Is buying clothing from online only stores a good idea?

I visit a website called AmiClubWear.com and I LOVE the shoes and dresses and pants and shirts and pretty much everything but I am always hesitant to purchase even though they have a return policy. does anybody think it's okay to buy from them or should I just save my money?

I say go for it(especially when there is a good return policy) but do a mix of online and in-store shopping.A good deal is at least 30% off for both online and in stores.For clothing stores,go to the back of the store first as this is where the best deals and "treasure"(price wise and often otherwise too)You can also ask an employee if they keep clients,if they do,and you go to the store fairly often,you can become a client and they'll call or email you when there will be sales,etc.

I usually only buy from stores online that I know my size at and I know it's worth it. I love deals online but often in stores some items are marked down more so keep a heads up for that. I'm not sure what amiclubwear's specifics are but maybe stick with stores online that have free shipping returns or some stores (like urban outfitters) have in store returns too which saves on shipping!

It always worked well for me. I don't have big issues with sizes and even when I order things to be delivered to South America, everything was fine. Now I'm secure with the idea, at least when I'm buying from stores I already have an experience!

I've heard good things about that site from YouTube users so I believe they're trustworthy. But I have heard that some of their items run small. Personally, I like to window shop online but I don't care to order online. I hate paying shipping for things I can buy in person and I prefer to try on things before I buy them. Even with a return policy, their is too much of a hassle sending items back and waiting to get refunded. And even then, some sites don't refund you for shipping. To sum this up, buy things you can't find around you online. Don't order too m ugh at first until you can determine whether they are trustworthy and worth your effort.

I love to shop for clothes online simple because I like to have a very individual style, I also like expensive clothes (not good when your a part time yoga instructor and stay at home mom) so I found a site called Twice.com (consignment store) so far I have bought a couple pairs of jeans, some tops and an evening dress, a couple items were new with tags and the others just gently worn, all have fit great with the exception of a pair of Black House White Market jeans, all I did was print a label and sent them back no questions asked, they paid return shipping costs. They carry great brands and also high end handbags, I very rarely buy new and trust me this is something I never would of even considered a few years ago and you can sell your clothes on there site for either cash or online store credit.

I belong to many online clothing stores. I love buying online and really haven't had any problems. I tend to find better deals and more original items.

I always try the clothing in store first so I know what size I am in that store and then can shop online whenever! I love shopping online, less stress!

Thanks for sharing. Good site to shop the shoes and dresses. But I usually shop at Ebay.com. Highly recomend!!!! so cheap and easy to use. Don't forget, Use Ebay discount code 15 off or any Ebay coupon code 2014 at coupon sites. Ex: http://coupon4share.com/store/ebay.com

Go for it! Online stores offer unique pieces compared to the mall stores which have items you will see everyone wearing. If it doesn't work for you, don't be afraid to use the return policy, that's why it is in place!

I think if you know kind of how their clothes fit you it can be a very convenient way to shop. As long as they have a return policy I say go for it. I ordered a bunch of clothes online because they were on sale, unfortunately I thought I was much skinnier than I really was and had to return them all! Thankfully they had a store I could return them too lol
