July 16, 2018

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.

Should be five star
July 15, 2018

Very happy with all purchases received except three and got unexpected refund on one of those (wrong size sent). The other two are lights for car wheels that arrived damaged ( battery exploded) and do not work as they said they did, and the last was a ring that in the photo the band looked solid whrn in reality it was not.

Dissatisfied with products

A distribution company should be behind their products they offer - I received some good ones but receiving broken, missing pieces and products not shown as presented is not right.

Good site but be careful.
July 13, 2018

Careful of what? Overbidding. I've seen many wins where people pay more then Amazon.

Be patient of slow delivery because almost all the companies are sending from China. The companies usually get the item in the mail within 8 hours. So the literal slow boat from China is real. Let's not forget customs either.

I'm guessing many sellers are employees at the factory trying to make a few extra bucks from a production run for the company. There also appears to be the practice of accepting pre-orders letting them build up for a week or two. I've always gotten my order just much later then the usual slow boat. To be fair the fine print does say delivery time a full 30 days out.

Quality wise most of the items have been middle range. With the odd exception of cheap and high quality seen. If you like an item buy it again while you can. Once production is over you will be stuck paying more.

There is a saying:
You can have it cheap,
You can have quality,
You can have it fast,
Pick 2 or expect to pay extra.

Tophatter caters to the first two.

Hi AJ,

Thank you for taking the time out of your day to leave a review, much appreciated.

In terms of overbidding, we definitely encourage shoppers to read the item description and determine what is a fair and reasonable price to pay for the items that they are bidding on. Bidders decide how high they are willing to bid, and can stop bidding at any time.

I definitely understand wanting what you paid for to arrive as soon as possible and we are working to improve 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.

Yes, but...
July 13, 2018

I have purchased several Items on this site,... be careful... several items are overpriced, even at $2, $3, $4 plus shipping. You really need to investigate before purchasing. I saw bidders buying silver at $20 plus for a gram of sterling. That is worth $. 54. Silver is about $16.50 an oz, a gram is 1/2500 th of an oz and even if it were an oz, why would you pay $20 for $16 worth of silver. Another con, German Silver isn't silver, it is an industry term for a metal mixture that contains no silver, worth about $. 03/oz they sell this for $6 to $20 for a 1 oz bar. Really, buyer beware!

July 13, 2018

I love to browse, find something cute or useful then set a reminder when it is available for auction. It is fun! Mostly I look at the jewelry but plan to branch out into other categories. Prices are soooooo good. Can afford to pick up a few pieces instead of just one for the same price. New favorite site!
