Do not order scrubs from scrubland beyond.com

Public service announcement to all my healthcare worker associates:

DO NOT order anything from scrubsandbeyond.com !!!! They completely ripped me off. I paid extra money for my items to be shipped same day and received the 2nd day. I will be starting a new job on Monday and need a specific color scrub set for each day of the week. Shopping online is really the only option because scrub stores are expensive, few and far between and there's no guarantee they will have the specific colors needed in stock. The shipping I paid $11 extra for stated that if you order before 11am, your order will ship same day and you will receive your order the next business day. I placed my order on Monday after 1pm. So I expected my order to arrive yesterday, (Wednesday). When it did not, I checked online and my order has not even shipped yet!! Here it is Thursday and they haven't been shipped. I called customer service and they told me I MIGHT receive it Monday, which is TOO LATE! They won't give me a refund until I receive them, ship them back, and wait for processing. So NOW, I have to somehow find time to shop for 4 sets of specific color scrubs which will cost me hundreds of dollars in addition to the money already taken from me by scrubs and beyond. And I say "somehow find the time" because I have plans to go out of state camping all weekend. I'm more than just a little ticked off about this!

I would say if you need a certain color ASAP, try to hit up Walmart, Burlington Coat Factory, or Forman Mills. I can usually find a cheap decent pair at one of those places for long enough to hold me over until I can get the ones I actually need.

It really sucks when websites don't hold up to their promises. And it sucks even more when people have to tear you down just for throwing out a heads-up.

I wouldn't say to NEVER order from there, but I would definitely be cautious about it in the future. Amazon is EXCELLENT for their shipping. You always get it when they say you'll get it. And you can sign up for a 30-day free trial for Prime and get free 2-day shipping.

Good luck on your new job!

Also, if you have Amazon Prime and you dont receive your item by the guaranteed delivery date, you will be given 1 month of Prime for free. If you DON'T have prime, they refund your shipping costs.

I had to order from them last minute a couple of weeks ago and I received mine on time. I had gone to their store and they did not have the color I needed. I had driven to another scrub shop and I ordered from them. This was a mom and pop scrub store. They waited a week and on the day my scrubs were supposed to arrive, they texted me to tell me they could not get them in. I was not happy with this shop as I needed them for clinical the following Tuesday and this was Friday afternoon!! So I had to order from scrubsandbeyond online Friday afternoon. I paid $35 for overnight shipping and even though I was passed the 2pmCT timeframe, they were shipped out Friday overnighted and I received at 10am Monday morning.

I love them!!!

OP, if you only paid $11 that was not next day shipping. I think that is where the mistake was. When I needed mine quickly, I had to pay $35 for the overnight shipping. It was just last month. I was upset that I had to pay that much because I should not have had to. That other store waited too long to tell me I could not get my scrubs from them. But that is where I think the miscommunication may have happened with them.

Things like this can happen. Looks like you ordered too close to the time of when you would need them. I can recommend Amazon for fast shipping!

Careful, OC, you're sparring with a thread killer.

Sounds like some of you don't have ANYTHING nice to say. Wow. If you're that miserable and grouchy I would suggest not post anything! OP just wants to alert all of us!

I can't believe the number of people who are on here just being jerks. Regardless of whether you think the OP is saying anything of value, a platform of this type is 'take it or leave it' information. She's just alerting those that might care that she had a bad experience. If you don't care or you think she went about it all wrong then leave it be. The condescending tone and nit-picking seems to unnecessary.

Seriously people, sometimes we live in areas where there are no stores that sell what you need hence the convience of the internet. Why be rude she was just informing others of her experience. Take it or leave it!!

I had an interview on Tuesday, I tried on my suit on Sunday. I don't live in a big town (think country). The suit didn't fit. Thankfully there are a few big stores here but the next big town with a mall is an hour away. If none of the stores had anything I would've had to go to the mall. That's what I get for trying on my suit last minute. Same thing with her. By the way, there are no scrub stores here either. But I know better than to buy anything last minute.
