Review about: NexGen Yachting
Yacht vacation booking
Oh my gosh, booking my yacht vacation was unbelievably easy! I just went to the website, chose my dates, and bam, all ready for a fancy vacation on the ocean. The prices were really reasonable, and the whole process went really smoothly. And they offer so many awesome services like water sports and yacht management. It's like a dream come true!
Review about: Sweaty Betty
Activewear birthday discount changed size
I had such a great experience with customer service! I needed to change the size of something I got with my birthday discount, and Gemma S. was super quick and helpful with the exchange. It was way easier than dealing with some other companies that make it a hassle to change orders. Sweaty Betty really goes above and beyond with their customer service, so I'll definitely be coming back for more activewear!
Review about: Green Pan
Overpriced pans
I bought a set of pans from here and man, was I let down. I tried my best to take good care of them, but pretty soon they were sticking like crazy. My advice: don't waste your cash, just get a regular non-stick pan instead.
Review about: Sees Candy
Truffles, assorted creams, peanut brittle
I consider myself a bit of a fancy treat enthusiast, so I was super pumped to finally get my hands on some See's chocolates. Yet, I gotta say, I ended up feeling a little let down. The peanut brittle had this weird caramelized flavor that seemed a little too cooked, not the crispy goodness I had in mind. And the truffles, usually a go-to for their smooth and velvety feel, more or less tasted like creams. I still have some assorted creams to taste, but my first impression wasn't exactly what I was expecting from a big shot chocolate maker like See's.
Review about: Smoky Mountain Knife Works
Pocket knife purchase
I recently bought a pocket knife from this store, and let me tell you, it was a total disaster. The first knife they sent me was messed up, and when I reached out to customer service, they sent me a replacement that was also damaged. This happened two more times before I gave up on getting a good knife. And when I tried to talk to the higher-ups about it, they treated me poorly and didn't even listen to my concerns. To top it all off, I kept getting their catalog in the mail even though I tried to get off their mailing list several times. It was a total joke of an experience.
Review about: Gabb Wireless
Smartwatch with GPS feature
I recently bought a smartwatch with GPS for my son's Christmas gift. Sadly, it ended up being a total bust. The GPS was not reliable at all, which defeated the whole point of the watch. On top of that, the watch just stopped working not long after he got it. When I tried to get help from customer service, they were no help at all and just gave me the runaround. They also kept reminding me about the 2-year contract and early termination fee every time I called. If you're thinking about buying from this company, I suggest looking elsewhere to save yourself some money and time.
Review about: Outdoorplay
Werner Desperado paddle
I just got a paddle from Outdoorplay but they sent me the wrong one. Thankfully, their customer service team was super helpful and nice when I contacted them about the mix-up. They took the return no problem and got the right paddle to me in just a few days. This was my second time buying from them, and after this, I'll definitely be coming back for more.
Review about: eVitamins
Vitamins
I just bought some vitamins from this website and, you know, it went pretty well. The prices were good and everything arrived in good shape. But, man, it took a little while for my order to get here. I thought it was kinda weird that my vitamins were coming from the US when I was searching for stuff from Mexico. I usually don't order internationally because of customs, so that was on my mind. But, hey, everything turned out okay in the end.
Review about: Hypest Key
Operating system purchase
After looking around for a while, I finally found the perfect operating system for my computer with the help of some awesome online support. They suggested I go with Windows 10, and turns out, I'm pretty happy with it. There are so many choices out there nowadays, I'm sure anyone can find the right fit if they search. I was a little worried about the shipping, but everything got here fast and smooth. I'll definitely be coming back for more, since the service was top-notch and the delivery was quick.
Review about: Modes
Prada shoes purchase
I bought a pair of shoes from this company recently, and man, let me tell you, I ran into a major problem. When I tried them on at home, I noticed right away that the insole was way too small for the shoe. It was super uncomfortable and basically made the shoes useless. So, I reached out to the company to explain what happened. At first, they seemed cool about it, asking for pictures to see what was up and promising a refund. But once they got the shoes back, they totally flipped the script and said no refund for me, even though it was totally their mistake. I was really disappointed and felt like they were unprofessional. I ended up finding another way to get my money back and wanted to warn others about buying from them.
Review about: Decluttr
Blu-ray purchase
I haven't sold anything on here, but I've bought Blu-rays and they've all been great! Sometimes the cases are a little banged up, but the discs are always in good shape, which is all that matters to me. If they sold just the discs, I'd be totally cool with that.
Review about: Nutrition for Longevity
Food plan purchase
I really like the idea of offering healthy meals to customers, but I did have some issues with the ordering system. I like to customize my breakfast smoothie with specific ingredients like berries, greens, flax, herbs, and ginger, but that wasn't an option. Also, I felt that one of the breakfast choices, the brownie breakfast, was way too sweet - it felt more like a dessert than a breakfast item, and it made me crave more sugar. Since I'm overweight, older, and not very active, the standard 1600 calorie plan was too much for me. I also had trouble figuring out what to do with all the leftover food, so I ended up wasting a lot of my first order.
Review about: Memoky, Inc
Super helpful and nice staff
They were really nice and helpful, you know? They made sure I was happy with my purchase and even went out of their way for me. I wish more companies were as great as them.
Review about: Shoeline
Boots
I bought some boots online back in December, but then got an email about a week later saying my order got axed. So, I ended up grabbing a different pair from a different store. What really surprised me was that a week after that, the original company shot me an email saying my order was on its way. I gave their customer service a ring to let them know how frustrated I was, but they didn't seem sorry one bit. They said I could send the boots back, but then I'd be stuck with a pair I didn't like as much. This whole ordeal not only gave me a terrible customer experience, but it also seemed shady to ship something after cancelling the order. Needless to say, I won't be shopping with them again.
Review about: Tinyhood
Breastfeeding course
I watched this breastfeeding course from Tinyhood and let me tell you, it was so helpful. My little one is 6 weeks old and I'm all about nursing right now, using all the tips and tools I picked up from the course. When my baby was ready to eat and latch right from the get-go, I remembered what I learned and it worked like magic! I definitely suggest checking it out before the big day arrives. Don't forget to tell your pregnant friends too - they'll appreciate it later on.
Review about: Taylor Made
Two broken drivers
I recently bought two drivers from this company and man, let me tell you, both of them totally fell apart on me right after I got them. It's obvious there's a big problem with how this company makes their stuff. What really bums me out is how their customer service team didn't even seem to care when I reached out for help. I called, emailed, and even sent them a handwritten letter, but they just brushed off all my concerns. That's just not right, especially when you've been a loyal customer for years. I ended up selling all my other stuff from this brand and I won't be buying anything else from them in the future, that's for sure.
Review about: jewelryandfindings
Beads, spacers, findings
I got some beads, spacers, and findings and they were gorgeous! Way better than the pictures. Plus, if they didn't have something I wanted, they told me and gave me options. Shipping to the USA was surprisingly fast, only took 14 days. I'm already thinking about what to order next because the quality and prices are unbeatable!
Review about: Gwynnie Bee
My Experience at Gwynnie Bee
I tried out Gwynnie Bee recently and honestly, it was a little slow. It was kinda frustrating waiting for new stuff after sending back the old items. Even though I made sure to keep enough things in my closet, there were still delays in getting new items. I think for the price you pay each month, they should work on getting things to ya quicker. Also, the discounts they offered to buy the items I already had were pretty small.
Review about: CityPASS
Russia CityPass in Moscow and St. Petersburg
I just got back from a trip to Russia and let me tell you, buying those Moscow and St. Petersburg CityPass were totally worth it! I couldn't believe all the cool places I could get into for free and the sweet discounts at restaurants with those passes. It seriously saved me a bunch of money, which meant I could have an even better time checking out both cities. I had a blast exploring everything and you can bet I'll be planning another trip back there sometime soon!
Review about: DallasDesignerHandbags
Special Edition Handbag Purchase
I recently bought a special edition handbag from this online store and I have to say, I am really happy with how everything went down. At first, I was hesitant because this bag wasn't sold in the US, and I was worried about getting a fake from an international seller. But guess what? I found it on this website and it was a great price, especially with the discounts I could use and no taxes since I'm not in Texas, plus they threw in free shipping. They also had a 30-day return policy just in case I didn't like it, but that wasn't necessary because the bag was even better in person. It came in perfect condition, looking like it was just made, and even had the original box and dust bag. It only took three days to get to me, a little longer than expected because of the bad weather, but still way faster than other sites I've bought from.
