    Who's bought from Ezibuy?

    Well, I've sorted out my groceries from home, but my friend brought over some Ezibuy catalogues the other day, and I got all interested, there's some nice stuff there!

    I'm interested to know who has shopped from there, and what you think!

    I'm so attracted to the thought of doing clothes shopping from home, instead of having 30 mins to go through each shop in a shopping centre to find something I like...

    I havent bought from there, but I know someone who used to work for the company.
    She said some of the clothing is nice, but the sizing is all over the palce and each brand is different. There was only one shed recommend and its an older, less trendy more pricey one.
    She did say the shoes were good.

    Hey Nelle,

    Yep I've been buying from Ezibuy for years now. Even back when it used to be called Myer Direct ha ha.

    It can be hit and miss, you really have to look at the photos (the website is good as you can zoom in) and read the descriptions of what the fabric is (tip - don't buy anything 100% cotton as it will stretch all out of shape!).
    They have sales a LOT and often send random discount codes, free postage codes etc. I usually do a google search before a purchase if I don't have a code myself. Just this Saturday I ordered a dress using a code for $20 off a purchase of $75 or more.
    If you register with them (free) online you will get the emails.

    As for the 'brands' - I like Grace Hill for office clothes. Sizing is usually pretty good. It is a little more pricey but I tend to just buy stuff when it's on sale. Emerge and Urban are the younger brands. Emerge has heaps of cheap dresses but I've never found the quality to be too great.
    Capture is a slightly more 'mature' brand but has good basics.

    I've always found the customer service to be great, never had a problem. Normally I'll wait until I want to buy a few things at once (postage is a flat $9.95, there's an express option too). Keep in mind that you can return items that you don't want (obviously with all tags still attached etc) but you do need to cover the postage yourself. You'll get a full refund of the purchase price.

    Anyway I've gone on long enough - I'm a big internet shopper so I do love Ezibuy!!

    I always buy from Ezibuy too. I love it. The sizes are pretty generous and you can return stuff easily if you don't like it or it doesn't fit.

    Ive been wanting to try it myself but was hesitant as i have bigger boobs so stuff tends not to fit but knowing you can return it if it doesnt fit or doesnt look right is a huge push for me to try it!!

    I've bought quite alot from them over the years, generally usually happy with what I've got. As already said, the sizes are generally roomy - I;ve a size small jumper from them when I normally would wear a medium. The quality is usually good, but recently I got two long sleeve tshirts which stretched horribly out of shape the first wash - they were only $8ea but I still am annoyed about it.

    Yep, i used to buy alot from them but only buy gifts and homewares now. They are ok if you need some basics but as mentioned already, it can be hit or miss. Y ou need to learn what the different brands are. Urban is not worth it. its designed for teens - sizing is small and quality poor.
    Grace hill stuff is good but its more suited to mature tastes .
    depends what your after really, but it is convenient if you cant get to shops very easy or often.

    DW has bought from them before. Not sure what her opinion of the clothes were, but I remember they were very easy to get on with when we needed to change some stuff for a different size, although it did take a while for the new clothes to come. They kept us updated regularly while we waited for them though, with emails and phone calls.

    I buy from them heaps....easy to exchange if you get the wrong size or even if you just don't like it when it arrives. Sometime if i think something is going to be popular and I am not sure of size i have been known to get one of each size and send the wrong on back just in case they go out of stock in the meantime.....they are very very easy to deal with......

    I have to say I love their D cup bathers in summer...cos normal bikinis just don't do the job for me!!

    I LOVE ezibuy.....like you i love the idea of buying from home....trying them on at home etc. There sales are great too.
    Ive bought heaps of sheets and bedding from them over the years...infact last night i splurged and bought 3 tops that i will hopefully fit into (post baby tummy still here.).

    Get a catalogue delivered to you - it costs nothing to join.....my DH gets scared when a ezibuy catalogue arrives in the mail......

    I havnt bought anything for a while from there, and like the others have said, its a bit hit and miss sometime with what you get.

    Once you havnt bought a few things you do work out what size does suit you, its its fitted or make from stretchy material etc.

    They always have such lovely things for christmas time when that catalogue comes out.

    I have brought some excellent stuff from them over the years too - I have these trousers that I just adore and buy some every winter. I have brought a pure wool pea coat a few years back and I love it. Granted yes, that some of the cotton T's do shrink a lot, but I find that happens with stuff you buy in a shop anyway. I can't fault the quality either. I don't buy shoes or underwear from them cause I prefer to buy them in person (big boobs and atrocious feet) but their sheets are gorgeous as well.
