Re: Have you had luck with ”as is “ ?

I haven't purchased many, but the ones I have purchased were fine.  Great quality, no issues and it allowed me to get an item that was otherwise out of stock.  I purchased a suit jacket that I liked and wanted to puchase in another color for work.  They were out of stock, but I found a gray one "as is" and it was perfect.

Re: Have you had luck with ”as is “ ?

I feel very good about my purchase now of As Is .  It is a crcorbitem that sold out and I really wanted it so when I saw on "as is " I was very tempted but wondered if I should take the chance .  Worst senerio I have to send back. 

thanks for your replies 😸

Re: Have you had luck with ”as is “ ?

I have never had a problem with "as is" items I have received, and I have purchased many.

 

So far, I think what I received as "as is" were either what the model wore, or maybe what was hung on the rack when the host goes thru to give the colors, or in the case of non-clothes, they were part of the display.

 

Just think about when there is a Dooney and Bourke show many years ago when they had around 30-40 colors displayed of one of their purses (I don't see so many colors displayed now), and ALL of those are considered "as is" because they were handled in one way or another. They still came in their own box, in their own duster/cover, and I've never had one of those purses have nicks or tears. And yet I paid around half price for them.

 

And if you do get one that you don't want because of one reason or another, you still get the standard 30-day return policy. Win-Win!

Yes, I have purchased a couple of them. I returned 1 didn't fit right and I believe it said no return. Not a problem. I believe that they do take care of the customer.

Have purchased numerous "as is" items from clothing to VPH pieces.  All have been top condition!  Although, did receive an "as is" Luminara set of candles that were defective, returned for refund.

I've had great luck with 'as-is'. I don't usually buy clothing items, but bags, shoes etc..

Re: Have you had luck with ”as is “ ?

Yes, I've bought as is jewelry. 
 
I always give a really thorough soaping! 
 
At least you know it's as is before you order.
It's so frustrating paying full price for a piece and then when it comes, you open it to see that bag with the big label.
Great. I really wanted to pay full price for something that could have just spent 3 weeks on a grotty bedroom carpet before you reposted it out to me. 
 
I cannot fathom why some items are designated as is and some are sent out as new but are are obviously returns.

Re: Have you had luck with ”as is “ ?

Many times all new in perfect condition. You can return the item for any reason just like any other purchase. There is never an instance where you cannot return the item and it never states not returnable. I have purchased so many never had a problem.
Don’t hesitate they have some good deals.
