My Pomegranate seeds says that they were delivered February 24, but I still have not received them. I am not sure what to do to remedy this, since it has been over a week past the supposed delivery date, and I was looking so forward to receiving them and getting them planted

Hi Croce, thank you for taking the time to write your review and share your experience.
Unfortunately, we don't offer the ability for buyers and sellers to directly communicate with each other through an unstructured format. I do see that you contacted support 7 months ago in regards to the instructions. I'm sorry if you did not get those responses.
I can suggest researching the watches on the internet, where instructions in English should be provided.
Thank you!
Great variety of merchandise. Great quality. Great and fast shipping, Quick response to questions, issues or returns.
Thank you for your review, Janet. We are delighted to know you are enjoying all the features Tophatter has to offer.

It was good, I liked all I bought except both pairs of earrings came with one prong bent. They are pretty though so I am happy.
Thank you, Pamela, for sharing your experience and writing your review. We're happy to know you have been pleased while shopping on Tophatter.
I think that Tophatter as a whole is great. They do need to police the stores and people a little more. Example Ordered Dec 7th got it end of February. No call for that.
Lonnie, thank you for writing your review.
I'm terribly sorry to hear your item took awhile to arrive. There was a long delay resulting in some orders shipping from overseas getting lost in transit over the holidays. This has since been resolved with the shipping carriers.
Thank you kindly for your patience!
I have made many purchases through Tophatter and absolutely love the tracking feedback for everything I purchase.
There is a huge variety of items on offer at any one time and if you're not successful bidding on an item it usually becomes available again within a short space of time.
Customer support is absolutely excellent - a lot of companies would benefit from training with these guys.
Give this site a try and you will keep coming back for more.
Thank you, Brian, for taking the time to write your review. We appreciate your thoroughness and for being a great part of the Tophatter community.
I found this site to be very entertaining and fun! Bids go really fast; doesn't take days to find out if you won a bid. In the few weeks I have been using this site it seems that they are adding a bigger variety of products to the auction.
Brenda, we appreciate you taking the time to write you review. Thank you for your continued support.
I have received 21 items from Tophatter, and have given 5 stars to almost all of them, the two items I didn't, received 4 stars. I have been very happy with the quality, and the looks of the items, and the value has been great! I just wish I could find the area to go to read reviews! I have reviewed every item I have received, but I have never been able to find where the reviews are located. I think it should be easy to find them, and I have spent time searching, and still haven't. That's the reason I give the website 4 stars instead of 5. Otherwise, I have been very happy!
Thank you kindly for your review, Lynn!
At this time we don't display comments from product ratings but instead show the aggregate star rating and number of ratings. If a product doesn't have a star rating, it means this is a newly added product and it doesn't have any reviews yet.
We are working toward bringing product rating comments to the platform in a future update.
Answer: There is also the FEDERAL TRADE COMMISSION that can help with these types of problems
Answer: You have to read the descriptions. It will tell you if it's real or plated.
Answer: Do not deal with this company,,, all jewelery is crap n cheap
Answer: Tophatter will screw you over. Shop Amazon or overstock.
Answer: Good luck! Tophatter rippes off the sellers so they are not going to be very likely to return your money.
Answer: Justin you are absolutely correct. I find out the hard way. I had my own auction with nice AUTHENTIC designer items and cosmetics (Becca, Cargo, Smahbox, Too Faced, etc). I lost big time. $40 Cargo palette sold for $10; it cost me $15. Items that I started higher to cover my cost never sold. I still had to pay fees for the item being listed. A $200 Calvin Klein purse sold for $20; it cost me $80 wholesale. Run!
Answer: If you end up buying a few items from the same seller they can do a combined shipment but you rarely get the same buyer items since they only let the sellers sell 10 items a day. It is different for the sellers that have their own auctions.
Answer: You will notice the same names no matter the day, time etc. Bidding against you very often. Is it a coincidence? Personally I don't believe in coincidences.
Answer: Depends on what you are selling. Yes, a lot of items go unsold in the jewelry and accessories categories... as well as others. Coach and Michael Kors and other designer brands, not much goes unsold, because here's the catch - - you pay fees on the starting bid. TH wants everything to start at $1. So you get punished if you start higher as to not get screwed by a low purchase price. Say you buy a designer bag for $120. If you start that bag at $100, you're already paying over $10 in fees. **IF** you can manage to sell it for a profit, there are still the commission and bank fees. If you start it at $1, you're barely paying any listing fees but it might only sell for $80 (or less!). So, less fees, but you lost your ass on the item. It's messed up. Most sellers have put in their time to see if they can make a profit or to see if TH will change, but they all seem to end up leaving. I'm convinced the only ones who stay to sell there are the counterfeit or crappy quality sellers who are buying items for next to nothing, because that seems to be the only way to make a profit there these days. I would go the ebay route if you're looking to sell.
Answer: Yes! Sale of counterfeit items is prohibited. If you are concerned about the authenticity of an item purchased on the platform, you may return it for up to 30 days from delivery. See full details on our return policy here: http://tinyurl.com/h7xokwj.

Hi Brenda, thank you for writing your review.
I've gone ahead and opened a dispute for your missing item (order #22406154).
When an "item not received" issue is reported, our staff will make every effort to get a valid tracking number from the seller confirming that they have shipped the item to you; however in the event that the seller does not ship the item, a refund will be processed.
You will receive updates on your dispute via email.
Thank you!
