I made a purchase of golden goose…

I made a purchase of golden goose sneakers on June 12, 2023, and received the order around June 20. After wearing the shoes only a few times, I noticed that the logo lettering on the back of both sneakers has fallen off. This experience has raised concerns about the quality of the item I received, as I've never encountered such an issue with other shoes from this brand. I'm also uncertain about the authenticity of the product. I kindly request a refund for my purchase. If this matter is not resolved promptly, I may need to escalate it to the relevant authorities to address potential concerns about counterfeit products. I have attached pictures of the shoes, which I have owned for just a month and a half, for your reference. Your assistance in this matter is greatly appreciated.

Dear Customer,
thanks for your review.

We are sorry for what happened with your order and we really want to apologise for that.
Unfortunately this may happen and, as we already told you by email, we are happy to contact the brand in order to understand how to solve this issue.
We really also want to make clear that all of our items are authentic and brand new. Inside the box shoe you can find also the authenticity label from the brand.

As soon as you provide us the information about the pick up, we will schedule it.

Thank you.

Legitimate business

I was initially uneasy about ordering from an overseas company I hadn’t heard of, but my ordering experience was quick & seamless. They ship via DHL and my order arrived within 2 days.
My item was as pictured and shipped with care. Thank you!

Things to note for US customers:
-they charge in euros so be sure to use a credit card with no foreign transaction fees.
-I believe any order total above $800 is subject to import fees so keep that in mind/do your due diligence

Beautiful site but VERY costly return policy

Beautiful site with great designer products, BUT A
BIG, BIG downside . A return from the USA will cost you a FORTUNE . So choose wisely and make sure you DO NOT HAVE TO RETURN.

A return from the USA to GAUDENZI BOUTIQUE in Italy is on you as shown in their policy.
UPS, DHL , etc, charge a fortune. In my case the return of a way to big pair of FENDI SANDALS would have been $285 and up.
FYI, I picked my regular size of this brand but this particular style ran very large and Gaudenzi website listing didn’t warn me.
You can’t ship by USPS - which would have been around $130 - because GAUDENZI has a 10 day return policy. Out of experience USPS takes often much longer.

Nevertheless , I shopped with Gaudenzi before and after a few email exchanges they kindly agreed to send me a shipping label which was €62. That sounded ok BUT they didn’t tell me about potential additional customs cost.

Unfortunately, GAUDENZI messed up the customs form and I ended up paying €123 customs cost ON TOP , for a total of €185 for my return. That’s is $ 207 for nothing .

Sadly , I just saw on trustpilot that Gaudenzi must have been fully aware of the potential additional customs cost. They choose to not inform me about that.

So be aware and check Gaudenzi’s return policy first.

There are may comparable high end designer boutiques in Italy , Germany, Canada which provide you conveniently with the shipping label for a flat rate of no more that € 40 like , My Theresa, Julian, Tiziana Fausti, Unger , LN-CC, SSENSE and others.

Dear customer.
We are really sorry to hear about your Feedback. We try to be as transaperent as possible with our customers, that is the reason why our return shipping policy is clearly specified on our website. We have accepted to provide you the return shipping label, which we have accepted to cover for you, but unfortunately the USA customs made us pay taxes and duties, which, as per our policy, are to be covered by the customer.
We are not an international company, therefore we cannot cover cost for returns for all our customers. Hope you understand our point of view.
Best regards,

I snagged a current season Gucci bag at much lower price than my local boutique. My item arrived in great condition in a dust bag (plus a smaller dust bag for the chain strap). There was no box, but I don't keep those anyway so I didn't mind. It took 4 days to ship from Italy to HK and FedEx sent constant email updates. I was initially suspicious because I hadn't used this company before, but a bit of research told me that this was a reputable boutique which was worth a shot.

Too many taxes and shipping costs! Forget them.

US buyers beware… I strongly discourage American customers from purchasing from GAUDENZI BOUTIQUE. They will pass on ALL TAXES AND CUSTOMS FEES TO YOU! In the case your item must be returned for whatever reason you will be charges again. For a blouse $900 they charged me $200 plus.
There are enough companies like Mytheresa and others that absorb the taxes and make returns easy. Never again ☹️

Dear Judi, thanks for the review.
As specified in our policy, in case of unjustified refusal like yours (this was not a classic return), we must deduct from the refund all the additional cost substained including shipping cost an duties. We have tried to help you by offering to split the duties payment at the moment of the delivery, however you have decided to return it back to us, and unfortunately this is a policy all our customers have to follow.
We hope in the future to provide free returns, but for the moment we cannot.
Hope you can understand

Watch out for this website

Watch out for this website! They don’t provide return shipping labels that mean you will be charged over one hundred for sending back an order ( in addition to the initial shipping cost )you don’t like. In addition to that, they charged $200 more for the fees of restocking. It is a scam! Very bad experience! Do not buy anything from this company!

Hi dear customer, thanks for the review. Unfortunately the fact that we do not provide labels is clearly specified in our shipping policy. We let customers free to find the best solution, for example you can also use local posts that we know are much more convenient.
We hope in the future to have the possibility to provide free returns.

Unclear refund calculations

I returned my order but only received 80% of the refund. I checked further with their customer service, not only were they not apologetic about the incident, they claimed the difference in refund arouse from shipping cost (which is non-refundable) and custom charges. After questioning further, they insisted that customers are responsible for any custom charges for when the goods are returned to their origin, which is unheard of from any other online shopping platforms. Moreover, other than shipping and custom charges, they were not able to explain part of the discrepancy. Overall I had to pay for 20% of the order for nothing.

Thanks for the review, the customer care dpt has already clearly explained you our return policy. Our prices do not include custom and duties, following EU legislation we must pay duties for all the packages we receive from outiside. We know that other boutique may provide free returns, but this is not our case.
We have explained you the detail of the refund and also the amount substained and paid to the custom.
For any doubt please read our policy:
