    I was shopping on Zulily website the week after Thanksgiving, trying to purchase some great deals. I had several items in my basket, getting ready to check out, when up pops a message!!! "Congratulations you have won a $100.00 credit" to my account!!! Needless to say I was so thrilled, because I am a senior citizen, and I need to watch what I spend very carefully. I went back to shopping and when I went to pay using my gift credit, Zulily had removed it from my account. Yes, I am furious with them, and I will never shop with them again. If this is how they do their loyal customers, they will have to look harder. They have lost my acct, my daughter's, and a few more I can name. I have tried to call them but they will not take my calls. Zulily, shame on you!!!

    I ordered a king size comforter set and received a queen size. Their mistake, so I thought they would correct it. Nope. It doesn't matter. They only give refunds in store credit, minus return shipping. No way will I ever order anything from them again. I have called them four times and every time they tell me I should see a full refund to my Paypal account within 5-7 business days. Every time it is a lie. Do not deal with this company. Their photos online do not accurately represent the cheap overseas product you will receive, and you will have to fight to get your money back. I have opened a claim in Paypal and hope they will stand by their policies.

    I ordered a personalized jumpsuit for my daughter that was super cute based on the item's pictures and descriptions. However, the design I received was not at all the same size as the picture. On the site it shows the design to take up the full chest, but what I received is about half the size and tiny. Pretty disappointed since the whole point of it was the design with my daughter's name on it.

    I’ve had to return 4 out of 5 items I purchased from Zulily. The quality of each was extremely poor and are most likely ‘seconds’. In addition, the fact that they will not refund your money but rather issue a credit is unacceptable. Why would I want to buy more junk and have to pay to return it?

    Recently, I Purchased three pairs of leggings on a special sale. They were exactly what I expected till I put them on. I ordered a small which is normally what I wear. I was greatly disappointed when I saw Leggings looked more like straight legged pants than leggings. The product itself is OK, but if you wear a small size 2 or four forget about it unless you want baggy leggings. Also, the waistband is like one in pajamas. Also they have a tiny time frame to return the product. Unfortunately, I happen to be recuperating from surgery and can’t meet their guidelines. I will probably just take them to a consignment shop.

    Zulily is no longer a good place to shop. I purchase the green market toy for my granddaughter. When I received it, the toy was missing the large green tray, the cash register was broke, and the stickers torn. I contact CS and was told they couldn't help me since the toy was purchase from another manufacturer on their site. I had to reach out to them. I explained to the lady that I paid Zulily, not some company in China. After calling 3 times they finally told me to send pictures and they will try to resolve the problem. To this day, I haven't received my money back nor a response.

    I also purchase a yellow winter coat size 2xl. My size is a large. I love my outer garments large. When I received it, it came a small bag like a shirt. The coat was so little, I couldn't even zip it up. I gave it to my daughter who wears a x-small. It fit her perfectly. I start notice lately, the products that I purchase are poorly manufacture or cheaply made. CS use to be very helpful. Now they are rude and not willing to help. I don't know what happen to Zulily. Maybe they are under new management. I know I won't be shop there anymore.

    This site used to be very nice to shop at. Now we are getting rude customer service and no help at all. I purchased some items and had a very hard time trying to return them. I kept them and am trying to give them away. I also tried talking to them on their chat and since they didn't want to deal with it they just ended my chat.

    Overall I would not recommend Zulily because of their return policies. If you buy bras you cannot return them even though you have not worn them at all. Most of the items I purchased were not quality. Some seemed unfinished! Even though you are returning unused, still packaged clothing items on your own dime. They will charge you $8.95 to restock for every 5. If you return 6 you will be charged another $8.95. The items I purchased were between $3 and $25 but ranged in price from $10-$70 supposedly. POOR QUALITY OVERALL!

    I’ve shopped with Zulily for the last year and a half. I’ve never had any major problems until now. Actually, they used to refund me even if I just called them and told them what was going on and didn’t always ask for an email with pictures. I ordered 4 Sunshine Swing dresses for my daughter early Oct. these dresses shipped directly from China. When they arrived earlier this week (mid Nov) one dress has major discoloring on it and was not true to size. The other 3 dresses were also not true to size and ran at least one size bigger than what was ordered.

    My daughter has been in this size for over a year and these were much larger than previous dresses/outfits we ordered. The material also felt like Spandex and not polyester so when I looked on the inside of the tag I saw these are actually made to order because the tag is stamped “made Oct 2018”. So I notified Zulily about the discolored dress. They told me they were going to refund me the total purchase price of the dress back to my PayPal account $15.69. They sent $5.09 back to my PayPal account and sent the other $10.60 back as a store credit. They told me I could return the other 3 dresses and they would give me a refund via store credit of $39.06 after they deducted the shipping fees from the store credit refund. I inquired why because this has never been an issue before on getting a refund and most of the time I’ve never even had to return the item. They told me they updated their return policy.

    There was nothing in their return policy about only receiving a store credit. I think they’re wanting to stiff people during the Christmas season by not refunding them and issuing a store credit so they have to shop with them. I filed a dispute with PayPal and will be closing my account with them. Most of the customer service reps that send emails don’t understand anything you’re asking and just copy and paste the same email. I wouldn’t shop again with Zulily if it was the only way to online shop. I wouldn’t recommend it to someone I hated.

    Over the past year, I have purchased many items based on the info provided on Zulily site but when they finally arrive, in reality bear little resemblance to the Zulily description. When I call Zulily to complain about the misrepresentation, they blame the "vendor" and promise to "note my feedback" but the description for the item online remains the same. Customer care is inconsistent, often rude and today they refuse to provide me an email contact for a company president or director... Telling me "We are all managers." The only recourse with the misrepresented item is to mail it back to Zulily at YOUR cost and they will give you a credit to try your luck again.

    In Canada, bait and switch is illegal... The customer rep told me today that online shopping can be risky but they refuse to accept responsibility for the misrepresentation they enable. Save your money for the many other reputable online companies out there who have the integrity to stand behind what they print on their site and the professionalism to stand with their paying customers.

I placed my order 10/18/18 and not until payment had been made and I received my confirmation, was I informed the "anticipated ship date" would be 11/2/18. That's 2 weeks before shipment even begins. I received one order on 11/7 and the other portion on 11/11/18. Totally unacceptable. I will not order from Zulily again unless it's a GREAT bargain and I'm in no hurry to receive it.

    I recently started ordering from Zulily because the clothes looked stylish. I have had to return several of the items due to poor workmanship. Most puzzling is the requirement that tags must be still on the items, yet the last 3 items that I'm returning have had the care instruction tags cut off (that is, by previous purchasers who have returned the items after removing the tags). The return fee of nearly $9 is outrageous. The only items I've been happy with are those that are name brands that I trust. I'm giving up after I spend the credit I have from the returned items (no refunds are given). Going to stop ordering from Zulily. Save you $$$.

    I've been shopping on Zulily for a few years. There are some pros and cons, but my overall experience is good and I continue to shop with them. I mainly buy women's clothing and some household items. Pros- There are some great deals available. No, not everything is a great deal, but if you do your research before buying you will know what is and isn't. They have items you either won't find, or it would take you forever to find, in your local stores. Customer service is responsive and willing to resolve issues. If you get a damaged item or something that is different than the description they WILL either ship another item, have you return it (for free), or simply refund your money. I've had numerous experiences as such and they have always resolved the issue in a day or two.

    They offer "smart-pay" sometimes, which lets you pay 1/2 up front and 1/2 a month later. Item delivery time is almost always what was promised. Each item listing shows an expected ship date. Yes, sometimes it is listed as 3 weeks away or whatever, but they DO state that in the listing. A very few times I have not received something by the promised date, but not often. If you read the listing you will know what to expect and won't be disappointed.

    Cons- Yes, clothing sizing can be tricky. They do have size charts for each item, which are accurate for the most part, but sometimes off. If the item runs small or large they sometimes list that in the details. If I am worried about sizing I order according to the size chart then take a screenshot of the listed measurements. If I get an item that doesn't fit and the measurements listed are wrong I can then contact customer service and they let you return it for free. Everyone's body is different and you run the chance of clothing not fitting well when ordering from ANY online retailer, this is not unique to Zulily or their items. There is a return shipping charge of $8.95 if you simply don't like something and want to return it.

    Again, not all online retailers offer free returns, so this is not unique to Zulily. Tip- if you pay with Paypal and return something you can use Paypal's return shipping refund policy and get that money back. I've done it and it works. Once in a while you get a damaged item. Contact customer service and they will take care of you. Sometimes you have to wait up to a month for the item to ship. Again, this expected ship date is listed in the item details, so you should be aware before you even order. Most items ship much quicker than that, and most often even before the listed date. If you are a conscientious consumer and do your research on items before you buy and read the listing details thoroughly so you can set your expectations accordingly you should have no issues doing business with Zulily.

    I bought a Bumbo magenta changing pad for an amazingly good deal. Usually, it's at least $70, but I got it for a little over $46 with shipping. I placed the order on a Sunday and received it on a Tuesday. Excellent shipping speed with tracking details. However, the Bumbo came unboxed (inside of the shipping box). The original box that it was in was flattened. It appeared to be an item that was returned by someone else but was not put in its original packaging. It was pretty unacceptable. I don't know if the changing pad had already been used, but it looked clean so I'll be keeping it. Based on other Zulily reviews, I am afraid if I return it, I'll never see my money again.

    My experience with Zulily has been fabulous. Yes I will have to agree about their return policies? Also, does take (sometimes) so long to receive the item? I have ordered many things from them, and yes I have had good luck and some bad luck, but, mostly a lot of good luck, more than likely. It's too large then small so I give it to my sister because of their shipping policies. Cost more to ship back than it does for the product itself? I will continue to order from them. When I speak to customer service I mostly have a very nice one but the other day I did have one that didn't seem concerned about my problem. So, if you order from them beware that it does take awhile to get it. I love their prices and have purchased many cute items from them.

    I ordered 3 pairs of shoes of the same brand. First pair looked nothing like the photo so I requested a refund as well as not having to pay the restocking fee of $8.95. They agreed to refund me and not charge the restocking fee for the first pair of shoes, once the shoes reach them. I printed the return label that had tracking numbers for both UPS and USPS, and I packed up the shoes. When the other pairs arrived in 2 separate shipments, they didn't fit and I followed the return procedure and got a second return label that had 2 tracking numbers on it... one for UPS and one for USPS. I took the packages to UPS and they said that the tracking numbers were not valid or acceptable, they needed to start with "1Z" and my labels started with "z".

    I contacted Zulily by e-mail about this problem and they asked questions about what I was returning. Then they sent me one label for just one pair of the shoes. Again, the label UPS tracking number starts with "Z" and not "1Z" as UPS said it must. So frustrating! I will try to take the packages to USPS and pray that they accept them. If this eventually works out, I will have a store credit and an actual partial refund as they agreed. Have to make sure I spend the store credit on something that doesn't have to fit. Maybe a pillow or something. I cannot recommend Zulily because while their return policy sounds decent, it is impossible to actually carry it out.

I highly recommend all of you not waste your time with them. Another order I had with them had two items. They shipped one and cancelled the other after 3 weeks. Not worth it!!!

    VERY BAD experience. MAJOR problems with 4/5 items. And NO exchange possible, so waste of money and time. Hunter Green Two-Way Zip-Up Hoodie: "bat sleeves" not mentioned in the description, nor shown on pictures + sleeves too short (close to 3/4). Teal & Mustard Paisley Cowl-Neck Dress: ink spots everywhere outside the patterns (dress ruined) + turtleneck way too large and long (wouldn't fit any neck) + cheap fabric. Mid Gray Capri Leggings: too green, doesn't fit gray clothes. Heather Black Daisy Shift Dress - size M: HUGE, fits like Extra Large + there is a big rectangle area surrounding the sunflower, DARKER grey than the rest of the dress, instead of just a sunflower print. (Dress ruined). The only item in good condition that fits description, size and color is a t-shirt.

    Let me start by saying I understand that Zulily works differently than other sites, but after receiving my very first order, I will NEVER shop with them again! I had been tempted to shop on their site several times in the last year or so, but I was always turned off by the shipping charges. Well, I finally gave in and went to town! I ordered 3 pairs of fairly pricey boots, 1 pair of wedge sandals, 5 of a blazer I loved in various colors and patterns, and several other random items. Yesterday, I received the blazers, which the site had recommended ordering a size up, so I did. Well, I'm swimming in them! I had seen that Zulily didn't offer refunds, but all I wanted was the same 5 blazers in a smaller size. Nope! Apparently, this is impossible.

    My only option is to pay to ship them back to receive store credit minus the shipping I already paid. Then, I'll have to pay shipping a THIRD time to get whatever I use the store credit on! Are you kidding me?! YOU'RE GOING TO CHARGE ME TRIPLE SHIPPING BECAUSE I ORDERED SOMETHING EXACTLY AS YOUR SITE SUGGESTED?! THIS IS RIDICULOUS!! I chose to keep these 5 blazers that I will never wear since Zulily is an absolute ripoff, I'll NEVER shop with them again, and I'll be sure to post on all sites and tell everyone I know to stay far away from this racket! BUYER BEWARE: If you purchase something that doesn't fit you, you may end up paying more than it's worth in shipping costs just to get something else. Oh, and that's after waiting a month to get it!!

    I mostly order my 5-year-old and 6-month-old daughter's clothes and shoes from Zulily. Occasionally I order toys or other products but mostly just for my girls. The deals you come across can range from great to ok, to same as a Marshall's or TJ Maxx. I love going on every day to see what's new as it changes daily. I love some of the unique and trendy things on the site that I don't find in their sizes in a traditional store (I may be a little obsessed, but that's another topic lol). Sometimes I have received things that were not the same as the picture when I ordered, or slightly damaged. Maybe a little stain or something. Returning can be a waste, you can only return certain items and those items only get you a store credit.

    So if you are planning to return something (return shipping cost 8.95 for up to 5 items and an additional 8.95 after that) because it doesn't fit or you just decide you don't like it, and it cost 12.99, well then it doesn't even pay to return it since you would only wind up with a few dollar store credit. I literally just got off the phone with a Zulily rep because I placed an order for about 7 things for my daughters, and when I received them, a Christmas dress I ordered had some black stains on a white Santa face. The item was a non-returnable item, but I explained the situation to the rep (a very nice man) and he quickly apologized, told me there was no need to send it back and that I can keep it to do whatever I want with, he also gave me the option to have the full purchase price credited in my original form of payment, or a store credit.

    Since he saw that I ordered that specific dress in 2 different sizes (matching dresses for my girls) he apologized that the dress was no longer available to send me a replacement but gave me an additional store credit (on top of my purchase price) for my inconvenience and disappointment that they won't be able to match in those outfits. Now I can put the dress in the washing machine and see if it comes out since it is mine to keep!

    All in all, I am completely happy with my Zulily transactions, products, and customer service experience! For the couple of mistakes or damaged things I received, I was immediately compensated and then some, all with a pleasant attitude! I realize this review was a bit long, thank you for reading it and I hope it gives a little insight into the experience of shopping with Zulily.

The leggings were not the style I thought I had ordered and the tunic was not of good quality plus the measurements were off. Didn’t fit. What I didn’t expect was only getting a credit for the return. A credit is of no value to me as I will not order from them again. Very disappointing experience. I got what I paid for cheap clothing.

    Yes shopping is $8 each way. You want to be careful to know your measurements and read the size charts to avoid having to return items. Some items I order are coming from China, Turkey, etc. so they take along time... three to four weeks or so. I was warned before purchasing that this would be the case. I have had no issues getting the right size shoes so far though I think it could be a problem when doing European sizing. In that case, I wear 7 1/2 us and the site recommends a 38. I typically choose 39 which is what I wear for XC ski shoes. Sometimes I think I'm getting something different than what I thought o was going to get... like a true plaid dress instead of a plaid print on polyester. If I had read the fabric description I would have been fine. Returns can be carefully grouped together to save shipping cost. What I save in the overall cost more than covers the occasional return.

    I do have problems with the site more than other sites in double ordering things. I have no problem cancelling this as long as I discover this within a day. I double check everything now to prevent this. I have had issues with an item or two not being sent with the shipment but Zulily has always resolved the issue with me no problem. I do notice that items sometimes go to the wrong post office and then get delayed a day or so. It always eventually comes. I look at these issues as part of the experience of getting some great bargains and having a clearing house of stylish items. It has been worth the glitches so far. It certainly takes longer to get items than through most other delivery stores these days but if you are looking for stylish items at low prices, this is a great place to go. I'd skip it for routine items and for anything you need right now yesterday.

    I’ve shopped with Zulily for years and have not had any major issues till now. I ordered multiple items including family Christmas pajamas for half of my family. My sister ordered the other half. I paid by Apple Pay which was an option and my ordered was canceled. When I emailed Zulily it was told it was my financial institution's fault and when I pushed back and said no the person finally admitted they were not able to take Apple Pay even though it was an option. So now I’m out all my products I ordered which by the way were for Christmas pictures and all they offered was a $10 credit on a $265.98 order that was their fault even though they tried to blame my bank. I would’ve liked them to try to work the store to get my order or at least more of a credit but when I asked what else could be done since Zulily was at fault I received no answer.

    I randomly came across these reviews on Zulily and saw how negative they are. So, I wanted to add a different perspective. I shop on Zulily a lot. Probably too much. The deals can be great or they can be just okay. On a rare occasion I can find it cheaper elsewhere, so it's important to do your research. And since the brands are all different, the quality is going to vary a lot. I mostly shop for Children's clothes on there and the quality has been pretty good, occasionally something with poor quality will come my way, but my toddler doesn't care much.

    For myself, I just really make sure to stick with reputable brands. If you aren't familiar with the brand you can always do a Google search first. The slow shipping doesn't bother me, but I guess I'm used to it. I only had one real problem and that was with an item from China (I didn't take my own advice on doing research first). It was one of those Little Mermaid tail blankets for my daughter. Anyway, it took so long to get to us that I didn't think it was coming. I asked for a refund and they gave it to me right away. It did end up coming in eventually and it was very low quality. But, I already had my money back, so I didn't really care. Long story, short: if you Google the reviews on the brand you are interested in, you'll be okay.

    I have ordered 20 or so items from Zulily in the past. Items for holiday gifts, clothes for my kids, character items my kids like. While it seems so much slower than ordering from a 2 day shipping type place because you have to wait for the shopping time to end, the product to be I don't know "picked" from the source, then sent to Zulily then sent to me... they keep me updated each step of the way.

    I appreciate the chance to scan and shop items in a variety of categories in one place. I also kind of like the time limit as I can spin my wheels looking for a PERFECT thing sometimes when I should just decide yes or no and be done with it. Also a big draw is that they are more unique things than just going to my local red or blue store if you know what I mean. The quality of the products has been great. The items arrive packaged well for what I ordered (including some posters I was worried about). And occasionally they have personalized options which were awesome.

    I ordered a dress from zulily which was profoundly too small even though I ordered one size up. So small, the zipper had a 6" gap. Tried to return it online to discover they were charging $8.95 to issue a return label! I originally paid $6.00 for shipping so I called them to find out what's going on. Our return policy is clearly stated under RETURNS I was told.

    Be aware: "An $8.95 shipping & handling fee applies for return requests of one to five items, and is deducted from your estimated store credit total. An additional $8.95 will be deducted for returns of six to 10 items, and again for 11 to 15 items, continuing in increments of five. The shipping & handling fee includes labor and material costs, packaging and restocking fees, and it may exceed the actual cost paid by zulily to its carrier to send the item(s) back to zulily. Your estimated store credit total, minus the shipping & handling fees, will be shown before you submit your return online." It arrived in a light plastic bag which certainly did NOT cost them anywhere near $6 or $9 for postage.

I've not had any problems with returning items and they have always notified me when my orders have shipped. On the returns they have given me a refund plus about $5 credit because of the inconvenience. They sent a wrong item once and told me to keep it or give it away and gave me $5 credit. I called once to change the size of the item I ordered and the customer service rep took care of it while I was on the line. As far as having to wait for the purchases to arrive, if I see that it is imported then I know it will take longer. It is not a matter of life or death so to me it is no big deal.

My question, which has of yet gone unanswered, it, why would Zulily knowingly sell rancid perfume?

    Zulily, and another site Dresslily, are companies located in China. Their website is hosted on Amazon Web Services, a division of Amazon that provides secure virtual web servers for hosting websites of many large retailers and companies. They obfuscate the fact they are in China on their website and use a US customer service phone number. Online orders are shipped in bulk from China to a US distribution destination, where they are then sent via US mail, FedEx, UPS or DHL. The reason it takes so long to get an order is because they are sent in bulk by maritime shipping (Container Ship), which can take up to a month to travel from China to the US.

    I discovered this when I placed an order with Dresslily.com. I ordered 2 shirts and it took over a month for them to arrive. My medium shirts are a slightly tight fit, but passable. One shirt was cotton and made in India and the other was 100% polyester, which may be my mistake for not checking the specs carefully before ordering. The goods are made in China or India and are sized smaller than for a normal US person. That's why many complain that they received the wrong size.

    I'm not sure how they handle returns. Recently on the local Atlanta news, there was a Chinese company website who was using a US friend of the owners, who asked if he could use her Atlanta address for returns. She wasn't expecting the deluge of return packages that were delivered daily to her house. Most were clothes. Her whole house and garage were full of returned merchandise, and she had no idea what to do with them. She asked her friend to stop sending them to her address. She started donating all the goods to Goodwill. Be careful if you use these sites, be prepared to wait a month or more for delivery, and check the specifications of what you order carefully.

    Zulily Customer Service is the WORST I've ever encountered anywhere! I ordered $200+ worth of clothing from Zulily (first time customer). Items arrived within a reasonable time, but none of the items fit (their sizing runs small compared to other retailers) so I returned everything, all together in one box, after having received a Return Auth # from customer service. Within a few weeks, they gave me store credit for one item, so I KNOW they received everything, but they acknowledged only that one item. I contacted Customer Service (by email) and asked for a refund for the remainder of my order. They said they'd issue a refund promptly once the items were received. I explained that the items HAVE been received because they were all sent in one box and I got a Zulily credit (not a refund) worth about $40 for one of the items. They say they'll look into it.

    Weeks go by. I contact them asking for status update. The entire process starts again from the beginning. I give them a copy of previous communication, and they say they'll look into it and get back to me. This goes on for months and months. My request is escalated through management (or so they claim), but each time the response is "Once we receive your items we'll issue a refund."

When I sent them an email with the picture of what was sent and what it was actually supposed to spell they offered me a courtesy store credit. Once I told them I’d like my refund sent to my bank account because I no longer wish to do business with Zulily or order anything else from their website due to such an inconvenience, I was still told that I’m being offered a courtesy store credit and that the name says what it is supposed to say.

    If it did say what it should then why are you offering a credit? Makes no sense, I pointed out that it looks nothing like the picture and the letters are not visible like on the advertised picture! I even went as far as to send the picture they have online along with the picture of the poorly made plaque they sent me that took over a month to receive when it looked like it took 2 hours to make. This company is a joke and I will never order anything from them again!

    The details are very vague as to when the item will be shipped. If you can they may say 4 to 6 weeks but that information is nowhere to be found. Then you are asked to make the concern to service@zulily.com. It appears the business model is not great. The clothes are nice but it’s not clear about order information. When you click to order it is processed immediately without given detailed information. Apparently they store your credit card information. I am not please with getting the orders 4 to 6 weeks.

    I was reading some of the reviews for Zulily on here and had some concerns, but I went ahead and ordered anyway. I purchased a king-sized comforter for just under $30 (one of those sale of the day things). My order arrived within a week. The quality was good (better than I thought it would be for the price - normal price $99). I had no problems with purchasing from this site and will most likely purchase again if I see another product that is priced right.

    In May, several orders were placed on my Zulily account that totaled over $1,000 within a span of a few hours. Since I have alerts set up on my accounts, I called both my credit card company and Zulily to advise them of the fraud. My credit card company cancelled my account and issued a new card. Zulily said they would cancel all transactions (which were addressed to Cypress TX - which should have set up a flag?) and they also closed my account. However, during the next billing cycle, Zulily charged my credit card for some of the items. I had to call my credit card company again and dispute the charges.

    I called Zulily and they said that disputing the charges was the best route. My Credit Card company is going to take another week to investigate. While waiting on hold for Zulily, their policy is to take orders and then place the order with the vendor to make the items, so shipping is usually delayed for a few weeks. How did these items get expedited to ship the next day? Something doesn't seem quite right that I should have to keep beating back these fraudulent charges.

    I have been shopping through Zulily for several years. I have been mostly satisfied with their service and products. I have bought clothing (mostly), shoes, novelty items, watches... I have clothing that I bought years ago that I still wear today. I love that I can buy unusual items I cannot find at others stores. With that said, not all products I have received have been perfect. The thing to remember is that Zulily sells items for other companies. The products are not their own. This is the reason the quality may differ, and refunds may be difficult. They get "bargain" prices for those products for a short period of time. Many times, if you research the product you are buying you might find more info. Another thing to consider is that this is an online store. I have bought clothing which didn't fit as I had expected, but that is the chance I take from buying online. When buying anything online, a buyer should take this into consideration.

    Zulily has great photos of its merchandise, and uses product descriptions. Unfortunately, shipments take forever and the merchandise is usually not what I expected.

    I've been hesitant about ordering from Zulily for years but finally gave in because they had a bunch of cool graphic tees I couldn't find anywhere else. The first order I placed, I just bought one t-shirt because I wanted to see how the process goes and also see what the brand is like in terms of quality and sizing. It turned out fine; yeah, it took much longer than most companies you order from online but it was within the window so no biggie. Fast forward a month or so. I placed two orders on June 9th. For reasons that are beyond me, all the items (except one) show as shipping on June 27. That's 18 days after the order was placed - assuming they even stick to that timeframe. They claim their time frame for shipping is 10-14 days, so already that's an issue.

    What's much worse, though, and really disconcerting is that the one item that has supposedly shipped and comes up with a tracking number on their website doesn't even look like it has actually shipped! The item supposedly shipped on June 19 but when I clicked on the link, it takes me to the UPS website and says that UPS was notified of a shipment being created... the end. CLEARLY NOT ACTUALLY IN TRANSIT. So I'm going to wait until the end of the month and if all my items aren't in transit with a verifiable tracking number showing updates that they're heading my way, I'm filing a claim and a complaint with the BBB (not that this will do much as we all know!). While I understand the reasoning behind their business model, the prices are THAT amazing to justify the ridiculously long wait times. It smacks of a pyramid scheme to me so this will definitely be my last time ordering from them.

    1st experience: Ordered two comforter sets. Waited 2 weeks, no shipping confirmation but I had been charged for them. Finally called. "Oh, we cancelled your order the items were damaged in transit". I was never notified of any of this and only when I called was my purchase refunded. 2nd experience: placed order on June 1, finally after 2 emails and a phone call was told items would not ship until June 20. Customer service rep was rude, condescending and frankly no help at all! Told me items take 8-14 days to ship. I told him this equated to 18 days. He laughed and said... "Oh well, what do you want me to do?" I will never ORDER FROM THIS COMPANY AGAIN!

They scammed me out of a purchase around $24 and kept the shipping for a re-stocking fee plus customer service said I can either get the $15.99 for the dress for store credit or only get the $7.04 back on my original payment method.

However if you do want a long shipping time Wish is probably a cheaper option and you still get your stuff in the same amount of time. They need to revise their shipping if they want to stay afloat.

    Zulily is an online department store with many categories of goods available for sale. I have ordered jewelry, outdoor decor items, and clothing. Jewelry and outdoor decor have been received as described and I felt I got good value at a discounted price point. A couple clothing items have been OK for fit, price and wearability but certainly not the quality I was expecting from the descriptions. Most of the clothing is another story. In the past few months I have seen several items online that looked nice and I ordered them...4 blouses and a pair of capris.

    1st blouse- very nice online. I even read the reviews by other purchasers and saw the item fit small...so I ordered a larger size. It arrived...the color was nice, the cut was nice but the size was huge. I contacted Zulily to let them know how I felt and they surprised me. They were very understanding, sorry for my experience and offered to post a credit to my account. They even suggested not to return the item since it would cost so much, instead, donate the item to a local charity. I did that. I also sent them an email commending them for such wonderful customer service, a response quite uncommon in today's corporate culture.

    2nd blouse...Now that Zulily has been so kind as to credit my account with the purchase price of blouse #1 I decide to order another blouse. Again, the picture online is lovely, cut, color, fabric. I ordered the blouse in a floral with white background (my 2 options were black or white background). Well, it arrived and I had never seen that shade of white. It was so "not white", more of a very bad yellow. I am disappointed and will be giving the blouse to charity. I did not contact Zulily this time.

    3rd blouse...I ordered this the same time as blouse # 2. It was very nice online and I ordered it according to the size chart supplied with the item. I received the item...the color was exactly like in the picture and fabric was exactly as described. I'm not sure I have ever ordered something online and had it arrive being such a close match to the photo. Imagine my disappointment when I tried the blouse on and it was HUGE. I'm not talking a little big, I mean HUGE. This will also be donated to Charity. I'm sure there is someone out there who will be very happy with this item. 4th purchase...a pair of white capris. Again, online the color was very white and the color choice for ordering was white...not off-white, winter white, sort-of white, or any other white...just white. The product I received was nowhere near white. Again, a disappointment and this item will also be going to the local charity.

    5th item...another blouse. This was an item I had eyed online for some time and was very hesitant to make yet another mistake. But once again I ignored the my own reservations and ordered. The item was described as polyester/spandex; appeared to be a soft, draping fabric in pretty muted floral tones. Once again I ordered based on the attached sizing chart. This story is becoming all too familiar...the item arrived today and I am beyond disappointed, it is NOT like the beautiful top in the picture. It is much too large, a cheap, scratchy knit with a muddy-colored floral print on a greeny/yellow background. I believe I can say I have honestly tried to see value in the items from this discount site but will not be ordering clothing from here in the future. As I write I have donated $100.00 plus (not including shipping) to charity.

    I decided to submit a review although I don't usually do that sort of thing, because I saw that there was lots of negative reviews on this Zulily, and I felt the need to defend them. I'm a true bargain hunter, and I shop extensively online. Mostly Amazon and some of my favorite stores. I hesitated shopping from Zulily for a long time because of negative reviews I came across. Of course I realize that the majority of people who post reviews online are the ones that want to complain. Well I'm not here to complain, I'm here to say that my experience of Zulily has been great. I order from there frequently, probably at least once every few weeks. The prices are fantastic, the shipping is minimal, and such a wide variety of things to choose from.

    I'm a plus-sized gal, and I can find all kinds of trendy awesome clothes on there for fantastic prices. Yes you have to wait for your order sometimes, but that is something I can live with. If you research Zulily on Wikipedia you will learn that some of the items they keep it in their inventory and others they don't. If you're willing to wait a while for your item then it is well worth it. I have found when I have had a problem with an item, they have always been quick to resolve the issue. In many cases they have just refunded my money and allowed me to keep the item. So no complaints here! I think if you are willing to wait a little longer than some online stores for your items for the benefit of saving money, then you will not be disappointed.

And whenever I get polite & courteous service, I always ask to speak to their supervisor to tell them how awesome my experience was handled.

    I've worked in the service industry & most times a superior is asked for it's to complain. So I have made it a habit of always speaking to a supervisor wherever & whenever I get great service. I think that goes a long way. And I inquire if the compliment will be recorded in the employee's file/work record.

    I ordered a pair of sandals off of Zulily that took weeks and weeks to arrive. When they finally did arrive, they arrived in a mostly destroyed box, and contained not a PAIR of sandals, but two sandals of completely different sizes! They have now accepted my return for store credit, but I do not feel like a return for such an egregious lapse in quality control should result in store credit. I do not want to buy anything else from Zulily, but now have $39.99 in store credit. I believe that if a return is because of an error on the company's fault, customer should be fully refunded their money, not given store credit. At the end of the day, Zulily still gets my money even though they sent me TWO SHOES OF DIFFERENT SIZES in a ripped up box. What kind of customer service is this?

I have never been charged to return items that were of poor quality or that didn't fit as the size chart indicated.

    Their customer service is terrible. They will do nothing to help you. I ordered several things and it took forever to get them, only to find out they were the wrong sizes and the quality... my Goodness! Also, the savings are not really there. The shipping cost, plus all the time it takes to get your order, the disappointment when you see the poor quality, not to talk about the fact that you have to pay the cost of returning the items. No thanks! I only shop from online stores that have an actual store where I live and that allow me to return them to the store. Buyer beware!!!

    I have never ordered from zulily before, but figured why not try. Unfortunately, it will be my last time. The wait time to receive my order was so very long, although I understand how their policy works with vendors, I was understanding. Sadly, the three clothing items that I did finally receive were way below my expectations. Buying things unseen can be difficult, but the quality was beyond disappointing. See-through sheer, poorly made is the only way I can describe it. I cannot even imagine how any of the items would hold up after a washing. Live and learn, but I won't be back anytime soon.

    On 3.22.2018, I purchased a pair of children's dress sandals from Zulily. I even downloaded the app. By the next morning I tracked my order on the app. It had 4 steps plus a house symbol. I thought I was going to get my shoes. They were fast. To my surprise they were in Lockbourne, Ohio. I waited 3 more days and then called customer service. They assured me my shoes shipped and were on the way. I waited 2 more days and contacted them again. At this point they were sure my shoes shipped but Zulily said they would return my money and if I got them to just keep them.

    2 weeks later now and I have not received them. I contacted UPS and they could not track them but said a shipping label was made but could not track the package. This tells me they were never shipped. This is the worst company ever and I will never order from them again. Poor service. I feel like they took my money. I really wanted the dress sandals.

    After being a customer for many years, today the final nail was put in their coffin. I have had some scattered issues in the past, but usually they resolved them even if it took a while. Over the last two months, my experiences with them have been horrid. In seven orders, I’ve had the following experiences: 1.) What I received was not what I ordered (4) times on different orders. 2.) Items received did not match the picture (4) times on (3) orders. 3.) Item arrived but in a different color than ordered (2) times in (2) orders. 4.) Order cancelled because of improper order/inventory management (2) times in (2) orders. 5.) Items of poor quality/broken/damaged which was clearly done prior to shipment and was not caught in quality control (2) times on (2) orders.

    I have been very patient with them regarding this flurry of mistakes only to receive horrendous and flippant customer service. Today, when I emailed them about the ongoing issues after cancelling an order, I was told thanks for the feedback but there was nothing they could or would do to fix any of these issues. I researched their company and their suppliers and they have expanded their suppliers to include a vast array of subcontractors which also produce cheap quality products for other suppliers (like Wish) but brand them as coming directly from the listed supplier and charging more.

    This may be a downstream supply management issue and not a Zulily specific issue but the point is you can get the same cheaply made crap other places for a lot less. Secondly, I discovered that their prices are not any lower in many instances than buying the same item on sale direct from the supplier often with free shipping and that ships within a few days as opposed to their 3-4 week lead time. These suppliers also offer coupons and other discounts which made the items I purchased more than 30% cheaper. Additionally, all of these suppliers accept returns which often they do not even when it’s their mistake. Lastly, I discovered that reviews of them as an employer which were less than favorable noting poor working conditions and low wages.

    I would just do your own research before buying from them and shop around on pricing and shipping as you may not be getting the deal you think you are getting. Additionally, if you do order from them, don’t expect to get what you order so you may want to weigh your risks especially if it’s for a gift or other specified purpose. Lastly, remember all the risk is on you when you order as they don’t maintain inventory and if it comes in wrong due to their mistake, you are the one who will have to do all the legwork to fix it. I assure you customer service won’t care other than refunding your money - if you package it, ship it back to them, wait for their inspection and maybe 4-5 weeks later you receive a credit. Good luck!

    I've been shopping with Zulily for a few years. The clothes I buy usually pill after two washings. You have to approach their stuff as disposable clothing. I also have bought some housewares from them. Unfortunately, the order I placed at the end of November included two items that should have lasted at least a year or more. Three of the items, in particular a salad spinner, became unusable after less than four months. I asked for a refund. I would have taken a store credit, but rather than offer that, they told me that I needed to let them know within 30 days that the items were defective. How could I do that if the items only became defective after more than 30 days had elapsed? I will go to other stores in the future in order to be able to return defective items for a refund or store credit.

Of the 3 pairs of pants that I ordered only one actually fit. The other 2 were too small. One because the size was off from what they should have been and the other was not the size I ordered. The tag inside showing the size was literally cut off so you couldnt see what the size was, They had to have been 2 sizes smaller than I actually wear. The 2 tops I ordered were so cheap, that you have to wear a tank underneath or you would see your skin and bra underneath.

I have order women's tops and two of them were not closely small but unreasonably small as for a child and they weren't returnable. The return costs would have been more than the items anyway. It's just simply a hit-or-miss site and for the most part too risky to keep buying from them.

    If you find items on Zulily that you like, research them thoroughly on Amazon and eBay and anywhere else you may find them. Read all the Amazon reviews you can tolerate, and on Amazon ask questions of the previous purchasers, I have found this to be a most helpful feature. Check the prices carefully also. Something that seems like a good price on zulily may not really be such once you figure in the shipping costs, the long delays (and possible cancellation), and the impossibility of returning.

    I have received some very good and some very bad items from zulily. Shipping for the most part takes a long time, even if it is advertised that something can ship out the very next morning or is guaranteed to arrive by Christmas, it just doesn’t happen. I understand that items are often shipped directly from China but for a pair of leggings to take two months to arrive is ridiculous. Amazon sells items that are shipped from China that take a month to arrive - and most of those can be returned if necessary.

    Zulily has no return policy. If something doesn’t fit due to no fault of your own, is junk, you don’t like it, or for any reason, you’re stuck with it. Received a so-called 6-piece decorative pillows/comforter set that was so pathetic I wouldn’t have given it to the dogs, there was virtually no padding in the decorative pillows or comforter, and the bed skirt was missing. Raised a stink and was able to return it but had to pay shipping and restocking. Have never received a complete set of anything - not dish towels, granola, plant seeds... packing list always says “set of” but I have never received a full set of anything. In some cases they have re-sent me the “set” but again I received exactly quantity 1 of product and by no means a set of anything.

    Every refund you get is a store refund. So you get stuck purchasing more items from a store you may have lost faith in. Known name brand items can be completely satisfactory. I have purchased furniture and refurbished tech products and they have been of good quality and perfectly usable and completely satisfactory.

    Zulily has very talented photographers. I have received items that actually look like the photographs, but the quality of the actual items was just sorely lacking. Clothing is often the worst culprit. Adding my voice to the complaints about clothing sizing - there is no rhyme, reason, or consistency to sizing. Same brand, same style, one item may fit and the others be way off.

    Material is all too often quite unpleasant, completely synthetic and cut so it stretches uncomfortably. Sometimes the colors are so off one wonders what, if anything, the advertisement writer was thinking. Every pair of shoes I have purchased has been hard uncomfortable plastic, even those described and advertised as leather, and sizing has been quite off here also. Every pair of shoes purchased from zulily has gone to charity unworn in the boxes they came in. And frankly, poor quality shoes - or clothes - do not really help charity or folks who need charity either, just give some real money.

    Jewelry items just look and feel junky. A bracelet with a tag on it stating “genuine leather” smelled like rubber cement and nothing at all like leather, and certainly did not look like leather. I was too embarrassed to gift any of the jewelry items I had purchased as gifts. I would leave four stars for this company due to the good products I have received from them, and zero stars for the poor quality items, poor service, and just subpar everything else about them. So I guess that boils down to two stars. In all honesty I would suggest you find the stuff you may like elsewhere. I have long since removed my CC information, deleted the app, and closed my account. Often zulily gives you very cool ideas, but really, you can find the stuff elsewhere.

    Zulily is a site that cheats customers. Always look for the item you like on Zulily at Amazon, eBay, or another site you know has decent prices. Zulily marks up the costs four to five times as much as eBay. Saw a purse charm I loved one day. Six bucks on Zulily and $1.74 on eBay. The exact same item. Remember, Zulily tacks on $5.99 for shipping as well. Turns your already inflated item to twice the price. In my cart, the total cost was nearly $13 after tax. It does not cost $5.99 to ship an item weighing less than an ounce. I bought the charm for $1.74, no tax and free shipping.

    Many times designer cosmetics and perfumes on Zulily show an inflated retail price crossed out, then a "sale" price above that. Go to the actual designer's website. Many times, the designer doesn't even charge what Zulily claimed the retail cost was. It was inflated to make you think it was more expensive than it really is. Marshalls/TJ Maxx just got nailed in a class action lawsuit for the same deceitful practices.

    Remember that "free shipping till midnight" sign you get after making a purchase? Not really. If you end up buying three more items, thinking you're getting free shipping, think again. Warehouses from all over ship to a Zulily building, where ALL of your items are shipped together anyways. Plus with inflated prices, you've paid top cost for everything. Nothing is ever free and that sign gets you to just spend more. Over the years, Zulily has had so many complaints from countless unhappy customers and the reviews or smarmy practices, never get any better.

To my surprise, they not only refunded my item with my choice of store credit or how I originally paid, but they also gave me $10 in store credit on top of that. No returning hassle needed.

    My issue was solved in less than 5 minutes and I couldn't be happier. People complaining about shipping times must not be reading their policy. They have to wait to the item to first ship to them and then they ship it to you. So, it is understandable that shipping times are a bit longer than other places however this is not hidden from the customer and I knew before I had ordered. Besides the Rip in the skirt my items where exactly as I expected them to be and of great quality. I will definitely continue to shop with Zulily!

I originally bought two tops in a size larger than usual and neither one fit across the chest. Also, one was very low quality. I wanted to return the items, but learned that I could not. I contacted the company and they offered me a store credit. The problem with the credit was that I wouldn't use it to buy clothes because you can't trust the sizing or quality. I finally bought a bookshelf and a small table with drawers. It has been so long, I almost forgot I even placed the order. I was notified that one of the items was just recently shipped and that the other has been delayed and may be canceled within a week. I only placed this second order to use my credit. Once I have spent all of my credit, I will absolutely never shop here again.

    Thanks for your vote!
