Very bad quality
December 20, 2019

You get what you pay for sure stands true with this site. Ordered a sunflower necklace, very cheap looking. Also ordered a Women's winter/autumn coat. Nothing but a lightweight hooded knit shirt. Ordered a 2X doubt it would fit my grand daughter who is a small/medium. Ordered a couple more items which have not come yet, can't wait to see what they look like. Did my Christmas shopping, now I have nothing to give, and no money to get anything else. Learned my lesson, will not shop here again.

Hi Rosalie,

Thank you for your review. I'm so sorry your items didn't meet your expectations. I know how disappointing and frustrating that is.

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.

Respectfully,
Angelique

Hi Karen,

Thank you for your review.

Tophatter is a Marketplace that connects buyers with sellers (https://tophatter.com/terms). Because we aren't in physical possession of the seller’s items we rely on the 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://tinyurl.com/yy6m335d 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.

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.

I was so excited, but as items started coming in clothes were way off in sizing, no boxes or instructions, poor quality, not apple product as ad stated, poor quality. It actually looked like junk from China as everything did come from China. Forever and always ring was very poor quality, outdoor lights did not work, talking hamster did not work, chip sealer did not work, dash cam did not work, antenna did not work. I was just really disappointed. They did however offer refund with no problems at all. Just won't be ordering from them anymore.

Having bought from this site for many years I am very aware that things are not made of the highest quantity, that doesn't mean that they are not good it just means you take a chance of something not working, having missing parts, no instructions, getting wrong size (I always size up by 3), and I've had to ask for refunds due the above mentioned issues. They have always been very good about their return policies. I watch items I want and what people are bidding on them and generally I can get the item at a lower bid between 2-4am my time. I put a limit on how high I'll go and never go over that price. But remember for a lot of the stuff you get what you pay for. So when you win a bid for video camera for 7$ don't be disappointed when you get this tiny box with a plastic looking toy that works but can't read directions or review recordings. Just saying.

This site kept billing me for items I never bid on. Then barred me from bidding because I cancelled the orders I never bid upon. My final 2 purchases never worked and they would not refund my purchase of a defective item because I had closed my account.

That doesn't sound right. Tophatter only sends an invoice to be paid by the buyer when an item is won. If there are charges you do not recognize, please contact our support team here https://tophatter.com/support/new.

I have gotten some unexpected gems from here. Some smaller than you thought and some with good quality and some came in and they were perfect, others though not so much. Just be mindful when you're on this site. I'm pretty much 49/51 with this site. Not everything is good but not everything is bad. Below are some pics of my items. The little elephant was way smaller but its still cute the moon light man that was my major disappointment the watch was perfect the necklace w/ earrings is great and the dragon cup was a let down too. Its plastic it lights up.

My thoughts
December 14, 2019

I have received some items which I was pleased with and others not so much. I just received some Keto tablets that had a date of 10/2014. I received a jacket that should be a large that was more a small, jewelry that was not quite as pictured, but I also received a toy Transformer that works but is smaller than I thought it would be and a couple of clocks that are fine.
I have other items purchased that I haven't received yet so we will see how that goes.

Great gifts at a great price
December 14, 2019

I really didn't even have a Christmas budget this year... things are so bad right now for me financially and then my car recently broke down as well... so I really didn't have anything to spare for Christmas shopping.
Then somehow I came across TopHatter and I was like oh my gosh-where has this been all my life...
I was able to get several nice gifts for each of my 2 little boys for Christmas and also something for each of my parents.
I saw a lot of nice things I'd like to have-so hopefully when life picks back up for me-I'm gonna be buying some things for myself too!
I think this is a great site for shopping-especially on a budget.
Thanks TopHatter... you saved me this Christmas!

Junk you over pay for
December 14, 2019

You pay too much. It's junk from China. It takes a long time to get the orders. Then when you're ripped off with plastic toys and crap, it's almost impossible to do anything about it. And not worth your time and money to send back. Junk comes as a stupid toy, or broken. Don't use this site if you want to buy anything of any quality.

Vendors are deceaving!
December 14, 2019

What I got to day in the mail was a piece of paper. On the auction site it looks like a picture frame, that you fill in with family pictures. Boy was I wrong Also, when I open something I throw the envelope it throw it away. To have to take a picture of the bag and item is stuid, Most places selling on the internet will send you a tracking label to return item. I will be using Topahett any time soon that is for sure!

I have spent a lot of money on this website. Before receiving any of my products. Once they started coming in most of my things are very cheaply made. I am very dissatisfied with most of the products this far. I have spent over 500 dollars. I will not be purchasing anything else. Hopefully the rest of the stuff will be better.
