided to call them and after some attempts I was promised they would contact SFF to see why it's not being shipped yet. And they would thereupon sent me the tracking number via email and which I used to contact them with numerous times.
I am still waiting for that email with tracking number.
I still have a little bit of hope but it's not a smooth online shopping experience and I shop a lot everywhere.
Let's see what happens and I will follow up with another post on how it ended and whether my expensive coat got delivered in due time or not at all.

Can't believe I have to give 1 star. I ordered some items back in June, finally got it Sept 30, I tried clothes on and contacted them to be returned. Clothes are shoddily made, not anything like what I ordered and the sizes are way off, my wife and I both went up 1 size when we ordered and probably should have gone up 2 sizes and they probably still wouldn't have fit. Haven't been able to get an address to return these too yet, they offer me a 5 dollar gift card and refuse to give me the address to return the crap to because they say the shipping will be too high. The return policy was contact them within 15 days for a full refund, pay the shipping back and they will credit that back to you. Well here it is 3 weeks later and I still can't get the address and they upped the offer today to 6 dollars... lets see the clothes cost 138... don't think I will accept 6 dollars.

Shoptique is a wonderful one stop shop for all your fashion needs. The items you find there are unique and very stylish. It's nice that you don't have to get on a plane to shop for basic fashion items.

The customer service team are super helpful and very friendly, especially when I had a few mix ups with my orders. They were ready to help and answer any questions I might have.

If you're looking for a place to stock up on all your fashion needs, look no further than Shoptique - you'll be happy you did.

Great customer service!
January 31, 2020

When I emailed CS about tracking info, a specific person (Caroline) not only emailed me back within 8 minutes (!) with full tracking info, but she included the aprox date of delivery in her email and asked if she can help with anything else. I mean, a response in less than 10 minutes! Every company could learn from Shoptiques CS!

My accessory store used Shoptiques POS. Small problems here and there... over the years the problems got so bad with such limited staff that i decided to leave and use Shopify. In 3 months my business has literally doubled month to month. I need to say that that the people who work there are sweet, but its a sinking ship I do not recommend using this platform

I have purchased multiple times from Shoptiques and found it to be a great experience. You can get the unique products anywhere else, and there are usually some amazing things for not that much money. Shipping is fast and convenient, no issues. Would definitely recommend.

I have been working with Shoptiques for the last 5 years and will continue to work with them for the foreseeable future. They always improve there offerings over time which is great! They make it really easy to sell online, they worry about the marketing and shipping. We just need to list products and we get orders.
