Open for Vintage
Reviews & Experiences

Many reviewers highlight fast, helpful customer service and item descriptions that match what arrives. A sizable group reports silence after purchase, including cancelled orders and refunds that never came through. Several mention delivery or website problems, and a few flag quality issues on arrival. Overall, reviews point to strong front-line support but weak post-order communication and fulfilment.

What reviewers often mention

🎯

Service quality

Positive service feedback leads. Reviewers often describe support as prompt, efficient, and polite, with quick deliveries and returns handled smoothly. A few also mention named staff resolving early problems and turning the experience around.

💰

Value for money

Many customers say the price matched the condition for vintage luxury items. One reviewer specifically noted competitive pricing along with fast delivery. A small number of reviews raise concerns about VAT display and an unexpected price increase.

User experience

Several reviewers found ordering straightforward, with items shown clearly at checkout. Others report stock mistakes on the site, delayed dispatch, and tracking that didn’t feel reliable. These issues appear less often than smooth-checkout comments but come up repeatedly.

🔧

Product quality

Most reviewers say items arrive as described and in very good condition. A minority report quality problems, including one isolated account of a dead insect in a parcel. Some buyers treated vintage traits, such as an older smell, as expected.

📞

Communication

Communication problems are the main source of negative feedback. Multiple reviewers describe emails and calls going unanswered, cancellations with no clear explanation, and refunds that never arrived. A few also mention mixed messages from support, plus one serious claim that an order was shipped using a stolen card.

Overall experience

Reviews split between smooth purchases with attentive staff and orders that stalled after checkout. Strong service moments sit alongside repeated stories of non-response and fulfilment failures. That gap between great front-line help and weak post-sale communication leaves overall satisfaction sharply divided.

Catrina 4/5

I am the one who usually does research to find goods on the internet. I found this store by chance and saw the Hermes Red Togo Leather Kelly 35 Retourne Bag Handbag immediately. I decided to buy it with a high level of requirements, because I wanted it all to be in its best condition as much as possible. The store is awesome, very attentive, you can always ask for information about product deliveries in real-time. The transaction was very smooth, the delivery fast, and I liked the way of communicating. I definitely will visit their website again soon to see what great products they sell.Thank you so much!
