      I contacted Overstock about a month ago. There was an item that I wished to purchase. I signed up for the mailing list ONLY FOR THE COUPONS. So of course I enter my email address, and I get about 5 coupons a day. When I go to try to make my purchase, it says that none of these coupons can be applied.I called Overstock and talked to a ***************************** service agent. They basically repeated the same thing about 5 times. Which I'm human and I can understand the first time. They told me that the table I wished to purchase was on sale and that I cannot use a coupon for that. The coupon I was using was for sale items. So after going back and forth with this lady, I asked for a manager. Lyndsee came on the phone. I was on the phone with her for another hour. She had no idea why these coupons were not working, but tried to help. Due to all my frustration, she agreed to give me 20% now, and then an extra 10% off once the item shipped (this would be refunded back to my credit card). I had a **** gift card of $500. She told me the system would not allow to use 2 **** cards, so instead, suggested that I purchase an overstock gift card of $500 and then use my card. Fine, I said. Now we start going back and forth on email. All of a sudden I don't hear from her for about 5 days. She apologies and tells me she will call me at 2pm (this was last week). No phone call, nothing. I sent her an email, and that was one week ago. No response. So now I have a gift card for $500 to Overstock, and I STILL have not been able to put in my order because the discounts are not pulling up on my end (she said she can place the order). I did let her know that I am a member of Rabuken which provides immediate rebates. Overstock has a 5% rebate, so I asked her for an additional 5% discount = total of 35% off. Why is it taking over a week to hear from these reps and a month to place an order? This is ridiculous! If i don't hear back soon, I'm getting my money back for this gift card.

      The *********************************************************************************** regarding an item she was interested in buying.She signed up to be on the mailing list to receive only coupons.

      07/14/2022
      The ***************************** received some emailed coupons and when she tried to order with the coupons none of them would apply.

      07/15/2022
      The ***************************** called Overstock and the ***************************** service agent repeated more than one time that a coupon cannot be used to purchase an item on sale. The ***************************** advised the agent that the coupon she was trying to use was for sale items. The ***************************** asked for a manager.

      The manager advised the ***************************** that she would help her.  She would give the ***************************** a discount for the inconvenience she was experiencing.

      07/19/2022
      The ***************************** emailed the manager to ask if they could chat that day and complete this purchase.

      07/21/2022
      The manager replies and asks if the ***************************** had purchased the gift card yet because it can take up to 24 hours to see it in your email. The ***************************** had not purchased it yet.

      07/25/2022 07/27/2022
      The ***************************** emails the manager several times.

      07/27/2022
      The manager replies to the email and states she will call the ***************************** the next day in the evening and help with placing the order. The manager promises all the discounts the ***************************** has requested.

      07/28/2022
      The manager did not make the call to the *****************************.

      07/29/2022 08/02/2022

      The ***************************** emails the manager and states if she is not able to assist to please have someone else contact her.

      08/02/2022
      The manager replies to the ***************************** and through emails they are in the process of finding a time for both to be available.


      08/03/2022

      Today the manage said she can work around the ****************************** schedule today until 4:30 PM EST or tomorrow (08/04/2022) at 8:30 PM EST or 10:00 PM EST.

Otherwise, the ***************************** will be contacted on Monday 08/08/2022. By the manager to complete the order.

      The manager also explains why she thinks the coupon has not worked for the *****************************. The case shows the manager is waiting for the ***************************************************** reply to the email.

      I am rejecting this response because:

      I am not sure why it is so difficult for the manager to understand that I do not have a phone during business hours. I have asked her repeatedly to let me know when she will call so I can plan for it. The last 2 times, she told me she would call at a specific time, she never did. I then sent her a message saying so, and in response I received "my apologies, I got busy." What is the purpose of setting a time to discuss? This is just a waste of time!

      On 6/10/2022 I purchased the Donner 27-inch Fabric Counter Stool (Set of 2) by Christopher Knight Home from Overstock.com (Order Number: *********) . It was supposed to be delivered by 6/22/22, but was not. I checked the tracking number and received a message from ***** that a label was created but they had not received the product from Overstock. I contacted overstock, and was advised to wait a week and if I had not received the item then I should cancel my order and rebuy the item. After a week the item still was not shipped, so I requested and received a refund, and proceeded to reorder the item. On 7/1/22 I reordered the counter stool (Order Number *********) , and received the item on 7/8/22. On 7/15/22 I began to assemble the stools, and realized that I was sent four left legs, instead of two right legs and two left legs and I was unable to complete assembly of the chairs.On 7/15/22 I contacted customer service through chat, and they put in an order to ship me the correct parts. I was sent tracking information, and by 7/22/22 ***** told me that a label has been created but they were not given the package to be shipped. As this was the same message I received for the original stools I became concerned and contacted overstock again, and was told that this would be processed in 2-5 days. On 7/25/22 I contacted overstock again and they put in another request for the parts, and I was told I would be updated about the parts and I never was. On 7/28/22 I contacted overstock again and was told that my situation would be "escalated" but still nothing happened. On 8/1/22 I received a call that the warehouse was not going to ship my parts because it is out of stock and I would have to find packaging, disassemble the stools, and find a way to transport a large an extremely heavy box on my own to *** to return the item so I could get a refund. This is extremely unprofessional, and somehow I am being punished for something that is their mistake.

      I went on the website overstock.com. My order #*********. The table that I had in my cart was listed on sale for $551. When I went to check out through paypal, my cart was still showing as I believe $721 ( I had another item in my cart along with the table). When I was sent back to the paypal site I got a message thanking me for my order with a total of $845.04. I immediately started a chat with the agent (uploaded chat conversation below). First the agent tried to say that the difference was probably because of the tax. I said no, the tax was already included. Then the agent told me that they have no control over the sales and that the second that I went to check out that the manufacturer probably changed the sale price. I told the agent that this was really not a fair practice, it was like bait and switch and definitely false advertisement. I asked if it could be escalated, and I was told there is no escalation process for coupons. I also asked if the coupon could be changed to the 12% off coupon that they are advertising today (which would come to a little less than the difference) which would be a fair solution, and I was told that they couldn't do that either. I would like the difference refunded.

      Business Response

      Date: 07/30/2022

      To whom it may concern,

      This customer placed on order for two items on 07/29/2022. A coupon was used that saved $40 off of a purchase over $500 - this type of coupon is applied to each item proportional to its cost and applies to all items, regardless of sale or promotion. The grand total, after the $40 coupon was deducted and $53.43 in sales tax was added, was $845.04. This reflects the price that was in the Checkout screen at the time of purchase.

      One item was a four-light chandelier that was normally $157.49 before tax but was on sale for $149.62. The coupon deducted $7.20 from the sale price, and after $9.61 in sales tax was added, the total for the chandelier was $152.03.

      The other item was a five-piece dining table set in the Black option that was not on sale. The coupon deducted $32.80 from the $681.99 regular price, and after $43.82 in sales tax was added, the total for the table set was $693.01.

      It is not possible to charge a different price than what is confirmed on the Checkout screen when a customer selects "Submit Order." The Overstock Customer Care agent the customer spoke to by phone on 7/29/2022 may not have been clear to the customer that if the price had changed on the table, it would show the changed price in the Checkout screen - when the customer selected the green "Submit Order" button, only the correct $845.04 total would be shown. Overstock apologizes for any miscommunication about how the Checkout screen works.

      For example, if an item is placed into a customer's Shopping Cart showing to be $100 after tax, and continues to show as $100 while the customer is entering their shipping information on the Checkout screen, but during that time the price changes internally to $150, it would not be possible to select "Submit Order" showing a $100 charge and be charged $150. If the Checkout screen still shows $100, the system will not allow that order to go through unless it can honor that displayed $100 price.

      There are a few explanations as to what could have happened, but without a screenshot or email confirmation we can only speculate as to why the customer was expecting a different price. The most likely scenario was the customer had a "percent-off" coupon that was swapped with the "dollar amount off" coupon. These coupons function slightly differently as to how they are calculated, and in this instance a "percent-off" coupon may have been a better savings for this order. If the customer selected the "dollar amount off" coupon in error, or tried to use both coupons together (i.e. stacking), then only the last coupon selected would be active on this order.

      Another possibility is the customer may have been looking at a different color option for this table set that was no longer available. This table set came in a Black and a White option, with the White option showing to be significantly less than the Black option. However, the White option is out of stock - if the White option went out of stock prior to purchase, and the customer went back to purchase the White option but selected the Black option instead, they may not have noticed the different color and price until after their submission. 

      A third possibility would involve a third-party coupon error, where a coupon is offered by a different website for Overstock products. These kinds of websites will usually require the customer to complete their purchase using that third-party website, where they place the order on behalf of the customer. Completing the purchase with Overstock directly instead of through that website may have bypassed the expected coupon savings.

      In summary, if the customer has any screenshots or email confirmations that can show what price the customer was expecting, we can better determine the cause of the price discrepancy. Otherwise, the purchase price is correct based on the coupons used and option selected. It is not possible to submit an order for a price that is different than was confirmed in the Checkout Screen, and the table set has been confirmed as not having any regular price increases during this timeframe.

      Sincerely,
      Overstock.com

      Purchased a twin over full bunk bed from Overstock. Their website clearly states that this item will ship in one box. From Overstock Website (https://www.overstock.com/Home-Garden/Max-Lily-Farmhouse-Twin-over-Full-Bunk-Bed/34818451/product.html) it states "Ships in one box with instructions and hardware included. 2+ adults make assembly quick and easy. ". The item arrived in two boxes. From the manufacturer's website (https://maxandlily.com/products/modern-farmhouse-twin-over-full-bunk-bed?variant=39864955797615) it clearly states "Bed ships in two boxes and is heavy due to solid wood construction. Mattress and bedding not included"The two statements could not be more different. Overstock claims it ships in one box and easy assembly. Manufacturer indicates that it ships in two boxes and is heavy. I contacted Overstock about this several times, but their ***************************** service is so horrible that all they would do is disconnect from the chat when I proved that their website was falsely listing the details on this item. When you call the ***************************** service line, they are not English Speakers and are very unhelpful and unintelligible about the issues. I would like to hear back from them on why they are advertising this item falsely and why their ***************************** service is so poor.

Item was purchased at normal price, we are unable to change the price when it drops due to a sale. The ***************************** called in again and get a different Overstock agent, the ***************************** requested for a coupon adjustment at this time. Previously had a 15% off coupon for the order, the agent refunded another 5% to the ****************************************************** the 20% coupon they wanted to use instead.


      On 7/26/2022 the ***************************** reached out by chat wanting to be refunded for the money spent with the carrier to hold the packages for delivery on a later date and that the item shipped in 2 boxes not one. Our agent confirmed with the ***************************** that we would contact the warehouse about the information being incorrect for the item and how it shipped and that we would look into the reimbursement for to hold the packages. An email was sent over to have the product information corrected for the details on Overstock website for the item. Overstock confirmed with our warehouse on 7/27/2022 that they would be updating the information. 


      The ************************************************************ again by chat on 7/28/2022 to confirm the status about the reimbursement and the product details being incorrect. Our Overstock agent informed the ***************************** we wouldnt be able to issue a discount for the item shipping in 2 boxes and confirmed there might be reasons why it now ships in 2 boxes. The agent then ended the chat due to no immediate response. The ***************************** chatted in again and requested for a manager because of how the issue has been treated. The chat ended due to no immediate response again. The ***************************** chatted in again, our Overstock agent confirmed with the ***************************** the issue and confirmed that we would not be able to reimburse them for the costs to hold both boxes. 


      Overstock has reviewed the ****************************** request for reimbursement of the costs of holding the packages. Overstock aims to ship items as quickly as possible, as do our delivery partners. The ******************************************************************************** have the carrier hold the items independent of his order with Overstock and therefore no reimbursement is due. 


      Sincerely,

      I am rejecting this response because:

      The issue is not about holding shipments or anything of this nature.  The issue is Overstock has incorrect information on their website in regards to how this item ships. I contacted the manufacturer about this issue and they confirmed that this item ships in two boxes, yet Overstock indicates that this ships in one box.  This discrepancy has had a negative impact on my ability to move and construct the product that was shipped.  That is aside from the fact that I have had to incur extra shipping costs for having my package delivery date changed for two boxes (shipments) compared to the one box (shipment) that was indicated on their website when I purchased the item.

      The excuse for disconnected being because of inactivity is completely false, as indicated in the chats (pasted below) that shows that the Overstock Rep simply disconnected because she knew Overstock was wrong and the had no further explanation for their error.  There was no inactivity other than the inactivity by Overstock.  Please see below.

      You (7/28/2022 10:19:07 AM): Do you see that in the details section?

      ****** (7/28/2022 10:20:32 AM): I understand that Brandon, I already check the tracking of the item and it shows there that there have 2 shipments for your order. This is the tracking  for your reference, https://wwwapps.ups.com/WebTracking/track?track=yes&trackNums=1Z849VE70366847691&requester=ST/trackdetails

      You (7/28/2022 10:20:47 AM): Yes I know.  I have received the items at this point

      You (7/28/2022 10:21:01 AM): Do you see in the details area of this item, where it says it will ship in one box?

      ****** (7/28/2022 10:22:57 AM): I see, I already check that Brandon and there is no showing there that will ship in one box.

      You (7/28/2022 10:23:31 AM): You don't see this in the details of this item?

      You (7/28/2022 10:23:33 AM): "Solid *********** pine wood construction, solid plywood slats and metal support bar provide strong, durable support. Works with standard twin and full-size mattresses and does not require box springs or bunkie boards. Super safe design meets or exceeds F

      You (7/28/2022 10:26:57 AM): but it actually ships in two boxes

      You (7/28/2022 10:27:37 AM): this is much harder for a single person to move and assemble

      You (7/28/2022 10:28:04 AM): also the delivery date needed to be changed on the shipment, which cost more money considering that it is two shipments

      You (7/28/2022 10:28:15 AM): instead of one as advertised on your website

      You (7/28/2022 10:29:11 AM): you can see my problem with this discrepancy?

      You (7/28/2022 10:29:44 AM): why does your website provide information that is incorrect and false

      You (7/28/2022 10:31:32 AM): I am glad to be working with a ***************************** service agent that actually understands the problem and can assist in correcting the issue

      You (7/28/2022 10:31:44 AM): the last rep was very quick to disconnect and not be helpful

      ****** (7/28/2022 10:32:47 AM): You are very much welcome. I really appreciate that Brandon.

      You (7/28/2022 10:33:36 AM): So what can Overstock offer to make this situation right?

      You (7/28/2022 10:38:15 AM): Hello?

      ****** (7/28/2022 10:38:37 AM): I completely understand that you wanted compensation for this moment. Just want you to know that sometimes the carrier does have their own limits for the package that's why they shipped the item in multiple boxes, as long as you received the item complete, I think that I completely fine for the *****************************.

      You (7/28/2022 10:39:30 AM): Well here is the thing about that line of thought

      You (7/28/2022 10:39:45 AM): I contacted the manufacturer of this item before I contacted Overstock

      You (7/28/2022 10:39:58 AM): they confirmed that this item actually ships in two boxes

      You (7/28/2022 10:40:11 AM): but Overstock simply has incorrect information on their website

      You (7/28/2022 10:40:43 AM): If you go to *** and Lily.com (the producers of this bed) you can see in their description that this actually ships in two boxes

      ****** (7/28/2022 10:41:22 AM): I completely understand that Brandon. I really apologized again for the inconvinience.

      You (7/28/2022 10:41:29 AM): "Bed ships in two boxes and is heavy due to solid wood construction. Mattress and bedding not included"

      You (7/28/2022 10:41:37 AM): https://maxandlily.com/products/modern-farmhouse-twin-over-full-bunk-bed?variant=39864955797615

      You (7/28/2022 10:42:14 AM): So you can see the description from the manufacturer states that it is two boxes and that they are very heavy

      You (7/28/2022 10:42:34 AM): while Overstock shows that it is one box and very easy to assemble

      You (7/28/2022 10:42:50 AM): Which are basically completely opposite descriptions

      You (7/28/2022 10:43:00 AM): Which is again where my problem comes in

      ****** (7/28/2022 10:45:47 AM): I really apologized for that Brandon.

      You (7/28/2022 10:46:55 AM): thank you for your understanding and that this is NOT an issue of carrier limits, but instead an issue that Overstock simply has incorrect information on their website

      You (7/28/2022 10:47:11 AM): So now, what can be offered to correct this situation?

      ****** (7/28/2022 10:48:17 AM): I understand that Brandon. It just so happen taht we cannot process you anything since you received the item in a good condition and the only thing is it shipped in multiple boxes.

      You (7/28/2022 10:49:04 AM): yes but the information on your website is incorrect

      You (7/28/2022 10:49:27 AM): I spoke with a rep yesterday that offered $20, but we were disconnected before he processed

      You (7/28/2022 10:49:34 AM): I would like to have that added to my account today please

      ****** (7/28/2022 10:51:42 AM): I understand that Brandon. It just so happen that there no cases showing here in my end for the $20 compensaton.

      You (7/28/2022 10:51:52 AM): From yesterday>

      You (7/28/2022 10:51:53 AM): ?

      You (7/28/2022 10:52:12 AM): What conversation did you review?

      You (7/28/2022 10:55:56 AM): Hello?

      You (7/28/2022 10:56:10 AM): I spoke with a rep yesterday and this was the agreement requested.

      You (7/28/2022 10:56:38 AM): Didn't speak but "chatted"

      I am rejecting this response because:

       

      Why would I accept this response when it is clear that Overstock is at fault for this false information being advertised on their site?  They have admitted that their site was incorrect at the time of purchase and are now denying my claim for reimbursement for shipping charges that are directly related to their mistake.  This company could learn a lot about customer service from reputable online retailers like Amazon and the like. I would never shop at this third rate company again. Especially considering how they take no responsibility when they are clearly at fault.

      Purchased a loveseat from overstock.com on 6/20/2022. I was notified that the loveseat arrived in columbus ohio 7/12/2022 and that they would be contacting me in 1-2 business days. I did not hear from them so I contacted ESTES (which was their freight company) to find out when they would be contacting me. They responded that they couldn't find the item and then i got another email saying they found the item and were working on delivery. This occurred 7/15/2022. I did not hear from anyone so on 7/25/2022 I went to overstock chat and asked for a cancellation of the order. They said they had to escalate it to the Oversized department and could not give me a status or cancel the order but the Oversize department would contact me in 3 business days. I have not been contacted by that department. so I went to the overstock chat again today (7/28/2022) and they say that they cannot tell me a status because the other department handles all oversize orders but they would contact that department again. I would like order cancelled I don't believe they will ever deliver the item or have lost it.. order number is *********.

      I placed an order on July 6, 2022 for furniture that was scheduled to be delivered on July 18, 2022. I never received the product and received an email regarding a delay until August 5, 2022. I reached out ro overstock and the first rep was unprofessional so I asked to speak with a manager. A manager named Kim took over the call and stated that she will reach out to the shipping company regarding my order and call me back within the hour. I called in at 12pm eastern time and as of 7pm that evening, I did not receive a call back. I called back to overstock to have the order canceled. I spoke with Jeannie that gave me a claim number of ******** and I was told the request to cancel my order and refund all of my money was being escalated. Jeannie stated I would have my refund in 3 days. Jeannie stated the order was escalated due to so many people canceling big orders due to shipping issues. I called back to overstock today due to my refund not received and no updates on the order. I was given a number to call the shipping company and was on hold for 50 minutes before hanging up and calling back to overstock. I spoke with a male and was given another claim number of ******** and was told again it was being canceled. I am getting the run around with canceling this order and receiving my money back so I may purchase from a more reliable company.

      Purchased $8000 worth of outdoor furniture. First shipment was a partial delivery (without notice) and took about 4 calls and 4 weeks to explain to multiple agents that the order was not complete and for them to do something about it. Second order came damaged and still incomplete. It has taken another 3 calls and 3 weeks and no one has provided a resolution. Last call I made I told them to cancel the replacement for what came broken and what is missing a refund me the difference. The company offered me $300!!! This price does not even cover one single piece of furniture nonetheless two. Very disappointed this company took all my hard earned money and has taken an immense time in doing anything to resolve this

      To Whom It May Concern 

      This customer placed an order on 5/29/2022 that included two sets of outdoor furniture. One was a 9-piece dining set that comes with 6 armless dining chairs and two dining chairs with arms. The other was an 8-piece patio set that includes a 3-piece sectional sofa, 2 club chairs, 2 ottomans, and 1 storage coffee table.

      The items ship via freight. The two items were delivered together as they came from the same supplier. This shipment included 12 boxes: 5 for the dining set and 7 for the patio set. 

      Oversized items are delivered without a signature requirement unless there is an upgraded delivery option available or the supplying partner requires one. These sets did not have an upgrade selected and were scheduled to be delivered without a signature at the carrier's earliest opportunity. 

      Tracking estimates may specify a date for these items but that date is only an estimate. Freight can take 1-4 weeks to arrive once it has shipped from the source facility. More information Overstock's Oversized Item Delivery and Return Policies can be found at the following links:

      https://overstock.force.com/help/s/article/Oversized-Item-Delivery-Policy
      https://help.overstock.com/help/s/article/Oversized-Item-Return-Policy

      On 6/13, the customer contacted Overstock to report their shipment was incomplete - their text message conversation went inactive. The customer followed with a phone call to Overstock Customer Care. They stated they received only a portion of both sets: the customer received 2 of 6 armless chairs for the dining table set, and 2 chairs for the furniture set.

      This should have been escalated to our Oversized Tracking and Delivery team.    Specialized agents would have contacted the carrier to determine why only some of the 12 expected boxes were delivered.  A dock search would have been requested if the carrier did not show they had the missing freight.   The agent who spoke with the customer made an error when escalating the issue and this did not happen. 

      On 6/20, the customer called Overstock to follow up.  The agent escalated this to our Oversized team.  There is a 3-4 business day timeframe to reach back out to the customer. The customer called back on  6/23,. It was confirmed that Overstock had requested a dock search for the remainder of this customer's order.

      The local terminal schedule a delivery for what freight was found. This was arranged for 7/5. On 7/6, a request to replace a damaged Curve Seat and Cup Holder was submitted to our supplying partner. This request has been delayed due to the supplier requesting additional pictures. 

      The customer has confirmed they have their complete order except for one Curve Seat and a Cup Holder, both of which were damaged. The customer has requested a partial refund to keep the set as-is - Overstock has offered a partial refund of $300, but the customer did not approve that amount. Overstock is working with the customer.

      Sincerely,

      Complaint: ********



      I am rejecting this response because:

       

      Multiple pictures of the damaged items were originally shared with Overstock the same day the complaint was made and there has been no one who has reached out to ask for additional pictures, how is the attempt documented?. Furthermore, No attempt of communication has been made by Overstock to further resolution of the issue after rejection of the $300



      Sincerely,

      ******** *****

      To Whom It May Concern

      The customer rejected the compensation offered
      7/23/2022, requesting a better offer or a return for a refund.
      7/27/2022 – Overstock initiated a return for
      the set calling the customer, leaving a voicemail, and sending an email
      confirming the return has been initiated and once the return documentation populated,
      the return information/instructions would be provided to the customer.

      Sincerely
      Overstock

      I purchased a couch from Overstock on March 11, 2018. The couch was damaged when received and I returned the couch with their shipment company. They never processed the return and I am now getting letters from a collection agency. The couch never even made it into my house, it was immediately sent back to Overstock.
