Zapaka Reviews Summary

Despite paying for expedited shipping, order came a month after the event we ordered for. Jump through endless ridiculous hoops to return UNOPENED package and even though they received it, the refused to refund. Awful company

Worse online experience
November 25, 2021

Late by months, misleading communications, very low quality items and a horrid, return policy. Basically a scam for anyone in Europe or the US. They are not organised enough for international bussiness. Don't waste your money on them

Dear,
We are deeply sorry to hear that you have encountered a problem.
I verified your situation. You contacted us to cancel 5 days after we shipped it. We cannot cancel the dress that has been shipped. We are very sorry, and you have chosen ordinary logistics. The transportation will take 8-12 working days. About.
The total time required to receive your item is the processing time plus the shipping time.
We are always committed to providing customers with the best solutions that comply with our policies. Please see more details about our refund and return policy here: https://zapaka.com/pages/return-policy
If you have any order questions, please feel free to send an email to [email protected] or provide us with a valid order number.
Thanks,

Just don't do it!
November 25, 2021

Just don't do it! I wanted to return my order as the dresses were not at all like the images. Turns out their returns are in China and would be $60 and over a month to return. This is not stated anywhere in their site. I spoke to customer service who admitted that the dresses are made to match the photo. The photo is not actually of the dress you are purchasing! Very unhelpful, just kept telling me I was responsible for shipping. Absolutely a scam! Save yourself the money and the headache!

Don't waste your money!
November 10, 2021

Dreadful! I paid for express delivery £16 extra for my order of two 1920s Black and white dresse and accessories to arrive in time for Halloween, didnt arrive in time! Instead I had to order some more dresses from Amazon prime which i think the dresses are of better quality. Extremely disappointed dont bother wasting your money!. Ive requested a refund and still waiting for a response, looking at other reviews im also dreading this process and fuming the fact you have to pay to return your items back to China

Hello,
We are sorry about this. I confirmed your order. The preparation time for the skirt you buy will take about 2-5 days, and the expedited logistics transportation will take about 3-7 working days, so Halloween cannot be shipped, which will bring you inconvenience. We are very sorry for the bad shopping experience. Our staff has already contacted you. Our email is [email protected].
Our customer service team is always at your service, if you have any other questions, we are happy to help you!
Enjoy the rest of the day!

Quatre étoiles, pas mal!
November 2, 2021

J'ai commandée deux robes de chez vous et je suis très satisfaite avec la verte des années 20 du siècle dernier.La rouge n'est pas "bourgogne" mais rouge vif et c'est un peu ringard pour mes 68 ans.

Avoid!
October 31, 2021

I received several dresses in small, one of which is labelled small but is a good inch smaller than the others. After weeks of nagging they claim to have refunded me two weeks ago. They haven't and are continuing to be avoidant. Don't buy from here!

Shipping
October 5, 2021

My dress hasn't shown up yet, it's been days. I need it on the ninth for homecoming, and the tracking number won't work. It's saying there been a shipping label placed for it, but that's all. It said september 30th, then the first of october, now the 4th. It still isn't here, it's the 4th.

Absolutely loved both dresses
October 1, 2021

Really affordable, but good quality dresses. I also bought a belt and petticoat, which I would recommend as it really enhances the dresses look.
Would 100% recommend.

Excellent value for money
October 1, 2021

I purchased a vintage style dress for an event that I was due to attend. I could not fault the quality of the fabric, stitch work and finished garment. I was also very pleased to find that the garment size was exactly as stated on the website. Well done Zapaka I will certainly purchase clothing from you again.

Purchased 2 items in good faith and paid an additional £16.99 for a speedy delivery. Items did not arrive in time. ( contacted customer service a number of times to no avail) unfortunately they arrived after my event so I need to return, They now expect me to
Pay shipping costs back to China. Also trying to offer me a 10% refund to not return.

Items are more fancy dress, very poor quality. Would not recommend

Buyer Beware!
September 17, 2021

If you purchase a dress from this website and need to return it, be prepared to pay shipping costs to China. Nowhere on their website do they state that all returns have to go to China. The shipping costs will be more than anything you purchase on their site. This is unethical business practice and they need to be reported.

Fits beautifully.
August 16, 2021

I bought this dress for my prom, and it's absolutely stunning! It took exactly a month to arrive, including processing and shipping. It took quite a while to process, and I was worried it wouldn't be here on time but once processing was complete, it was shipped in a week! I would definitely recommend custom fit, I'm very tall so that was the best option for me, and it's not massively expensive. The quality isn't awful, it's no designer brand, but it's very good for the money. I would also say that the dress has a slight pink undertone to it, but I had no problem with that. Unfortunately my prom has been cancelled, so I won't actually be able to wear this stunning dress for prom, but I had a nice experience with this company and would definitely recommend it for buying dresses - just make sure to order the dress at least 1 or 2 months in advance for your event.

DO NOT BUY FROM HERE
August 11, 2021

Unless you are positive it will fit and arrive on time, DO NOT ORDER anything from here.
They have false advertising for fast delivery and easy returns.
Delivery was definitely not fast and I am getting the run around on trying to return the dresses that did not arrive in time for my event. Also bought dresses for more than one person and I am told they do not encourage buying multiple in different sizes and is against policy. What?!
Return shipping to China is on you and they try to exhaust you so that you get frustrated and don't even bother sending things back. It's pretty sickening and time consuming.
Do yourself a favor and order somewhere else!

This was the 7th dress I had bought online to be worn by my daughter for her to attend a wedding. None of the other six from other retailers looked like they did in the photos but this dress did. Very pleased and a great price too. Would recommend.
