What kind of store stops you from entering to see what they are selling and demands that you sign up and become a member? One Kings lane . Is this for real? I don't know if I want to bee a member until I see what they're selling. how obnoxious and outrageous can you be. Join out CULT and then we'll tell you what we're selling. Well what are they selling ? your email address and information? Why would a store demand that you join just to look. I never heard of these idiots and i'm hope to never hear of them again. I look before I sign up for anything and hopefully you will too.

I think “One King’s Lane” is an amazing site for the consumer. It is a great way to save money on home decorating items. It also lets you shop the collected items from the best designers in our industry. You need to get over yourself. If you don’t want to join delete the email. You need to find something more important to focus on then complaining about a successful online e-tailer.

Mandatory registration just to *view* an online shopping site? And if you fall for that, they follow up with a cheerful "while you're at it, how about giving us your friends email addresses too?". All this just to walk in the door? Really??? I think I'll do my shopping with someone who wants my business, not my personal information.

since the Ripoff Report requires the same information, what are you complaining about? Have you ever bought anything from OKL, or is this just a meritless rant?

I too am appalled at a company that wants you to pay them prior to seeing what they actually sell. This is not only an inapproprirate business practice, it borders on scamming people. What if their products are junk? Why are you not given a full refund if you don't like their stuff? Why is it that you have to pay just to see what they might or might not have? All of it is absolutely ridiculous. Stay away. If a business is legitimate and has real products at real savings that regular folks can afford and want to buy, telling people you can't see any of those products until you pay them upfront for the "priviledge" and give vast personal information to the suspect company is a red flag on its face. Stay far far away from a company like that. Frankly, the only people I've seen saying they "love" OKL are those who I suspect are part of the pyramid sales force they set-up to mimic the old "Builders Direct" scam of the same ilk.
Bottom line: If a company has legitimate products, they are ALWAYS more than happy to let you know what they are before asking you to pay to just see them. Go elsewhere.

If you're so concerned about giving out your email, open up a new one just to join. There's no cost, that I can see of. I found this thread while researching this website. Calm down...

I see alot of One Kings employees on this string. How else would there be such incredulous responses to a very good point this consumer has made. Are you suggesting that this site is so exciting, different and sure to give me such a unique shopping experience that I need go go quick and sign up for a fake email account just to make a fake registration so I can see what Home Goods, Marshalls or Overstock have without my having to waste time?
I think you are. And for that reason, you are foolish. I don't care enough. Too many other excellent shopping opportunities. Consumer readers of this site, beware of giving your personal information to these sites. They will sell your info and send you spam- guaranteeing you'll see a major increase in junk mail and perhaps even viruses.
Just beware and use your heads. No online shopping site has that unique merchandise. Especially one that forces you to input your personal data before you buy.

I can't believe you are complaining this severely about One Kings Lane. OKL is one of many flash sale websites that offer limited time sales for consumers. It only requires you to enter an email address to be able to access the sales. You had to provide far more information to sign up for this site than you would to sign up for OKL or another flash sale site. Also if you are not aware of the concept of a flash sale website or refuse to understand the concept (because it sounds like you are not open to the idea...) you must be living under a rock. Not to mention you are paying far too much money for quality home goods :)

Personally, I though it was a great idea and appreciated an easy, convenient way to get designer merchandise at a discounted rate.
I finally purchased my first item which was a "reclaimed wooden mirror." The mirror that arrived was actually a cheap resin and contained no wood. The mirror is tagged as non-returnable even though it was falsely advertised. Doens't sound like a credible company to me and I will be removing myself from their mailing list.
