Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Looking at 126 reviews, most reviewers were unhappy with their experience overall. Many customers found the product quality to be extremely poor, with items often made from cheap fabric, having uneven shapes, and lacking proper labels or stitching. Reviewers also reported significant issues with inaccurate sizing, with garments being much smaller than expected and not matching the advertised images or descriptions. The refund process was a major source of frustration, as customers were often offered only partial refunds or required to return items to China at their own expense, incurring additional customs and shipping fees. However, some people were satisfied with their purchases, noting that certain items like shorts, pants, and jackets fit well and felt comfortable, with some even receiving compliments. A few other people also felt that the quality matched the price, offering good value, and appreciated the variety of styles and affordability.

Material is shockingly thin and see…

Material is shockingly thin and see through for what you are paying. Sizing is wrong and I assumed the shop was in Melbourne but everything by gets shipped to you from china. When asking for a refund they offer to send me the correct size and I can keep the items for 10USD otherwise if I want a refund I need to pay for costs to return the item which is more than the items purchased and they offer to refund 15% of my total cost. Will never purchase items from here again. Absolutely a rip off poor quality and bad customer service. If I could give minus 10 star rating I would.

Sizing is absolutely wrong

Sizing is absolutely wrong. Be careful they make you refund and will take almost half your pay for them. It also took forever so don’t buy if you don’t like to wait or need Australian service

THESE PEOPLE ARE PURE EVIL!!…

This was my reply when I asked to return their disgustingly crappy suits which did not fit and were if such poor quality, I wouldn't wash my dog with them:

I had a time in hospital due to a serious heart episode and missed the return window.

Their reply was "NO REFUND, YOU'RE OUTSIDE THE RETURN WINDOW!"

My reply was:

"What a disgrace!!!

I simply cannot believe you won't assist a customer that almost died and was unable to open these suits until now, missing you return window???

That's just horrible; Where are your values?

I am looking for flexibility here and for you to think outside the box and treat this case as an extraordinary exception.

Thanks for your your heartless response!

Are you positive you don't wish to revisit this decision? Let me know!!!!

It I don't hear within the next 24 I guess I'll get the picture.

I'm any case, I'll be going all detailing my doctors reports, specialists letters, hospital dates and discharge letters, plus your heartless response, and more, to as media outlets, and social media platforms as possible.

My dear lord. All for a tiny amount of $$$.

Unbelievable.

Best of luck!"

Honestly, avoid at all costs!! Note, the reviews all all mostly 1 star. The products are rubbish. Enough said. These people are thieves!

Terrible quality, sizing and returns process

Such poor quality - you’d be better off shopping on Shein! Such a rip off. Then they only offer a 10% refund or to return my item they want me to pay for shipping to China, which I have very little faith that I would ever get my money back.
Was fully led to believe they were an Aussie store. They are a scam!

SCAM


SCAM
This company pretends to be based in Melbourne but makes you return items to China. Their return policy is deceptive and possibly illegal under Australian Consumer Law.

I bought two items, neither fit, and they:
• Offered only a 10–30% refund to avoid a proper return
• Demanded I pay expensive international return fees
• Asked me to falsely declare a low customs value, which is illegal

They refuse to follow basic consumer rights like offering a full refund or covering return costs for faulty or misrepresented items.

I’ve reported them to ACCC and Consumer Affairs Victoria.
Avoid this seller — it’s not worth the risk.

STAY WELL AWAY!!!

I ordered boots from this store. They arrived and are a smaller fit and very cheap construction. I requested a return the same day they arrived. To be told they don’t do returns only exchanges. I sent through the return policy to be told they do do returns and offered me discounts to keep the product. When I said I wanted to return and full refund they said that it must be returned to China and that I top of postage there will be duty fees. I’m waiting for further response but it looks like the only way is to take the partial refund.

DO NOT PURCHASE ANYTHING FROM THIS COMPANY. Complete scam! Bomber mens jacket was of extremely poor quality that had no resemblance to garment on the website. Garment did not have any identifying label, not even care instructions label.

Cheap crap from China

Cheap crap from China. You need to return the products to China at your expense and pay duty which costs more than the item. No interaction with people from Melbourne as far as I can see. One star because the shirt fit as described.

Van Halen is rubbish

As soon as I opened the package I knew it was rubbish. Button holes were not sewn properly so on the first fitting they became disfigured. The pullover knitting was really poor with large loose loops and loose ends, the shape of the garment was uneven. No labels with washing instructions, or size and the material felt horrible. I should have read the reviews before wasting $84

SCAM .. VAN HALLEN MELBOURNE

I bought a semi formal dress from Van Hallen Melbourne...
The item that I received was a net. No shape, no substance.... No dress... There's no way I could have worn the thing sent to me out in public...
I asked for a refund... Told I could have a percentage refund or I could spend a fortune mailing it back to CHINA ¡!!!!!!
Totally unacceptable...
Total scam ....
