    Contacted this useless company and told them I did not get my slippers. UPS said they delivered them, yes but to where? They said they would get back to me, never did. Escalated problem with PayPal, they sided with Shoes.com. I had other deliveries that week, so no one took them off the stoop like Shoes.com is saying. I lost money because the UPS guy delivered them to wrong house! No big deal now, Shoes.com is off of my list of online stores. I will shop at OnlineShoes.com now and many other places. Congrats Shoes.com, you lost another customer.

    I placed an order on Dec. 16 with a 3 day shipping fee. Received a confirmation email on December 19 stating it was on its way. I did not receive my product until Dec 26. Spoke with a rep who was very curt and rude. She hung up on me while I was waiting for a supervisor. I called back again and got hung up on again. I will never use this company again and will spread the word for others not to use them as well.

    We bought a pair of $150 Uggs for my daughter for Christmas; the size turned out to be too small, but the box had been discarded with other items. They would not even consider allowing an exchange, even if I bought the second pair outright and returned the first in the new box. So we have a brand new, completely useless pair of Uggs. All they would say is "I understand this is frustrating for you, but this is our policy." I can't recall running into this kind of inflexibility with any other vendors.

    On November 29th I ordered two pairs of shoes. I received confirmation that they had shipped and a UPS tracking number on Dec 2. My account was charged on the 3rd. Nearly 2 weeks later the shoes still have not shipped, and customer service tells me that they will refund my money after the shoes are returned to their warehouse. How can shoes that have not been shipped be RETURNED? It's time that the Federal Trade Commission looked into this pattern of violations of their rules for online sales.

    Sent back 2 pair of ankle boot, 1 was an exchange and the other a refund. Since they were 2 different types of returns I couldn’t send them back in original box. Sent them back in the shoe boxes with appropriate labels, but they stated they were damaged and refused refund. When I called them and spoke to a rude customer service rep. and then her ruder supervisor I was told that because the shoe boxes were “damaged” they couldn’t accept them for a refund and exchange. The damage must have been the labels and tape and some UPS dirt on them. The supervisor said even though the boots were okay that people expect “pristine” shoe boxes. Huh? Who cares about the shoeboxes if the shoes are fine? I filed a dispute with my credit card company.

    I ordered a pair of Sketchers Sneakers, never a good idea to order new shoe brands online. They arrived. No return label. I tried them on right away. They didn’t fit. I called Shoes.com. They said they no longer add the return label in the box with the shoes and they have to email or send you the label. I asked them to mail me the label (no printer). It’s been a month. I called them back to say I haven’t received my label. Then some smart mouth girl says they have sent it, but they will send it again! Please! There are too many places to buy shoes now and most stores have great sales. I'm sticking to buying things at stores where I can return things If I have to and try things on.

I received an order confirmation that day, however after over a week, I never received a notification that my order had shipped. So I logged on to Shoes.com only to discover that it said my order was cancelled.

    Went with Shoes.com to purchase Timberlands for my daughter. Great price overall but had I known I would run into issues with the company, I would have paid the extra $70 to get it somewhere else. I placed an order the weekend of Dec 5th. My card was declined due to the bank flagging as possible fraudulent charge. But the money comes out anyways. I called the company to see if I was still getting the shoes I ordered. They said that they had nothing showing that they received any money from me and I should call my bank.

    So I call my bank and get the authorization code used to pull the money from my checking and the exact date and time the money came out. I called Shoes.com back and they still denied receiving money from me. So I gave them the authorization code and the exact time the money was taken from me then the lady puts me on hold. A few minutes later she comes back on and tells me my money will be deposited back in 1 to 2 business days. Funny how they magically found my money when I gave them the code that they used to take it from my account. If I could rate this company with negative stars, I would in a heartbeat. I am all for second chances, but not when it comes to my hard earned money.

    This company needs to be put out of business. We ordered a pair of slippers. They advertise "free shipping." Not really. We sent the slippers back to exchange for another size. They deduct 6.95 from the return as a "restocking fee." Disgrace. We got the new slippers, they were defective and still didn't fit right. My husband tried them on, stood up, took a few steps, then we sent them back. THEY SENT THEM BACK TO US SAYING THEY WERE WORN and couldn't be sold as new. The label on the sole slipped a little. I saw a tiny piece of fuzz stuck to the label. THAT IS IT. STAY AWAY. I will do a chargeback on AMEX and hope for the best.

    I placed an order on Wednesday December 6th with Shoes.com. I paid an extra $5 for 3 day shipping because I needed the item by a specific date. With three day shipping I expected my package on Saturday December 9th. I received a shipping notice with a tracking number and when I checked it it said the package was not due for delivery until Monday December 11th. I called Shoes.com and the associate explained to me that three day shipping does not mean that I will receive the package in 3 days; she said that by their terms, it means that they have 3 days to actually deliver the package to the shipping agency. This is very deceptive and they refused to refund my $5 expedited shipping fee. I will never do business with this company again. I will also be filing a complaint through PayPal.

    I don't know what happened to this company. When it was Shoebuy I had no problems. Fast shipping, great customer service and excellent shoes. Well that's all gone to hell. I placed an order on 11/28 for 2 pair of Propet shoes. I was charged immediately. I waited 6 BUSINESS days for an email about shipping and when I didn't get one, looked my order up and saw it was still "in process". Called the company. First one hung up on me. Second one disconnected me. Third one told me I could not cancel my order, even though it hadn't even been received by the warehouse yet.

    Then "Edna" tells me that it will take another 14 days or more before I get them because they are being shipped to a PO box. No, my PO box is my BILLING address. So I ask if I can change that. No. Cancel the order then. NO. She told me I can't cancel the order because it had already been shipped. "But you just said, it wasn't even processed by the warehouse yet". Rote answer of 14 days to post office box. I said, "Transfer me to the accounts receivable dept". "Oh they already left". It was 4 pm. "Okay, then the warehouse". "Oh they're gone for the day".

    Re-activated an old account. Received a flyer with a promotional code for a 30% discount in the mail. Flyer advertised certain brands. Carefully shopped, selected 2 pairs of boots, entered promotional code which was supposed to be applied at checkout. Checked out, code was not applied. Would never have considered purchasing these boots without a discount.

    Contacted customer service, was told, "Sorry, code doesn’t apply to this brand," but they are unable to advise what brands it does work for; I needed to put the shoes in my cart and check out to see if I won the discount lottery. Seriously? I have neither the time nor inclination to carefully shop for shoes and pay full price, not knowing whether the promotional code is applicable. Customer service was able to cancel one pair of boots but not the other.

    A few days later I received an email stating boots had been shipped and the tracking number. After patiently waiting and no package, I tracked the package and found that it had been returned to sender. I was not notified. Contacted customer service again and demanded to know why they did not have the courtesy to inform me that they’d yanked my very expensive boots and also demanded to know why my money had not been refunded. I did not receive an answer to either question but was informed that my refund would be processed in 2-10 days.

    After well over 10 days my refund has yet to be processed. Shoes.com has had a lot of my money for over a month for nothing. This is a loan sitting on my credit card for no reason whatsoever. Bear in mind that neither pair of boots was ever sent to my home. Contacted customer service again and have yet to receive a response. Will never pretend to do business with this firm again.

    I placed an order and waited ELEVEN days for it. I was of course charged immediately. UPS delivered somewhere... But not to me. Shoes.com is making me wait another three weeks (THREE WEEKS!!) for an investigation. And then what? Wait for them to fool around and send me a second order? So the order I placed could end up taking close to two months – if I get it at all. I could go hunting, shoot the cow, tan the hide, dye the leather, and make my own boots in that amount of time. I am sitting here empty-handed – minus what I paid this no-good business.

    They made NO attempt to solve this issue - but expect me to sit here for – MONTHS on end – while they sort it out with UPS. Their response to me was pretty much "tough luck." I will NEVER place another order with Shoes.com (and Shoebuy.com). Shoes.com is a waste of time and money. They do not care about customer service. If something goes wrong with an order, you're on your own and you are out whatever you paid them in the meantime.

    The shoes I purchased did not fit well my feet. I walked it for twenty minutes but it hurt. There is no worn at all. This shoes can be displayed as brand new without any customer ever know they were tried. No damage, not even a scratch. Yet the return department put a picture of minor white sock fuzz left from my wool socks. This is so microscopic that I believe, because of the holidays and possible large number of returns, the business try to outsmart its customers with unreasonable reasons. I have never had any problems like that with any other online business. I keep all photos with me and would like this business to stop doing wrong to customers.

    I ordered a few pairs of boots to try out as I have plantar fasciitis and need to get good shoes. Most pairs cost at least $150 so it isn't an easy purchase. I ordered two pairs from Shoes.com, two different styles. I liked one style better, kept that, but noticed it looked a little scuffed and the box was not the original. I decided to suck it up and keep them because I had a hard time finding them on Teva's and Zappos' websites. Zappos is usually my go to. The other pair I didn't like after wearing them around the house for a bit. I didn't notice anything on them that stuck out.

    I sent them back and probably 3 weeks later received them back again with the note that they were dirty, had scuff marks, and in the wrong box. I found it funny that they wanted the original when they sent me a different box for my other pair. I also noticed tons of scuff marks on the heels. I don't know how they got there. Either they were originally sent that way and I didn't notice, or they sent me another pair. I'm in the middle of arguing with them via email to have a label and refund. But of course they will probably charge me $7 and $7 for a restocking fee. I may end up keeping them and try to sell independently.

    I personally wear primarily Merrell shoes. Most people who wear them know that the convenience of their availability in a variety of styles is very limited due to the fact that many stores don't carry the brand. I assume the lack of carrying the shoes has to do with the cost of them. Regardless Shoes.com has been wonderful to deal with. Both prompt to receive the shoes and easily accept returned items.

    After two weeks, I did not receive my return so I did not hesitate to contact the company. The customer service reps were very rude and would not allow me to speak with a Supervisor. After hanging up and calling again I spoke with a Manager and she told me I wore the shoes and they will not issue me a refund. I asked to speak with her Supervisor so I could try and resolve this issue. After 48 hours the Manager Steve ** called me back and stated he would issue me a partial refund in the amount of $15.00.

    Really feel a dire need to share this review. Buyer beware. Dealing with the most horrible online purchase in my life. Ordered a pair of cowboy boots. Had to follow up with several calls just to confirm my order was being processed and what the status was. Each call rep would then send me an email with info I was looking for. Received an email from company that order had shipped and was delivered. Followed prompts for tracking which took me to UPS website, and showed order delivered in Hermitage PA. I live about 8 hours from that town with a car ride. Nothing delivered to my address.

    I then called Shoes.com, encountered a rep who was horrible, she confirmed my address was on order, which I knew from my emails was correct. She proceeds to tell me that I placed the order, and for that reason I have to contact UPS myself, or get this, she tells me I can go to Hermitage PA which is 8 hours away by car and pick up my boots. I lost my cool. Could not believe the things she was telling me. The customer service level was below poor rating.

    I bought a pair of shoes from Shoes.com. When they arrive they looked good. I tried them on, they fit well. There seemed to be no problem. After wearing the shoes 4 times one shoe changed color and looked obviously lighter than the other shoe. The shoes had not been worn in the rain and nor had there been anything sprayed on them or anything like that. I sent the shoes back to shoes.com and ordered a replacement pair of shoes. The replacement pair came in the mail. They did not change color. Everything seemed great. Then a week later the shoes that changed color, that I originally sent back to exchange, came back to me in the mail saying they would not reimburse me for them as the shoes had obvious wear.

    I have called three times and have continued to get the runaround from shoes.com. They have not been willing to reimburse me the money for the shoes that changed color. After calling them three times and complaining about the order they offered to refund my card $10 and give me a 20% off coupon. I'm never shopping there again, so their coupon is pointless. If you have problems with your shoes DO NOT order a replacement pair. Wait to see what they are going to do with your return or exchange before ordering anything to replace the pair. I learned this lesson the hard way.

    "Expected delivery time for orders is 3-10 business days. It's typically 1-5 business days for processing your order and 1-5 business days for UPS Ground Delivery. When you pay for expedited shipping, it does not speed up the processing time for the order. The order has to be processed which still remains 1-5 business days. After processing, UPS would deliver the order within 2 business days instead of 5 business days since the shipping was upgraded. The order was placed on 15th October, 2017 after processing the item shipped on 15th October, 2017 UPS only delivers for Shoes.com on business days. Two business days from the date of shipment is Monday, 09/23/2017. The order was shipped correctly so we are unable to refund the expedited shipping fee."...

    Apparently, neither one of these representatives had any idea how their business operated, so I attempted to explain it to them by saying: "If I place an order on 10/15, and you ship the order 10/16, that means the item was processed in 1 day. When you had the box to UPS on the 16th, I should receive my package by the 18th, 19th at the latest because I paid for two day shipping." They had the hardest time understanding that, and kept referring to their processing times being the reason that my package wouldn't be delivered until 10/23. I asked them what I needed to do to return the item upon arrival and they said they'd send a shipping label (I used my own instead to prevent the package being "lost") via email and that I would receive a refund once the item was returned.

    On October 15, 2017, I paid $117.95 for the item; $107.95 for the shoes w/ tax and $10.00 for two day shipping. They received/processed the return and sent me a refund of $101.00; $107.95 for the shoes w/ tax minus a $6.95 restocking fee. That makes sense. I decided to go against the reviews when I placed my order thinking "maybe my experience will be different." Don't follow in my footsteps; I would avoid Shoes.com at all cost. I ended up ordering from Amazon.com. (I have a Prime membership) and found the shoes for the same price and free two day shipping and received them in time for my trip. Now I have to contact PayPal (always use PayPal if it's an option at checkout, it protects you from issues like these) and hopefully will get this issued resolved. Hopes this helps!

    Shoes.com really doesn't care about customer experience. They shipped the wrong item, my husband called them back to return. He had the worst experience with the agent who didn't speak much of English. The agent said that she would send a paid return label and instead we just received the address to return it to. I have paid over $70 for all shipping costs there and back as well duties. But the company decided not to refund me for these fees!!! At the end of the day it is not the item I ordered. Why do I have to pay this much money from my pocket? Never buy anything from them. Surprised they are still on business.

All I did was try them on and wouldn't have had time to wear them even if they did fit. It was still in the 90’s where I live. I have gone back and forth with them and I am stuck with boots that don't fit. I believe that this is a huge scam.

    Ordered shoes here and they sent the wrong shoes along with the wrong receipt. Called them and they denied it. They then finally admitted, after I shared the receipt, that my shoes were shipped to someone else. They then proceeded to tell me they would not refund my order or ship the correct shoes until I returned the wrong shoes. I shipped them via UPS and waited until I could confirm they had been delivered. I called again due to no refund showing up in my PayPal. The agent denied they had received them. Once I shared the tracking info and by whom they had been received at Shoes.com they acknowledged they had received them and asked that I wait 3-5 days for the refund to process. After 5 days, no refund (and by the way, no shoes) so I called back a 3rd time.

    The agent once again denied they had ever received the shoes back. So once again, I explained they had been received, who had received them and that this was the 3rd conversation. Miraculously, she acknowledged they had been received and, wait for it, the refund would now take up to 5 days to process. Clearly, she was reading from the same script. So here we sit, a month into an order with shoes.com and still no shoes and out the cost of those shoes. Never have I ever experienced such poor customer service. All of the agents dealt with thus far had very strong accents and were very difficult to understand. All of these agents insisted they were located, physically, in Massachusetts. I have my doubts. Still waiting. Not holding my breath. AVOID, AVOID, AVOID.

    They send you the wrong size and then charge you a 7 dollar restock fee. Judging by how many times this happens on these reviews and all the different excuses they come up with, this must be a scam. I truly believe they are sending the wrong thing on purpose. The manager told us that we would get 30% off what we paid originally and when we called they put us through the ringer and said that it would only be 10 because we got 20 before.

    Have bought many shoes over the past few years for the family from shoes.com, and had never had to make a return or exchange. Well, finally got a shoe that just did not work for me - had them send me another size to see if that worked, and it did not. So when I tried to send back for refund, the shoes were sent back to me saying they had been worn. They sent photos to me online, when I said they had not been used at all.

    The images they sent did look dirty, yet the shoes I had in my hand were perfectly clean and unworn. I had them only for a few seconds and they were so uncomfortable I had to take them off immediately. Could barely stand to try them on, let alone walk around outside in them. Tried again and sent them my own photos, but they refused to discuss the matter further.

When I initiated a return, they wanted to charge me a $6.95 restocking fee to ship back the shoes that they sent to me in the wrong color! In addition, they wouldn't ship me back the correct color shoes, I had to first ship them back their shoes that were sent incorrectly with the wrong color, resulting in further delays. When I asked why this was, I was told it was to verify that I was telling the truth in getting the wrong color shoes shipped to me... What??? I had ordered 6 pairs of shoes!!!

    After exchanging an item, I was charged a restocking fee by mistake. I called Shoes.com to remind them of the exchange order I'd already placed and paid for, which should have waived the restocking fee. The Shoes.com representative kept saying my exchange order "didn't go through" and I needed to contact PayPal, since that was my form of payment.

    So I did. The PayPal representative confirmed that Shoes.com did indeed have my payment for the exchange order. Together, the kind PayPal rep and I placed a conference call BACK to Shoes.com. When another Shoes.com rep gave me the exact same run-around that my exchange order "didn't go through" the PayPal rep spoke up, confirming that Shoes.com HAD MY PAYMENT.

    I demanded the full refund on my exchange order that had not been shipped by Shoes.com (and NEVER would have been shipped) as well as the restocking fee I was charged. Funny how, when I called back with a PayPal rep to help advocate for me, not only did Shoes.com refund the exchange purchase payment they supposedly didn't have (hmmm...) but they also refunded the restocking fee. If I hadn't called Shoes.com to refute this, I would be sitting here without my cash and without any merchandise from Shoes.com. Gone are the days of great values, great customer service, and FREE shipping and returns that SHOES.COM USED to have. I was a faithful customer to Shoes.com for many years!

    I'd like to preface this review by saying I do about 75% of my shopping and purchasing online and have done so for at least the past five years, so I am an experienced virtual shopper. This particular buying experience was awkward infuriating from the very beginning. To start, the Shoes.com site touted a "site-wide sale" that lured me in. Unfortunately, the sale immediately excluded all but one of the items I wanted to purchase. I ordered that pair of shoes in two different sizes since I tend to run between sizes and would rather try them both on and send the one that doesn't fit back to the store. What should have been a twenty second checkout process took several minutes. The cart sent me through Paypal twice before there was anywhere I could review and submit the order. I did not click any buttons or try to interrupt the process--it made me log back into Paypal after it accepted my shipping address to make me confirm the billing address.

    During this process, the shopping cart dropped the last digit off the nine-digit zip code, so I had to manually correct both addresses on the order review screen. I quickly checked my Paypal account to try to figure out why the zip code was wrong and my Paypal account showed the correct zip code. The correction wasn't persistent, apparently, because the zip code showing on the confirmation screen after I submitted the order still lacked the last digit.

    I received the order confirmation via email almost immediately but there was never any follow up of a shipping notification. I checked my spam folder several days in a row and there was nothing there--the shipping notice would have come to the same email address as the order confirmation I had received. The order arrived in a timely manner (5 business days after it was placed) and everything was in fine shape.

    When I tried on the shoes, neither pair fit so I immediately got online to create a return so that I didn't miss a return deadline. I've been the victim of fine-print sneaky return policies before and didn't want to end up keeping two pairs of shoes I didn't want. I discovered that I had 60 days from the order date to return items, but here was another fine-print sneaky return policy: each returned item incurs a $6.95 "restocking fee." They claim free shipping and exchanges in big letters all over the site, but until I hunted pretty hard for their actual return policy, I didn't know that returns are anything but free. I contacted customer service via chat to verify whether the fee was per item or per order and got disconnected by the first representative, so I had to log back on and ask someone else who affirmed that each returned item results in a seven dollar charge against the refund amount. Buyer beware.

    This is where it got really frustrating. I found out you cannot return an entire order at once. There is nowhere you can simply select checkboxes and say "return." You have to process a single return or exchange for each item, which you can only do after you've gone through at least three different screens to get to the items you want to return or exchange. If you select "exchange" it takes you to the site to shop for a new item, which makes perfect sense, but nowhere in the cart does it indicate that you have any kind of credit against any new item that you add.

    Once again, there was a sale going on that didn't apply to anything I wanted, so I never made it far enough in the cart process to find out at what point the exchange credit actually shows up. According to their exchange policy, they don't actually issue a credit at the time of exchange--they make you pay for the new item and then issue a refund once they receive the returned item. I decided to choke down the $14 return fee for both pairs of shoes rather than going through their convoluted exchange process, so I went back through the return system again to cancel the exchange requests and generate a return for each pair.

    After going through the entire return request process twice (once for each pair of shoes), I got an error message saying neither shipping label could be generated and that I would have to call customer service. I got back on chat to ask if they could just email me a shipping label. The representative told me that the shipping labels did not automatically generate because their system showed the zip code was incorrect.

    I explained that the zip code in my Paypal account shows correctly and that it probably had something to do with their shopping cart. The representative said they would have to get a supervisor to send me shipping labels and then responded, "I would say still check the Paypal. Our system wouldn't just pull up half the zip code, this is the first I've ever heard of that and I've been here for quite some time." I had already checked Paypal, as I told the representative when I logged onto chat with her, and I wasn't particularly happy with her condescending tone. Apparently the customer is never right at Shoes.com, even when she has informed customer service she already checked and that the problem is not on her end.

    I am anticipating a delay or some kind of issue with refunds just based on how this entire purchasing experience has gone so far. I was told during the customer service chat that I would receive a shipping label within 24 hours, which I doubt will happen, but I intend to ship the order back to them as soon as that label shows up. The website indicates 2-10 business days for credit card refunds and I have a fallback with Paypal where I can dispute the purchase if Shoes.com doesn't issue a timely refund.

    I will never shop this website again and will recommend that friends and family spend their money elsewhere, as well. I can forgive a customer service rep for being less than diplomatic on one occasion, but when "big sale" goes to "well, not that item, or that one, or that one" not once, but twice, and when the order and return processes are unwieldy and rage-inducing every single time, and when it costs a surprise $7 per item to return anything, I'm done. Never again.

    I purchased a pair of women's New Balance Running shoes from shoes.com for about $85. I really liked the shoes and I was planning on keeping them so I threw away the box they came in. After a month and a half of wearing them 3 days a week for an hour, the pink part of the sole was completely worn away, while the rest of the sole was unworn. Being dissatisfied, I returned the shoes with an explanation that they were defective. I kept checking shoes.com for the status of my return and when the return status was no longer visible on the website, I called to find out the status.

    The customer service rep told me that the shoes were being returned to me because they were worn, dirty and missing the original box. I explained I had to return them this way because I planned on keeping them until I found out they were defective. I put all of these comments in the online return form only to have my comments ignored. The CSR would not do anything other than repeat why the return was not accepted. There's nothing more frustrating than having a CRS that doesn't know how to help customers. I told him exactly what he needed to do to satisfy my needs and he said I needed to escalate my call to a supervisor. I explained I don't work there and by the tone of my voice (angry) he should know that it's HIS JOB to escalate the call, not mine.

    Finally I got a supervisor on the phone that gave me the same spiel about the shoes being worn, dirty, etc. I said none of that matters because they're defective. The supervisor said they would review my case and get back to me within 3-5 business days. I received the shoes the next day with a note indicating shoes.com could not resold. 5 business days came and went and I never heard back from shoes.com so I disputed the transaction with my Costco Citi Visa Credit Card and received a full refund within 24 hours.

    Ok so I called back in 2 days and of course they stuck to their story of the shoes being dirty. I told them I did not agree as the shoes were returned in perfect condition and in the same box. The supervisor just kept saying she understood, but they would not refund my money. I then asked for the phone number for their corporate office which she gave me, but then all of a sudden she was offering me a 30% discount on another pair of shoes. I then asked for the address for their corporate office and she said they were not allowed to give out the corporate address over the phone!! I then asked "How are people supposed to write to the company in that case?" And she told me I could search for the address on Google!! Pretty shady if you ask me. This is bad business on the part of Shoes.com. I won't be doing business with them anymore and neither will my friends and family which amount to quite a few customers being lost on their end.

    I rarely take time to pass along valuable information to consumers, but I feel compelled to do so now. I had never ordered from this company before, and failing to research their ratings, I made the mistake of ordering some shoes from them. (I have ordered from 6pm.com countless times, so I figured that Shoes.com was a reputable company as well. MY bad!!) The shoes I ordered were name brand shoes, known for their comfort in helping those of us with feet issues. The price seemed good, so I ordered 2 pair of shoes. When I received them, I determined that the shoes were clearly defective/not true to size. (With labels like this, I immediately thought they were NOT genuine name brand products, as these 2 companies have a reputation to uphold.)

    I called Shoes.com and asked for a return label, as well as a FULL REFUND, since they had sent me defective, counterfeit products. They refused to return my shipping costs... AND on top of that, they charged me RESTOCKING FEES! This is criminal, and I have no idea how this scam company hasn't been removed by the Consumer Protection Agency. They don't do their job in protecting consumers from the millions of scammers out there. With all of these other bad reports about Shoes.com (on this site, AND other sites), something surely should have been done by now... but since that is unlikely, I AM HERE TO WARN CONSUMERS, NOT TO BUY FROM SHOES.COM. This is a total scam website. I hope this reaches many others. I do not wish to leave either my order number or receipt, as I don't want to subject anything personal that can be used by hackers. Just take me on my word, consumers!!

    I wish I had read the reviews prior to ordering. Because I had given these shoes as a gift to someone else and the box was inadvertently thrown away, the shoes could not be returned. The shoes were the wrong size and so could not be worn. We had all the other tags and info though. I know what company will never get any of my business again.

    Received 5 pairs ordered, as requested. Son did not like 3, so called in, while on computer, doing exchange. Had 1st person on Phone and this is how it went: Wanted to exchange to avoid the $7 dollar 'restock' charge. Total credit / exchange for $237.94. First Call: On phone with lady, I can see my order, with option to exchange on website - but I'm on phone to make sure correct exchange. She did something on her end while on phone, and I could not process the exchange on line. She says, "You have to pay for new order to exchange!” I say, "What?! You just locked me out of my own exchange. No, I will not pay again, when I am exchanging." She says, “Oh, OK, I will take the new order, when we receive all 3 pairs, we will ship out exchange."

    Gave her the items with codes and all description as appeared on site. She emailed 3 labels for 3 pairs. I informed will send all in one box, she replied, "Place only one label on box." Almost 2 hours on phone. 7/5/17 week later called as informed on 1st call. Spoke with Brian, check tomorrow, products not in. 7/6/17 spoke with Cary, informed I received one email, with one product return. She said waiting for 2 others, I informed, they all shipped together, and placed one label, other 2 inside box as instructed. She put me on hold and came back to say all 3 received.

    Have to wait 1-10 days for credit and no charge for restocking will be applied as I requested exchange. Expect 3-5 days for emails with credits to be received. Almost 2 hours on phone. 7/7/17 spoke with Regina. This is where it really gets hipped on the scheme. Received 3 emails and one charge with restocking fee $6.95. Asked why charged fee? Exchange items 2 'out of stock' and '1 unavailable'. What does Unavailable even mean? Put on hold. Comes back and she said, "Well, it seems we can ship the 'unavailable' item to reimburse the restocking fee but you have to pay again." 'Why? You have received the return 3 items, and I have no credit on my credit card." She again repeats the names of 'out of stock' and I said, I requested exactly that model. “Oh notes show different color." But you have to give your card to place the order as the credit is in process and we can void the restocking fee.

    So, they did not place the exchange as requested. They had 3 items returned. They charged me the restocking fee, even though I was told I would not be charged. Requested exchange, and it was not done. 2 hours on phone. Overall, I was polite, patient and laughed, and because of that, they were polite, but it is a scam. As principal, I am disputing the restocking fee with my CC, but the fact that 1st person did not allow me to do exchange to recharge me for new items; that 'all items' requested 'out of stock' and 'unavailable' to send exchange and then say, oh yes we can, you have to pay again, and all the time on phone.

    Save yourself the headache. Not worth it, and the shoes where not cheap, I ended buying all 5 because one happened to be on sale. If you want same shoes, at same price elsewhere, avoid this company at all means. The biggest rip off scheme, take into account, $6.95 x 5,000 people being scammed to buy in a day in the country = they make $34,750 a day on restocking scheme. As I told Regina before hanging up, “You lost a good customer, as you see I spent over $300 dollars in one purchase, as most purchases I do online for convenience and save drive time, for a $6.95 charge and exchange scheme. Shoes.com must be making great money out of this rip-off scheme."

    It is unfortunate as a first time user/customer of shoes.com that I would have to write a very dissatisfied review. I purchased a pair of Dansko Helen Sneakers for my mom as a gift on June 13, 2017. I expected the shoes to take longer than 5 business days, and possibly 10-14, but not anything more than that. After 10 days, June 23, 2017, I called 844-200-8414 and the representative provided me with the disclaimer that since the package is getting shipped to a P.O. Box that it would take a little longer than 5 days.

    After a few more days have passed, I tried tracking the package through the link provided in my email but I received an error. I knew it worked before because I checked the shipping status before making my first inquiry over the phone. I thought, it is possible that the website is going under development or something technical that will be resolved by the next day.

    I tried tracking the package again the following day and the same error occurred. I called 888-200-8414 to inquire about the status of the package on June 27, 2017. The gentleman I spoke to also had the same issue I did but somehow he was able to provide me with an update that it was last scanned in Illinois. I then shared my frustration of the process and asked how long it would be before the shipment makes it to my mother and he told me no later than July 5, 2017. I asked to speak with his supervisor and he said she was in a meeting but he'd have a supervisor call me. Gloria called a few hours after and left a voicemail. I didn't get a chance to call her back, hoping by July 5th the package would arrive and all would be well. Before we got off the phone, I mentioned I really wanted her to have it before the 4th of July and it reassured me The package will make it by July 5th.

    Today is July 6, 2017, and the package has not been shipped to the P.O. Box. Today's inquiry, I spent more than an hour on the phone, of which the first representative had me on hold close to 20 minutes trying to find a supervisor. The lady told me my package was delivered and should have received it June 22, 2017. I briefed her of my correspondence for the last few weeks and all she can provide me was the delivery date that was not accurate. I asked to speak with a supervisor and was placed on hold numerous times. I believe I asked to speak with her supervisor 4 times before finally getting through to a supervisor.

    I was then connected with Mrs. **, Customer Service, Supervisor in Boston, MA. During our interaction she started polite and professional. However, the more questions I asked and providing her details of each interaction I've had such as everyone I have had interactions with each has provided a different story and timeline, the more impatient she was getting.

    From my understanding of how she explained the delivery/shipment process is that my order was last scanned in Illinois on June 22, 2017 by shoes.com's carrier UPS. Since the shipping address is to a P.O. Box it has been turned over to USPS... which at the point, Customer Service cannot provide any details of the tracking status because it's not the organization's carrier.

    She suggested that I reach out to the local USPS and track the package myself. *As a customer, I strongly do not agree that I should follow up and track a purchase through a different portal/Organization. I recommended that she or the process that is currently at place should research where my purchase is and provide me with a follow up. As a customer, I am already frustrated and have been on the phone with shoes.com for over the allotted time I anticipated and now I am being directed to do more Research on a purchase I made over 3 weeks ago.*

    She also stressed that shoes.com mentions that shipments to a P.O. Box takes longer than physical addresses. She mentioned P.O. Box shipments take an additional 10-14 days. *I fully understand as this was a disclaimer I read when I purchased the item... however, I never read a disclaimer with specific timeframes for delivering to a P.O. Box. If I would have known it'd take up to 2 weeks (in this case it's been more than 3 and still don't have it) I could have easily purchased the Dansko's at a store and ship it myself! The issue I have is that I was reassured that I would receive the package no later than July 5, 2017.

    I asked her to send me an email with the tracking information, any process or steps I need to do to find my package since Shoes.com will not. She committed to sending it to me within and hour of disconnecting and it's past an hour and I do not have the email. I also recommended that the gentleman who provided me with incorrect dates about my package arriving no later than July 5th would be properly trained. Mrs. ** said she'd give me a follow call sometime after 12 p.m. EST on Saturday, July 8, 2017.

    Yesterday I ordered a pair of Skechers shoes from Shoes.com. I read the info about how it could take up to a week to receive my order unless I chose express delivery. So I paid $20 extra for express delivery which is supposed to get here today. I was curious to find out what time today I was scheduled to receive my shoes so I called Shoes.com. When I called I was instructed to press 0 for a representative. So I did. A man who couldn't speak English very well answered. When I asked him when I could expect my order today he hung up on me. So I called back.

    This time I got a girl who asked me for my order number which I gave. I asked her what time today I would get my item. She referred me to the small print which clearly states express delivery, which I paid for, would not take the wait. So I said I paid for express delivery. She didn't say anything. So I asked her if I could get my money back for next day delivery and she hung up! This so called company should be closed down.

Paid an extra $20 for 1-day shipping, but shoes are slated to take at least 4 days to get to me -- and customer service rudely told me that shoes take a few days to "process," so even if I ordered 1-day shipping, I was unreasonable to expect them to get to me in 1 or 2 days. Didn't I read the website, explaining processing time, they told me condescendingly... When I asked for refund on $20 shipping fee, they were real **. I have never been treated so badly by a shoe customer service department! Stupid on their part to lose a customer over $20. They could have just apologized and refunded that shipping fee.

    My wife and I bought 3 pairs of flip flops from Shoes.com and all three were wrong! We tried to call customer service, which reps were all rude and disrespectful. They were unwilling to waive the 6.99 restocking fee for EACH ITEM as per policy. So we had to find another product online to exchange for the product. We finally found a Patagonia jacket to make an exchange for to avoid the ridiculous restocking fee; however, when we finally received a call from the manager the following day, all Patagonia products were temporarily removed (HOW CONVENIENT).

    Long story short, this is by far the worst customer service/retail experience my wife and I have ever experienced in our 30 years of existence.

    Since the change from shoebuy.com to Shoes.com now they charge $6.95 for a restocking fee when it used to be free shipping and returns. I bought A LOT of my shoes at shoebuy.com because I'm a different shoe size depending on how the shoe is made. I'd buy the shoes in two different sizes and return the one that didn't fit. Looks like it's back to the bricks and mortar stores where I can actually try the shoes on. IMO, it's bad business practice to not post on the main web page that they now charge a restocking fee, but I guess like most companies shoes.com is greedy for gain and screw the customers. Won't be buying from them again, nor would I recommend them. Sad because I used to always give Shoebuy.com the highest rating.

    I ordered four pairs of shoes from Shoebuy. They initially charged me for all the shoes I had ordered as one lump sum. Then I noticed individual charges for the same shoes. One by one as they would ship I would see these additional amounts debited from my bank account. So in essence I was charged twice for the same shoes. It took about 5 days before the hold on my account for the "lump sum" amount was removed. I called them up and asked why they would do that? The answer was that's how they do business. In the meantime I did not have access to my money for five days. Either they bill for the whole amount on a multiple item order or they bill for the individual items as they ship (like Amazon), but they should not be able to do both.

    BEWARE! Shoebuy DOES NOT offer free returns. Received a pair of shoes and they were too small, went online to get a return label and that's when I noticed the company charges a $6.95 restocking fee for a return. When clicking on the website, in bold letters you will see FREE SHIPPING + Free Exchanges. That's the catch, it is only when you exchange an item that you do not have to pay a restocking fee. What's frustrating about the way they advertise is, unless you open the return policy page and scroll down is when you will see that ONLY an exchange is free of charge. At the very least, there should be an asterisk by the free exchanges which outlines the difference between an exchange and a return. The company must have hired an attorney to help them with this deception.

    As far as I'm concerned, this is FALSE ADVERTISING at its best. From now on, I will be ordering strictly from Zappos, a company which does offer totally free returns. Wish I had read the complaints about this company before ordering. Shoebuy has lost any future business from me and from anybody else that I will tell. Social network and word of mouth is a powerful tool nowadays and maybe Shoebuy will get the point that people don't appreciate being duped so they can make a sale.

I have had them a year so I can't return them, but I have never had a shoe do this. They must be seconds as Vaneli obviously didn't use the same material on the toe of both shoes. I have a narrow foot and am very hard to fit, so this is a complete disappointment. I would have returned the shoes within the return period but didn't need to as they matched when I got them.

    I bought 2 pairs of size 10 shoes April 2017. Arrived at different times. One was fine, the other were brand new, very cute shoes but they had sent me the wrong size. Instead of a 10 they sent me a 6. I called the same day they arrived to request an exchange for sending me the wrong size. They explained that the size 6 is the only size they have in stock so I could just return it. I had to argue with them and speak to a supervisor to get them to agree not to charge the $6.95 restocking fee since it was their mistake. I was emailed a UPS return label that I printed & boxed back up the shoes all in the same day they arrived. UPS picked them up from me 3 days later. Thought everything was fine UNTIL about a week later I received the shoes back from Shoebuy with a note saying the shoes had been worn so they couldn't give me a refund.

    I was really confused & upset because I knew I hadn't worn these shoes because I literally couldn't have worn them since they are a 6 and I wear a 10!! At this point I knew the company had screwed me and I was not going to get my money back. Even though they had a record that I had called the same day they arrived, that they had issued me a return label, that UPS had shipped them back 3 days later, none of that mattered. I called them and they claimed they had a picture of the shoes when they were returned and they show they have been worn. They are right about that. These shoes they returned to me have definitely been worn. But they are wrong that these were the shoes I had returned to them. The shoes that came to me were brand new. These shoes they returned to me were obviously not the same pair.

    I called them at least 3 times about the issue and they said they would do an "investigation" which consisted of them telling me about the picture. Absolutely nothing I can do. I am stuck with paying for a used pair of shoes not even in my size. Smh. My only explanation for this screw-up is that they mixed my shoes up with someone else's return. I have bought shoes with this company before and had good results. I never imagined something like this could happen. And if it happened one time, it can happen again. Won't EVER trust or buy from this company again! I advise others to stay away as well.

    UPS delivered my shoes.com order when I was not home. The shoes were stolen from the front porch before I returned. Customer Service at shoes.com informed me they will not refund my money and will not send a replacement because the shoes were delivered. (A Land's End order was also stolen that day but Land's End immediately resent the order at no charge to me. Clearly, the policy at shoes.com is not the industry standard.) I do not recommend shopping at shoes.com unless you have a secure way to take delivery. Otherwise, you will be robbed twice like I was - once by a thief and again by shoes.com.

    Placed order on website 7:30 am on a Monday. Website says when placing order before 9 am EST, will ship same day. 36 hrs later receive email saying no changes can be made and will soon be shipping. No one contacted me about delay, if they had I probably would have cancelled. Called customer service, (in another country) requesting explanation. Apparently shoe companies have delays in shipping, but no one bothers to tell you. A little leary after reading reviews here, what may happen if they do not fit. I have purchased from them a few years ago with no problem... this seems like a totally different company.

    I purchased a pair of Stacy Adams shoes - size 11 Wide from Shoebuy.com on 4/14/2017. When the shoe arrived the box was correctly marked "11 Wide" but the shoes were quite narrow; someone had placed a pair 11 Medium shoes in the box marked 11 Wide. Additionally with a ballpoint pen someone had marked a "W" over the "M" on the embossed size label inside the shoe. I called Shoebuy and informed them of this issue and I sent the shoes back for a full refund. Now this return was through no fault of my own but yet they wanted to charge me a restocking fee of $6.95. After finally agreeing not to charge the fee they credited my account and charged the fee anyway. Their word is not their bond; I have purchased many pair of shoes from Shoebuy.com over the years - but never again. I used to talk highly of Shoebuy, now I talk lowly. Honesty and integrity still have a place in this world - just not at Shoebuy.com

    NEVER EVER shop Shoes.com. They have the worst customer service I have ever dealt with. I am a pretty calm person, but they have unleashed this consumer's anger. They will not return a pair of shoes my husband bought ($163) because the box was damaged. NOT THE SHOES. The manager was so rude blaming me the customer, because I didn't tell them the box came damaged so they won't return them. I DIDN'T DAMAGE IT! I received it that way. They are rude, not customer focused and I hope NO one does business with Shoes.com. I told them I was going to let others know what a terrible company and she didn't care. So here I go.

    Spoke with two different ladies about returning my shoes and neither would let me take it up with a supervisor. First one put me on hold for 20 minutes so then I called back and the next person wouldn't let me talk with a supervisor. I had order a size 7 shoe and got a size 8. Just didn't feel it was fair for me to be charged 6.95 to get another pair shipped. Will not be buying from people like that again. If it had been my fault I would have been glad to pay. But I order a 7 and received a 8.

    I ordered a pair of shoes (tassels) on April 5. They were delivered to me April 10. I wore them part of the first day (April 11) only to watch the upper stitching break and come completely unraveled on one side. I requested and received a return label via internet and shipped them back in their original box, all materials included, April 12. They were tracked and received on Monday morning, April 17.

    When I spoke with the customer service rep (they're nothing more than a call center on the other side of the globe) I was assured that no re-stocking fee would be charged if the shoes were defective, and that a refund would be issued within 3-5 business days. Today marks 7 business days. I've spoken to two other "reps" already - April 24 and today, April; 25. In broken English both quoted me only scripted responses saying they could only tell me my return "was in process". I have a feeling I will never see any refund. DO NOT DEAL WITH THIS COMPANY!

    I bought a pair of Sketchers on Amazon. They were too tight and I need to get another size. I contacted the seller with no response. I then called the 888 customer service number, and their rep was horribly nasty to me and said no exchanges. There is nothing on the amazon site that says I cannot exchange AND it says you can do so, as long as it is in the required time frame. I have been buying on amazon for years with no problems. I do not recommend using amazon to purchase from Shoebuy. I just don't understand how they can expect people to get the right size all the time when you can't try it on first?

    I wish I had read reviews before ordering. The shoes did not fit, so I called to ask how to do an exchange. I followed the instructions exactly to avoid a restocking charge. I was charged anyway, so I called to inquire. I was treated very rudely by the man who took my call, who lectured me about the procedure even though I had just explained that I'd followed it. He then accused me of being rude and ended up hanging up on me. I also tried for two days to get through to an operator instead of going through the various options.

    I ordered 2 pairs of Keen boots for my husband for work knowing that keen is a reputable brand and since he has been wearing keens for years. Unfortunately one pair was defective. I contacted Shoebuy and was told to return the boots. I asked how long it would take to get a replacement and was told that as soon as they (shoebuy) received confirmation from UPS that they were shipped and new order would be placed and the boots would be on their way. They did state that the boots would be coming directly from the manufacturer so shipping time would be up to keen. I mailed the boots back on 4/11/17. On 4/17/17 when I had no boots and had not heard anything from shoebuy I contacted them.

    The first woman I spoke to indicated to me that they had not received them yet (she did have confirmation of them being shipped) and that there was nothing she could do until shoebuy received them in their warehouse. I explained what I had been told previously about there being a new order as soon as ups confirmed shipment but still said, "Nothing I can do." When I asked for a supervisor I was disconnected. This happened 5 times. FINALLY I was put through to Paul. He then told me I needed to place a new order and pay for the boots again. Otherwise I would have to wait 10-14 business days for the warehouse to process the return and after that they would place a new order.

    When I made it very clear I was not going to put out another $200 for boots I already paid for he said they would contact keen the following day. When I asked why they would call that day he stated keen was closed for patriots day. I called keen myself and verified that they were not closed, they were very much open and all that was required for a warranty claim is a phone call from Shoebuy to keen. I then called Paul back to see him, let him know he lied to me about keen and his story changed to their warehouse was closed. I agreed to give him till midday on Tuesday 4/18 to rectify the situation.

    At 330 I received a call from Paul stating that keen will not send out another pair without a new order. So I said, "OK place the order." Paul then told me I would have to pay 200. When I said, "I have already paid you. You have the defective boots in your warehouse. I am not paying you again." I was told I would have to wait 10-14 business days for the warehouse to process my returned boots.

    Being furious at this point I hung up and asked my husband to call. He did and spoke with a different supervisor named James. Who again said they wanted another $200. When he refused and said, "Just send me my damn boots" James stated they wouldn't be sending anything. Despite the fact I have already returned them to shoebuy. At this point I am left with no choice but to call my credit card company. And reverse the charges. SHOEBUY IS A GROUP OF LYING THIEVES. They will tell you whatever they have to until they get your money then you're on your own. If I lived in Massachusetts I would file theft charges.

    I have ordered from Shoebuy on several occasions without any problems but not so this time. I ordered 2 pair of shoes on 3/4/17 and received one pair right away. The second pair didn't arrive until a week later. I had already returned the first pair as they were too large and received a credit (minus shipping fee) immediately. Not so lucky with the second return. Returned via UPS on 3/16/17, tracking indicated the package was received by Ferris at the dock of Shoebuy 3/21/17, I sent an email to customer service concerning credit (or lack thereof) to my account on 3/29/17. Sent 2nd email to customer service concerning credit on 4/5/17, still no response.

    I finally received a reply to my email on 4/8/17 from Ashika; service@shoebuy.com that stated: "Our team has went ahead and forwarded an email to the warehouse regarding the status of your refund. An update should be provided within 24-48 hours." I sent a third email on 4/11/17, after the 48 hour period. Today, 4/13/17, I called customer service and asked to speak with a supervisor. The first person I spoke with (a woman) took my information and asked me to wait a moment which turned out to be more like 10 minutes before the phone went dead.

    I call back, this time I spoke with a man but he had a heavy accent and it was difficult understanding him. I asked for the supervisor and he put me on hold for a moment then returned saying that my return was under investigation and they would let me know once it was complete. I said "NO, you investigate all you want but I want my account credited with that return of $81.01 immediately." He asked me to hold again and returned a moment later and said I should get the credit within 1 to 2 business days. I asked him for the supervisor's name but I could not understand him so I asked that he spell it. I still could not understand but hope this is the last time I will have to deal with anyone at Shoebuy again.

I check my account and they charge me $129 plus The $119 they already charge me for the shoes. Apparently they charged me for a second pair shoes until they receive the original product (2 to 5 business days). Usually when you return something and I get scanned by UPS or FedEx the charges are returned. They obviously are not up to date on technology, and their customer service is exhausting.

    Twice my SO ordered a pair of running shoes in a particular color, and TWICE he was sent the wrong color!

He had to argue with two different reps that it was his fault that they (Shoebuy) sent the wrong shoes so why should he have to pay a restocking fee? Each rep told him they had to speak with a supervisor in order to not charge the restocking fees so then he had to insist that the reps speak with a supervisor in order to get the restocking fee waived. The first time the wrong item was sent; he did as instructed, printed a return label, and since my SO works 60 hours /week, I was inconvenienced having to drive to UPS in order to return the wrongly sent item.

    The second time he was sent a wrong item, he asked that they (Shoebuy) call UPS and have UPS come to our house to pick up the second wrong item that was sent to him. He was told by the rep named Kisa(?) that she would, again, have to speak to a supervisor, however, that all supervisors were very busy with other escalations (hmmm, probably because many other orders were incorrect) and that she would have a supervisor call him back. He questioned if that would actually happen, and Kisa(?) went on to promise him that she would speak with a supervisor and personally call him back within the next two hours. That never happened!

She then tried to explain their charge and credit system, which did not make a whole lot of sense, but I did what I was told, printed out a return label and wrote down the problem and mailed back. 10 days later I received a notice that they received ONE pair and was sending another one... Now I called, waited again for an operator, and was told that yes indeed they had received both pair, and they were sending me one back, they "did not find it defective".

    "What about the other pair," I asked. "Oh you got credit for it," she said. I replied that they did not send me a confirmation to that effect, again she said well they did and it would appear on my bill (Let's see). Now I just received a box from ShoeBuy and guess what??

The agent verified that the size was in stock and I was good to go. The agent sent me a label for my package and off they went.

I asked them why was I being charged for a refund when it was clear I wanted an exchange? All they kept saying (rudely mind you) was that they have a restock fee on returns and since my shoe was out of stock it became an return.

    I asked 5 different agents and a supervisor why no one called me and asked me did I want another color or shoe before processing me a refund and charging me 7.00 per shoe fee? Yes you guessed it. NO RESPONSE!! WHEN I TOLD THEM, "JUST FORGET IT. GIVE ME MY MONEY BACK THEN" and of course they refused. Said wait the 10 days and then call and replace another order and if I don't reorder in 10 days I will forfeit my return???!!!

    I purchased a pair of shoes from ShoeBuy because they were the cheapest price. First, it took three weeks to receive my order. In 2017, what company takes three weeks to ship a product? You can order from Amazon and get it the same day - with free shipping. When I finally got my shoes, I wasn't sure if I was happy with them. The fit was a little off and they were very stiff and uncomfortable. Shoes are something you need to actually wear to determine how the fit will be. Sometimes, they just need broken in.

    After wearing the shoes, I realized they are not going to work. Of course, ShoeBuy won't exchange them because they've been worn. That is a pretty unrealistic expectation. The brand of shoe is Keen, which I've worn for 10 years. I even contacted Keen, who takes back worn shoes, and they wouldn't take them back because they were purchased elsewhere. Now, I've wasted $100. I wish companies would stand behind the product and/or offer realistic return/exchange policies. Never again will I purchase from ShoeBuy.

    Customer service wonderful, I called Shoebuy.com. Customer service rep was absolutely phenomenal. He was kind. He was very helpful. His name is Johnny **. I bought a pair of Naot shoes. They were too small. I talked to Johnny. He sending me a return label and he was kind enough to put an order in for a different size and was even able to find a discount. I appreciate his time. He has great customer service. Thank you Shoebuy.com.

    I'm a first time buyer from Shoebuy. I order 4 pair of shoes Sunday and I receive today (Thursday). Only 4 days. That's great service. I was very hesitant due to all the negative reviews. But all shoes fit and they all are the right color. This was a great experience for me. I will continue to be a customer until further notice. Thanks Shoebuy for your great service. I'm very satisfied.

    This was definitely the worst online shoe buying experience we've ever had. It took a long time to receive the shoes. We had to call customer service, waited for 30 minutes, then the agent ("Marwick") was rude and unhelpful. We responded with kindness, but he appeared to not want to be at work that day. We will never buy shoes from this business again. There is a reason there are hundreds of negative reviews for this company.

    I bought these boots from Shoebuy for my girlfriend for Christmas. They were defective and the zipper didn't work. They have me the runaround for 3 months and then had the nerve to tell me I'd have to pay for the shipping to send them back. Customer service was rude and I never received my money back nor did I receive any email to send them back. I would not recommend Shoebuy to anyone. ** products. ** service. And the kicker? They don't even care.

    I ordered and received a pair of shoes specifically for diabetic charcot feet. Paid for and received item which with a simple look at would not fit my feet. Returned the item untouched. Was charged a $6.95 restocking fee. Any company I have ever ordered items that are required to fit have never charge a fee for unused items returned. I paid an upcharge for expedited shipment and I am not requesting anything back on that because that was a decision I made. The $6.95 however was never authorized by me and Shoebuy does not have my authority to keep my money without due process. I followed every step and every letter of the policy in my return and yet the predatory practices of Shoebuy.com led them to remove money from my PayPal account without my authorization or permission.

    Ordered a pair of shoes at 25% off. One shoe came in with two different color leathers (very close in color). Called customer service – had to wait over 20 minutes to reach an agent. I wanted an even exchange – no such thing. Would have to have them examine the shoes to ensure that my complaint was correct and then I would get a refund and I would have to place another order – of course it would not be at 25% off even thought they said that. I don't know how they would do that online. I cancelled the order since they can't do an even exchange in an expedient manner. In addition the agent was very rude. Bought from them before but they have changed. Never again.

    After years of buying from Shoebuy, I'm DONE. The company used to be like Zappos - free shipping and free returns. No more. $6.95 restocking fee even if an associate tells you "You won't be charged restocking fee!" They flat out lie and charge this ridiculous fee. And, I get emails saying 20% or 30% off which used to be GREAT. USED TO BE. More and more brands are not honoring these discounts. The company has become a joke. And they don't give a damn about their customers. They are ALWAYS right even when they're wrong! Stay away! Don't buy anything from them. I predict they're going to disappear soon anyway. No company in 2017 can treat customers this poorly.

    Put my order in, waited patiently for it to arrive. It did in 3 separate packages and on different days. Ok no problem. But my ordered skirt was not included. They sent a camisole instead. They had one number on tag on camisole and another number on bag. Trying to get my order corrected, they no longer have the skirt in my size and want to charge $6.95 restocking fee for me to return camisole??! For their mistake. Trying to get help on the phone was ludicrous. I sent 2 emails and have heard nothing back so disputed with my CC. Waiting for CC to rule in my favor. Their 'free shipping and free returns' is pretty much a lie. There's always a $6.95 restocking fee per item per return. I will never ever do business with them again.

    I ordered a pair of shoes from Shoe Buy. They were shipped to an overseas address, no problem with the shipping. When I received them, they were too small. Instead of waiting the company to send a return label 3-4 weeks and shipping them back another 3-4 weeks, I brought them home with me. I called the company to request a return shipping label. The person that I spoke with said that it was not possible to send a label to a different address and that I would have to pay the return postage as well as the restocking fee. There was no way to have them pay the return postage. I contacted customer service, via e-mail, and never got a response. NEVER AGAIN, WISH I HAD READ THE REVIEWS BEFORE ORDERING FROM THIS COMPANY.

    In the middle of returning shoes for a refund to onlineshoes.com, they were bought out by Shoebuy.com. However, there was no acknowledgment of this buyout by shoebuy.com, all of the returns to onlineshoes.com during the transition just magically disappeared. What a convenient scam.

    I ordered a size 38 regular in the Dansko Professional clogs, they sent me a size 38 wide. While I can understand the confusion, I emailed to get some clarification on how to return properly. I never received a response. I then called and was on hold for over 45 minutes. I was okay with them sending me the correct pair, but of course they had to charge me first... which is outrageous. However, I complied just to get the shoes I desperately need for work.

    I received my new shoes and NO RETURNS shipping label. I called AGAIN and was told that I would take a 7 to 10 day waiting period for the label to be shipped out because they had no record of the return at all. I asked if they could expedite the shipping label, and I was told, "No, because the shipping label takes times to print out." (It took them time to print out the label for the second pair of shoes and I already received them, so I am not understanding their logic.) I asked to speak with a supervisor, waited for 10 minutes on hold, only to be told that the supervisor was too busy to take my call and that there were no changes made at all. So here I am, stuck with two pairs of shoes, one being wrong, and I only ordered one pair from the get-go. NOT TO MENTION, THIS WAS THEIR FAULT!!!

    I ordered 2 pairs of shoes from this company. The first pair took a week to receive though it was only the next state over. They ended up being too small and had to return them. The refund took two weeks and numerous phone calls to get. The 2nd pair ended up fitting thankfully. The slow shipping and the return fees are a joke. This company is a absolute joke. Please avoid at all cost. Spend more money at other places and have a easier process.

    Purchased a pair of shoes that did not fit. Followed instructions on website to return by emailing for an RA authorization. After waiting for 3 days with no response I called asking for an RA. Shoes were returned and I paid for shipping. What is really outrageous here is their 20% 'restocking charge'. Seriously? Shoes were never worn and returned as quickly as I could. The shoes I never wore cost me $28 plus shipping. This company is a total rip off.

I was never contacted or received any confirmation in my email so I called after 2 1/2 weeks to inquire about my refund, after two days of getting the runaround they finally informed me they had received my return and already restocked the black shoes but would not refund my money until I returned the shoe box that the black shoes came in. I was never notified of the mix up but they did offer to send me a return label so I could return the empty box. I had to filed a dispute with my credit card company to get my money back.

    I returned a pair of shoes 3 weeks ago. Still no refund and for two days their website has been down. I sent a return to the UK the same day and received my credit a week ago (different company). I will give it one more week and will then submit it to my bank. They will credit my account if the company doesn't respond and if they do respond it will likely cue the company to credit my account. This is not a typical experience with online shopping. Very disappointed (and a little nervous their website is down).
