I luv this site. I actually get addicted to this site. I even got my grandsons (7 &10) hooked on it.
Great products, easy bidding. Just watch postage costs. Items I have purchased have been good quality. I am very happy with tophatter. I would recommend this site to everyone.
I have bid on Tophatter a lot I have not had any problems with them. I have had trouble with sellers, not getting merchandise but the refunds are very fast and they have all been from China.
In my opinion this is a great site
Great prices and so far good merchandise
I have tell all my friends about this site
Wonderful, shopping for gifts at anytime. Ships fast and easy. Items are changed so you can have a one stop shop in such a fast amount of time. Gifts are for family, friends, emergency on hand gifts. Perfect.
Have purchased from this site prior to my recent purchase. Would recommend this site to friends and family...
1. Ordered a 1080 dash cam... picture is worse then 720 and doesnt work at low light levels while driving at night.
2. "Night-vision" binoculars are nothing but cheap dollar-store binoculars & nothing more.
3. Android 7" tablet PC has a corrupted battery & continuously crashes... probably an Amazon return re-sold to me - GARBAGE!
The variety of products and the prices along with the bidding is a great experience and just is enjoyable.
I luv this website! It's fast, easy & convenient! I recommend it to everyone. Need a last minute gift? Tophatter will meet your needs! A great place to shop!
I have had several bad experiences with the products, but with Tophatter itself they have been wonderful!
Literally, most of what I purchased didn't work and were thrown away. Sorry, but I have learned a hard lesson with how much I bought.

I have purchased some items that were not as depicted in the photographs and description. Earrings were smaller than shown and ruby necklace was poor quality. Cloudy stone with chips missong
I started using Tophatter about 5-6 months ago and did practically all my holiday shopping on it. Everything I got was high quality, delivered when promised and everyone loved my gifts - looked expensive but with Tophatter, highly affordable. Recommended it to my friends and family.
I am still waiting for items i ordered in early december. I will not order again until my items arrive
I didn't received an item and after several weeks Dec16-jan18 my item never arrived I inquired several times only to be told I have to track my order instead of the sender I feel I was ripoff twice. This is a big issue to me and on that note I will never use or recommend this site
Overall other than the wait for items this is a great place to shop. The items are pretty spot on when I open them.
I have purchased over 60 items from Tophatter and found them to be reliable and consistent with a very responsive customer service department.
I will continue buying from them in the future. Top notch!
Love the selection. All kinds of merchandise to choose from at great prices. Love to be able to bid. Also love the jewerly. Looks so real at a low price.
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.
