Agree Zappos Is Not the Same It used to be that Zappos offered overnight shipping. The last time I ordered, they could not manage this. Customer service was quite poor on a phone call at the holiday season. I needed a new QR code so I could drop the shoes off at a Whole Foods store. The one I'd received by email wasn't readable. The person helping me on the phone had no idea how to communicate. When I went to Whole Foods to drop the return with the QR code I was sent, I was informed it was a code for a return at a UPS store. At UPS, I was unable to make the return without a shipping box. I was in a hurry and had to pay them to do it. What a pain in the neck.

Customer service was great … Maria in Customer service department was great! I reached out via chat option, and she was able to help me out and fix my issue within 5 minutes. Great service, you normally don’t come across such stellar service with online retailers. I will be ordering again and Maria deserves a shout out for being so friendly and knowledgeable.

Do not buy hats from Zappos! I have received 2 Melin hats in the past week that were squished flat in individual paper mailing envelopes. As a result the front panels were creased and unwearable. After the first hat was received in a similar fashion, the customer service rep confirmed the replacement hat would shipped in a box. Obviously that did not happen. Not going take the risk and try a third time. Will make my purchase elsewhere.

Zappos return policy has changed drastically… Zappos policy has changed drastically for the worse. I got an obnoxious email threatening my return privileges despite the fact that I did keep several of the shoes I had ordered. I had a toe infection (and lost my big toenail) for over a year, which made it hard for me to find a comfortable shoe, so the returns were due to that. Zappos used to be known for their 365 day free return policy, but no more. Just an ordinary and pretty unfeeling company now, like most others. Beware!

Not sure why bad ratings Not sure why bad ratings. Isn't hurting Zappos in least bit. Probably bots trying to influence. So let me change the tide. Good company, solid product offering, good support and fast shipping. There!
