Viking Goods Company Reviews 20

I ordered a t-shirt for my boyfriend in November 2024. He loved the design and it held up well...until I ruined it via a laundry mishap. (Chapstick in the dryer. Don't recommend.) He was sad about it, so I headed back over to Viking Goods to buy a replacement. That's when the trouble started.

I put the shirt in my cart, along with another shirt for myself to get free shipping. When I checked out, my browser extension automatically applied coupon codes to get me the best deal. When I saw the low price after the coupon was applied (now waaaaaaay below the free shipping threshold), I figured I may as well get another shirt and bring the order total up high enough for free shipping. Great, right?

Nope. The price was shockingly low, the shirts came, and everything was fine...until it wasn't.

Exactly one month after I ordered, I just happened to be looking at my credit card transactions and saw Viking Goods had charged me $19.99 earlier that day. What the heck? I hadn't ordered anything else.

I checked my order confirmation to make sure I hadn't forgotten about anything. Nope. But I did see something I'd forgotten about: "Threadheads x1" and the price was listed as "free." I remember being a little confused when I initially got the confirmation, but figured it was some kind of free gift that would be included with my order...a sticker or something.

Uh...nope. I emailed customer service about the weird charge. They replied a few days later, saying it was my "monthly subscription." What? Subscription?

Yeah...you can buy a subscription for $19.99/month to get 50% off at their website. Why would anyone do that? Who is buying t-shirts often enough and in large enough quantities that this makes sense?

Apparently Viking Goods thought this was something I wanted, and added it to my order. My order summary says *nothing* beyond "free." Nothing about how a monthly charge will kick in later on, nothing about how to opt out, NOTHING. I was just signed up for this without my knowledge or consent.

Super shady. We like the shirts, but we will never buy anything from this company again because of the shady practices that

Ordered 2 shirts which took about a month to arrive. Then they charged me 19.99 a month later for a "subscription" to their website that I did not sign up for. I went back to their website to double check and no where was this subscription mentioned, it's a total scam.

Ordered a shirt in February..good quality but I look at my bank account March 30th and they took out 19.99 for a subscription fee which i did not sign up for..there is no live person to talk to you have to email them with no response ..I advise everyone to avoid this company

I ordered four t-shirts three weeks ago. I was charged but have not received the shirts. Only communication from the company was a confirmation of my order, the day I ordered and paid.

The t-shirts are adorable. Arrived in a timely manner, good quality. Looks just like the photos. Definitely give this company a thumbs up.

I placed an order for 4 items on 12/1. After 2 weeks, I emailed customer service and asked for order status and a tracking number. They responded 2 days later saying the order was on the way and provided a DHL tracking number link. I went to the link and it indicated it was invalid or incorrect. I wrote again and after 2 days they responded and said:

"Thank you for your patience as we look into your order. Unfortunately, we were unable to fulfill the items on your order, which means that we cannot ship any part of it at this time. We understand how important it is for you to receive your items before Christmas, and we sincerely apologize for the inconvenience this has caused.

We have processed a full refund for your order. Alternatively, if you’re interested in selecting different items that are available for quicker shipping, you can go ahead and repurchase.

Thank you for choosing Viking Goods, and we appreciate your understanding in this matter."

Really? After waiting 19 days, having to ask 2x about status and providing inaccurate information? Thanks a lot Viking for your poor processes since it does impact my Christmas gift giving! Never again Viking!

Dishonest company and owner. Will take your money, and automatically sign you up for a membership that was never mentioned

They have a kind of scam that a month after I ordered 5 t-shirts from them, they charged my card for a "Threadheads" subscription. I did NOT want to have a subscription nor did I expect that they would force one on me. And I have will never do business with these guys again!

I have ordered a total of 5 tshirts from them over 2 separate transactions. The shirts were extremely high quality (not the cheap fast fashion from other sites) & the graphics were perfect. Love the unique designs, softness, & overall high quality of the shirts.

Scam company!!! Won't respond to email or any inquiries

Placed an order in December 10 for one item. We live in PA and this is a PA company. The shirt never shipped until December 24 - 2 weeks after the order was placed!!! Nothing saying when the order was placed that it would not arrive in time for holiday. Next time I will spend my money much more wisely and not with this fake home-state company.

Ordered two shirts, never shipped. Customer service never responded to my email either. Pretty bad, considering the warehouse is in the state I live in. I will probably need to get a refund through my credit card at this point.

Similar experience to others. Ordered 15 days ago without verifying the company (never do that). At 10 days, contacted their CS email. I received an email promising shipment “this week”. Have asked for a cancel and refund. Will dispute through my bank. Don’t order, even if some people report getting their merch, this place is sketchy. No employees in LinkedIn. No other news or info on the web.

I ordered 2 shirts and have received no info as far as shipping updates. I have emailed 3 times with no response from the company. Disappointing to say the least. I will be contacting my CC company and dispute the charge..

Waiting for weeks to get two tee's I ordered through an Instagram store front. Still have not received it and can't get any updates from the online website. A day after I ordered, someone hacked my Debit card. I'm guessing these are related events.

The 2 tee shirts I ordered came fairly quickly. About a week. But the quality was bad. Have net washed them yet as my son didn’t like either of them so I guess I’ll wear mine to bed. Oh well, waste of money. Why deceive your customers. Cheap garbage.

This was a good company to get merchandise from until it all of a sudden wasn't: I ordered two shirts from them, and after waiting almost two months with no communication or updates, asked repeatedly for a reimbursement. Each inquiry was met with a "They are coming" or "they are shipping in two days!" though that never happened. After being met with enough gaslighting from "Nicole" I asked for a complete refund. Will never order from this weird company again.

Items were ordered and they use Shopify to deliver them. Tried to notify Shopify that I did not receive the items. Glitchy app, could not get passed I am not a robot. Only way to notify Viking Goods Company is through email. So far no response. I’ll take the issue to my cc company. Should have ordered through Amazon and not their website.

Warning…Don’t be fooled by the vividness of this shirt. After washing it in cold water and low heat the decal was stuck to itself and I had to peel it open, and then I saw the shirt looked like something you would get at a thrift shop.
