"""""It Saddens me ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ to see this Entire site gettting slammed with Bad reviews
Because of individual sellers!"""" Please read all to Understand

I have a shop on this site I also have a shop on Etsy
As well as Artfire which I closed Down after 7 years, Artfire is the MOST unreliable shop I have dealt with as a selller...
I have FIVE star reviews in all of my shops, Five star for customer service, quality hand created designs, fast shipping and ZERO Problems...
My Customers LOVE ME,

But people on here are Slamming the site for the fault of individual shops.
I as a seller purchased pearl beads from a shop on Etsy and the Experience was HORRIBLE, the product unusable and I would Never buy from them again, BUTTTT
It is Not Etsy that is Horrible but the shop I purchased from...

I like this site Store Envy, Better than Esty, as it tries to help sellers, the site is FREE to Open and list items, commission on sales is reasonable, unlike Etsy that charges for every single listing, relisting, and sales... which cost me about $60 - $100 and month $40 a month RELISTING FEES even if I don't sell ANYTHING!

So visit me and I Guarantee you will love my items and give a 5 star Review to
StoreEnvy even though it is My shop you LOVE:)

Is Wonderful for sellers, and those who purchase from reliable sellers

I just deleted my storevny shop. I closed it exactly 6 months ago and had to wait 6 ridiculous months (their requirement) from the last sale to delete it.

I opened my shop in 2013 / 2014 as an opportunity to generate sales aside from my website.

I was never crazy about the word "envy" in their name cause that is not an "enlightened" word, however I decided to give it a go.

Storenvy started out being completely commission free. In time, they needed to generate income (rightly so) and came up with a way to do so. It was called "The Marketplace."

The Marketplace was supposedly designed to provide additional exposure to the storenvy shops. If customers went to your shop by going to storenvy.com rather than directly to your store, it was considered a "marketplace" sale. All sales that were generated through the marketplace were subject to a 10% commission.

From the start of their initiating the marketplace, they claimed that you always had an option of whether to continue to promote your own store (and not pay a commission) or supposedly increase your exposure and pay the 10% commission.

Since I had my own website and respectable following on my FB business page, I opted not to go with their "Marketplace." Storenvy was already getting tremendous exposure from me because I was promoting it on my website and on my FB page.

A short time after I opted to turn off the "marketplace" option, my weekly sales went from (between 3 - 8 items) to basically nothing.

Several repeat customers had shared with me that they went "directly" to my store only to NOT be able to purchase anything. A few of them were required to completely fill out a brand new buyer "application."

After a couple of months of being hounded by Storenvy "pop ups" and e-mails to "open the marketplace" option, I decided to do so.

Here and there, a few orders came in, however it was nothing like what I had been getting. And... the majority of these purchases were shown as coming from the marketplace. I know for a fact that the majority of these customers went DIRECTLY to my store using the link I advertised on my website and FB page.

You know the expression. You can't beat someone at their own game? Well, that is true.

If storenvy had charged a flat 3% (across the board), my shop would still be there.

They appear to offer sellers an option to join their "marketplace" and if they don't... Oh well.

Title says it all. It's similar to ebay. The quality of service you get dramatically depends on the seller you buy from. Make sure to purchase through paypal so your purchase is protected (in case you never receive your order). I've now ordered from storenvy 3 separate times and I had two good experiences and one just okay (seller took 3 weeks to send it out). Be careful, read the ratings, and hope for the best, but definitely protect your money and use paypal when purchasing.

I ordered a dress from Storenvy.com, I am thinking that the dress is at the Fashion Mall in Oklahoma at the store called the Wedding Store. The store and the mall doesn't even exist. I paid through PayPal and they make believe store is someone in China by the name of Zhu Pei is the person who made the dress. The dress the day of the Mardi Gras ball and it was so poorly made until I could not accompanied my husband's at the Mardi Ball. DO NOT BUY ANYTHING FROM STORENVY.COM. They don't even have an address or telephone number to call so you can ask questions. THIS COMPANY IS BEYOND TRIFLING!

I know there are a lot of bad reviews about this website (I understand why they're there and will explain their stance in my review) but my experience was certainly a good one, and I want to show people the good side of the website rather than a list of complaints.
Most people are only compelled to write a review about ANYTHING if they had a bad experience, and when I was thinking about using this website the reviews almost made me choose not to. I'm glad I chose to use it. I ordered from a seller named No Face Neko, and my order was estimated to arrive three to four weeks after my payment processed. It came in the mail after just two weeks, which was a huge relief considering some reviews said orders never came. Now it's time to address the bad reviews you see below.
The website doesn't carry the merchandise itself. It's a place where a bunch of independent sellers can post their products for you to order, and storenvy takes a small service charge. The quality of your order experience is completely dependent on which seller you actually buy from. I was lucky enough to have a legitimate seller who did everything in a timely fashion. If you're unlucky, you might order something from someone who doesn't take it very seriously, meaning you'd wait for ages until you actually get anything. I'd recommend taking a look and seeing if the seller you're buying from has other products up for sale as well, or if the thing you're looking at is the only one. That might help assess their credibility.
Overall, I had a great experience using storenvy, and unlike most people who enjoy their experience, I chose to share it here. The other reviews all seem to be complaints from people who got unlucky with their seller, but don't assume that's how every order went. Enjoy!

Bought a pair of Adidas sneakers. They took my $, replied it was shipped, I never received (waited 11 days before I inquired). They didn't follow-up by sending me a tracking number like they said they would. The store itself wouldn't reply to ANY of my 3 emails. Had to chase down someone from Storenvy to 'help'. They got a hold of the seller and told me i was refunded after my first email even tho they decided not to reply letting me know themselves.

Second time, I bought items from Brooklyn Whiskey Distillery... glass jars of char. I received quickly but one of the jars was shattered. Charcoal and glass. They threw 6 glass jars in the box with a layer of bubble wrap on the bottom and top... they DID NOT individually wrap.

Horrible!

I ordered a pair of Rihanna Puma Slides for my daughter during the holiday. I was told that the item should arrive between January 2-6. I emailed them back and asked why so late? Why couldn't I receive my daughters shoes before Christmas? I was told, due to a high stream of theft, they wanted to make sure that their customers items were secure. Well guess what? I never received my package at all. Email them and got a nice response right away saying that my order was canceled and that they had sent my refund. I asked why didn't I get a cancellation notice? I got no response. I email them again saying it had been two weeks and I still haven't received my shoes or my refund. It has been over a month and I'm getting no response. I reported them to BBB. These people have made Christmas 2016 very sad for my little girl and many other people. Please report these people! No one should take from anyone. I truly hope that you all get your refunds.

Right after I ordered from storenvy their site went down and hasn't been up since, the contact i was given Tiffany Banks is very rude and sent me a long reply about "you people just want something to complain about, why would I rip you off for lipstick?!? Fine, I'm sending orders out today and it looks like yours is one less order i need to ship". She repeatedly said You People, I'm guessing it's because everyone who ordered a Christmas gift that was promised to be here by now, the 23rd, is upset they never received what they ordered by the time they were promised. I was told it was being shipped a long time ago, not two days before Christmas, so that was just proof that it's a scam and 'Tiffany Banks' is a liar. I was never given a tracking number and she tried to argue with me that every customer is given a tracking number. Well, I wasn't. I ordered the same thing from a seller on Ebay here in California and i received my product three days after i ordered for half the price! Storenvy, stylelick and Tiffany Banks are a scam and i would urge anyone and everyone to stay away from the sites. Stick to Ebay, Amazon and Etsy. I've never had a problem with purchase from those three sites.
