After waiting several weeks for my order, I received a flimsy envelope in the mail. I found three torn boxes inside, each containing a cellophane wrapped organizer that I had hoped to give as gifts. Because of the torn boxes and cellophane packaging, I opened the package to see what I paid $10.00 per item for. Sure enough, they are cheaply made of some sort of fabric that resembles something much thinner than fiber board, not even as "nice" as something one would find at the Dollar Store. I would be surprised if the useful life of the product exceeded a couple of months. These products were ordered through Brad's Deals, a site I have used for quite a long time, and previously thought it was a site that vetted the products it represents. Now I will be more wary of the site, and certainly will not order anything again from Stay Trendy.
11/25/14 at 9:37P.M. I placed an order for a "Clip on Strainer" and 11/25/14 at 9:52P.M. placed another order for 2-Pack: 3-in1 Avocado Slicer.
Today is 01/27/15 more than two months later and after much correspondence instructing me to track the orders because they can't, I still haven't received my orders so today requested a credit back to my credit card for the last of the two orders.
Two mo. after the orders and re-orders; much time and effort expanded telling me to do their job tracking the orders; and days researching to try to even find a way to contact them, I have decided they are totally inept at running a business or are intentionally scamming customers.
Now the web page is gone and the trail leads to an empty dead-end. Thank goodness I didn't spend much money.
Nobody should get caught up in the mess I ended up in over a total purchase of $24.00. I really did want the gadgets I ordered for Christmas Stocking stuffers, but that didn't happen.
We ordered a comforter set from Stay Trendy at the end of June 2014. They shipped us the wrong color. We contacted them via email to ask if they would send the right color.
They did not respond immediately, so we decided we wanted to just return the incorrect item for a full refund. Stay Trendy told us "no problem" and emailed us a pre-paid return label to use.
We affixed the label, sent the package, only to have it returned back to us. When we contacted Stay Trendy again, they said to mail it again that there would be no problem. We mailed it - it was returned to us, postage due. We took the package to the post office who told us there was indeed postage due. We explained that the merchant told us this was a pre-paid label. The postal worker said they would send it but if it is returned to us again to not come back there (ha, ha).
Well lo and behold the package was returned to us-again. We sent it out again. This time we paid the postage. Guess what? It was returned to us again.
We contacted Stay Trendy again to ask for a full refund inclusive of inital shipping and this additional shipping. We requested the refund be paid to our method of payment. We were told they were "not currently set up to to that" but they could mail us a check. We asked to speak with someone or for a number to call to have our refund processed. We were told they were also "not currently set up to do that".
We gave them our name and address. No check. Numerous e-mails no check. Follow up emails. We were asked to verify our information again. No check. We were asked what order this was - again. No check. As recently as today we verified our address again.
$67.00 for item. $8.00 for shipping $8.95 for our return shipping. Total: 83.95. Principal involved and getting Stay Trendy to do the right thing for everyone? Priceless.
So, 40+ e-mails and much frustration later, from June to January...we are filing this report.

I had ordered a msytery box from stay trendy. Order # 37703.
They said the package was delivered but it wasnt. I sent them follow up emails but no response. I feel cheated, looks like i lost my money.
