Try to Avoid
The number of chances I've taken with this business illustrates the danger of intermittent reinforcement. The first 2 vests I purchased were great, and identical to one another. The 3rd one was supposedly the same size and same type of vest, but it was about 50% bigger than the first 2 and thus ill-fitting. Unfortunately when you receive a dud from Amtify, you are in a tough position. Their policies are remarkably customer-unfriendly: you are to pay the return shipping, and you are only offered store credit for the amount you paid - not counting shipping. Let's continue. The jacket I got was alright, but it had bunch of bizarre patches on it that said "Fashion Cowboy" or whatever. I don't wear it because I am not a fashion cowboy. The deal with the trench coats...good LORD. There was initial drama about the coat that I bought being out of stock, and they offered to send me a replacement, but forgot to actually send it...anyway, I did eventually receive it and it was really good. I liked it so much I ordered another. Unfortunately, the second one they sent was lined in faux fur and was very much not the same as the first one I got. I have this eccentric habit about expecting to receive the item that is pictured on the website. I returned it, got another and it was somehow a different variant from both the first and the second. Customer service offered the explanation that they work with suppliers who replace styles with different versions. Oh the other coat I ordered, I really hate cause it has a random flap that serves no purpose. But I figured I'd just donate it. I have a lot of Amtify things to donate to charity right now. Bottom line, you must have a lot of money or be especially brave to be buying clothes without trying them out first. You can't inspect them visually, or count on the garment that ends up in your mail box to be the same as the one pictured on the site. You won't know that it fits well or that it's comfortable. And as I mentioned with Amtify's store credit and customer-footed returns, you will be punished for taking too many risks. The only reason I am giving them 2 stars instead of 1 is because the 2 vests and first trench coat I got were actually really good. I am happy to have them in my wardrobe. And it only took a combined 7 purchases and 3 returns to find 3 garments I like. Not a great rate, but I'm batting 0-for-1 with some other online retailers.
