"Horrible experience with shoes.com. They do not accept returns despite their declarations on line.
They will look for microscopic scratches and decline your return. Never purchase anything from
shoes.com"

"I lost track of my order, missed the 60-day return mark - NO way to return or exchange 3 pairs of shoes that are too small and very expensive. My bad for not getting on this sooner, but SO MANY OTHER ONLINE SHOE STORES help out no matter how long. I will never shop at shoes.com again."

"I called within 15 minutes of placing and order and they tell me it s not possible for them to cancel my order. Yet it takes them 3-55 days to process and ship and order? The rude customer rep was just the icing on the cake. "

"Hi, I order one pair of shoes - they ran my visa 3 times for the one order - I called customer service - no one spoke English, loud laughing in the background - asked to speak to a supervisor 3 times - still not resolved after 5 phone calls and numerous emails."

"My mom accidentally ordered a UK size 7 (which is a US 9) pair of Dr. Marten boots. Upon receiving the shoes, we took one look at them and realized they were too big. I put a small amount of tape on the box to ensure it would stay sealed when I shipped them back, and also wrapped the box in brown shipping paper. A few days later I got an email saying they could not take the shoes back because of the small amount of tape on the outside of the shoebox. The shoes themselves were completely untouched, with cardboard still in the shoes and everything! I immediately called shoes.com customer service and they were firm in standing by this ridiculous policy. I am now left with a pair of shoes in mint condition that I spent $150 on and cannot wear. I will NEVER be ordering from shoes.com again! They are charging me $150 for a shoebox, very shady company."

"This is my first buy from shoes.com and it will be my last. I have run into two issues. First, I ordered my shoes on 10/19/17, I paid extra for 2 day shipping as i needed them for a friday run. I ordered them late, so I gave a three day window. After seeing the shipping information late Wednesday, I emailed support. They said that the 2day shipping was for UPS, however, the factory is giving you 1-5 business days to package your order, then it goes through UPS. So, essentially your getting between 3-5 business day if you pay for 2 day shipping. COME ON! Second issue, I was checking my bank account as I usually do from time to time make sure my bills are being process correctly. I noticed a charge for my shoes at SHOES.COM for $96 and change, then I notice my pending transactions, there are TWO more charges of $96 from SHOES.COM. Hold up, I only bought ONE pair of shoes! So, I email Support, again. Here is there reply:

"Thank you for contacting shoes.com regarding your order number: XXXXXXXX.

I would be more than happy to assist you.

According to the records, three attempts were made to place the order of which two were unsuccessful and one was successful. When an order is unsuccessful it leaves a pre authorization on the credit card. A pre authorization is a pending charge that falls off automatically within 3-5 business days.

Apologies for any inconvenience caused.

For any further assistance feel free to contact the toll free number below.

Thank you for choosing shoes.com. We look forward to working with you in the near future."

NOW! Did I make attempts to order and it failed? Yes, yes I did. Is this my fault? NO, no it is not, apparantly my information was correct, hence why it's pending in my account. Usually when a payment attempt says "did not go through" it's the users error, maybe an incorrect CC number was put in, or the address, name, date is incorrect. So, you input again until the lines match up and the process of payment is made.

This to me is completely asinine; To charge customers for their failed attempts at making a purchase, only to charge them a "pre-authorization" something or another, and not even tell them about it. Some people cannot afford to have extra unforeseen charges, this has to be illegal.

By the way, my shoes should be in today 11/06/17. Let's hope I don't have to deal with sending them back

"On 10/17/2017, I placed an order on their website totaling $215.21. At that time, this same amount was debited against my account. On 10/19/2017, there was another debit made against my account in the amount of $136.55.
On 10/20/2017, I received an alert from my bank indicating that my balance had dropped below a specified amount. This caused me concern since there were plenty of funds in the account to cover all payments that had been made. When I checked, both of the above debits had been placed by this company, without reversal of either one of them. I immediately made a call to Shoes.com to the customer service # listed on their website. I was told by the representative, as well as the supervisor I spoke with, that there actually should have been a total of 5 holds placed on the account for taxes, product, and shipping charges. When I told him that these were the only 2 that appeared, that's when the representative switched me over to a supervisor.
In speaking with the supervisor, he also indicated that it would take several days for the $215.21 to reverse off of the account and that both products had already shipped. So, in essence, over the next several days, my account will be charged over $400 for the same order. The supervisor explained that the $215.21 was a hold. I asked him where this was disclosed on the website at the time the order is placed so that the customer is aware that this happens. He was not able to provide an answer. However, the website indicates that my account would only be charged when products have shipped, which really is not a true statement.
In reading the Terms of Service, Payment Options information, etc on the website, there is nowhere that indicates there will be a hold, then actual charges, and have it take several days to reverse off the apparent original hold. Meanwhile, I have payments posting to my account that I am now incurring bank fees for because there are not enough funds to cover the legitimate transactions. The supervisor made the statement to me, "There's no way we will be paying the bank fees." "

"I ordered 19 ANUSCHKA & Anna By Anuschka handbags from shoes.com 4 days ago, today I was notified by email that my entire order was cancelled. I spoke with a customer representative that was a bit clueless so I asked to be transferred to his supervisor. I spoke with his supervisor, Keisha, who initially informed me that the price of the handbags were listed incorrectly by the vendor (ANUSCHKA) and even though orders were taken, they could not process these orders. When I pressed her about who was at fault about the incorrect pricing, she informed me she never stated that it was the vendor's fault and didn't know who was to blame. I asked to be transferred to her manager. I spoke with her manager, Paul, who confirmed that the mistake was not shoes.com's fault but was the fault of ANUSCHKA. I've dealt with people directly at ANUSCHKA, there is absolutely no way they would not honor a completed purchase if it was their fault. I received an address for shoes.com corporate headquarters from manager, Paul - SHOES.COM, 34 CABOT RD., WOBURN, MA, 01801. However, when I googled the corporate office, this is what appears - 1730 Minor Avenue, Suite 700
Seattle, Washington 98101 (CFO ROGER HARDY) or 221 Yale Avenue N., Suite 350
Seattle, WA 98109 USA. Who knows the way this company is run - it's the worst customer service I've ever encountered. NEVER EVER EVER ORDER FROM SHOES.COM. READ THE REVIEWS!"

"My first experience with Shoes.com was really good so I went back. 10 days after placing my order I had heard nothing. On my account on their website it said "In Process". I contacted through chat and was told they would look into it. I received an email later that day telling me that that item was out of stock and my order had been canceled. I called later that afternoon and found out they have the boot I wanted in a half size smaller and at a cheaper price but now I have to expedite the order so I asked for 2 day shipping, only to be told that I would not get them in 2 days because processing could take up to 5. Canceled my order again. Now I'll have to go to Amazon because I know I'll get it in 2 days. Good-bye shoes.com!"

"First of all, let me say that many of the negative reviews here, for Shoes.com, are a bit unjust.
If you notice, most of the negative statements are referring to the return policy and a restocking fee.
The Shoes.com site clearly states that exchanges are free but makes no mention of (Returns).
For info. about returns, you must research the websites return policy, which anyone making an online purchase should do for any purchase on any website. This is common sense and anyone who doesn't practice this step when making an online purchase of any type, (especially for apparel or shoes), may want to re-think making online purchases.
The return policy for Shoes.com clearly states that a $6.95 restocking fee will be charged for any returns for refund.
A very reasonable amount, in my opinion, since they do not charge any return shipping fees.
You must realize that they are covering the shipping fees to send you there product and for you to send it back.
I'm sure that there cost to have someone pick, pack and ship an order is probably more than $6.95. Especially if the order gets returned.
That said, I made my first purchase from Shoes.com on Sunday evening and received my order on Thursday.
The boots that I ordered where just as described and I am very happy with my purchase and the service provided by Shoes.com.
I also saved considerably with a discount coupon code that they provided and the free shipping.
I would recommend purchasing from Shoes.com and as with any online purchase, do your homework and look for discount codes and always check the sites shipping and return policy."

"Bought 3 pairs of shoes based on website advertising FREE returns. None fit so I initiated my free return to go d that they were charging $6.95 a pair for a restocking fee. They sent shoes in two packages and when I complained about their misleading advertising they offered a courtesy one time free return but only included 2 pairs of shoes. After another call they refused to include the 3rd pair saying they already gave me my one time free return and they said they since changed their advertising. I am a consistent internet shopper and will NOT be buying from this site again."

"I asked this company for a proof of shipping for months, also get involved BBB.org and they were not able to provide evidence that the pair of shoes were delivered as they said. I had partial refund of the order, still they due money to me for and 9 months already gone in this dispute. I also got a message from them saying that they were going process my second refund and later denied they sent. In summary don't trust them, from other orders I got shoes that were not the quality I expected and the shoe size is totally different from the same size I can find in a local store. "

"Avoid Shoes.com like the plague. Ordered shoes for my husband. Thye said tracking in 1 to 5 days Didn't ship until 9 days. I called to cancel at 5 days but, they waited 4 days and shipped anyway. I refused the package because my husband went out and bought shoes locally, as I told them he must do. I am certain they will take a re-stocking fee out of what they charged my account for and I will raise holy hell with the bank if they do. This place is a huge rip off and their customer service department is terrible. I don't know how they stya in business. Go anywhere but Shoes.com. Save yourself a lot of grief."

"I ordered a pair of shoes from shoes.com on June 13th, 2017.
They arrived on June 19th, 2017.
The shoes were too narrow for me.
(They were a size wide, but apparently I need a wider size for this type of shoe.)
At any rate, I decided to return the shoes... but time slipped away.
When I went online (June 15th) to get the return label printed the web-site wouldn't let me do it.
So I wrote customer service.
I knew their return policy was 60 days...and it was June 15th - before the 60 days...
but it turns out it is 60 days from the order - not from receiving the shoes.
This seems pretty unfair to me and I certainly won't be ordering from them again.
Customer service would not make an exception."

"I ordered a pair of sandals on July 24, 2017 and received the sandals on July 28, 2017. I took the advice of the seller and went up a half size but, apparently that wasn't enough-the sandals were too short. I called Customer Service on July 29 and advised I would have to return them and to please mail the return postage sticker through the post office as my printer doesn't work. Today is August 19th and I still haven't received the return postage label five calls later. In addition to all this aggravation shoes.com charges $6.95 to re-stock the shoes.....beware the restocking fee guys and remember to have your printer in working order before the time runs out on your return. I would never do business with them again. "
