I’ve shopped w/
over the years and have been happy w/​my purchases. I bought the Movado bangle watch w/​the bracelet spring that broke and which they fixed at no cost. I’ve bought several wedding gifts. And in April I bought a patio umbrella to replace the one the squirrels chewed over the winter. It was a little lighter in weight than the old one, which had come from Costco a few years ago, but seemed like it would work out just fine. I put it up a couple of weeks after it arrived and have just left it up. Returning from Pacific Grove yesterday, I noticed it leaning at an odd angle. When I went outside to check it out, I found an internal plastic piece connecting the two parts of the pole had snapped. It was unfixable. This morning I went on the company’s website to write them a letter. I could find no customer service contact information, but there was a prominent place to contact Patrick Byrne, the president of the company. So I wrote to him, figuring he could pass it on to the proper department. I explained what had happened and asked if it were covered or if we were just out of luck. I just received a phone call from a very sweet woman in his office who apologized for the breakage and said they would send me another. She offered to send it expedited shipping and I told her not to spend the extra money, that we could wait a few days. She asked that we send back the broken one. She suggested using the box the new one came in, since we’d already recycled the old box. She would arrange for UPS to pick it up. Five stars for stellar customer service. They went beyond what I had expected!

This was one of the stores that started my online buying experiences. I have always been pleased with the products I’ve purchased through Overstock… from a memory foam mattress topper, to accessories for my Ipod, to an Aerobed, to a Sanus articulating flatscreen wall mount.
$ 2.95 shipping (or sometimes free) and no sales tax… hard to beat.

I received my shoes with in 4 days and I really like my shoes.
I will shop again…

I’m never disappointed! When I go to buy something, I go to the «O» first. I’ve bought the following items: Bedding, down feather beds, kitchen appliances, cookware, jewelry, clothes, purses, perfume, a chair (a bad-​ass chair I might add) and towels and bathroom accessories… oh and some light fixtures! Everything shipped for $ 2.95, and I got delivered to my door within 3 – 4 days! I love
. Please don’t be a dope and pay full price. I’m going to go to
right now in fact and see what deals they have today!

I agree with DJ M. I have always been very happy with the items I have purchased from Overstock. You do, however, have to do your homework and KNOW exactly what you are looking for. (Some of the deals are not as «deal-​y» as you might first believe.
Usually I get linens and towels here and have scored some top-​quality, high thread count sheets that I was ogling in catalogs for much less money.
I have not purchased any «big ticket» items from overstock like diamond jewelry nor watches, nor furniture.
But for small to mid-​priced items — I do my comparison shopping and if I can’t get it on ebay I sure as heck try Overstock.

contributed to the white fluffy heaven that is our bed.
You can find some great deals on bedding and there are usually a lot of reviews to help since you’re not able to feel it and see it in person. We bought 600 thread count sheets and big 1500 thread count down pillows (omg they are HUGE!) and 800 thread count big pillow cases for our giant down pillows… it’s a thread count wonderland!
Shipping is fast and cheap ($ 3 or so, you can’t beat that), good service the times I’ve needed help (I am a big fan of any website that has online chat customer service).
Great for bedding, I’ll be back for that.

*** a last minute thought for last minute xmas shoppers … ***
has some amazingly cheap deals, so even
if you did not take advantage for xmas, do so the day after xmas.
i have gotten bar stools delivered to my front door for $ 65/​each.
i also scored some really cool outdoor speakers for $ 35/​each.
the quality of items has been good, so nice bang for the buck!
*** if you don’t get what you want for xmas, gift yourself here. ***

I have never been a big fan of shopping in the stores. Parking, lugging packages, crowds, lines and trying to make last minute decisions!
Hindsight is fallible and for those that had the vision to start up on line companies, like
,
and
are my hero’s!
In 1999, Dr. Patrick Byrne recognized the potential of liquidating excess inventory through the Internet. This brilliant idea saved many companies from loss and saved us money. It was a win-​win solution.
If you need it or want it, they have it, from Cars to Furniture, to Clothing to Jewelry. My last purchase was the most sophisticated Microwave that Grills, Broils and Microwaves. I will never use the first 2 features and I only ever use a Microwave to reheat, but it is still an essential. It is Stainless Steel and black and it is huge. There was a dent on the side of it, but it fits into it’s space and for the price I paid, I did not complain.
I have always been happy with my purchases and delivery. So, if you hate crowds of shoppers and running from this store to that one, sit down and shop!

I have bought all sorts of shit from
.
Got a snazzy watch for my oldest boy for a steal.
I’ve bought more pairs of ridiculous heels that I care to admit for a fraction of what they’d have cost elsewhere.
I’ve bought designer jeans for peanuts.
Got my mom a lovely locket (that she NEVER wears) for way cheap. (Did I mention she never wears it?)
Birthday, Christmas, Wedding presents.
Textbooks, handbags, and electronics.
I’m a huge fan of any place that charges anywhere from $ 1.00 (sometimes) to $ 2.95 (most of the time) to ship anything and everything that they sell.
So, far, everything I’ve bought has been pretty awesome.

«Dear Overstock,
My coat arrived in two business days!!! You guys are f**king awesome!!! I love you.

Great resource when you don’t want to be on the prowl for parking, stand on line, fight crowds, feel defeated when they sell out of your size, pay full sticker price, and end up eating food court chow. Lurve my coat. I am wearing it with the tags still attached as I write! $ 2.95 shipping and no tax since I don’t live in Utahhhhh! Overstock rawks my world.

I bought a diamond tennis bracelet for nearly $ 450 at
.
The bracelet catch was of poor quality, so I took it to a jeweler. He told me the diamonds in the bracelet were worth about $ 50, as they contained numerous flaws, visible to the naked eye.
Advice: avoid this store

is great. I’ve bought a $ 500 Canon digital camera for 50% off, a 1 GB memory card for $ 16 and a birthday present for my Love just now. I am also a member of MyPoints so I get 10 points for every dollar I spend. For my Love’s birthday present, I could have gotten shipping for $ 2.95 but I needed it sooner than 5 days so I paid $ 9 more. Highly recommended.

I’ve bought shoes here, books here … even a couch. The $ 1 shipping special is awesome. $ 1 to ship a full sized couch? I don’t think my UPS man appreciated it, but I offered him soda.
Not a bad selection of product, decent prices and some surprising finds. Good place to start if you don’t know what your taste is — so when you search «desk», you get everything from kid’s desks, to secretary desks to compact office centers.
The reviews are suprisingly trustworthy … if people say it’s missing a screw, expect to be screwed on the screw. Otherwise, a good way to spend your hard earned buck.

For electronics, I almost always look at their price. I’ve bought a laptop from them, some books, etc…
What’s great about them is the flat $ 2.95 shipping. You might find another store with cheaper price, but after adding the shipping usually the «O» comes out less.
Recommended for lazy shoppers like me! I’m not one of them girls that luuuuv shopping. I don’t really care for it, so this is a good site for me :)

Dare I admit that I’ve shopped at the «BIG O» on several occasions before the ads on television came out? I’ve ordered a couple of my favorite pieces of jewelry from
. I purchased a cute pearl necklace, a sterling silver heart bracelet and some fashion rings at really bargain basement prices. ($ 50 for necklace, $ 19.99 for the bracelet and $ 20 for the rings)
Also, I ordered some really soft ivory sateen sheets on
a couple of years ago for $ 35.00. WHAT A STEAL. I still use them and my boyfriend has even mentioned how soft they are compared to our other sheets.

On rare occasions,
is terrific; you can find a legitimate bargain now and again, even after shipping. The hit-​and-​miss stock is quirky, though, siding quality merchandise right up next to some items which are more or less knock-​offs.
The worst thing, though, is their Club O program. Don’t fall for this as I did.
First: read the fine print THOROUGHLY, because it may surprise you. I found that pretty much every time I wanted to order, my discount and/​or free shipping didn’t apply because of whatever reason (no CDs, no books, special clearance item, etc.). I found out about this the day after I’d paid my annual fee and so requested a refund, which was promptly denied. (Fair enough — my fault for not squinting — but who would have thought that a membership giving you a percentage off all your purchases for a year PLUS free shipping whoo hooo! would actually mean «oh, yeah — except for this category and these items and these sales and this and this thing and this over here and, no, sorry, no discounts on that no, and this, and this… BUT ANYTHING ELSE except that is fine!)
Even though I’ve made a couple of purchases from Overstock since then, my membership has yet to do Jack Squat for me, except get me e-​mail reminders to renew my membership.
Uh, no thanks.
So, if you’re a smart shopper and savvy (check back on prices every week or so; drastic changes can happen), don’t bother with Overstock. Sketchy, sketchy way of doing business.

I like this website and everything I have ordered has been delivered in great condition and promptly. I make sure to check this site to see what deals I can get but tend to find the same, if not better deals, on Amazon and Ebay.
But you can rely on this company to deliver you a great product-​like my pimp pillowtop air mattress!

Can order just about anything, though the mix of crap and quality merchandise varies.
Order fulfillment and shipping is pretty fast but «List Price» is often unrealistic.
Rarely have shoes and clothes I want available in my size.

I’m always looking for a bargain to fly out to Vegas. Southwest ain’t cheap or available last minute anymore!
Stumbled upon
when I was looking under the ‘travel’ tab, I thought it was actually a link to luggage or travel accessories. Lo and behold, it was flight and hotel deals!
Booked MONDAY for travel on FRIDAY, a 4 day notice, on SW it would be about $ 300 r/​t pp from SJC to LAS.
Booked:
2 r/​t non-​stop tix on Ted by United
2 nts in a Jr. Suite @ the Signature @ MGM Grand
For a cool $ 1050
One downside, they don’t allow for e-​tix, they getcha with printed mailed tix at a hefty shipping charge. But alas. I saved a bundle, got a great hotel, decent flight times, what’s $ 30!!!
They also have a great selection of designer duds. I was eying a pair of hot silver Prada sandals the other night at 30% off!

I love
but I’ve only ever bought bedding there. In fact, I’ve bought bedding about 7 – 8 times now through them in the last 3 years and it’s always been really good… really good quality sheets for a fraction of the cost.
I just received my 660 thread count sheets (which I paid $ 60 for) and they often do specials in terms of shipping — either free shipping — in my case $ 1 for shipping this time around.
Totally a bargain if you’re looking for sheets!!!
