The business cards were unusable, unprofessional and poor quality. Poor cutting and they did not print my design correctly. I will never use them again.

I am so pleased with my purchase from Zazzle. This will not be my last order. The paper quality is fantastic, the printing is perfect, and their website shows just what you will get... only, the products are even better in person!

I've been having a great experience with my purchasing of Zazzle wedding products. Everything I've bought has arrived in a timely manner, packaged securely and as was pictured on the web site.

I ordered mass cards on a Sunday for a funeral on Friday. I paid the express shipping rate, which said they would be here Wednesday or Thursday. They are located in northern California, and I am located in Southern California. On Wednesday my product still said "making" I emailed customer service and received a generic response later that evening. On Thursday morning, my product still said "making." What was the point of paying $24 in shipping if they can't deliver it as promised. I ordered bookmarks from another company and a guest book from a different company a day after I ordered the mass cards and BOTH of those items arrived on time with no issues. We talked to customer service who said they would try to ship them out Thursday evening. I told them the funeral was Friday morning. They said I could have a refund if they didn't arrive in time. BUT I still had to order them from another company A DAY BEFORE the funeral JUST in case they didn't arrive on time. Which surprise, surprise they didn't. I got an email while at the funeral that said my product had been delivered and for my inconvenience, they gave me a 25% off coupon for my next order... I won't need that since I won't be ordering from Zazzle. At least they didn't give me any hassle when I called them for my full refund since they did not arrive on time. Just a heads up, don't order anything of importance from this company. AND don't trust the shipping dates, even if you pay the ridiculous amount to have it shipped on time.

Scenic Coffee cup

The product was excellent and the shipping packaging was the best I have seen in a long time. I also ordered the most inexpensive polo shirt which I thought should have been of better quality. The better quality shirt I thought was a bit too much money, especially if you want to re-sell it.

I ordered an iPhone 8+ phone case, it said in description it was a " CASE ". It as stated it was textured, It came and it was a cover and it looked textured but wasn't, It was a metal cover of a portion of a football. The cost of it was about $30. I could of gotten the very same item I was sent for $10 to $12 at other sites. There is no areas on Zazzle to resolve complaints of purchased items or misleading items. Thanks ALOT!

I ordered the T-shirt size i thought would work, but it turned out to be too small, so i had to re-order. Since it had been over a month since i bought the original, i thought i may have to pay something, especially since it wasn't the fault of Zazzle I ordered the wrong size. But they allowed me to order the correct size, which I received very timely. I was very happy with the service I received

Thanks,

Misrepresented
January 18, 2020

I ordered a MOTHER OF PEARL switch plate cover and received a switch plate covered with shinny paper and a plastic cover. PLEASE beware of this company. The description said MOTHER OF PEARL TILES and it was only shinny paper, no tiles, no mother of pearl. Don't rely on the return policy. Just beware!

Hi Mary,

We are truly sorry that you were under the impression this would actually be made with mother of pearl material. We advise in the product description that the material used is "ultra-durable acrylic" along with "Vibrant full-color AcryliPrint®HD printing". We certainly don't want you to be disappointed with your experience with us and can see you have been in contact with our Customer Support Team. Please reply at your convenience and we will be sure to assist you with the options we provided.

Thanks so much.

I ordered for the first time from Zazzle. Here's my honest review.
PROS:
- Easy site navigation on mobile, checkout experience was also simple and easy
- Fast shipping
- They advertise coupon codes directly on their site to encourage you to buy
- I love the products, most are pretty cute
- Their customer service is excellent, I was impressed. When I had an issue with a product and asked for a refund, they promptly emailed me back with a full refund and did not ask me to return the products. Most businesses suck at this aspect.
- Their marketing/communications is actually decent.

CONS
- Their products are made in China, which was really disappointing
- As a result of being made in China, one of the products (handwash and toothbrush holder bath set) arrived with a warning note stating that the product contained lead which can cause cancer and brain damage. I would never put my family around harmful substances, so I threw it away. It' sad because I actually like the monogram and end product
- I paid a big shipping cost which was the price of another purchase. Felt really steep.

Zazzle had a great start but has a long way to go. While they appear to handle customer service and website nav well, their focus should be what matters the most to the customers: a quality product.

Dear Trina – We checked with our products Safety team and here’s the response.

Under California Proposition 65, businesses are required to provide a warning to California consumers when selling a product that contains any of the listed 850+ substances at levels that exceed the safe harbor limits established by the State of California under “CA Prop 65”. The CA Prop 65 warnings are only required under California law, to be given to California consumers of adult and children’s products at both the point of purchase (onsite), as well as on or within the physical product. Zazzle currently includes these CA Prop 65 warnings for all of its customers so that they may make informed purchasing decisions. Therefore, the product also has this warning shown online.

Customer safety is, and has always been, one of our primary concerns and we take it seriously. We have tested this product in lab for all relevant existing laws per it’s end use, and the warning is necessary because of the results from our lab report. Having said that, the exposure is minimal. So a consumer has to be exposed to the product for several years. We don’t have any data reg: exposure but I can assure you, we’re only following the laws and procedures.

We apologize for any inconvenience caused. I have located your order with the information you have provided and I will be reaching out to you very soon.

Thank you,
Elena

Stellar-5-star-show for a slightly imperfect business, lol. I've been doing business with Zazzle for at least 5 years and I've had several issues over the years but by and large this business rocks. For instance, they really do take back anything you dont like within 30days, sales, sales, sales, Zazzle Black, just 10$ yearly and thats all for shipping, overall effective customer support, not perfect, but overall great, I tout ZAzzle to my two groups I run, I could seriously see myself being their spokes person b/c theyre simply the best shop on the internet in MHO.

Arrived Damaged
December 31, 2019

The item I ordered arrived damaged. I contacted customer service. They refunded my money and I was able to reorder; however, I ordered something similar which hopefully will ship without a problem. I had to pay additional shipping charges. I have not received the replacement.

I googled "gifts for my Lash Lady" and I was brought to this site just to realize there is SO much offered! For SO many occasions. I loved going through the site and finding a gift, and I'll definitely use it again! Maybe even a little something for myself ;)

On December 2, I placed and order for 10 Luggage tags for Christmas gifts. Upon arrival, I noticed that the names on the front of the tags did not match the backs. I placed a phone call to Zazzle Customer Support. After speaking with both a representative as well as a supervisor, we agreed upon a solution, that they were going to reprint the luggage tags with matching fronts and backs. This reprint was going to be "Red Flagged" so that Quality Control would catch any issues. On December 24, I received the second round of luggage tags with the same problem (the front and backs names did not match). I then reached out to the customer service representative assigned to my order via email since the call center was already down for the holidays. I expressed my disappointment and inquired about what had happened with the "Quality Control" that was promised? The response that I received was "It appears that another agent cancelled the quality assurance test for your order due to some delays in production over this busy holiday period." The representative then progresses to ask whether I would prefer a bank refund or a store credit because a reprint is proving to be ineffective for my "particular requirements". So if your "particular requirements" consist of a luggage tag with a matching names on the front and back... RECONSIDER ORDERING. Otherwise, you too will be explaining to your children, why Santa brought a luggage tag, for an up coming trip, with grandpa's name on the front and theirs on the back.
