Verified Reviewer New ReviewerQuality of purchase
I returned the items purchased due to the VERY poor quality of the product. Because OT would not provide a postage paid return label I had to pay for the return myself. The initial purchase price w/ shipping was $20.33. I had to pay $15.59 for the return!!!! If I had used the original packaging that the items came in it would have cost over $30! The reason being because the cost of the initial shipping is a bulk rate. I called numerous times to get this resolved. Bottom line is OT will not provide return shipping!! And that is why Amazon is so successful!!!!
User's recommendation: Buy elsewhere.

The company refunded my money but not the shipping but it is what it is.
Original review posted by user Feb 20, 2020
The items are cheap looking and they charge you a lot for shipping and then if you need to return it they will ask you to pay for it. I bought an item worth $2.50 and I paid almost $7.50 in shipping. But when the item arrived it looks so cheap and not as expected and they want me to pay for shipping the item back. It would cost me more to pay the shipping than the item I bought. This is lesson learned next time try to order from reputable online store like Amazon or ebay. Avoid this online store. Resolved

Temporary Workers are Not Human
I work for a temp service and I work very hard for OTC and as I work and sweat they are more interested in getting extras. That is good but on the backs of a unsung workers, the temporary workers. I don't even get a good morning or a Hello, how are you. We are like slaves. And the funny thing about this company it is own by Buffett. On the backs of temps. For Shame.

Cancel order without notifying me and then make up lies
I placed an important order that they canceled without notifying me. When I called to find out details they made up lies and said I called the next day to place a hold on the item and then cancel it. I never contacted them. This is the reason why they are loosing their business to amazon. Treating your customer indifferently and make up lies when you make mistakes. Just terrible. I don’t think I will ordering from them again. I will be going to their competitors who care about their costumers. If you need an order, if it’s important then don’t use this company.

Great customer service!
I recently ordered some items through Oriental Trading, and as soon as I got the shipping notification I realized I accidentally had it shipped to my OLD address. I called into Oriental Trading and quickly got a live person on the phone. I talked to Jag in Guest Relations who was very nice. He got in touch with UPS but they weren't able to reroute it, so instead of just telling me I'd have to go to the post office to get it once my old address declines it (like other companies have told me), he reshipped the entire order to me free of charge! And it was my error that I forgot to update my address! So generous. I didn't expect such great service from a company that sells such low-cost items. The products may be cheap, but the customer service is much appreciated. Thank you so much!!

Oriental Trading - Shipping Service Review from Madinat 'isa, Ash Shamaliyah
I am so so so so angry with oriental trading - I made an order asked for overnight shipping - then when it processed it said 2-4 days so I then contacted them and was told they would upgrade the shipping for free - then I got an email that my order was on hold due to versification of billing address - I replied right away stating that this is the address however if you cannot ship it overnight pls do not process the order as I have a party and it won't get to me in time - I continued to get automated responses I then call them FIVE days later and then they overnight it !! It was too late then and I said DAILY pls refund or credit me and my oRder for 5.days hadn't even been processed !!! So why they couldn't do that I don't know terrible customer service I am so angry and disappointed
