Full review
I've been meaning to talk about Overstock.com for a while now. Recently, I made my first purchase from them. I've always heard about the site, but never really found anything I needed, until I did a Google search for a Cuttlebug machine. Turns out Overstock had the cheapest price, so I purchased it from them.
Now then, a search engine took me directly to the link where they were selling the Cuttlebug for $48, but just from wandering around on the site it is pretty well organized and easy to find something that you want/need. There are plenty of sub catergories that make sense and everything is well explained and the photos are high quality too.
Let me also mention the chat function offered on this site. Now, on some items they have a price match service. I had found another item elsewhere for a cheaper price and wanted to know if they could match that cheaper price. I used the chat feature to talk with an agent and send him the link of the cheaper price. Turns out they could not match my price because it was a sale item but they did offer me a savings coupon towards my next purchase, so I went ahead and bought the Cuttlebug machine from them and used my coupon.
They accept all major credit cards, and once you place your order you then get an email letting you know they got your order. In a few days, I got another email with a UPS tracking code letting me know my order had been shipped.
For some reason, my package got hung up for a few days and it took a little longer to get to me. It's not a huge deal and I'm not saying that happens on all their orders, but next time if I were buying a gift or something I would probably just make sure I had ample time enough to get it to me in time should there be another hang up.
Anyway, my order made it to me and it was correct, and might I add I also got a deal on shipping, it was only $2.95. So, I had a pretty good shopping experience, and if I found an item cheaper at Overstock I would shop there again.
One complaint I do have though is that this is not one of those places where you can find stuff all the time- the inventory seems to fluctuate rather quickly- I noticed a few days after I got my Cuttlebug they were out of stock, so if you see something that day on Overstock, you had better plan on getting it right then because more than likely it won't be there a few days from then.
But overall, I would recommend this site and I had a pleasant shopping experience there.
