How long did it take for them to deliver the item. My friend ordered a dress over 3 weeks ago, and they still haven't shipped it.
I just ordered something last night and got an email that it will be shipped between April 30 and May 6. Today is the 15th Chat Icon

Does it always take for them to ship and deliver?


I LOVE their sales and they always have such good selection , unlike Ruelala ( it's so limited and always sold out in my size, lol) but I really don't like the idea of waiting for something for 3 weeks or moreChat Icon

I have never ordered from Ideeli, but I know that other sites like Gilt can take a month to ship and deliver. This is because these sites often sell the item without physically having it on site. After the sale, they go back to the designer/manufacturer and place the order and only then will the designer know what to ship to ideeli/gilt/etc. So it takes a week or two for Ideeli to even get the item in after the sale ends, and then they still have to turn around and ship it back out to you.

Sometimes the sample sale site will actually have the item already, then it is shipped immediately. It depends on each sale, etc.

It usually states the estimated shipping / arrival time, which sometimes takes over 1 month. I agree, it is VERY annoying and half the time I forget what I've even ordered by the time it arrives.
