Fashion Fabrics Club



Looking for oil cloth, I went to my favorite fabric spot for specialty fabrics, fabric.com and was a little disappointed in the search.  I did find a few but the selection left me unfulfilled.  The ones I really wanted required that I buy 3, 4 yards minimum.

No way!  I continued to search, and thus happened upon Fashion Fabrics Club and found a huge selection of oil cloth.  I wanted a variety of colors without investing in a full yard, or investing too much.  They also go by the name Denver Fabric Company.

I decided to give them a chance.  Here is my review!  

Prices.

A lot of sales.  I get plenty of emails about their sales.  The price for oil cloth was fairly cheap.  

Site navigation.

The site is hard to navigate.  Every time I went from cart review, then back to shopping, the search default took me back to the homepage. I query "oil cloth" and scissors displayed.  The site is constant having run time errors.

Cashing out.

I do not like the cash out system because they do not offer PayPal.  Being a new customer, I was a little reluctant to follow through, but I gave in.  This time. Please add PayPal.

Shipping.

Free shipping with a $70 purchase...ack!  I did not even come close to reaching that arena.  There is a 7-14 day processing/shipping time.  After eight days, I flagged customer service wondering where the heck was my shipping confirmation. They gave me some song and dance that I should check my spam folder...blah blah. That was Monday.  I thought FedEx was the only courier.  The package finally delivered to the post office and like a snail, it finally arrived today.

Oil Cloth Haul, 6 pieces!  Goal: Wellies and Slickers!

Verdict.

I would consider shopping on their site again.  I now know that things move slow.  As long as they deliver and there is no drama with my order, like missing items, we can do business.  Why not?  My go-to is JoAnn Fabric, and their warehouse sucks!  There is always a missing or lost item.  But because of JoAnn's customer service is so gracious, I continue to shop online.  The break-up is always dependent on customer service.
