Courtney | Fan Relations did a wonderful job taking care of me with my order and followed-up afterward, to ensure everything was received properly and the quality is what is expected from these expensive items. Please reward Courtney for excellence in customer service!

“Virginia Tech Metallica T-shirts”

Alex R.
10/4/24

I ordered 2 of the VT Metallica shirts for my wife back in August. I was told 3 weeks in only one was ready and I asked them to ship it and they sent the request to do that. As of today both items are now on back order until mid October. What's the point of preordering them. Don't you know how many you can sell. You took my money and now I am without product. Shady!

The products are great. The fact that you have to pay shipping and handling these days is not. Also, for returns, the fact that they subtract shipping cost from your return is crazy. Other than that, Fanatics is a great site to shop for all sports related items.

I was inquiring about the return policy.

Reason I chose this business:

Reliable and legitimate.

I bought my son a Giants hat for Christmas to get ready for the upcoming MLB season. And then I realized my Giants hat is getting old and needed a fresh one. Fanatics had my back with the fast shipping and got my new hat 2 days after purchase. Thanks for the great service!

Reason I chose this business:

They have the best selection and prices. The shipping speed is unmatched.

I ordered a Dallas Cowboy's sweatshirt for Big and Tall. It took 2 weeks to arrive. The color quality was so poor. The sleeves were purple and no way matched the logo. Now I have to pay to return. $10. Will not order again.

Ordered two jerseys. One has defective stitching on the big number on the back. Contacted customer service and they offer to let me keep the damaged one and will send me a replacement only if I agree to pay another $25 in shipping! NEVER doing business with Fanatics again and warning everyone I can every chance I get.

Tip for consumers:
Buyer Beware! Fanatics DOES NOT stand behind their defective merch

I have ordered a Michigan cap and a Detroit Lions cap and a Michigan Wolverines sweatshirt and am very happy with the price, the quality and the delivery service. I am currently waiting on delivery of a Detroit Lions lawn banner which is scheduled to arrive in a few days. Products, once ordered are easy to track online. I would certainly highly recommend Fanatics products and services to anyone.

Reason I chose this business:

Initially, it was price and email ads that got my attention

Ordered a jersey in stock in November to be told it's not in stock and they change the delivery date 2 times so far. This makes the package past Christmas. They lie to the customer and state before Christmas but they are selling items they don't even have. The customer service guy says I can give you a 20 percent of I laughed as if I will support your business ever again! You are liars

I purchased a jacket knowing that it was too big. It was so cute, I wanted it anyway. Needless to say it came quickly, I was excited, then disappointed because it was definitely too big. However, because it is so nice, my husband wanted it. I obliged and now I'm patiently waiting for a restock. I need this jacket!

Reason I chose this business:

Throughout the time on this site I have by 3 or 4 sweat shirts. A bunch of t-shirts and have enjoyed all of them so far. Unique items that you don't see in stores which I really do like.

My brother has been a Browns fan since he was about ten years old and after one of the games he was introduced to Otto Graham and Otto was so nice to my brother that it sealed the deal of his being a Browns fan for life (even though we lived in NYS).
I knew of Fanatics and of course purchased on line... had it shipped to me... then sent up to my brother. It was a very easy transaction and the quality was excellent.

Reason I chose this business:

Fanatics has all the merchandise you can possible need.

I bought something for Xmas for my mom on Dec 5th - it is now the 17th and still not here - they charged 4.99 for shipping which is a scam because their promise date is false - will never order from them again - Erin Andrews should be ashamed for supporting these clowns

I placed an order on 12/12/23 and the shipping mentioned says 7 days. After checking my order on the 12/15, it is still held in processing status and the update shows that my item won't be delivered 12/29 which is outside of the 7 days my order is supposed to be delivered. I reached out to customer service and they were no help. They said it is too late to change the shipping method or cancel the order. I have ordered with Fanatics before with no issues but this was a horrible experience and I will not do business with this company again.

I ordered an XL hoodie from them. Upon delivery the hoodie they sent is a women's medium. I used their own size chart which is not correct. They also charge you $10 to return it. I shouldn't have to pay anything for something they falsely advertised.

Tip for consumers:
The sizing is wrong. XL is a women's medium. If it doesn't fit they charge you $10 to return it.
