I've never even noticed their existence but a catalogue was delivered yesterday and there are one or 2 dresses that I like.
It seems a simple way to shop, but what is the quality like? Cheap and nasty or about equivalent to Target? (or is that the same thing?)

I hate clothes shopping, so if I could get away with some of the less dowdy things in their range, it might be useful.

Oh this is a link in case you've no idea what I'm talking bout.

Hi

I have bought a few items over the last couple of years... Some of these I have kept, others I have sent back - usually due to sizing and fit.

I guess it depends on the item, a few months back I bought a really nice black strapless cocktail type dress which fit perfectly, things like jackets are usually too big (I am a size 8 and some of the jacket sizings are for small but still too big). This week I bought another black wrap type dress which arrived on Friday - I think I will be sending that back too as the material is quite see-through and the armholes are a bit gapey - that was a size small.

I probably will still try my luck in the future and it is nice to know that if you wore your outfit from ezibuy somewhere there is a slim chance that somone will have the same one on.

Give it a go, you can always get your money back which is great!

I buy alot of stuff from them, ranging from clothing to homewares and christmas decos. Iv found them to be great quality and most of the clothing is in Myer. Like pp said you can always send it back if it doesnt fit/suit you.

I've recently discovered Ezibuy too and I think it's great. Of course, some things don't fit for various reasons but the returns process is really easy and you need to expect that things wouldn't fit, just like when you take a stack of clothes into the changerooms in an actual store. I think the quality is very good for everything that I've bought. It's also worthwhile signing up to the e-newsletter because they send through some very good deals.

I buy a bit from Ezibuy. I find the sizings in their Capture range to be large-ish and some of it is pretty cheap and nasty looking IMO. And it's hard to tell what is c & n from the catalogue.

I love their Grace Hill range though.

Gosh, I read a blog the other day that had 20 days of Ezibuy and gosh there were some gorgeous outfits. I really never rated Ezibuy at all but changed my mind after reading this particular blog.

Will try and hunt it down.

This is a favourite blog of mine and it recently won a blog award of some sort Tounge1.gif

I've bought a few things from Ezibuy a number of years ago now and the quality was great. A pair of jeans that I bought were worn ALL the time and still looked like new...in fact, if I could still fit into the buggers I would still be wearing them. I've kept them in case I ever get back down to a small size 10, wishful thinking laughing2.gif

My mum buys a lot of stuff from them and has always been happy with the quality. Sometimes things don't fit, but returning them is simple.

I love Ezibuy and have been a member for years. Great quality clothes, you just have to be careful when buying and follow their size/measurement guides carefully. As shaunthesheep said some of their Capture range is a bit cheapish (i.e the material used) but it always tells you the material used so I just tend to stay away from them.

If you sign up to their newsletter online you also get emails when they have specials on like free delivery etc.

For things like t shirts etc. they are awesome - good quality and long enough that your belly need not be on show. I think the quality is good.

I used to love ezibuying.... sigh. stupid mortgage.

I too would have to agree that the Capture range is 'cheapish' it is also on the larger size. I normally am a size 12 but in Capture I need a 10.

The Grace Hill range is very nice though.

I have done some Christmas shopping with them this year and all has arrived very quick and very well packaged.

I bought 3 things recently and was pleasantly surprised. All fit well and prices were good. I would buy stuff from there again.

I've bought a ton of stuff there, ended up returning half of it due to incorrect fit, but they have fab a great returns policy. I always wait until I get an offer code in my email before shopping. If only they could get their sizing consistent!

I would rate the quality to be average... they are one season garments.

I've been buying stuff off them for about 18 months now and have generally been happy with the quality. I tend to stick with the Capture range as the other ranges are pricey or not my style. Their specials are quite heavily discounted so you can really get some bargains especially if you get out of season clothes from their clearance section.

Cali, did you end up buying anything?

I have been buying from Ezibuy for over 10 years, never had an issue with them. I also love the Grace Hill range.

I buy most of my clothes there! But Ezibuy is a NZ store that has come online!
I go home most Christmas and go to the big outlet shops of Ezibuy in Auckland and go mad! You can get huge savings at the outlet shops!!
I totally recommend ezibuy! Online it seems a bit more expensive than the shop!

If you feeling rich max fashions has come to Australia online as well there clothes a very well made!

I have used ezibuy and i found it awful. Their measurements on their site were not exact and the clothes tend to shrink. sad.gif I bought $200 of clothes off of the site and only 2 items fit. I wanted a return but they refused as it was my problem as i was too tall!

NOT HAPPY JAN!

Don't believe the reviews though ! I bought a dress that was described as being viscose. Cool, I thought - should fall nicely, maybe wash and wear. It had one really good review, so I ordered it. Well, it certainly wasn't viscose - or any sort of viscose I have ever come across. It was a stretch jersey - T Shirt material. I returned it, and wrote a review along the lines of the fabric being more of a stretch jersey rather than a viscose. Well my review didn't get published, but within a day of sending my review, another review popped up singing the praises of the fabric, how wonderful it fell, and fit. sick.gif So their reviews aren't completely honest - take them with a grain of salt original.gif

Ezibuy bought the old Myer direct years ago.

I agree Capture can be a bit hit and miss. I am wearing a Capture t-shirt at the moment but I have some others that I am having to throw out after about half a dozen washes as they have stretched beyond belief.

I like it - I buy things on sale - also I am on the larger sizer and like their Sara range - they actually stock in DJ's so it is good quality, They also have good lingerie section with big brand names like Triumph and Fayreform etc - good value when on sale. I love the look of thegrace hill range but am just a size to big -
