I also wish I had read these reviews before ordering. Same results: "in stock" then
"1-2 weeks" then no response to my email... They should be put out of business. Pay Pal paid them for nothing.

I wish I had seen these reviews sooner! I ordered something for my niece on 2/13 - it said ships in 2-3 business days. I e-mailed them on 2/25 and they sent me a link that stated the order would ship in 1-2 weeks because it was backordered - it did not state that it was backordered on the site. On 3/12 I sent another e-mail as I had not recieved my order and I received a respone on 3/13 stating that it will ship on 4/1 because it is backordered. I have very little faith that I will ever received what I paid for!

I ordered several items from craftersmarket.net and all but 3 were shipped on April 19. Those 3 items were supposed to be shipped 4-7 days later. I still have not received them, nor have I received a refund or any correspondence from the company. I e-mailed them to see when the items would be shipped and never got a response. I guess they are just going to keep my money. Buyers beware! Do not use this site!

I placed an order with Crafter's Market, which was supposed to ship within 2-3 business days. A week later, it had not shipped, and I wrote an e-mail to inquire whether there was a problem. The information that shipping was between 1-2 weeks suddenly appeared in red above my order on the Crafter's Market website. I wrote back, indicating that I wished to cancel the order, but received no reply. Again, I wrote, stating I would wait until the two weeks were up and then file a claim with PayPal. I received no answer. After 17 days past order placement and no reply from Crafter's Market, I initiated a claim with PayPal, receiving a refund within two days.
I find it worth mentioning that one cannot write a review on the Crafter's Market site, for good reason. The reviews are abysmally bad, and I am adding my own one-star evaluation here. This is not a good business to purchase from, but I have learned a valuable lesson: In future, I will look for a company's name on-line for reviews before placing an order.

Order

I placed an order for 80 12mm magnets at Clearwater Mall on the 06/08/2017 when I bought the last four packets. I phoned them on the 15th after I received no response from their side. The lady promised that I can collect the magnets on Thursday the 17th. I phoned again the Thursday afternoon to check before collecting and the lady said she'll phone me back. After 20min she responded by saying I can get the magnets from the Cresta Mall branch. In the first place this is unexceptionable, because It is is easier for me to collect from Clearwater and they had enough time to make arrangments on their side. I went out of my way to make it in time to Cresta after work only to realize their out of stock.

This places me in a very difficult position and I'm very disappointed in the service I've received. I had to phone around for suppliers in order to make my deadline and keep my clients happy.
I will definitely not order from Crafters Market again.

I placed an order for scrapbook paper on 3/16/2014. I received part of my order in mid-April and a note that the rest would ship in 1 to 2 weeks--it didn't. I sent an email and received a reply that I would get the rest of my order in 10 days. I sent another email on 6/1 and asked them to ship my order or send a refund. My money was refunded today. HORRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE! NO COMMUNICATION SKILLS! DO NOT SHOP ON THIS SITE!

I ordered scrapbook paper and stickers from CraftersMarket. I received the 2 pkgs of paper and 2 pkgs of stickers. One pkg of stickers was supposed to ship 1-2 weeks later. It has been a month and I have still not received my last pkg of stickers. I have called the Customer Service number only to get a recording to contact them by email and have emailed them 3-4 times and have yet to hear from them again. I WILL NOT ORDER FROM THEM AGAIN. I can't stand poor customer service.

Ordered floss 4/18/11 (Monday). E-mailed Wednesday asking for ETA, since the site claims that "most" items are shipped in 2-3 days. No rseponse. E-mailed again Thursday and got a response Friday saying that some items were backordered. I asked them to send what they had, and they did not respond or ship anything. I debated on cancelling the order altogether, but felt that I would get billed anyways since I had little faith anything gets done correctly there. Got an e-mail on the 28th saying that my order shipped. It is now 5/5/11 and still nothing in the mail (Shipping first-class from VA to ME should NOT take 7+ days). I tried calling the number they have multiple times, but it rings about 4 times, then just tells you to e-mail them with any questions.

To sum it all up: HORRIBLE communication, slow shipping and the 2-3 day guarantee means nothing. It doesn't even make sense to put "most items ship in 2-3 days" since they can then use the excuse that "your order was special so the 2-3 days doesn't mean anything". If you're going to make a guarantee, then do it, otherwise don't.
