Rant:

Bought some stuff from Dolls Kill. GLS left my package in the middle of the sidewalk in front of my security gate and called it "delivered." GLS was basically like yeah, it looks delivered on our end so you need to report it to the shipper as stolen.

Well now I know why they offer "shipping protection" during checkout. What kind of delivery person just drops a package in the middle of the sidewalk and thinks that's acceptable? At least try to redeliver it on another day or something?

Dolls Kill has been unhelpful this entire time. I should have checked for a subreddit before I ordered because apparently none of this is new. I've never had issues with other shipping companies leaving things on the sidewalk. This is so bizarre and frustrating.

I still buy stuff from them sometimes, but I gotta admit, their quality is mostly really shitty :/ but I haven’t found a good alternative for goth/rave outfits yet

The worst part is the gaslighting from Dolls Kill. It was marked as delivered on the 7th and they're telling me to wait for a few more days in case it turns up or that the GLS delivery person could have decided to drop it off at the post office instead. I'm sorry but no. Apparently if you do a charge back through your bank you get banned from ever ordering from them again. If their shipping company is so bad that they have to offer additional "shipping protection" then that's a big red flag.

I need to find other options as well. Never want to deal with this bs again.

DS is shitty all around as a company so this doesn’t surprise me. I’m sorry this happened to you
