NewChic

Newchic charges you more for shipping than for products

I can still not believe that someone like me would fall for an idiotic trap like this. And that too while doing online shopping. Something which I have been doing for quite a time now.

I guess this is because of the problem of communication. Internet and all is good. They connect you currently in an instant of the moment, to the persons whom you never thought you’d be able to communicate with again.

The style of communication is always different. It is that good. But then, while communication style differs, so does the understanding manner. And you cannot expect the person reading your write-up or email to understand your type of communication.

I went shopping for perfume online. I had previously purchased it from other websites, which were much more familiar. But that’s the thing about online, making you think that everything is normal.

Because here you only are on to one thing, and that is availability. As soon as you know product availability, you want to pay and buy.

You hardly think about the after-sales process, which is enormous. And I think that a lot of online businesses do not offer that. I can say this because I have shared this thing with my friends, and they felt the same.

Not that everyone was conned, but that everyone felt cheated in one way or another. After all, not offering anything that you guarantee is termed cheating in business.

And the thing about online is that all these businessmen can easily escape saying that it wasn’t their fault, but in actual terms, it was our fault. We understood them differently than they expected us to!

So, communication is just becoming an only problem while doing online business.

I purchased three polyester boxer shots perfume from this website named newchic.com. The item was priced at $28. Dollar 28 is such an attractive deal that anyone would be suspicious about it.

But when you get to know that this is a company located in China and that the product will come from China, your suspicion gets the reasoning, and it fades away. This is what happened to me too. I was suspicious at first, but I was all okay when I found out that this was from China.

And took this reason into consideration about duty and all. And shipping and all. And also, Chinese products are always cheap so, that too counts.

They are always good at manufacturing. I recently read in the Newspaper about a bridge that China had built. And how cheaply they have created and how they hold world records in making such marvels at the lowest price.

And obviously, the difference between dollar and yen is such that it makes you think that is the reason for the price to go cheap. But I guess this is where I was wrong.

I am a regular online shopper. And so, when it comes to buying, I know what to buy and what not to. I never have trouble buying online. Even in finding the right size for myself and selecting it.

I am also an expert in buying clothes and selecting the size. I am very particular, especially in clothes, and I know them very well.

My mind is never in the dilemma of whether it will select the right size for the suitable cloth. I even know that size changes from brand to brand. Not majorly, but it certainly does. In clothing brands, it does.

My experience of selecting clothes for myself has also been bad while I was shopping from a website or two, but that’s the difference between a good website and a bad one.

And this one, Newchic.com, was terrible. I reckon they stop selling fashion and luxury items and open a grocery store instead.

My birthday was a week to go, and my husband had asked me if I would like to buy anything for that day. When I mentioned online perfume shopping, he shared with me a voucher that his company had gifted him.

Newchich.com, it was written. Since I was a regular online shopper, I knew the most famous online e-commerce that offered fashion shopping.

I was firstly amused on seeing this name. But then I thought, maybe it’s because of the advancement in technologies that even small vendors are getting into offering services of online cloth shopping.

It turns out that this website was of a company in China that sold fashion items. So I hardly had any chance to know about it. So I decided not to judge.

Even when I made the purchase, I was a little skeptical about receiving it or not. But then, when I discussed it with my husband, he was cheerful, so it affected me too. I waited. And to my surprise, I received the product.

But the product wasn’t as per the expectations. People who smelled me weren’t experiencing the fragrance I expected them to. I realized it after using it for my birthday.

And you get to know it when one smells you and compliments you. Instead of receiving compliments, I received fake compliments, and I know it from the person’s face. So I decided to give it back and return it.

Here comes the final twist. They charge me $9 more than the purchase price as a shipping price. How absurd is that that you pay more for shipping your product than the price at which you’ve purchased it!

This is what newchic.com is all about! If they cannot afford free shipping or ask their customers to pay more than the MRP for shipping, they better work a way out. Why should the customer suffer?

That’s the question that I wish to ask everyone who reads this out?

  1. Cancellation of my order while I paid for it.

    I can’t believe that this Newchic robbed me my money telling me my order was cancelled while I paid for my items I ordered.

    I really need help on how am I going to get my money back.

  2. Return policy, sure......

    I bought 3 shirts, two arrived, tried them on, too small, cancelled the one in transit and asked for return/refund slips, one arrived waited for the other, never arrived. It was not clear that this slip was for both shirts. By this time, it was passed the 30 days for returns. I called them but their policy wouldn;t budge.
    Their chat representitive was great and very apoligetic but she could not give me my refund. I will never buy from this company again. Don’t buy from them, don’t be a sucker like me!!

  3. NEWCHIC is a SCAM do not buy

    NEWCHIC is a SCAM do not buy, they dont actually send you the cloths.. just take the money and give you the run around

  4. Newchic is a scam. Stay away!

    When part of my order turned out to be products they didn’t even have, they “refunded” me less than half of what I paid. When the rest of the order came (two months later), it was damaged, dirty, cheap quality garbage that the dollar store wouldn’t even try to sell. Clothing that doesn’t even resemble what was advertised.

    I wish I had read reviews before ordering because it looks like most of their customers get cheated. I am writing this off to “lesson learned” and will try to steer others away from this horrible company.
