I was wondering if anyone here had ever ordered from Overstock.com. I have been pricing two quilting books and a ruler on several sites including Overstock, Amazon, and Connecting Threads. With their low prices and free shipping Overstock looks like the best deal but I'm a bit nervous as I have never ordered from them before. Any info would be appreciated - TIA ladies!!

I was very pleased with my order from Overstock.com.

earlylace 11-27-2010 05:36 PM

great site, had no problems.

mamaw 11-27-2010 05:36 PM

I have ordered 3 times and never a problem.

DH and I have ordered from Overstock.com many times and have never had an issue.

I haven't ordered from them in a few years. In the past, the orders always arrived. Overstock is somewhat known for less-than-stellar customer service.

As long as you don't have any issues with what you order, it is no problem. I don't think you would have any issues with books and rulers. I would probably order these from them.

You can go to ResellerRatings.com and check the reviews of hundreds of different shops.

Overstock.com's page is here:

I wouldn't rate them as low as this does, but people are always more likely to take the time to complain.

DebraK 11-27-2010 05:41 PM

yes, with no problems.

still using my brother sewing machine!!! LOve them!

moonangel12 11-27-2010 05:45 PM

I have ordered many times from them, and even when I had some issues with one order (dishes, for a Christmas gift - one bowl was broken) they were quick to exchange them for me... no complaints here!

nativetexan 11-27-2010 05:46 PM

also see if www.edwardrhamilton.com has the books. very cheap and only $3.50 shipping.

DH and I just ordered a memory type mattress and got it shipped for 1 dollar. This one goes into the travel trailer we just got. We were very happy with the product and the quickness with whwich we got it.

I have ordered from them many times, no problems at all :D:D:D

craftyone27 11-27-2010 06:02 PM

Thanks ladies!!! I'm relieved - a few years ago I had heard some not so great things about Overstock customer service. The experiences here seem overwhelmingly to the good. I just hit enter and my order is complete! Here's hoping I have a good experience as well!

I ordered chair covers and they were a name brand, much cheaper from Overstock and the service was good. I would order from them again.

klgreene 11-27-2010 06:05 PM

I've ordered several times, no problem.

dsb38327 11-27-2010 06:08 PM

I am glad you placed your order. I have ordered from them many times and have been very happy withe everything I ordered. I have an order on the way now.

moonangel12 11-27-2010 06:12 PM

Slightly off topic, but if anyone needs king size bedding, overstock is THE place to go! They don't charge more for different sizes (at least that's been the case for what I have purchased)... I am getting ready to order and King size memory foam topper for around $70!

vesta_f 11-27-2010 06:15 PM

i buy from them all the time they have great prices on bedding and the deliver fast

amandasgramma 11-27-2010 06:22 PM

I've ordered from them a lot and NEVER have had a problem......

maine ladybug 11-27-2010 06:26 PM

I have been using Overstock for many years ( about 11 ) even before they began advertizing and people had really heard of them. I have never once had a problem with them.

Cyn 11-27-2010 07:16 PM

I never had problems with them.

mollymct 11-27-2010 07:27 PM

I've ordered many times! No problems here either.

wesing 11-27-2010 08:08 PM

I have ordered sheets and a pair of nightstands. Both arrived when they promised, and the quality was great.

Renee110 11-27-2010 08:36 PM

I've ordered from them for about 7 years, and I've never had a problem.

smiles 11-27-2010 08:37 PM

I have ordered books & movies, have them shipped to friends in the US for the free shipping. No problems and they send confermation of order and again when it is shipped.

mmonohon 11-27-2010 08:38 PM

Overstock.com is great.

Yes, they are great to order from - no problems what so ever.

sandilee 11-28-2010 12:16 AM

I have ordered from them a couple times and no problems, either. I wold order from them again if the time came.

craftyone27 12-07-2010 05:44 PM

Just wanted you all to know I got everything I ordered- yay!! Each item was shipped separately which was a little odd - but as it was free no complaints! All items arrived as promised and in perfect condition in just over a week. Considering all the items being shipped for the holidays I think that is pretty good delivery time. Thanks for the input!

IrishNY 12-07-2010 06:41 PM

I have two rugs in my house from overstock. Great product, good price, no hassle. Go for it!

vesta_f 02-23-2011 04:01 PM

overstock is wonderful i buy all my sheets from them. but i do find some things over priced in the craft dept. have you looked at connecting threads there book prices are great

FQ Stash Queen 02-23-2011 04:10 PM

I order from them a lot (cuz I'm cheap). Only had one item in all these years that I was unhappy with and they took care of it immediately. Love their linens. Cherie

Carron 02-23-2011 04:14 PM

I am expecting a delivery today....first time for me ordering from Overstock... hope it goes well.

craftyone27 02-23-2011 04:15 PM

Not sure why this topic has popped up again. Since I started it, let me just say that I placed my order long ago and happily received everything. The prices were better than Connecting Threads for everything or I would have ordered from them. Feel free to post experiences if you want, but my original question has been answered. Thanks for the input though.
