GoFavor.com review - Neutral

After watching a couple of good reviews on youtube for this website that sells cute jewelry, I thought it'd be a great idea to order from them. This website is of course, http://www.gofavor.com/

I browsed the site a long time before I could decide on what I wanted. There was a lot of choice and everything looked good to me. After I included everything I liked the most, the cart was at 70$. I couldn't afford it so I reduced it to 7 items for 30$ with free shipping. That seemed very decent for the items I had ordered.

Shipping took almost a month. It had tracking but it began to work only after a week or 2. I think my package needed to be in Canada in order to make the tracking number work. The shipping was free so I can't really complain that it took long. Anyways, there was a 3 days delay due to an error from Canada post and that is not their fault at all.

So this morning I got a really small box in the mail. I was surprised that everything could fit in that tiny box! I don't have any pictures, but it was around 15 cm long and maybe 10 in height. There was bubble wrap around the pieces and everything was packaged individually in plastic bags. But plastic bags can't protect anything in my opinion.

Before receiving my package, I had researched on the website a bit more, and what I found made me fear that my things would all be crap. The good reviews are from youtubers that received the items for free with a fast shipping. When dealing with regular customer, they seem to be way less careful!

Anyways, so here is what I got. I'll be comparing the website pictures with my own pictures so you can see the items that were true to the photo and the ones that weren't at all!

The first item I got is a rhine stone bear with crown necklace. It seems to be a replica from Juicy Couture.

Despite it not being the same as the picture, it looks pretty cute. There's a stone misplaced on the nose, but I think I may break it and glue it back in the correct position.



The next item I got  is the vintage pumpkin carriage necklace.

Well this one arrived broken. It is easy to fix, but still... the quality is awful. It doesn't look like the picture at all. The details are messy and the gold is more of an antique one. The wheels are really uneven and there's no rhinestones at all on them! I'm very disappointed in this item that was almost 5$, which is a lot on this website. I know you get what you pay for, but I can find better jewelry at the dollar shop honestly.


The third item I got was a vintage headset necklace.

I really like this item. It is way bigger than I expected but the quality is satisfying. It has some flaws, but overall it looks great! The chain is very long and the headphones are pretty heavy. It looks almost exactly like the website's picture.


The fourth item I got is a little bow ring, in the pink colourway.

When I pulled this ring out of the plastic bag I noticed the flaws (small stains and pink bleeding on the silver) and thought I wouldn't like it, but when I put it on I found it looked very good. From afar it looks simply adorable. I wore it all day at work and it didn't break so I would say it is really study. I lift heavy frames at my work and I'm happy this ring survived the ride. The only thing I can complain about is the fact that the rhinestone isn't pink like on the picture.


The fifth item I ordered is an 'angel egg' cocktail ring.

I had high expectations for this ring because of the beautiful pictures on the website. I'm very disappointed since the ring looks nothing like the picture in real life. And yes, the yellow on my close-up is not the reflect of the cupcakes, it's really yellow! There are a lot of yellow stains because there is silver paint missing! The ring is in one piece and not separated in the middle like it shows on the picture. The wings on the egg are not defined and it honestly looks horrible from close. I regret buying this, especially for 4$! There are tons of cute rings selling for less than this in local stores.

The sixth item I got was cat head ring with a crown and a tangling heart.

This one turned out good. While there are still many flaws compared to the website's picture, I still really like it. It looks good put on. It is a bit big because of the tangling heart so I won't wear it for work, I don't want to break it.


Finally, the last item I got was a crown ring.

Score: 2/5
While it looks cute and all. It is not similar to the website's picture. Instead of a bright gold, it is an antique gold. There are details on it, while the official pictures states that there shouldn't be any engraving around the crown. Extra details can be cool sometimes, but these are not done well. The thing that made me give it a bad score is the fact that it hurts when you put it on. The inside is not polished and it scratches a lot. I don't think I'll be able to ever wear it comfortably.


So overall I'm not very satisfied with my order. I payed 30$ and I don't feel like I got what I paid for. I know these can,t be top quality because for the cheap price (from 2 to 5$), but like I said earlier, I can find better at the dollar shop for some of them. At least, the 3-4 that I like will be worn a lot, I'm sure of it. That being said, don't bother trusting the youtube reviews, they are biased because of the fact that they wanted a good review and were very careful with the items they sent the reviewers.

Final score: 3/5
The website is definitely a hit or miss. I don,t think I will order from there again, but I wouldn't say not to order either. It really depends on which item you want.
