Anyone ordered from here before?

No

I've never ordered but looking at it it kind of looks like Primark but online. Dunno, the quality is bound to be variable but it's very cheap so almost throwaway maybe?

Hate it.
I can't find a registered business address and there are some paragraphs in the terms and conditions that ring alarm bells, for example:

Delivery to carrier shall constitute delivery to Buyer, and thereafter risk of loss or damage shall pass to Buyer.

I've read that you really need to focus on the sizes as they differ from garment to garment. One garment you may be an XS and another garment you may be an XL.

Apart from that it seems very cheap with some unique styles

Is it legal to try to pass responsibility for one's chosen courier onto the customer ?
Would've hoped some consumer association or government authority would come down on that like a ton of bricks.

[Zacs-Master]

Under which country's laws, OG?

[Calicogirl]

If it's Chinese all the sizes will come up as minute, i'm something like a XXXL lol and I'm a 12 :)

I don't think shein is UK i think it's some china company

Calico I've ordered once before but no one noone else who has. I ordered a hoodie and i had to ordered a size XS, so me being me, got a size M because i know how it be.. It was MASSIVE and i didn't bother returning it because it was £7

According to Companies House the company was dissolved last June

[spathiphyllum]

did they just dissolve in the UK though?

[hc4361]

Under their T&Cs they say they conform to UK laws but they clearly don't - liability for delivery cannot be passed to the customer.

...all those lovely 1-star reviews on Trustpilot.....go on, give it a go and report back.....

[hc4361]

I think the Trust Pilot reviews says it all, but really what do people expect at those prices?

[Zacs-Master]

Indeed. Caveat Emptor

[gingejbee]

...as hc has said....any company that passes responsibility for delivery onto the customer, is to be avoided at all costs.

[spathiphyllum]

Reading trustpiolet seems most issue with people is they didn't fully read what they were ordering from size to material. Shein lays this all out with detail so IMO that's the buyers fault.

Quality seems hit or miss though

[Calicogirl]

Yeah but aside from that do you really want to fund a Chinese sweat shop Spath?

[spathiphyllum]

I've no idea if they are from a sweatshop or not, but primark is for sure , better to pay china direct than primark to have to source from china surely?
