I am from Australia. I have just purchased an item from them recently and this was my first purchase. I have read some negative reviews for them but I still placed my order as their price is AUD $300+ cheaper than other websites including shipping. I placed my order on 30/3 and received it on 7/4. I think it would be faster if it was not the Easter holiday. I saw there were complaints about scratches on items. But I do not have any on mine (maybe I am just lucky). FYI, I purchased from the Italian store Stefania Mode. I could not choose which store to buy from as my item was only available there. This is my fair view on Farfetch. I wish this is helpful for anyone who wants to buy from them.
I ordered from them yesterday and, despite it being confirmed that my card company had preauthorised payment, they contacted me to tell me I had to provide my card and personal details again for their security checks. They then asked my to send a Photo of my ID to prove who I was. I have never experienced thus with any company previously and, as a result, Farfetch have lost £1000s of business.
I've shopped with Farfetch many times and have not had any problems until now. I ordered the Saint Laurent Kate bag with gold hardware and their supplier (browns UK)sent me the one with silver hardware which is poor quality control. They don't even have a exchange policy in place for messing up, they said if I wanted the correct colour I had to reorder (pay for it again) and send back the incorrect bag before the refund could be initiated. I was left out of pocket $2k until the refund was complete which is ridiculous as the fault was theirs. The worst part was that they couldn't even guarantee me that the bag reordered would be the correct one. I googled the reviews for browns uk and was horrified to see that it was one bad review after another. I would be wary if I ordered another product from Farfetch that came from browns UK. Overall I wasn't happy with my experience with Farfetch this time.
First time purchase for a pair of Lanvin sneakers (size 35) from Vitkac (US$333), unfortunately I received size 36 (which only cost US$296).
Disappointingly that there is no more size 35 available from Farfetch. Farfetch refused to refund the price difference and CS explained "quotation might be various between different boutique even with the same item under different sizes as the popularity of brands are not always the same with our partner boutique."
Received the wrong size product and simply want a partial refund for the price difference to ease the trouble for sending back and loss from exchange difference from refund. Furious that why have to suffer money loss (exchange loss + shipping) even the mistake is made by farfetch's partner boutique. Besides, the shoes' insole were worn out and shoe cap with scratch when I received and check. Utterly disappointed with the quality and service from farfetch and Viktac. Wholeheartedly not recommended to anyone who want to shop here.

Hello guys, i have a serious advision that you should keep away to FarFetch website and do not try to shopping with them if you don't want to lose your money. I have purchased the item from them but i have not recieve anything on that delivery day. Then I have checked my DHL tracking number and saw the detail show that my order was shipped to another person with signed and hide on the address ( just show the city and zip code). I have contacted to Farfetch and they said they just refund the shipping fee, the item was delivered so they can not approved the refund requested and close my case. Oh my god, i can't believe it. That is the irresponsible explain to customer. Finally, i have to work with my bank to investigated this problem. I am sure Farfetch gonna lose many customers and potential customers in the future if they keep run thier business like this.
These people are absolute scumbags. I, too was confronted with an extra delivery charge ($82.40), and it has been over a month since I returned the shoes I ordered, and still have not received a refund. I have emailed customer service multiple times to no avail. Thankfully I paid through Paypal, so I am opening a dispute with them. I am going to do everything in my power to put these people out of business. Unbelievable! AVOID FARFETCH- THIS SITE IS A SCAM!
DO NOT SHOP HERE! I was traveling and received my package today upon my return to work. I ordered shoes and they are far darker than pictured. I tried to return the item and bc it's 4 days past the ridiculous 5 day return period they will not allow me to return the item. This is my first experience shopping here and I will NEVER shop here again. I'll be telling all of my friends as well. It's a real shame as you have so many hot items. It's unfortunate that your customer service is HORRENDOUS!
The shipping company (DHL) is agreed to refund me the lost but Farfetch can not issue the refund without reasons. I have all the proof and evidences. SO DANGEROUS.
It takes me 2 months until nothing is refunded.
First time using Farfetch for online purchase on Fendi trackpant and was very pleased with fast service and was surprised to receive the parcel within a week.
Thanks to the customer service who are prompt to reply my query on the above parcel.
It's a AUD3970 bag and I was astonished on how poor the package looks like when I have the delivery in hand. It looks like a purchase from an night market and made me kinda doubt the authenticity of the item, which I will bring to a BV store to check. With A purchase of this price the quality of item should assure customer not the opposite.
Answer: In my experience, as far as genuine items go, yes. My recommendation to you is, research the store you're buying from, because your experience can be 0 or 5 stars depending who you're buying from. I bought a new Valentino bag and received an used one from a store called Gente Roma. Farfetch did nothing other than contact the store and politely reply back to me that there was nothing they could do about it! They made the sale, they're making money off me, off course they should have done something. Nope. I could return the bag, which was an option regardless. Gente Roma was so disonest about the condition of the bag, I was afraid they would blame me for sending back a used bag and only give me a patial refund. I felt my safest option was to keep the bag. On the other hand, when I bought a pair of Valentino shoes from Exelsior Milano my experience was flawless. From the fast shipping, to the packaging to shoes that had never been opened. Moral to the story: if Farfetch doesn't have to get involved, you're golden. If not, don't bother with them. Call the Pope or your credit card and dispute your charges instead. You'll have a better chance of getting something.
Answer: Maybe there is a 24 hour time frame to cancel your order after you made it but if that 24 hours frame has passed I'd try calling them. Their customer service can be helpful

Answer: It's a legit website and I purchased more than 5 times with Farfetch. Everything was good, authentic and the shipment was fast as well. I'm not sure how long it takes to ship to Singapore, but for my experience, I live in the US and it takes 3-4 days to deliver.
