  I purchased a dress from Garmentory, listed by **** boutique in **************, *******. It arrived wrinkled, poorly packaged, and looked like it had been previously washed. I tried it on once and sent it back unworn, with tags, in original packaging, on the same day as delivery. My return was rejected allegedly because they claimed the garment contained pet hairs. When they sent it back to me, I found only one hair, mine, near the neckline. I believe their claim is fraudulent and predatory. I shop often online and never had a problem with a return.

  Attached are photos of the condition of the item when we received this back. As you can see, this is covered in pet hairs and unfortunately, this return is not acceptable as our policy does not allow the return of items not in original condition. As a result, we have rejected the return and sent this item back to the user with tracking number ********************** via ***** We apologize again for the inconvenience.

  I am rejecting this response because: That is a lie. There was no evidence of pet hair when the item was returned to me. I have returned the item to the seller and will continue to dispute the charge with bank. Avoid the Garmentory platform at all costs. The owner has been the subject of several lawsuits and is likely going out of business soon.

  Im having a difficult experience with an overseas order I made with an obvious item value error and do not feel like Im getting much help. It appears the shipper over valued the item on the import duty document by *******, and so the import duty is larger than the value of the clothing. Its been held up at *** for two weeks and all I keep getting are emails from Garmentory that they are working with the merchant. Ive contacted *** myself and they said its a simple enough solve if the merchant reaches out to them. Garmentory at one point had the audacity to say I just pay the incorrect import duty. I dont feel like Im getting much support from them.

  I recently purchased a final sale item on this business site. I was under the impression that the purse was made and designed in *****. When I received the purse I was taken aback when I looked inside and the label said, Design Paris (yes, poor grammar). Made in ******* on a label that looked like it came from an H&M sweatshop. The inside was slapped together with glue and I was just shocked that I had been duped into making this purchase under false information. I spoke with a lawyer and have been told this is completely illegal. When I reached out to Garmentory they took ZERO accountability, refused a refund and brought up how they could do absolutely nothing because of the final sale policy. But how is that policy even in effect if I was lied to!?! This company is allowing fraud and I will not stand for it! BOYCOTT this business and never give them your hard earned dollars!

  I ordered four items from Garmentory. They sent the items via **** *** provided delivery schedule windows but did not deliver within them. They then refused to make another delivery attempt unless I paid delivery fees online. Paying online requires creating an account, which I reluctantly created, then it requested an account code, which I don't have. It has been an incredible hassle. I've contacted Garmentory many times and they just keep telling me *** needs fees paid. But *** never made the original delivery attempts. I would like my orders refunded. I never want to use Garmentory or *** again. I'd also like to warn others about the horrible practices of these ************ it stands, my order is in a warehouse, I don't know where, and can't even pay for its release.

  Upon placing your order, we require customers to check off a box accepting and acknowledging responsibility for all additional customs and import duties on international orders. Unfortunately, if the charges are not paid, the package will become abandoned by the carrier and we will be unable to assist in any way to retrieve the package or process the refund. The user will have to contact *** over the phone to clear the package

  Better Business Bureau:
  
  I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ********, and find that this resolution is satisfactory to me.

  That said, I find the operations unsatisfactory. That in having a customer click 'accept', they are accepting exorbitant fees, unreliable service by *** and there is still one item I've not even received notice of (but Garmentory happily took my money). My hope is that if enough people complain, they may change their practice.

  Date of Transaction: 07/14/24 Amount Paid: $314.52 Ordered a NEW Dress for a wedding, the item received was damaged and was unable to use the item for the wedding. Immediately notified the merchant of the issue and did not receive a response for 2 days. I was out of town for the wedding when the merchant asked for additional photos of the issue. I provided photos upon my return and was then informed that the business would not provide a refund due to missing their period to notify of the damaged item. The vendor would not honor a refund due to the damage and has only offered an exchange. As a consumer I should have the right to a full refund if the item I purchased is damaged. The only resolution the vendor has provided is an exchange of the item which is no longer needed as the wedding event has passed. At the time of filing this complaint the vendor has still not shipped my replacement, and only provided a tracking label.I have opened a dispute with the company affirm which I used to purchase the item. The vendor has since insisted they will contact affirm on my behalf to notify them I wish to close the dispute. (I have at no point in time expressed that I will close the dispute until I either receive the item or a refund)

  This customer did not provide us with any photos of the issue they reported as we have a 7 day reporting window to receive photos in cases of damages. Additionally, our support team followed up with the customer immediately when our office hours were open and they did not provide us with a response with the requested material to review their issue and the svidence attached. However, from our quality control check, this item was brand new and the damage was not present at the time the order was processed. We did make an exception for a replacement, despite the item not being damaged from our end and the replacement was shipped with 1ZY82A849195281098 via **** Please note on our policy page, "If youve received a damaged item, please contact us using our support form as soon as possible, within 7 days of receiving the package. Please be ready to forward along images of the item, invoice, packaging, and details on the condition of the piece to our support team. Images must be provided within 7 days of receiving the package."

  I am rejecting this response because:

  Per the vendors return policy I did provide photos within 7 calendar days of delivery. Therefore for the vendor to claim they did not receive the photos within 7 Calendar days was simply untrue.

  Item was delivered 7/19 and photos were emailed the day I returned, 7/25. I have attached screenshots of both the delivery confirmation and my email in which I provided the photos. I received the item the 19th, the 25th was within 7 calendar days.
  

  Furthermore for the vendor to insist that I did damage to the item is an insult, I needed this item for an Event and was unable to use this item since it arrived damaged, resulting in me purchasing something else from a local business instead.

  Beware of this company and shop elsewhere.

  Garmentory sent me white pants that had red small splatter stains on the internal waistband. When I contacted them, rather than express contrition they acted like I was a scammer and that these stains were not possible. I sent pics and they said my pics were unclear. I then asked to speak with a manager they declined. They then repeatedly lied about their policies and the refunds process and finally they connected me to someone named R-- who said he would make it right if I just sent back the pants. I had read enough reviews to know that I should loop in PayPal as well because Garmentory seems to have a long history of not refunding people. Also I saw online people saying Garmentory routinely send out used things and claims nothing is wrong with those items or they send out used things and decline to refund the buyer and say it is the buyers fault. I decided to send everything back untouched in a large shipping bag to avoid this. So I sent it to them, but to protect myself I also filed a PayPal claim. Garmentory did not contacted me for a week. I contacted finally them and at that point, because I had no faith in Garmentory to refund me, I escalated my PayPal claim. And I won. Long story short, PayPal forced Garmentory to refund me. And meanwhile, Garmentory who promised to make it right and refund the shipping costs has declined to do so. They are so shady and underhanded it is truly remarkable. Never ever buy from them.

  I am rejecting this response because:
  I had to pay to ship these pants back and dealing with their unprofessional customer service was an enormous hassle. They repeatedly said they would refund me the shipping and would make this right. This was all dishonesty. They then lied and said I sent the pants back late so I was lucky to be refunded. That was a lie. They then proceeded to say that the pants were not stained but I have pictures that show otherwise. A business should not be able to behave in this underhanded way.

  We placed an order from Garmentory on 5/29/2024 expecting the shoes to be delivered by our vacation on 6/14/2024. The package did not ship until 6/6/2024 and did not arrive until 6/14/2024 after we had left. We returned on the night of 6/21/2024 to find the package and contacted them in the morning of 6/22/2024. They have refused to refund the unopened/unused shoes because they say it is outside of their 7 day return window, even though the package was late and we are basically less than 8 hours after what they considered the return window. I have contacted them numerous times and to no avail as they say we missed the deadline. I contend the deadline was missed because the shipping was so late and they have been very uncooperative with this. I do understand deadlines and return policies but if you are going to have such a strict timeframe maybe the shipping deadline should be held with the same guidelines. I am only asking for a refund of an unused/unopened product.

  Since the return is past our 7-day window, it is considered Final Sale. We strive to create a thriving and supportive environment for our small boutiques and independent designers, so we need to respect the agreed upon policies.

  
  Thank you so much for your understanding.

  I am rejecting this response because:  Shipping was over 1 week late than the promised time which did not give us enough time to meet the 7 day return window.  The window landed on a Sunday and we called Monday morning.  Terrible communication on shipping.  If it would have been delivered on time we could of easily met your very strict 7 day window.

  I ordered a short sleeve jacket around 5/20/24. I was out of the country when my order arrived. By the time I returned and was able to try the jacket on, I discovered it didn't fit. I was just outside the return window and tried to contact Garmentory several times over the span of 3 days, asking for an extension for the return considering my circumstance. I left messages in chat as instructed but, never got a response or a return call, despite repeated attempts. Not only is their return/exchange policy super rigid and not customer-friendly, but their lack of response from customer service is truly inexcusable. I'd like to receive a return label and return the jacket for a full refund.

  The customer's had reached out on June 4th asking to return their order. Their order was marked delivered back on May 24th with tracking number 1ZY82A840394597138 via **** We have a strict 7-day return window to accept returns. As the customer had reached out past their return window, they are no longer eligible for a return.

  First order placed on the merchant website on the 9th of april and never received. ****** refused to give me a refund and gave me a store credit instead. Placed a new order on the 16th of may, and had to refuse package as import duties were too expensive. Now seller doesnt want to give a refund again because if the charges are not paid, the package will become abandoned by the carrier and we will be unable to assist in any way to retrieve the package or process the refund which is absolutely not true.

  I purchased a dress and did not like it so returned it. Today I received an e mail that they were returning the dress to me and would not give me a refund because it was damaged. Since I did not damage it, that means they sent me a damaged article and charged me full price in the first place

  Business Response

  Date: 05/16/2024

  Hi there, this return item arrived back to us in an unacceptable condition as our policy requires all returns to arrive back in original condition and does not allow the return of damaged items. The item arrived back to us with stitching on it in white that was not present with the dress when we had processed, inspected, and shipped it out. Please see the attached pictures.
  
  As a result, we cannot accept this item back and cannot offer any refunds. This item has been sent back to the user and the tracking number for this return is ********************** through ***** We apologize again for the inconvenience.

  Complaint: 21707222
  
  I am rejecting this response because: the garment was either sent out to me with that damage and charged at full price, or was switched with the one I returned so that the cost could be shifted to me. I did not even wear it other than to try it on briefly, did not see the stitches the shop staff claim are there, and had no reason to stitch the garment. If they did not knowingly send me a damaged garment, then they must look at whoever else may have handled it, as it had nothing to do with me. I have signed an affidavit with my bank, who will be pursuing the refund and I await an apology from the retailer. 

  Sincerely,
