WAY to many emails
August 2, 2018

Way to many emails, annoying... I can check Tophatter when I want to shop, I don't need to be reminded CONSTANTLY about specials... Just about ready to delete it completely... Not worth the hassles of the email notices all the time. Products are ok, about what you would expect for being made in China. Shipping is OK, again many of the items come from China, so two weeks waiting time is about normal.

Hi Aneta,

Thank you for your review. We hope every shopper will be delighted with every purchase, but understand that not everything can be perfect. If for any reason you’re not completely satisfied, you can request to return an item for up to 30 days from the date of delivery. A full refund of the original price paid will be processed upon return of the item in its original condition. To request a return, visit My Orders, click the item, then click Return Item.

Shoppers also have the option to rate their delivered items. Rating items is important because 1.) other buyers will be able to review the average rating on products before they bid, and 2.) items rated consistently low will automatically stop being scheduled on the platform. For these reasons we encourage you to rate the products you have purchased, although doing so is not required.

Kind Regards,
Angelique

I was very skeptical of this app when I got it. After a few bids that I won, I was able to see that you really can't get wonderful products at great prices. It's good to read the reviews and not rush into things.

Hi Randy,

Thank you for your review. We want you to be pleased with all of your purchases on Tophatter and I'm sorry that hasn't been the case.

Tophatter is a Marketplace that connects buyers with sellers (https://tophatter.com/terms), and we rely on sellers to provide accurate information about every item; however, if you discover a listing has been misrepresented in any way, we offer excellent Buyer Protection (https :// tophatter. Com/topics/Buying/subtopics/Buyer%20Issues/questions/Is%20there%20Buyer%20Protection%3F) As part of our quality assurance process, our system detects and applies strong penalties to sellers with higher than average return rate, and individual items exceeding the rate will no longer be scheduled on our platform.

If for any reason you’re not completely satisfied, you can request to return an item for up to 30 days from the date of delivery. A full refund of the original price paid will be processed upon return of the item in its original condition. To request a return, visit My Orders, click the item, then click Return Item.

For any problematic items, please contact our dedicated support team here http://tinyurl.com/j8eo7hu for help getting the issue resolved.

Awesome!
August 1, 2018

Most items arrive quick and match photos! Don't like ratings notification on EVERYTHING you buy. If something doesn't work when you buy it, it cost more to ship it back than you paid for it. The site is easy to navigate, and customer service answers questions quickly.

Be Nice To You
July 31, 2018

I joined Tophatter sometime ago, but I didn't bid on any auctions for the longest time. When I finally did, it was easy, it was quick, it was fun, and it felt really good to get a package in the mail. I've never had a problem with any products, and there are always new items to bid on. Join Tophatter and be nice, to you!

A full refund of the original price paid will be processed upon return of the item in its original condition. To request a return, visit My Orders, click the item, then click Return Item.

Tophatter will always process refunds for buyers upon receiving a valid tracking number from them indicating that the order has been returned to the seller. Tophatter offers Buyer Protection in the form of a 30-day Easy Return policy that will either: 1.) refund the buyer without return needed, 2.) provide the buyer with a prepaid return label, or 3.) present the buyer with the seller's address to return the item, paying for their own return postage with valid tracking number.

Shoppers also have the option to rate their delivered items. Rating items is important because 1.) other buyers will be able to review the average rating on products before they bid, and 2.) items rated consistently low will automatically stop being scheduled on the platform. For these reasons we encourage you to rate the products you have purchased, although doing so is not required.

Good deals but be sure you read actual descriptions of items before purchasing. Some issues with shipping as well so be prepared for longer than noted deliveries on some items.

I surely understand wanting what you paid for to arrive as soon as possible. Please know your voice is heard and we are working to improve your experience in terms of shipping times.

After you've purchased, you can click on any item from your My Orders page then click *Where's My Item?* to find the current status and timeline.

On Tophatter we have an extended ship time of 30 days domestically and 60 days for all international shipments. If the time-frames passes and you still haven’t received your item please contact our dedicated customer support team by visiting My Orders, clicking the item, clicking Order FAQs, then clicking Contact Support and completing the form detailing the issue.

Unsure about product description.
July 28, 2018

I love the process of bidding, its fun. I don't like the long delivery times from China, you would think that they are on the moon. Gold jewelry says 14k or 18k, but when ya get it no Jewelers mark to be found. Quality in question. Size is misleading, the pics on site look much larger than what ya get. Now don't get me wrong the things I got were pretty but I felt misled at points.
