I ordered a display case for my mini helmet. Came in and the base was broken. I spoke with Sheilah who got a new one sent to me. A few days later the replacement arrived and was ALSO broken. Sheilah again made a quick turn around and got another one out to me. Third times a charm, it came un-damaged. It is packed so tightly that any damage to the box breaks the wooden base to the display case. It sucked I had to have 3 sent to me to get it right but the customer service was quick about it.
The first picture is what I ordered. The second is the ugly one that arrived. And this happened not once but twice. The first time I contacted them they were very apologetic and immediately sent out what was supposed to be the correct one, but I received the same ugly piece of crap. I will never order from them again. I have blocked their ads.
If I could give this less than 1 star I would. This has got to be the worst website out there. There's literally no customer service except their stupid chat bot. You can't actually get somebody on the phone and it is impossible to cancel an order. The website said my item was in stock and would ship out within two business days of me purchasing. It never shipped out so I checked every other day on that same item, and it kept saying it was going to ship out the next day and the next. Never did weeks go by, tried to find some sort of customer service to just cancel and buy somewhere else but there's no number or anything. You just have to speak to their dumb chat bot and I couldn't cancel. Very frustrating.

NHLShop.com is quite possibly the worst online shopping experience. I spent over $500 on merchandise, and still had to pay shipping. Then the pajama shorts I ordered were too small even though I ordered them a size to large for comfort. I was not even able to process an even exchange for the item, I to reorder the item + shipping and wait 7 days to get my online gift card refund. My only other option was to pay $10 to have my funds credited to my original tender. Total scam of a website. Not even sure I will claim my e-gift card once it finally shows up in my account. Avoid this merchant. Side not to Fanatics and NHLShop.com - female hockey players might have big thighs.
Tip for consumers:
Find a local store - this operation has no clue how to run a digital business.

Other than the shorts that were undersized, all other products were used. They were all just way over-priced.
Placed my order on December 5th for a personalized back pack for my Grandson for Christmas, website said it would get here before Christmas. When I checked shipping status it states the 27th, so they lied. When I called them they said I should have picked another shipping option instead of the standard 3-7 business days, they were given 20 days to fulfill the order. I got no resolution just got blah, blah, blah, from JP. Their website does not disclose this, it's false advertising, nor does it warn you that you won't get it by Christmas! I could not find a yelp page or no way to place a review on the website, now I know why!
Tip for consumers:
Don't believe their website that you will get before Christmas

Received the Jersey I ordered timely but when I opened the package there was a letter missing from my player's name. Used site's chat option to resolve the issue which got me absolutely no where. I have heard from my local embroidery shop that he gets their jerseys often with missing items and patches. I do not recommend ordering from them or Fanatics Brand in general.
Before you purchase from NHL.com, please know if you purchase from this company, although the site says free shipping and returns for purchases over 25.00, they charge 5.50 to send any items back to them.
Not good customer service at all he was rude, unsympathetic and just plain useless. When I was just trying to figure out what happened to my package that I got as a Christmas present that hasn't shown up yet.
I ordered a limited edition item last December. It was supposed to ship on 12/26/19. I forgot about it until 2/21/20 when I contacted them about it. I had received ZERO correspondence regarding that item and any type of delay. When I contacted them, they said it was shipping in 4 days, and I would get an email confirming that. No email came and guess what happened on that fourth day? Paypal notifies me of a refund. Yes they didn't even have the decency to email me with an apology and an explanation as to why they cancelled my order! When I contacted them a second time to find out why, I was told 'It seems the item oversold and they could not meet the demand'. And they didn't refund my money for 2 months! Their customer service apologized if their email offended me, but I never got an email or any other correspondence from them about this item once they received my money. Absolutely horrible customer service!
Tip for consumers:
Shop elsewhere! No communication once they get your money. Then when they cancel your order, they don't even have the decency to tell you...the notice came from Paypal!
Reebok and Fanatics brands are not worth the prices they're charging! Especially authentic Reebok hockey jerseys are idiotic how they size them. Who sizes a 60 in a pro jersey and it runs 5 inches smaller! They're ALL smaller than advertised. CCM never shorted measurements and always gave you a quality product! The Fanatics breakaway jerseys are cheap, and shoulder patches are pressed not stitched and many are falling off. As a hockey fan really disappointed in all the products offered to fans. As well that the main sales sites have NO areas for customer reviews. UGH!
For the money I paid I at least expected more professional and nicer packaging. The product came all wrinkled, like it was used and washed, stuffed in a plastic bag and then envelope. The product quality is poor. Will not order again.
Like others I wish I would have checked the reviews before ordering. Received the wrong item late. Custom jersey so automated return process doesn't work and trying to contact customer service on the website number is a joke! Mistakes can happen, but experience so far has been worse then terrible! Will not use them again and recommend caution to anyone considering.
What an awful experience.
Lies abound, pay extra for expedited delivery, get later if ever. Call center of no value. Standard BS I am sorry we normally do what we say.
No one can or will give a straight answer.
Better off to get anything from someone else.
15 days for delivery! Having read others reviews, I am not alone! Customer service is awful and the use of Lasership appears to be a nightmare. Serious disconnect in shipping and expectations. Never again!
2 items ordered. First was a discounted end of line jersey. Product delivered on time and was good. Second was custom ordered with player name. Delivery within 1 week. 2 weeks later still no product. To cancel order, now have to wait an additional 3-5 days for confirmation... the playoffs will be over by then. Unfortunate as this was my second vendor. First one "sports jerseys canada" emailed right away saying product not in stock and refunded day 1. I would check them out first as they seem way more reputable.
I will never order from them again! BS customer service! Still waiting for my order! Same run around, need name & email address, then they kept pushing the delivery date! Don't waste your money on this website, you will be sorry!
Take your money but have know thought on customer satisfaction or product delivery
Order placed November 7,2016 for Christmas gift and one December 29,2016 and still have not received my payed for purchased.
Will never shop with them again...
Worst customer service I have ever experienced. Never again will I purchase from them. Would do nothing to fix issue. Funny thing too I was not sent a confirmation of prices only that my order was received and being processed.
I order St. Louis Blues playoff shirt to only be disappointed. The material on front was stuck together. Pulled it apart and it tore. Paid 29.95 to have overnight. Now I'm out that money. Said they could send me a new one once I pay to return the defective shirt. Now I'm out an additional 6.00 plus they're sending by regular shipping which may show after the playoffs are over. Totally sickened by flop.nhl.com.
Terrible customer service. Terrible experience. Buyer beware! Before Christmas I ordered a SJ Sharks Stadium Series jersey. Six weeks later, they send an email saying the jersey is "not available" -- which was a complete lie because the jersey is still being sold at other locations. They tried to then give me the lame excuse that different manufacturers have different stock available. Utter horse crap. No wonder they have so many bad reviews on this site. The NHL should pay attention to this, because your brand is being tarnished by this horrible shopping experience.
Bought a customized youth top - went by their sizing charts - top turns up and its 2 inches short. Customer service first does not believe us and second says this is manufacturer's fault. Am waiting to see how this resolves!
After several weeks of calls and e-mails etc - manage to return the top and get full refund. Had to be very persistent.
Cristin rocks and Cristin provided excellent customer service!
I can judge that well, since I have been a customer advisor myself for decades and have also worked in different countries, such as Germany, Austria and Switzerland, as well as in the USA, on the east coast (Florida) and west coast (California).
Cristin mastered and completed this difficult matter to my best satisfaction, even though different countries with different times of the day were involved. In addition, language barriers had to be overcome. That's why I will be shopping at NHL.com again and will continue to do so!
To Cristin, please continue doing it the way you did it for me...
Tip for consumers:
Great customer service, even for foreign orders, especially customer service representative "Cristin".

I read some horrible reviews about NHL ship unfortunately after I had already purchased my product, a 2022 Calgary Flames home jersey. Luckily, the product I received was in great condition, exactly as I wanted. It did arrive about 4 days after the expected delivery date, but after reading some of the reviews I had been worried I would never get it at all, so I was pleasantly surprised. Apart from the delayed arrival, no complaints at all.

Ordered a hockey jersey for Christmas and it got lost in the mail. The customer service representative I called was kind and very helpful. She had a replacement jersey shipped out right away and I received it today.

First, a 5-star for Cristin. Second, a 3-star for NHL overall. I've spent a ton of money on Kraken gear, my biggest purchase being an autographed jersey. NHL delayed shipment four times saying it was for "COVID" reasons, this excuse went on from October to April. This jersey still to this day shows as "available and will ship in 46 business days." I finally called after the fourth delay and Debbie ensured I would receive communication from the Sports Memorabilia Department. The next day, Cristin reached out to let me know it was actually an issue with the athletes not coming together for signatures. As ridiculous as that was, she actually was able to get an upgraded autographed jersey sent the next day. She checked in periodically to ensure it was received.
I am impressed with Cristin's (and Debbie) customer service skills! The NHL shop, not so much.
