Has anybody ever purchased clothing from Amazon?

sueeich — Wed, 06 Jul 2016 23:06:18 GMT

I am in need of some new casual t-shirts. I have a hard time finding ones that i like because I'm tall and I find most tees to be too short for me. I found hundreds of tees on Amazon that look pretty cute and are the rayon/spandex blend that is so popular right now. The prices are also extremely reasonable. I have been a Prime member for years and order stuff all the time, but I've never ordered clothing. Any opinions?

I've bought plenty from Amazon but only a few pieces of clothing - i.e., a well named wool coat - a few denim casual shirts and slippers and/or flat shoes. No problem - very satisfied. You're actually reaching more vendors/suppliers who list their product on "A" instead of having their own website. Like any where: QVC included, you just have to analyze the product and especially read the reviews. The reviews are why I really trust "A" more than some sites who have none. No reviews - I don't buy! Go for it and it's easy to return product should you not be happy.

I've ordered lots of clothes and shoes from Amazon. Most of their apparel is free shipping and free returns with your prime membership. Each item states whether it's free returns.

I purchased one top that I liked. I find the sizing chart to be very different. They sell items from name brands. I've bought a couple of pairs of Clarks.

No clothing but lots of brand-name shoes at VERY reasonable prices! For example, I bought one pair of Clarks ankle boots at a quarter of the price that the Q sold the same model for! And they arrived well-packaged and in pristine condition!

Well, I decided to go for it. I found this really cute top on Amazon. Rayon/spandex blend, made in USA, and only $20. Free shipping and free return shipping. I think it's really cute. If I like it, there are many other color combinations available. The same shirt is also offered in a 3/4 length sleeve.

I hope it fits and you're happy with it. I like the length. I'm always looking for longer tops, too

The only clothing I have purchased from Amazon is Calvin Klein pants called Madison's. I knew exactly my size and they were slightly cheaper than at Bloomingdale's and Macy's. They were a slim leg, front zipper with belt loops classic. I was happy with my purchase.

I buy my bras from Amazon now. When the store wanted $40 and Amazon had it for $24 with free shipping, I was sold.

I got a Miricle Suit swim suit bottom and two tops this year, shoes in the past years.

You can't remove tags or "use and return" but it IS easy to return.

All three items were perfect this year and the shoes I ordered last year were fine too.

I have purchased several maxis, shirts for DH, misc lots of things. My advice, read sizing chart in each item. Reviews always seem to be plentiful good and bad on each and that is a good thing. Shipping always seems FASTer than even what may be posted. I only had to retun 1 pair of shoes, they sent a return label and I dropped them off at UPS when I went to mall. AMAZON is amazing so far. Enjoy your new purchase(S)

I have not purchased clothing. I have purchased a Sam Edelman coat, but it was one I had tried on at Nordstrom. I paid quite a bit less purchasing the coat from Amazon. I have also bought shoes from brands I have experience with, and I won't buy swimwear before checking Amazon to compare prices.

Overall I have been satisfied with my purchases. I've not had to return anything, but if the clothing return is as easy as returning other things I would not be concerned about that.

Massive numbers of people sell items through Amazon. It's similar to ebay in that respect.

That being said, I've bought all sorts of things from Amazon sellers, including clothing. Tremendously successful transactions!

I would buy one or two and see if you like them. If you are unhappy send them back.

Someone I know bought her mother of the groom gown from them. It was gorgeous.

Yes, purchased a dress, I'm happy with it. Read the description very carefully, look at a few reviews for any pattern of faults. And check for refund policy.

Smoky,

It's a brand called SHOPGLAMLA. There are dozens of color combinations so I'm hoping I really like this top. I am known for buying multiples of items if I really like it. The same shirt comes in a 3/4 length sleeve as well. The items are made in the USA which is a definite plus as far as I'm concerned. Keeping my fingers crossed that I like this blouse. Can't beat the price!

I've bought quite a few clothing items from Amazon. Most of the tops I've been happy with. Someone on the forum her suggested their DJT line, so I tried it and I like it. The only unpleasant experience was buying something from a seller in China and the top did not fit right. I would say Amazon is by far one of the most successful vendors of consumer items(books, electronics, toys, etc.) -they carry a wide variety of merchandise, most of it top quality. So, I would say go for it!
