Which one of us doesn't get excited when they recieve a package in the post?? I can hardly contain myself whenever I do.
Today I recieved a package via registered mail from Singapore. The detailed description of contents read 'Toy' on opening it, here's what I discovered
A completely scratched up, bent and broken necklace which I had ordered with my credits from oasap a few weeks ago.
What I ordered looked like this:
I am probably guessing that the packaging and handling was rough, not only is it broken, the leopard print parts as you can see from the third picture is coming off the metal, and what you can't see from my pictures is the scratches on gold plating which is chipping off on the sides. The necklace has also completely lost shape. Also, it was labelled as a 'toy'.. which is what I would attribute the rough handling to.
I will try and send it back and hopefully get a replacement and report back D.I.Y Queens are probably wondering whay I don't just fix it, the truth is, I wanted to fix the 'broken hinges' but when I saw how bent the black part is and how scrached up it was, I decided against it. Has anyone encountered this problem before??

It's a pity that the necklace is broken because it's a lovely pieces, hopefully you can get a new one.

That looks like a packaging issue, as shipping jewelry is the hardest thing to ship! Hopefully, there will be no issues with the return and your new one will come back perfect like the picture! I love this necklace too! It's so cool! xx Pip

DeleteOn the photo it looks much better then "in real life"...
I had the same problem but with other site. Package was also labeled as toy and I got broken necklace too. I don't know why they don't put "fragile" on the package. I somehow managed to edit the necklace so I didn't contacted them but I should have...
ReplyDeleteI usually have the experience on my ebay orders and so i totally decide to avoid buying again from the seller, but all my orders from Oasap by far are always intact.
ReplyDeleteI hope you receive a replacement quickly!

That really sucks! The item was so beautiful and in perfect condition that's why you order it! I really hate it when I am actually excited and giddy for my packages to arrive then I'll learn and see it broken. I can take the delay but broken items are a no-no! Hope they can fix it for you because it is such a waste!

What a beautiful necklace! So sorry it came in broken! And you definitely shouldn't fix anything yourself, and do not send it back until you contact the seller. Maybe the store wouldn't want to pay for the shipping back to them and just ask you to destroy the broken one and send you a new one.

That's so disappointing! I always expect to have to tighten jump rings on jewelery when I order it but not to completely rebuild the piece! Sending it back was a good choice!
ReplyDeleteOh no! That is so disappointing, I hope they will send you a replacement! Thanks for stopping by, I'd love for us to keep in touch! :)

ReplyDeleteTHIS SAME THING HAPPENED TO ME! I ordered a necklace almost exactly like this and it arrived in pieces. Unfortunately it was a final sale. I am no DIY queen but I hope to finagle some chic way to bring it back to life.
