Oodies

After all the gushing reviews on MN, I ordered an oodie on 26th November for a family members Christmas present.

I received an email on the 30th to say it had been dispatched using Royal Mail 48hr service.

The tracking says that RM are still waiting to receive the item.

I've emailed them to find out what is happening, only to be told that I have to wait 14 working days to get a response!

Looks like I won't have the gift in time for Christmas then.

So, aibu to think oodie.com is shit?

That's a pity.
I found a couple of sellers on eBay selling customer returns, slight seconds and overstock at a fraction of the price; seem absolutely fine and arrived very quickly.

I ordered one on 21st November, and it got delivered on 4th December.

2 weeks delivery with no advance warning wasn’t great…

I ordered on 9th November, still nothing other than generic delay emails, can't get an actual response from anyone

They are a bit shit I ordered one two years ago which did arrive eventually and also ordered a kids one this year mid November which arrived recently.

I would say that the quality of the oodies makes up for the rubbish delays and customer service though, hence going back for another this year! I did buy other versions last year but they just weren’t the same.

Think I got lucky 😳
I ordered one a on 11/11 when they were reduced to £36.
Had dispatch email on 14/11 and it was delivered by Royal Mail on 16/11!

I also have ordered one for my daughter back in November after I saw a link on here saying they have a black Friday sale on and I'm also still waiting for it. Its meant to be one of her Christmas presents so I'm hoping it comes in time. It's making me a bit reassured that others are still waiting too so I know it's not just that it has got lost or something. Does anyone know why they are taking so long to come?

Order one from Kudd.ly it'll be here by Saturday, extremely quick delivery and send the Oodie back.

Similar happened with Oodie I should have said!

Similar happened to me last Christmas.

I panic bought three hoodie blankets from Online Home Shop, they were about a tenner each and they were fantastic. Arrived within 48 hours. I ended up buying myself a couple and they're holding up brilliantly. Buy the extra long teddy ones, they're almost ankle length and the material washes brilliantly.

My flat is literally freezing. I ordered an Oodie and then realised it's probably going to be summer by the time the bloody thing arrives.
