They didn't even look like you could fit a human into them. Customer service was horrid and amazon couldn't help me out because the company only allowed for returns if you paid for it... which would have been SO EXPENSIVE.Megan @ Meg Go Runhttp://www.meggorun.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4930457134828005115.post-53691078380340810382016-06-11T12:08:25.749-04:002016-06-11T12:08:25.749-04:00WOW!

I've used NastyGal a few times and have had great experiences, though. I usually order multiple dresses at once; they arrive quickly and I return what I don't want without any hassle. I'm not sure about the others, but I have to say I was surprised to see NastyGal lumped in with the others!Ali K.https://www.blogger.com/profile/15736472530374069410noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4930457134828005115.post-28341366981963165342016-06-10T15:15:36.899-04:002016-06-10T15:15:36.899-04:00I don't order from companies like this - items...I don't order from companies like this - items that are too cheap to be reality just screams "scam" at best and credit card stealing at worst.
