Zapaka

We were a bit nervous to be honest. We didn't think our dress would come in on time as the web site said 2 weeks & the dress came 1month in a half later, however, it did finally arrive & is beautiful. My daughter loves it! We were not only happy that it looked exactly as the picture, we appreciated a call from an actual person after I sent an email. I was met with respect & professionalism. That is hard to find. So thank You

Great dresses. Mostly black with tartan inserts. They're a good fit (I ordered a comfy fit rather than a tighter one) and they make me feel good. I liked the side-zipper at the waistline of one dress, and the stretchy material of the other dress. The A-line shape makes for a more flattering silhouette.
I ordered them with over a month before they was needed. They took 2 weeks to confirm the mailing address, but once that was sorted, the dresses arrived promptly from Shanghai to Sydney.

I was looking for a dress to wear to a wedding and I love vintage, mainly 50s. This site has so many options and for a decent price. I ordered 3 dresses and 2 tutu petticoats. I am actually in love with these dresses and planning on ordering some of the other dresses I really wanted to buy originally. The dresses are well made in my opinion and really soft. I am always concerned when ordering online, the main reason I took the plunge was seeing customer photos of the black and white striped dress and saw how well it looked. None seem cheaply made. I have seen some reviews complaining about wait time, even from coming from China I ordered on Aug 5 and received them Aug 17... maybe Canada has a lesser issue arriving?

I have noticed that most of the negative reviews on this site (sitejabber) are not verified customers. So I'm not sure if those people are actually fake. I mean out of 75 1star reviews only 15 are verified? Seems odd.

Either way, I love these dresses and gonna order more in the near future.

Absolute sham of a company, I ordered a dress from here, received a confirmation code had 3 tracking updates then nothing. Every link they’ve sent to track has gone to a dodgey site and given no information. They responded to one email with no information or proof of where the dress is and now they won’t respond. I’ve had to buy a new dress because i highly doubt this one will ever arrive. $250 out of pocket with nothing to show for it. Absolutely disgusting , I hope they get shut down and made to pay everyone they’ve ripped off.

Not every worth 1 star. Paid $50 express shipping. Still didn’t arrive 2 weeks after the website eta of 4-7 days for express. They lost the parcel, told me it’s out of their hands and to contact the courier. Never heard of fastest couriers! I wonder why. They told me they can’t deal with me and to go back to the supplier. Zapuka then produced a confirmation from Fastway Couriers claiming that I in fact signed for the delivery (no proof of signature or photo of course!) when in fact I DIDN’T! They know they can get away with this type of behaviour because consumers are NOT covered. Do not buy from them. They do not care about lost parcels, they have insurance from the dodgy courier they use and we lose out in the end.

Do not purchase anything from this company. The items I purchased were the wrong size and of poor quality, so I followed every instruction given to return them. I paid for the postage and the package was turned back. I wasted money on clothes that I can’t wear, and I wasted money on shipping. Now they are ignoring my emails. Order number ZAPAKAAU31198

Do NOT use the company it’s a complete scam and the clothes are like costumes with inferior fabrics and ill fitting sizes . I ordered an XL and received a child’s size something ? No returns and my 24 refund has been over a month and now they’ve stopped replying. It’s a complete scam and you will be extremely disappointed! Read all the online reviews first the only good reviews were likely written by thier damage control team . You will be very sorry if you purchase something through zapaka.ca

I ordered from them last week on June 16. They did not send a confirmation email, yet the took the money. I tried reaching them to get confirmation email or expected delivery date, they would not give me any information. Asked them to cancel the order, they said they would not give me a refund. They would only refund me delivery fees. The dress cost $248. So they have taken this amount plus shipping, I do not have any receipts or proof of purchase for them. They say they do not have my email address to send confirmation and I have provided them with my email 3 times.

Ordered a dress but didn't realise until 3 weeks later this is NOT a UK company - goods are sent from China.

Didn't receive item so contacted co. to be told as the parcel is in the UK then I have to chase it up with the courier. No courier info and co ignored my request for this info. Another 2 weeks of email ping pong and discover item is being returned to seller (?) I demand a refund but am told I have to wait until they receive it. I contacted my bank and after a further 14 days received a full refund by way of a chargeback. AVOID AVOID AVOID!

Branded as a UK site but demanding payment of returns at my cost to China . I feel this is very sneaky especially when the items were not delivered on time ( therefore no use to me. Beware .

This business should be shut down. They are scamming people and taking their money! Makes returns impossible, because you have to pay for shipping and the only warehouse that accepts returns are in China. Shipping would have cost me around $100 is what I was told by ***. They also do not ship within the time frame they say. If they say 10 to 15 days, go ahead and double that. DO NOT BUY FROM THIS WEBSITE.

I ordered an off-the-hanger IN STOCK US Size 8 Prom Dress on May 8th, it's now May 25th, and I have not heard from the company about shipping or any information about tracking for my order - they happily took my money when the order was placed and are now unreachable. I have tried reaching out by email and phone - no response and no one answers the phone. I will be cancelling my order and asking for a refund via ***.

I ordered a dress according to the body measurements/size chart, and it was very big. When I contacted customer service,*** said to take the dress to a tailor, and she'd give me partial refund. I emailed her once I took the dress to a tailor, she replied my email a week later saying to return the dress instead. It's too late for that now. Don't expect a high quality dress or good customer service for the price you pay. The dress doesn't have any lining and it's see through.

I ordered two dresses from Zapaka on Sep. 17, 2021 and have yet to receive a shipping notification. When ordering, it was stated that I would receive a text alert when the products shipped. I have yet to receive anything. I got a text after placing the order that had a link to my order, but no email. Their site says that if you don't receive a confirmation email that your order is still going to be placed. That seems incredibly out of the ordinary and makes me believe this site is a scam. The payment was immediately processed along with a foreign transaction fee (I live in the USA). I am ready to dispute the charge with my credit card company. I would be leery of this business.

I order two dresses and paid expedited shipping. It took almost 2 months to get the dresses. I asked if I could cancel my order and they said if I did, I wouldn't get a refund, just shipping refunded. They said it had to be shipped to me, then I could return it. Now I have the dress to return and it will cost over $100 to return the dress to them. It is ridiculous and I am stuck with a dress that costs too much to return, came ridiculously slow and a company that adds additional requirements in order to return the item. I am disappointed and will not be ordering from them again. Be cautious because if you order from them, it will take forever to get your item and you cannot return it without paying a ridiculous price.

I ordered my daughters dress for her prom on April 13 and it was supposed to be here in 15 days. So I kept in touch with the company and come to find out it was going to take longer past the prom date. I tried to cancel the and get my refund back and they stated that it was over 120 days since I ordered it and all I would get back is shipping cost, but then they wanted me to keep the dress and they would give me 20% back of the cost. I went ahead and kept the dress. Poor customer service and false advertising of where the dress was coming from. I finally got the dress after 34 days waiting for it. If I knew it was coming from China, I wouldn't of bought it. I had to go out and buy another dress for the prom. When they shipped it, it came from China, South Korea, Alaska, Kentucky then to Indiana. Please don't order anything from this place, it's a ripoff and they don't communicate with you at all.

2 dresses, sent the wrong size, Zapaka refused to take responsibility I ordered two dresses, nothing too fancy. It took almost a month for them to ship. I wouldn't have had a problem with that if customer service had been honest about the timeline when I contacted them after more than a week. I was out of town for two weeks when they finally shipped and had to arrange for packages to be held at the post office. I really don't like being lied to. It gets worse. When they finally shipped to me, they sent the wrong size. I initiated the exchange or return process and Zapaka stated I was responsible for paying the shipping for the exchange, international shipping to China. It gets better. It's not a guaranteed exchange or return. They will inspect this dress I tried on once to determine if it is in good enough condition for an exchange/return. I responded that it was Zapaka's mistake and they needed to take responsibility for paying for the return shipping; if they had sent the correct size to start I wouldn't need to send it back. DO NOT ORDER FROM THIS COMPANY without considering that you may end up stuck with a product you didn't order without any means to fix the situation without spending more money. Their customer service is terrible.

I am very upset.
1. they never gave my my conformation email that I was supposed to get the moment I ordered my dress. I placed my order April 8th.
2. Going based off the description of the dress on the website my dress should've been here no later than May 10th. But still, I ordered my package a whole month and half ahead of time for my event. In the description of the dress it said that it would take 7-14 days tailoring time and with standard shipping it would take 6-10 business days to ship.
3.They gave me tracking number that didn't even work on USPS. USPS just says that item label created nit yet in the the system. And that they're waiting for more information. It also says it's a priority mail package, meaning that it only takes 1-3 business days shipping.
4. I asked an employee about this. Only for them to LIE to me saying that USPS already has my package? And is shipping it. Even then, it should already be here with their 1-3 day business day shipping
I message them AGAIN only for them to tell me that the tracking number THEY GAVE ME, is being shipped by a different company (JS express) but they never even told me that very important information until I asked. My package has been in transit for 14 BUSINESS DAYS as of right now (and still in transit). I am very sad because that is not was was advertised on the website (8-12 business days). I messaged them again, and they said the USPS will update it once my package lands in my country (usa). My package landed in ORD (airport in my country). Yet for some reason no update was made.
4. Not only does USPS say "Item label Created, Not yet in system. It will be available when the shipper provides an update or the package is delivered to USPS. Check back soon." Obviously they don't have my package,
Again, Zapaka never gave me my conformation email giving me estimated shipping date
5. My prom dress probably wont make it here in time for my event. I spent all this money for a dress I can't even return (its custom size, so I cant return it). Will probably will have to wear for graduation instead (if it even makes it in time for that) Wont ever be ordering from here ever again

Again, where is my conformation email that was supposed include estimated time of delivery? I need to know just in case if I need to waste even more money on a backup dress for a dress that should've already been here
:(

The WORST online shopping experience!
The WORST customer service!
DO NOT TRUST THIS WEBSITE!

1. Bad quality!
Don't trust their pictures!
I placed two orders around the same time. One dress came early. It looked totally different from the pictures they post on their website. It was supposed to be an A-line dress. The dress I got was definitely not an A-line shape. Also, the material looked cheaper. The second dress I received looked less different from their picture. However, it was not the size I ordered. I ordered size XS but the dress I received was size S according to their own size guide.

2.No easy return. Don't trust what they claim!
You have to pay for the shipping and the customer service will tell you to keep the dress and give you a 20% refund. It took forever to get that 20% refund. I had to follow up three times so they actually processed it. I believe if I didn't follow up, they wouldn't actually give me the refund.

3.The customer service ignores messages on WhatsApp and emails!
They replied to my first email fast and asked for pictures to prove that the dress I got didn't look like the pictures on their website. However, once they knew my frustration, they started to reply very slowly and eventually ignored my email.
After I noticed they didn't reply to my email, I tried to reach out on WhatsApp. Again! They replied to my HI message fast but once they knew the reason I reached out on WhatsApp, they never read my message and replied to me.

4.The customer service doesn't keep their promise!
When the customer service offered me a 20% refund for the first dress I received, they also agreed that I could cancel my other order (because I could no longer trust their product quality.) However, a few days later, they sent out that second dress! I reached out again to understand how this happened and how they wanted to address this situation. The customer service only replied to me saying they would go ahead to check the status and never gave me an actual update or any solution to this.

5. They hid bad reviews on their website!
Zapaka sent out a robot email to ask me to leave a review on the dress I received. I left a bad review and stated the dress doesn't look like their pictures at all. I even included pictures I took to show how different the dress was. That review was never published on their website. I bet they hid tons of bad reviews customers left so?if there are zero reviews for a dress, it probably means they hid many bad reviews and there aren't any nice reviews to show.

Issue with contact with customer service, no address for returns. No clear return policy. I wrote email to customer service, called/ wrote whatsapp, wrote on chat. No reply since few days, while return policy says I should declare return within 7 days from shipment. I declared it and no one called back, wrote back or anything. Very poor or non-existing customer service and return policy that is simply a fraud

Zapaka is the worst company I have ever dealt with. I lost more than $100 because of their terrible service. They sent me the wrong dress, or maybe they just lied to me about what I was getting. When I tried to contact them, they were absolutely terrible to deal with. They expected me to pay to send the dress back, which is ridiculous. After sending them 50 million emails, they finally offered me a 20% refund. That's just robbery. I strongly advise you to look elsewhere and do your research before buying anything from Zapaka. Just take a look at the photo of what I wanted versus what I got. It's disgusting.

I gotta say, I'm pretty disappointed with Zapaka. I mean, I ordered two dresses from them and they turned out to be way too small. And when I tried to return them, I found out that I had to send them all the way to China! Like, what the heck? They didn't even tell me that in their return policy. So now I'm stuck with these dresses that I can't wear and I lost $73 in the process. And don't even get me started on how expensive it is to ship something to China. It's ridiculous!

Honestly, I feel like Zapaka was being pretty sneaky by not disclosing that information. It's not like I would have ordered from them if I knew I had to ship something to China just to return it. And to make matters worse, their sizes are way smaller than what we're used to in the USA. Like, I ordered a medium and it was more like an extra small.

The only good thing I can say about Zapaka is that they did refund me 10%. But let's be real, that's not even enough to buy a decent meal. I mean, I could maybe buy two gallons of milk with that money. But what good is that gonna do me when I'm stuck with these dresses that don't fit?

Overall, I would not recommend Zapaka to anyone. Unless you want to risk losing money and getting stuck with clothes that don't fit, I suggest you shop somewhere else.

This company is not good. I ordered a dress from them but it never came. I waited for a long time because I thought it might be coming from far away. But then I decided to ask them about it. They said they would check on it for me. But I never heard anything back from them. So I asked again. And they said I had to prove that I never got the dress. That's ridiculous! I don't have time to be calling up shipping companies and asking for papers to prove that I never got my dress. This company is a scam. Don't buy from them.

So, I had a really bad experience with Zapaka. I ordered some dresses and when they arrived, they were nothing like the pictures on the website. I was really disappointed and wanted to return them. But when I looked into the return policy, I found out that I would have to send them back to China and it would cost me $60! Plus, it would take over a month to get my money back. I couldn't believe it! Why didn't they tell me this before I ordered?

I tried to talk to customer service, but they weren't very helpful. They just kept telling me that I was responsible for the shipping costs. They even admitted that the dresses are made to look like the pictures, but they're not actually the same dress! What a scam! I wish I had read some reviews before I ordered.

So, my advice to you is to stay away from Zapaka. Don't waste your money or your time. There are plenty of other places to buy dresses that won't rip you off.

Oh my goodness, I am so disappointed with my experience with Zapaka. I was really excited to order two 1920s Black and white dresses and accessories for Halloween, and I even paid an extra ?16 for express delivery to make sure they arrived on time. But guess what? They didn't arrive on time! I was so upset and frustrated, I had to order some more dresses from Amazon Prime instead. And honestly, I think the dresses I got from Amazon were even better quality than what I would have gotten from Zapaka.

Now I'm trying to get a refund, but it's been a total nightmare. I'm still waiting for a response, and I'm really worried based on what I've seen in other reviews. And to make matters worse, I have to pay to return the items back to China. Ugh, what a mess.

Overall, I would definitely not recommend Zapaka. Save your money and go somewhere else.

I recently made a purchase from Zapaka, and unfortunately, it was not a positive experience. I ordered a pair of shoes that were labeled as a size 40/US9, but when they arrived, they were far too small for my narrow size 7 feet. I attempted to return the shoes, but after a month of back and forth with customer service, they only offered me a refund of $16 instead of the $55 I had paid for them.

To make matters worse, it took over a month for my merchandise to even arrive, and when it did, everything was much smaller than expected. While I was able to find people who could fit into the clothing I had purchased, the shoes were a complete waste. They were cheaply made and had a very odd shape and size that made them unwearable.

Overall, I would not recommend Zapaka to anyone. The poor quality of their products and the difficulty in returning items make it a waste of time and money. Save yourself the hassle and shop elsewhere.

So, I decided to give Zapaka a try and ordered a beautiful Yellow dress. I was so excited to receive it, but it took almost a month to arrive. Finally, when I got my hands on it, I was disappointed to see that the dress was made of sheer material. It was so see-through that I felt like I was wearing nothing at all. The quality of the dress was just horrible. It came with a belt, but there were no loops to secure it in place. I tried to contact the company, but they told me that I had to pay for the return postage if I wanted to return it. And guess where the product came from? China!

I was really disappointed with my experience with Zapaka. The dress was not worth the wait or the money. I wouldn't recommend this business to anyone. The quality of their products is just not up to par. If you're looking for a reliable and trustworthy online store, I suggest you look elsewhere.

I gotta say, I had a pretty bad experience with Zapaka. I mean, if you're gonna order from them, you better be sure it's gonna fit and arrive on time, 'cause otherwise you're in for a world of hurt. They make it seem like they've got fast delivery and easy returns, but that's just not the case.

First off, the delivery was definitely not fast. I was waiting and waiting for my dresses to arrive, and when they finally did, it was too late for the event I needed them for. And then, when I tried to return them, I got the run around. They didn't want to take them back, and when they finally agreed to, they made it seem like it was gonna be a hassle.

And get this - I bought dresses for more than one person, and they told me that was against policy! Like, what kind of policy is that? And then, when I tried to return them, they told me I had to pay for shipping back to China. Like, seriously? That's just ridiculous. And they made it so difficult and time-consuming that I almost gave up and didn't even bother sending them back.

So yeah, unless you want to deal with all that, I'd say do yourself a favor and order from somewhere else. Zapaka might have some cute stuff, but it's just not worth the hassle.

I ordered a dress from zapaka because it was stated on the website that they can ship it within 48 hours. I recieved the dress TWO WEEKS later. when i opened the dress package, I find that a whole strap from the dress on the right shoulder is MISSING. I wanted to return it and so contacted the customer service only for them to tell me that I had to return the dress to China, and that I had to handle the shipping cost, even though it was their fault the dress was damaged. I would appreciate if they could cover the shipping cost for me to return the dress.

A horrible horrible company. Stay away! Dont trash your money!

I have purchased a dress 3 weeks ago with the ZAPAKADE28209 order number and the quality is completely different than the picture in their website. Since days I have been trying to reach them out by calling and mailing to carry the return&refund process out, so far nobody answered to any of my emails nor my calls. Yet they promise answering in 24h answer in their website!

I am so regret and frusturated. I have never had such an bad experience from any website before. I will file a law suit and encourage other customers who have similar experiences to do so!

Dont let these people to earn money out of lies and tricks!

I am trying to return a dress I ordered from this company. They ask that customers first contact them to make arrangements for return. I have called a number of times, I have sent emails so many time. I have sent messages to them on *** and they will not get back to me. Please help me get the dress returned so I can either make an exchange for another dress or get a refund. Thanks for your assistance in this matter. ***PH: *** email:

My daughter ordered a dress on-line through Zapaka on 1/29/2022, order ***. After a month with the dress not having been shipped, I contacted the company in late February and received a response on 3/1 that the order was still in processing. Since then I have seen that they have a very poor Complaintsboard.com rating. Today, since it has not shipped, I requested a refund. They responded and said their cancellation policy is timed based on time of purchase and that basically at this point I would only be refunded shipping, because of "time and labor consumed in processing the order". The dress was $140,40 and shipping was $8.88 total $149.28

I ordered 3 dresses. One on 7/21 for $35, one on 7/23 for $32 and one on 7/27 for $35. The first one arrived and did not fit. The other 2 did not arrive on time for the event.. They have false advertising for fast delivery and easy returns. Delivery was definitely not fast and I am getting the run around on trying to return the dresses that did not arrive in time. Also bought dresses for more than one person and I am told they do not encourage buying multiple in different sizes and is against policy. What?! Return shipping to China is on you and they try to exhaust you so that you get frustrated and don't even bother sending things back. It's pretty sickening and time consuming. Very shady business practices

I purchased two dresses from ZAPAKA on September 3. Order Number ***. I received the dresses on September 16. When I would track the delivery with USPS they were coming from New Jersey. When the dresses arrived they did not fit right. I immediately contact ZAPAKA to set up the return. They went back and forth with me about returning them and kept telling me to read their return policy which I did. They made me send them pictures of the dresses. Finally, after several emails, they gave me a return address of China. The average cost of returning the item to China was $40.00. The dresses cost $71.40. I told them the dresses came from New Jersey but they insist that you can only return them to China. Nowhere on their website states that return has to go to China at your expense. This is unfair consumer practice and needs to be addressed.

I purchased a dress from the business after researching the return policy in-depth and contacted them on a US phone number. When we received the prom dress, it didn't fit my daughter so we decided to send it back. However when I requested a return, the company told me that I was only able to ship it back to their Warehouse in China. The cost of shipping is almost as much as what we paid for the dress. When I asked the business to either send me a prepaid return address label or provide me with an address in the United States to return the product, they said they weren't able to do either. The website is very misleading and nowhere on there does it say that you would have to ship the product back to another country. Had it said that anywhere on the website or in the return policy or when I called them on the US number I wouldn't have purchased the dress from them.
