Do not purchase anything from J.C.Penneys.com

I purchased a shirt for my husband on line (husband told me wrong size to purchase). I reordered the correct size the next day.

 

The wrong size shirt arrived today. I called Penneys several times today on how to send the wrong size shirt back to the fulfillment center.

When I ordered the correct size shirt I asked if the return shirt would cost me money to send back. I was advised NO it would not cost me anything.

 

 I was advised tonight from J.C. Penney’s fulfillment center I would have to purchase a shirt box from USPS or UPS plus the cost of shipment. 

 

The cost of the shirt box, plus insurance, plus cost of mailing would equal to what I paid for the shirt (which was on sale).

 

What an expensive lesson to learn. Never again will I purchase from J.C. Penney’s on line

 Can’t you return it to a J.C Penney store near you to save the return costs?

Good grief, what a hassle.    

You can't return to an actual Penney's store?

That's what I do. Have never had a problem.

I read they are on hard times - always bought drapes, towels over the years.  I went to their website to 'look' at pillowcases, didn't put one thing in my cart.  Immediately I started getting emails up to 3 a days telling me this or that was on sale.  Couldn't touch my email but what jcpenny was there.  I finally sent them to the trash file.  Never happened before - they must be on the ropes.

I buy certain things from JCP in store and not on line since the store is 4 miles from me.

Most of us no longer live near to an actual store.  The two nearest to me, closed many years ago.  

 

I still occasionally order their towels, online. Can't go wrong with those.

What I do is order online but go to a store for exchanges.

I returned a few things back to Pennys through USPS after Christmas..used the original box and return label provided. I had no problem. They credited me quickly. Sorry you had a bad experience.
