I ordered a top on June 7, and it just shipped today . Is that usual for Zulily ?  I'm not in a hurry for my order , but I would like to know for future reference TIA.

It took a while for me to receive my packages.  My orders were sent by the vendor not QVC so maybe that is why.

Sometimes it takes 3 weeks.  Yet, I ordered on Friday and it's being delivered today. You just never know.

On Zulily every item is different because they come from the various manufacturers, not a Zulily warehouse (that's why the prices are so low).  I look at the delivery times for each individual item even before I consider the price.  Some things can be delivered in 3 to 5 days, others take over a month, and everywhere in between.  Must be very diligent in checking the delivery time before you finalize that purchase!

Having said that, I have been very happy with Zulily because I always manage my expectations of delivery (and usually only buy brands I already know).

Yes, very typical for Zulily.

@QVCkitty1  My experience has been that each item shows an expected ship date.  Usually 2-3 weeks but I take that into consideration when ordering.

@grandma2pkmh, thanks, I didn't notice that when I ordered, I will pay better attention if I order again.

@QVCkitty1  Yes, it usually takes three-four weeks for arrival of an intem, which doesn't bother me for such great deals.

@lulu1  I think this happenes when an item is returned, or cancelled while it is en route to zulily.  I ordered something about four weeks ago, and received an email at one point saying it was delayed, then it was cancelled.  A week later, the item showed up, only one,. so I know that was my item which arrived after zulily cancelled it, so I received it the next day.

It can be typical for zulilly.  Sometimes they have to wait until the event ends.  Then it ships from the vendor to zulilly.  Then it ships to you.  So it can take awhile.  But they say you end up with lower prices.  So if you don't mind the lower prices, you win.  However in some cases you do receive some items  faster.  Just depends.  Same with Hautelook with Nordstrom.
