* Was the quality appropriate for the price, in your opinion? While my 'expectations' were very low because omgrandomfreewig, and I was all-around grateful to the retailer for holding such a super-cool promotion, what I received was a ridiculous ball of spiderweb-esque fuzz that absolutely reeked of mildew, left a grimy-feeling residue on one's hands, and had wefts that were falling off the cap. Maybe it was just a fluke, but while I wasn't expecting much, I honestly wasn't expecting to receive a wig that was in such terrible shape. **Also, editing to add now that others have brought their experience to light and I have been given reason to believe that I wasn't just being a nitpicky jerk with my initial suspicions, but I believe the wig I received was a "Monique Mallory" with most of the fiber in the back cut in half, and brushed out. Which literally resulted in the wig becoming a dilapidated ball of crimped spiderweb fluff. I am echoing others in saying that what I received was likely an extremely used and abused wig.
* Did the item look like the sales pictures? N/A
* Were you satisfied with the product? It was completely unsalvageable, and my mother demanded I throw it out. So not really. 8V;
* If you weren't satisfied, how did the company solve your problem? As stated above, the wig is no longer in my possession, lol. And I'm not going to bawww at them about something they gave me for free.
* Would you order from this company again? Free as it was, the item's condition and mildew smell entirely turned me off to buying from this company in the future.
* Would you buy this company's products second-hand? In tl;dr, probably yes, as buying second-hand usually means that the item's condition will be generously disclosed by the seller.

 

* What did you order? free wig with coupon.
* When did you order? End of Feb
* How was the communication? Fast response
* How easy was it to pay? Invoice through paypal
* How long did it take to ship? Package was sent out 7 days from when I paid the invoice.
* Was the quality appropriate for the price, in your opinion? The wig quality was horrible. I know this was a free wig event and I wasn't expecting the greatest but... the wig I received didn't come in a usable state. It came in a ziplock bag labeled "$15" and smelled kinda funky... but when I took it out it was just a giant ball of tangled mess!! Did they send me a used wig? You could see through the wefting on the wigcap, the fibers were coarse and kinked, and it was extremely, EXTREMELY tangled.
* Did the item look like the sales pictures? n/a
* Were you satisfied with the product? Unfortunately no. I'm sure others got great wigs, and others not so great. However, I really wasn't expecting a wig this horrible. It looks like the wig was supposed to be a wavy style but it was just a giant ball of tangle, I think the wig had to have been used. There were huge knots I had to actually cut out, but I still haven't been able to untangle the wig. I do not think this wig was worth the cost of shipping.
* If you weren't satisfied, how did the company solve your problem? n/a
* Would you order from this company again? No. Even though the wig only cost $2.00 in shipping... I think they lose a lot of integrity to advertise that you would be getting a wig "up to $30 value" when in fact you're just getting an extremely used, smelly, tangled wig.
* Would you buy this company's products second-hand? n/a

 

What did you order? a free wig with the coupon promotion
* When did you order? end of feburary
* How was the communication? very quick
* How easy was it to pay? i was invoiced via paypal
* How long did it take to ship? one week
* Was the quality appropriate for the price, in your opinion? I wasn't expecting anything extremely amazing, but I'm disappointed in what I received. It was a long wig with some wave/loop to it, but it was all tangled, and the top fibers were reaaallly crunched up and almost like they had been burned from heat exposure? The entire top was very nasty fibers. I believe this was a pre-owned/used wig, since there was velcro glued inside the wig (some people do this to keep wigs on their dolls), but no other velcro? It also had a strange, old musky smell to it.
* Did the item look like the sales pictures? n/a
* Were you satisfied with the product? not really. I know the wig was free, but I was expecting something new since it was from a company. I was able to get it somewhat managable by trimming the ends and using some wig wax, but this wig is really not of selling quality at all.
* If you weren't satisfied, how did the company solve your problem? Since it was free theres nothing to do about it.
* Would you order from this company again? unfortunately, no.
* Would you buy this company's products second-hand? possibly, since users provide images and quality checks.

* What did you order? A Doll Family Lyre
* When did you order? April 5th, 2010
* How was the communication? Bad. =_= She did get back to me about paying everything up front but when I reached a 2 1/2 month wait and inquired after my doll I literally got a one sentence reply. When she sent the shipping notice, it was basically unlabeled except that in one place it said "Lyre" she sent no email other than that saying it shipped.
* How easy was it to pay? No real trouble, had to wait for the go ahead to pay it all up front but that's understandable.

* Would you buy this company's products second-hand? n/a
