Bought a coat from above business, I normally wear a size 12, ordered an extra large to accommodate winter clothing. Hahaha twice as wide & half as long as typical, shoulder seams reach 5 inches over shoulders, pockets so small only half my hand fits, advertised as 3/4 length, doesn't even cover my butt, except 12" longer in front, collar & sleeves different from picture, seams puckered and pulled everywhere. No lining or backing on fuzzy type material. Plus it makes me itch. Just trash, don't, I repeat, don't, only order at your own risk, I know I never will again.

Dealing with Tophatter service personal is wonderful. They are fair and very helpful. The bad part of this is some things are not worth bidding for. I bid on what I thought was going to be a medium side sphere... it was a little bigger than a shooter from a marbles bag. I have gotten other things that have been marvelous. Suggest that everyone try and check out what certain things really are and what they come with before you bid. Remember most things sizes are in metric and order a size larger with clothes.
Hi Elizabeth,

It's very easy to do. It's also very easy to buy things that you didn't realize that you wanted until they were only about four dollars each.
Yes its cheap but not worth the $$.
The item you get is not the one you paid for or the quantity.
Please don't waste your time or money

Some adds are fairly deceptive, while most are completely deceptive. You will also be lucky to receive something you ordered. Most likely to receive something that you didn't order.

I gave 4 stars because of the quality of some of the items. But I have learned to check the items reviews. There are some great deals if you are careful and have an idea how much the items cost at retail storees

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.
