Product I received had missing parts. We tried to buy some from hardware but two major crossbars are missing. Now they say we don't have the parts, take the whole thing apart, find a box and pay the postage to send it back to us. If it is this bad, and you can't fix it then send a new one. You get various coupons, many which are expired. How is it fair to charge different people different amounts for the same product. My other purchase which was a vacuum was of poor quality and seemed used. What does Overstock mean anyway. I think it means over the hill, over priced, over hyped but definitely not over any expectations. Extremely disappointed and will never use this website or company for purchases. I will let my consumer friends know why I have been so frustrated and outraged by the service that seems nice but accomplishes absolutely nothing. How embarrassing.
Ordered a watch for wife birthday, later found out it was "Return" item due to packaging not original as well as a complaint note inside the manual.
Guess they only check the watch but never flip thru manual.
If you need something like computer parts they have it usually! We have used them to purchase parts for computers before and other stuff too! Their prices are reasonable and they ship!

I shop here on Overstock frequently because they offer good products/value and the customer service is great. If you have to return something they make it pretty painless to do so. Great place to find area rugs. My only complaint is that sometimes it is hard to find what I am looking for because of the sheer amount of products the carry and the search function of the website seems a little wonky sometimes.
I purchased a couple of chairs because they were advertised as real leather. After minimal use the leather began flaking off the chairs, as you often hear happening with bonded leather. I believe the chairs were not accurately advertised. I contacted the company but they will do nothing because it is past the 30 day return policy. Unfortunately the inferior quality of the product is not apparent immediately upon receipt. Based on their disinterest in resolving the situation, it appears to me that the advertisement may have been deliberately deceptive.
Got a couch for 650$, expecting to get something of quality for that price. Couch shows up, and it looks like awful. Fabric feels like the same fabric used for a cheap suit, the legs are mad of cheap metal that was already bending from me screwing them in, and the only way was screw in the arms was to cut into the fabric under the couch, cause the flat out covered them up. I genuinely feel like i could have gotten something better for 200$ at any retail store. Add in the fact that the shipping to return it is over 200$, and you just have a perfect recipe to burn your money away.
Tip for consumers:
Don't.

I purchased a side board with a price of $349.00. With their magic coupons I paid $314.99. After 5 days and delivery of a 140 lbs item the coupon price changed to $262.49. That's a $50.00 difference. When you complain they first blame it on 3rd party seller and after a week of calls and texts tell me they can't adjust price. You have to keep repeating your problem to some AI live robot and they just respond the same each time I will never purchase from them again. Amazon always handles any issues.
Five pair of earrings... all from different addresses. Florida, Pennsylvania, etc. with home addresses. One from a city I myself lived in. Address had an apartment number. Was told when I had to return the earrings that they 'all came from different warehouses'. NOT SO. Individual people use Overstock to sell their flea market or were buy outs through Overstock. Was also told that all returned items were not sold again. Also not true. One pair of the earrings came with one in a small plastic bag the other was just laying in the box the not closed (lever back). They are selling back refused or used earrings. And what else?
I have shopped with Overstock.com several times and they are always prompt with delivery which is great! The occasional knock off item that is not up to par in quality with the real thng isn't their fault :) so one (read, I) should know better, but the deals can definitely be found here; just got a 100% wool suit for $65 that would have easily cost $250 + at a suit store (one of those "warehouse" type places, hint hint) and it looks, feels, exactly like my other 250 + dollar suits; still needs to be tailored but nominal fee there. I will continue to shop with Overstock and hopefully get more "hits" than "misses"!
I purchased a refurbished laptop from Overstock.com. The product key code was not provided when shipped. Contacted seller, they referred me to vendor. Vendor did not respond. After several days requested and received an RMA. Shipped it back, have proof of delivery and still not refund. Their people seem cordial, but it's all words. I am absolutely amazed at how poorly this transaction has gone and they remain silent. Filed a dispute with credit card company; it was my only option. Bad PR for a retail company.
The incorrect order sent 3 times, and customer service says there is no way to escalate a complaint. I keep sending it back, they keep resending the wrong thing. Absolutely maddening. I'd pay twice the price somewhere else.
I bought 14 dining room chairs.
Expensive even at the low prices when you buy 14.
They look nice, but they are not wood as advertised, and after two years and numerous fixes because they deteriorate ( have to have the underframe rebuilt each time), they are now no good. They cannot be rebuilt anymore as the wood(?) is crumbling and a screw won't hold.
When i called i was told i should have bought insurance. Never heard of a store saying that when their product falls apart. Maybe overstock makes all their money on insurance.
Then i decided to write the president of the company.
Okay, so maybe i didn't expect 14 new chairs, but i expected a courteous answer at least.
Nope. Computer generated pablum.
Most of the review sits rate them low. One rates them very high, which is so out of whack that i wonder what planet the reviewers came from...
Worst company ever when it comes to shipping. They lie about shipping times in hopes you'll order and then just roll with it when they 'cant' deliver on time. I will NEVER purchase from this company again. I ordered an item for Christmas back on Nov 23 and was told it would arrive in 10 days. When it wasnt delivered I contacted Overstock... I was told it wont arrive in time for Christmas. Their website at this very moment states the item will arrive by Dec 23 if ordered today, the 13th. If you are counting on something arriving when they say it will, don't order from this company. This is the second time this has happened. Never again. I learned my lesson. Now I don't have the gift I was planning for my son for Christmas.
Tip for consumers:
Dont plan on having your items arrive in the time frame they say they will.
I've ordered over the past 2 years with Overstok, you would think that I had learnt my lesson, apparently not.
Their products are at times worse than the Dollar Store; an example, a pair of black "suede" look boots, after less than a month they are falling apart. I paid over €45 approximately $65-70 for these boots with taxes etc. I could have bought a very good pair of leather boots for this cost.
They also give you the option to pay all duties etc with them, it's triple the normal cost. I returned items as they sent the wrong size, and some items were just junk quality. I had to argue for the full refund, AND then still pay the duties.
I will shop locally, even if at times it appears I pay more, I've realised you get what you pay for!
Complete JUNK products! Stay away!
I ordered 2 items from Overstock on July 12th, they were the same item, just 2 different sizes. One took 12 days, and the other took 20 days. They were shipped within 1 day of each other. The online colors were not close enough to what I received so I decided to return them both. They wanted to charge me for the UPS return. In today's world their customer service and "free delivery" policy needs to be dramatically revamped. I used to purchase $1,000-$2,000 per year from them a few years ago. Now, Amazon Prime is my go to source for 80% of my online purchases. With other sources offering 1-3 day delivery and free returns, Overstock is no longer a competitor in the Online shopping market.
I have bought alot from overstock, returns have been easy, but always check internet for pricing, they do not always have the cheapest price, but they are reputable, don't have to worry about being ripped off like a site not as well known, shipping is cheap. A rug I bought which didn't match color in picture, was returned with no problems. Customer service always ready to assist. Great site. They also have a world site where you can buy hand made goods from All over the world giving people a chance to make money who really need it.
I buy lots of stuff on Overstock.com. I have only had one problem with an item not being a true color. Easily was returned and credited. In the online world of shopping, customer service can make or break a company. Kuddos to Overstock.com for having a good team working for them.
I am a comparative shopper and I often check several sites simultaneously for the best deal before purchasing online. Overstock wins so often on price for the exact items I want that I joined their affinity program to get their rewards.
I find that their search function and item descriptions work better than some of their primary competitors. Overstock seems to the fact that it is important to have precisely consistent item descriptions, so that users can search successfully.
CustomerboughtI have been shopping at overstock for the better part of 5-6 years. My first purchase was a metal bed really cute for my daughter. I didn't have much money and she was growing out of her toddler bed. I crossed my fingers and prayed to God I just didn't screw up, but it was amazing. Over the next cpl years I have bought a captains chairs, a brand new mattress set for my mother in-law, curtains, dishes, towels, ect and never once have they lost my package, or even come damaged. I will continue to use this site for as long as they stand behind their products, an have a great customer service
We recently purchased an Area Rug from Overstock. I have purchased a lot of rugs in my lifetime and this is the first time I've had any trouble. Everyone knows what a "Shipping Tube" is. It's a hard cardboard tube cut to the same length as the rug and is used to roll the rug around to be shipped. 'Simple' right? Apparently not! Our rug was folded like a Business Letter for the first 2 or 3 feet of the roll. After that the rug was rolled up very tightly so as to preserve the "Letter Folds" I assume. It now lays on our floor with an abundant amount of 'Creases' which
Will take forever to disappear if they ever do. I'm wondering why the rugs in the product listings do not have all the fold creases in them. I assume it's because they weren't packaged by the same level of "Morons" mine was. Do they care? You're kidding - Right!
I've purchased a few items from Overstock, and I was usually satisfied, despite the downside of buying things that are not assembled.
First, be aware that you a not buying furniture or decor items, you are buying a DIY kit. Even a lamp must be put together (run the wires through it yourself).
Most recently, I ordered a bench that arrived as a pile of confusing pieces. Instead of step by step instructions, I got a single page sketch of all the parts. I'm not an engineer, so I need some actual help. I found the manufacturer's website & emailed their customer support, but never got a response. Since it was obvious I couldn't possibly use an unbuildable bench, I returned it. Overstock charged me $59 to return a $116 item.
What a rip-off!
From now on, it's Amazon and Wayfair for me.
Tip for consumers:
Read the return policy very carefully. Search for similar items on Amazon.

Purchased a knock off of a mid century modern sofa, it was ok! Just too small.
Call up told and told them it far small then needed.
No problem on return! Possibly a mostest amount was expected.ok
Come to find out, sofa $958 total!
To send it back $303! This because it's a personal situation!? Not a defect or damage so my Wal-Mart card is refunded $651. I am still on hook for 303 on card!?
Not a fan of over stock won't buy from them again.
I thought I was saving about $80, but it turns out the items were $200 Overpriced on Overstock. They list Walker Edison products under the name Middlebrook Designs at a premium price and they only price match major retailers. Be careful when using this site, as they are most likely rebranding items, raising the cost, and then assigning a fake discount to the item. They also have a 30 min cancellation policy, otherwise they send the item to you and say it was already processed. Then they charge you to ship it back, unless you're Club O. Oh well…
This is one of my favorite places to shop online. I received a damaged item once and they replaced it very quickly without any stress or problems. They offer good quality merchandise and it arrives very quickly. I highly recommend them.
Received a painting that was clearly NOT the same as the one I ordered. Immediately set the wheels in motion for a return, hoping they would offer to exchange it for the artwork shown on my order form. NOPE! And then they refused to issue a full refund, subtracting the return shipping amount (and it was a large picture). So now I'm out that money and don't have the painting I wanted. Thieves.
I have enjoyed ordering from this website for many years! While some of the items I've purchased had less than average quality, such as the Kitchen faucet I purchased a few years back. The cartridges had to be replaced so much, that I finally just went to Home Depot and purchased a different faucet! However, I give this website and their products a 90% customer satisfaction rating!
Tip for consumers:
