Anyone have experience with Overstock.com?

edited May 2021 in Off-Topic
Looking at a piece of art for home. Also available online from Walmart and Home Depot. Last two are 30% higher. Item is quite heavy & breakable. Hate to pay more than necessary. But the last two have local B&M outlets that would accept & refund should there be a problem. Never used OS. The online reviews look dismal.

  • It's been a few years but I had no problems with them.
  • Never. (Resigned in Aug, 2019, however.)

  • I've purchased items via Overstock.com several years ago without issue.
    I haven't used them recently so I'm not familiar with their current operations.

    Thanks for the insights …

    Located the same item on Wayfair for a few dollars over Overstock’s asking price and just placed the order. Not familiar with Wayfair, but the reviews sound a lot better.

    For comparison:

    Walmart $137
    Home Depot $131
    Wayfair $108
    Overstock $99

    @Crash - That was an enlightening article on OS you linked. Thanks. That former CEO reminds me of the TV "pillow guy." Some of these big corporate guys are real low life.
