I ordered a jacket from their website Bigmommathang.bigcartel.com and I received no information on if the item was even sent. After about a week and after emailing the site, I received a tracking number. I asked them about how long will shipping take? They proceeded to tell me (with an attitude) why they do not add shipping in addition to the item prices and that their website states there is no guarantee on when the shipment arrives, when I simply asked how long does the order to take to process. 

After a few times of going back and forth and countless times of telling them to speak to me like a person I started to get really annoyed. A month passed by and tracking number says that only a label was created so I proceeded to email them again. This time I asked about where the shipment was coming from. She told me it was coming from Barcelona, Spain. I eventually found out that was a lie, but I'll get to that shortly. She called my item a dress a few times which made me realize something was fishy. 

2 months passed by so at this point it's late December, still no jacket. USPS website still says shipping label created. The Holiday season of course slows down all shipment. When I emailed the Big Momma Thang for the first time in a little over a month they told me it was probably "Customs and the Chinese New Year". I thought it came from Barcelona? No wonder they avoided the question for so long. Literally 3 days later the jacket finally arrived (had to pick it up from the post office-USPS fault) the package had stamps from China all on it.

It was a size bigger than what I ordered and to top it all off it had no belt. Hmm.. I bought the jacket solely because I wanted a more fashionable alternative to a trench. What's a trench without a belt? I emailed them and this is the exact response I was given: "We can offer you a 20% discount in your next purchase wit us, but we cannot give you a solution after 3 months." Isn't that the most bogus bs you ever heard? They are the reason it took 3 months! I didn't ask for a discount, a refund, or anything of that sort, I asked for them to mail me the belt.

And that was the solution: NONE. Do not purchase anything from these people. They lack ethics, business etiquette and most of all they do not realize the Customer is Always Right. False advertising... I ordered the jacket because the photo on their website showed a belt. All 4 pictures. Not to forget to add: The photo they used on their website of a celebrity wearing this jacket, I researched and found that she never wore it. A fashion blogger confirmed that it was some type of photoshop. How efficient? 

Do yourself a favor and stick to what you know and trust. Big Momma Thang is not a "boutique" you'd want to use. You might regret it when you look at yourself in the mirror.

I am also a victim of Big Momma Thang Shop!

AUTHOR: mashvf - (France)

POSTED: Saturday, October 03, 2015

it's been almost 2 weeks since I ordered a jacket at Big Momma Thang Shop and noone ever responded to me. They took my money from Paypal account immediately, but I got only one responce: saying that they received my order and money transfer and that I will be contacted soon for any further information. After that responce, I emailed them 3 times already asking to finally contact me for ANY update they have, but they never did. Then, I found all these bad reviews and got concerned. 

Since you are also a victim of Big Momma Thang Shop, maybe you could help me find any solution to what do I do now? Do I contact my bank and ask them for help? I've read other reports, and some people did receive the clothes, although they were fake or not very good looking. Do you think I might receive the jacket too?

My email is: ******************

#3 REBUTTAL Owner of company

I am the founder of Big Momma Thang Shop

AUTHOR: Big Momma Thang shop Team - ()

POSTED: Thursday, November 13, 2014

I am the founder of Big Momma Thang Shop: I'm tired of the nonsense and boredom of the same person making these comments, which is coincidentally another store. If you read between the lines of comments, you can see perfectly well that nothing has value. I'll write one by one all the falsehoods of these comments:

1. Not having a domain means a store worse? Of course not, but thankfully we have domain is www.bigmommathang.com

2. We do not accept payment by credit card so I do not know how this person says he paid his way.

3. Big Cartel is not a free domain, since each month is paid and is a company that only lets put photos copyrighted own.

4. We are not based in USA, we're based in Europe, but we do ship all over the world.

5. Our sales department always answer emails within 24 hours, always you can prove this.

6. My team has investigated and in that time we have never had a jacket with belt.

7. We will not offer discounts as high because our percentage of profit is very low, is for this that we have the best prices in our fashion category.

8. I do not understand the part that we use photoshop, you want to make people understand that we've done photoshop with a celebrity putting an item of our store? ok, for that I have to laugh, sorry.

9. Coincidence that the two bad reviews waiting months for your order to arrive, why you do not put the order number for anyone can believe you?

If anyone has any questions or concerns of these fake reviews you can find us on Instagram @bigmommathangshop to see all lots of photos of customers and do collaborations with famous bloggers, you also can contact us by mail (I can't put the address here as are the rules of this community, but in our website you can mail us directly, DM us on Instagram if you prefer).

If you  put these comments think you'll sell more in your store, do not think so, I make known to you that we have hundreds and hundreds of sales a month and everything can not always be perfect, but from our various departments in the case of any problem always solve things positively because we love fashion and the main thing for us is our clients, not like you only think about money, but for the poor mind people that will never exist. With these fake reviews, I understand, we have grown from a small business to another level, because when one becomes famous rabid and envious people usually do these things.

Big momma thang is a scam

AUTHOR: Lm490 - ()

POSTED: Tuesday, November 04, 2014

i agree with the initial complaint, big momma thang is a scam beware of this site. I ordered something from them and it never arrived for months and when I tried to contact them no one answered. I disputed them through my credit card and got my money back! Another thing is that they don't have a real domain, they are under a domain called "big cartel" which means they can put stolen pictures from other sites for anything and advertise on this free domain site. Beware of this sit!!

Sideoff report

AUTHOR: Caroline21 - ()

POSTED: Tuesday, May 13, 2014

This report is out of place since I bought in this shop 3 times and haven't had any problems with the above. If shipments take a while, but I see normal as are free shipping. No where it came from the store and if I like the clothes that I don't care wherever it comes. I have seen the same clothes in other stores here in the US for 3 times more expensive price. I met this store through the social network Instagram and make my first purchase because had many followers and many pictures of satisfied customers. In my reply I show that this report is false and must be a person with such a store selling the same things more expensive. People are ready and you cann't cheat!
