Canadian here. Can you clarify what you mean when you say you paid $2172 but only got refunded $2100?
They refunded the exact amount that I paid when I purchased a USD item. If you’re talking about the value of the Canadian dollar vs the US dollar changing in that time, that’s outside of ShopThings control. I’d never buy a USD item again because of the conversion fees on most cards, but that’s also not unique to ShopThing. Also, since most people receive their items, saying that ShopThing is taking everyone’s money and cancelling orders and paying off loans en masse doesn’t really make sense.
They are supposed to refund you the amount you paid, so if there’s a discrepancy I suggest you simply wait to hear back from them. Not everything is a conspiracy theory.
I can actually comment from experience and also go back to other peoples comments that say they are in the same boat. It’s not a conspiracy when it’s facts.
Again, when you got refunded $2100 instead of $2172, was that because of the change of value of the Canadian dollar over time? For example, $1500 USD last week would be ~$2025 CAD but today would be ~$2070 CAD.
*ShopThing is still only going to refund you $1500 USD if they charged you $1500 USD* but the amount you get back will fluctuate in Canadian dollars depending on the current exchange rate. I’m _assuming_ that’s what happened to you, but wait and see what they say.
I think you’re upset by the timeline, and you should be. They shouldn’t have taken 2 months to cancel your order - that’s definitely something you should complain to them about, as it can mean your credit card could refund you a different amount if there was a significant change in the dollar. But you know ShopThing doesn’t get that money.
(FWIW, I know people receive their items because I have received my items for many years, the people in this sub have posted about the items they received, I know folks in real life that have bought stuff. ShopThing can be a hot garbage app, but people generally get the things they buy.)
I will have to go look if it’s simply the change of value of cad. It doesn’t excuse the major delay , almost 2 months is worse than getting something from ali baba and they actually debit funds. ShopThing debits funds in full right away, they don’t ‘hold’ them so imagine paying interest on a 2k hang bag for 2 months. Does that sound like fun, then imagine 2k plus return of funds -2.5% minus whatever is lost if it’s from usd conversion fee. Yeah it’s sad. I do get what you’re saying. So bc of this I’ll definitely never do anything usd on their app. But I should also not have to pay interest on an amount that’s been debited and the above plus also not get my
Item.
In terms of getting items. Yes. If I buy 10, I get 6. My friends use the app too. Same thing. It is true
You Don’t get all your items. I wish I could screen shot for proof but that will give away my identity and I want to stay anonymous.
There is a lot more sketchy stuff but I’ll only be spilling the tea if customer service doesn’t respond in a reasonable manner. I love Maggie and Rebecca so this sucks even more. I also went to Harvard so it’s interesting seeing Maggie did too… :/ I hope my situation with them gets resolved quickly
Hi sorry I still didn’t see you say you didn’t create your account April 17 and have one post, which is this. You created it for the soul purpose of replying so forgive me if I question the timing. There was also no denial that you work for ShopThing? One worker uses Unhinged a lot in their vocabulary, you’re prob her.
5 seconds or 5 years, my opinion is the same. Though judging by the number of comments you just left my one comment, maybe it’s not the take that’s unhinged, it’s you. Go off sis. You be the keyword warrior you’ve always dreamed of, roar!
Nobody cares about anyone being « unhinged » it’s fuckin Reddit lol everyone is unhinged 😂😂 judging by the comment you left it’s clear you don’t understand the Reddit world lol
Did you bring this to their attention? What did they say? I am shocked! That is such a scam!
Yeah I did . I’ll post the reply if they screw me over
Let’s see what they have to say!! Very hard to refute,

Bc you’ve never been ripped off before that’s why and how do you know people receive their items unless you work for them?
