I thought that weigh on my experience of millions Drugstore.com. I bought the place for a long time still, but noticed a trend in higher prices on many items can be purchased online, or even to other similar sites drugstore.
That’s a long review, but if you never purchase on the website, I hope it will help you better understand and decide whether to give the place a chance.
What Sells page
What is not to sell? It is a pharmacy with a huge number of other categories of goods from drugs, medical supplies, sexual health products, dietary food and refreshments, and much more. The site also no prescriptions.
Navigation and other information
It is easy to find what you want on Drugstore.com. You can search by exact product you want, brand, keyword, or a combination of these. You can also click on the category links and bookmarks and drill searches like this.
It maintains a list of items you have purchased, so you can quickly change the order if you want, you can always look at your account to see past orders, if you want to find the product you bought and liked.
They have specials frequently. Gifts with purchase, a percentage of a particular brand (I am assuming that the percentage of their regular prices, which, frankly, it’s great that not all these days).
Your orders fall quarter cash back of 5%. For every dollar you spend, you get five cents in drugstore.com dollars. You will be credited the amount of quarterly, but you have to buy a small time frame for your credit to be used.
Adding products to cart, it is a simple mouse click and usually specials, such as gifts with purchase, come correct. I had several problems with promised donations does not appear in my cart, but the customer (by phone) was always able to help.
Checkout is easy. If you have stored the information you need only click a few times and you have paid. Confirmation letter will arrive soon.
The first time customers will need to register their name, address, telephone number, e-mail address and password. They may decide that their credit card information stored for faster check-out. Registered customers also receive promotional e-mails and special offers, so it is worth registering to know what is happening on the ground.
You will receive a confirmation e-mail and ship one. Are often divided consignment (where they are as big as I always are). It takes a while for your order to arrive. Sometimes it seems like an eternity, but is usually about 10-14 days. It is still quite a long time to wait for the order.
Generally, do not make many mistakes in the package and get everything you ordered. However, recently I got the wrong item, then a few things missing, and have several products, and open spots.
At all times, customer service totally took care of me but that, while the incidence was lower difficulties were removed quickly and easily.
Packaging could be better. Often, everything is thrown into a box with not much, if any, packaging material, which leads to a dented boxes and shedding o. They said I really need to do better and more thorough job of filling and packaging, because I had more problems than last year all the years I have purchased them before together.
My experience
I shopped at Drugstore.com more times than I mean to even think.
With the Rite Aid down the street from me and about 10 other drugstores in several kilometers from me, I have no idea why they keep returning to Drugstore.com. Just everything here and it’s fun to find the shops and get free gifts.
However, today I went to buy a Revlon Limited Edition cosmetics, because I tried some and worship them. I knew that I would wear Drugstore.com and I was right.
Even with a possible 5% cash back for your purchase of a 5% discount through ebates.com, the price was unreasonably high.
Normally I would not even notice because I do not often bother to buy offline, when I want something new. Just click and buy. However, I was at Wal * Mart, a few days ago, so the burn was deep. I did not buy the items I went to the site.
Not everything is more expensive than other stores. Some things are right on par with online stores and some are even cheaper. They often have great gifts with a better brand purchases (eg philosophy), which is absolutely to be a place for shopping.
I think that Drugstore.com is like any other business. You need to compare business and buy what makes financial sense. I do not mind paying a bit more for the convenience of buying from home, but I refuse to pay $ 4.00 or more above the price of a simple drugstore cosmetics.
Anyway, about my recent experiences have left, most of them were fine. I turn, I expect, I get what I ordered. Here and there will be something missing and I will call customer service and they will be available to me to be correct, no questions asked.
When he opened a bottle of shampoo and Squirted across its other purchases, which replaces the entire order even though many items were not directly affected by the spill. More recently, a package of items that could spill into shrink-wrap.
They have 100% guarantee on most color cosmetics. That means if you choose the wrong shade, you will apply to ship the product back and get the right shade. It’s a hassle to do when.
Will you make a label printing and you have to get back the item within 30 days of purchase. To add to the problem, it is necessary to check if your item came from drugstore.com or ds fulfillment inc.
There are various steps that depending on where your product comes from. Whatever! For me it is so much like work. I have a product that was bad was going to shadow and back, but sold it on eBay instead. (It was expensive items.)
In all I spoke with dozens of customer service of times and always been very friendly and willing to go farther, to me as a customer. I assume that when looking at their purchasing habits, who would not want me as a customer? I tend to spend a little bit.
Turn to Drugstore.com for everyday shopping needs and I am too lazy to go out or that I can find on the site. However, I shopped there almost as often in the past six to seven months, since many of their prices are higher than in other similar places.
Although I always Free Shipping (All orders over $ 49.00 get free shipping), it just does not make sense to buy from Drugstore.com, while wearing the same product for much less money elsewhere.
I now have my purchases carefully and avoid overpriced things.
I still shop at Drugstore.com, but not nearly as often as I did in the past, when their prices are beginning to take more of the same level as in the real world. I think Rite Aid is a stone’s throw away, and I have 50 billion-square-foot Wal * Mart two miles from me. And so many others among them. Drugstore.com is good for me. One stop shopping experience for many goods, and one I treasure is there. I have no problem to pay more for convenience, but when he gets silly, even I am out of my ass and walk through the streets to save some money.
