This site has given me nothing but issues. I placed my order and attempted contact with the seller a week later. This was a gift and i wanted to make sure i received the item in time. Rather than emailing me back the store cancelled my order without refunding my money. I am now in a payment dispute with PayPal because neither the seller nor storenvy has returned any of my emails. I just want what I paid for or my money back. This site might work well for sellers because they can scam people out of money but I wouldn't recommend buying anything from them.
I have been on Storenvy for two years and love it. As a store owner they have always been great about helping out when I have had a problem and keeping us posted on what is going on. I have bought from multiple shops on storenvy with wonderful experiences. They all have been very professional, fulfilled orders immediately, and all products I have received have been wonderfully made with great customer service. I recommend Storenvy to all my friends and family, and was even talking to my doctor about it the other week at my appointment.
Love everything! Where can you get a fully functioning custom web store for $5.00 a month. And a marketplace to boot! Its the best option of me especially no listing fees cant wait til the launch mobile!
I've been selling on Storenvy for a little over a year now and I love it! My shop gets so much more traffic than I ever did in 3 years on Etsy. Anytime I have an issue, I get a fast response from the help team, plus they are available on social media which is great! I appreciate that I can customize my store to fit my brand.
I highly recommend Storenvy for both buying and selling.
Nothing but positive experiences as a buyer and a seller on Storenvy! It's a welcome change from the overcrowded Etsy market and I love having no fees! I get a lot more traffic on Storenvy as well!
I researched online shop platforms for a couple of months before deciding on Storenvy & i love the ease of use, the free listings and the wonderful community - i would definitely recommend it to anyone wanting to start an online shop :)
I love Storenvy! I sell on there and I've purchased things multiple times. As for selling, traffic is a little slow, but that's where you come in. You need to advertise your site. There are no fees from SE, so it's completely free to sell on there. Also your shop is customizable. It's great.
As for purchasing on SE, you have to regard each shop as its own separate entity, just like you would on any other website like this. There are good sellers and there are bad sellers. There are more good, than bad. You can't be mad at SE, because one of their sellers isn't great, just like you can't get mad at eBay for the same thing.
Storenvy is the best place for ecommerce on the web! Free product listings, free customizations, awesome partnerships with other products to provide fantastic extras, free Facebook page integration, very very fast customer support. Need I say more?!
Storenvy is AMAZING! First of all, it's an online marketplace like Etsy but is COMPLETELY FREE! For small business owners starting out not having to pay any listing fees or commissions is a huge plus. But, being free you might think eh, it'll do the job but no, it does the job AMAZINGLY WELL! The interface is beautiful, both for the shop owner and customer, they have great customer support when anything goes wrong, and do a ton of work to build an extremely strong and supportive community.
I'm a shop owner, and I love it, the community, the ability to really customize your store to suite your brand. As a seller you really have to promote/market your stuff but I don't see that as an issue when it ought to be done anyway - cant just list a few things and expect to be rolling in the dough within a couple weeks. There are some really amazing artists on this site... and remember that each one is individual, one bad store does not speak for the rest or storenvy - just like etsy is. Highly recommend this place for unique and handmade awesomeness.
I use Storenvy as both a seller and a buyer, and so far, I have nothing but positive experiences with the site. It's easy to use, customer service is normally very prompt and the custom stores are so awesome!
I have been buying and selling on SE for almost a year, I love the ease of shopping and simplicity of selling.
I have been using Storenvy for over 4 years and totally love this site. Every person I have every purchased from via Storenvy.com has been prompt with filling orders and the items are always incredible! I love how hands on the Storenvy staff is and would never consider selling elsewhere, and it is always the first place I go to shop for pretty much everything - gifts, clothing, toys, accessories, home wares, art... :) Highly recommend it!
I don't use this as much as etsy but I still use it a lot. I love the service. The only problem I have is when I'm doing the checkout, it calculates everything together, vein though the items are from different shops, so I need to remove items to make different purchases.
I just reserved space for a store on Storenvy but have not listed items as yet. But I visited several stores and liked what I saw. That is why I signed up. Subsequently I received emails, resources, and guides to help me. It appears to have a very helpful and responsive Administrative staff. One can't ask for more than that when selecting a venue. I look forward to selling there and getting to know the wonderful artists who are there already. Check them out.
I am a Store Owner on Storenvy, and absolutely love it. The Staff is helpful, and even though the Site does have Problems at times, they are quickly resolved. I used to have a Store on Etsy, with no Sales. But remember, it takes alot of Promoting of your Store to get Sales in. Sale isn`t for everyone. If you have a Store here: Promote, Promote, Promote and don`t give up. If you have bought an Item on here, and did not receive it, it is NOT Storenvy`s fault.
The no Fees, does help BIG TIME, and I appreciate it alot.
Forget about having a shop on here. They are constantly having issues with their servers and their options. Don't bother paying extra for sale codes because you should just leave a message on the site to leave a code in the comment box. No one trusts storenvy so you can have thousands of views but only 1 sale every 3 months if you are lucky. The majority of my sales ended up being kids stealing their parents credit cards and then the parents claiming unverified payment. Which paypal instantly just gives them their money back and so you lose twice. Also you have to pay paypal refund transfer fees each time you spot a payment that is uncertified or unconfirmed. The owners try to respond, but they are very generic with their responses. Some what expected. Some of the other store owners act like they are so awesome in the facebook forums. Instead of having empathy for your issues they will tear you a new one. So expect that if you have any issues. It is like fanboys and fangirls.
I've been absolutely amazed by the amount of product available on this site. As a store owner, and a customer, I've had absolutely no bad experiences. There are groups on Facebook that are run by Admin and Storenvy personnel that work tirelessly to help if I have a question or concern... and the individual store owners have great communication too.
It's sad to see that some people have had an issue here or there with a shop owner, however, one experience that didn't go well is the fault of that shop owner and not the platform itself. It makes me wonder if there were contact details available for that shop owner.
Koodos to the designers of this platform, for all the improvements they work so hard on every day, and how fast they listen when the shop owners ask questions or suggest improvements. I personally haven't used the widgets or 3rd party designs... the original layout was perfect for me and my customers. Thank you for the opportunity to get my brand out there, and for me to reach so many wonderfully talented people!
Answer: No! Please stay far away from this site.
Answer: Honestly, I'm very surprised by these reviews too. We have over 100,000 store owners, so I suppose there are bound to be some people who didn't have a great experience. But we certainly have a lot of successful, loyal merchants.
Answer: Just like Etsy or Amazon, Storenvy isn't a single seller, it's a site featuring shops hosted by a network of different sellers. My advice would be to check out the information on the page of the particular seller you're looking at. Look at their feedback and their shipping timelines, and that should give you a better idea of what to expect. Most of the sellers there are fantastic, but it's always best to do research before buying from a new person :)
Answer: Its not "technically" a scam, its just a website with a bunch of people who put up stores. The problem is many of those people are not good at running a business (and the individual store owners might be scams or might not be) and the company "storeenvy" takes no responsibility for their actions. You will have better luck on EBAY or AMAZON because there is buyer protection and actual customer support. StoreEnvy is not a 'scam', they just suck.
Answer: Each seller is independent within the site. I never got a response from Storenvy customer service, so Paypal refunded my $. So you take your chances. Ebay will refund if the item is not as described or pictured. Also look at where the item ships from, if it's China, it could take 2 weeks and more.
Answer: Your best bet is to pay close attention to the reviews for the seller. Much like Amazon or Etsy or eBay, each seller is responsible for their store and the things they sell in it - which means some things are going to be fabulous and some won't be. So check the reviews and make sure you know that the seller you're trying has a solid reputation with their buyers and consistently delivers a good quality product.
Answer: Nope i wouldn't do it... the whole site is fraud. Myself and a few other people are in pursuit of getting our money back.
