Careful girls!!
Found this thread earlier and starting looking around at all the sites provided. For
sammydress and
rosewholesale the prices were indeed ridiculous, so much that more research was in order. And that's how I discovered these two sites are borderline scams.
First thing to look at is the facebook pages. I went through several of the facebook comments for rosewholesale and several of them where people who had heard nothing of their orders after months, or only received part of it, or obtained ridiculously small sizes even by asian standards.
One individual in particular was posting warning comments in nearly every post from this company.
Naturally I was concerned that maybe it's just a case of disgruntled people being the ones to complain, people ordering the wrong sizes, people expecting international packages faster than they should ... but instead, every site I visited led to more and more horror stories.
Sitejabber reviews of the site are for the most part awful, with some solid ones in between that tend to have poor english and lead me to think they were more likely to be from PR representatives of the company.
There's a bunch of youtube reviews of both sammydress and rosewholesale, and while there's a bunch of positive ones, they all name similar issues: sizes not being what was expected, shipping times going beyond normal to the point it takes MONTHS, things being of very poor and cheap material that breaks or falls apart easily, customer service ignoring complaint tickets, seethrough fabrics, sizes being extremely small, etc etc etc.
Bottom line is: yes, everything seems super cheap, but chances are that it is the case because of things being cheap knockoffs that attempt to barely resemble the images they provide.
From what I've seen online, there are some cases of people getting what they wanted, or a product that is not 100% as expected but still wearable/usable, but considering the huge shipping cost due to international shipping and the ridiculous and unreliable wait time, the whole experience seems like a gamble.
I truly hope that helps, I see a lot of you are really excited (I was too at first ... coats for less than $25? YES PLEASE) so I would hate for these sites to be fraudulent and disappoint people here.
In any case, I look forward to hearing from those of you that already ordered. Best of luck!
