As Jared mentions in his review, here's how Only NY does business (like so many typical opportuni$t boutique$, "only NY" indeed): builds hype around a limited edition "drop," opens an ordering window, accepts orders up to a specific inventory limit, sends out order confirmations with time/date stamps proving actual order priority...and then sends out cancellations after going down that order list and discriminating in favor of "VIPs" and other arbitrary biases. In this lamp example, they claimed after the fact that they sold out in "minutes," but had sent out an invitation to order ten minutes after the drop, and kept accepting orders past then. In their fake cancellation e-mails, they blamed a computer malfunction: this excuse doesn't work in anymore in 2024. We all know that their ordering platform has a specific inventory limit, and stops taking orders (down to milliseconds) upon reaching it. My cancelled order was inside of the first minute orders opened, and my confirmation e-mail was stamped at the second minute.
As many, many others mention here too, their customer service is passive-aggressive: just generic cut-and-paste damage control after days of asking and following up. These aren't cool people with a downtown spirit; they're uptown capitalist entrepreneurs. Just so you know, and...
Read moreThis is hands down the coolest store in NYC. Prove me wrong, I’ll wait….
Staff is friggin awesome and they gave us some other spots to hit up while we were in the area too! Love it when businesses share the love and these peeps gave us some insight to some cool local shops we would have NEVER found on our own!
Props to this shop for sharing the love!
The clothing we purchased was a lil expensive but the quality is hands down one of the best! I’m willing to pay the higher prices for this quality which is almost UNFOUNDED these days. I don’t care to pay $160 for a sweater that’s going to last and this one will withstand the test of time I have ZERO doubts!
Make sure you sign up for emails!!!! When we got back home, we regretted not picking up another shirt. I received an email a few days later about their 70% off sale so we went ahead and ordered a tshirt, hats, and a...
Read moreWAY over priced clothing for EXTREMELY CHEAP product. Over the years (My fault), I've spent a good chunk of $$$$ on Only NY because I liked the look of the things. I have nothing to show for all of the money I've spent over the years on this brand. When you spend over $300 on a jacket, over $50 for a T-shirt or a hat, you'd expect it to last out of the box, but instead, rips, tears, fades, breaks, ect. I could go on and on with the cheapness of this brand, it's hard to fathom.
Nothing of ONLY NY is worth the money. Absolutely nothing. You pay for designs(still not worth that money), not quality. Save your money, buy something that last and holds up more than a week or at least out of the packaging. Buy something with quality, this IS NOT the place. QUALITY does not exist in ONLY NY.
Save your time and money folks, I'd avoid this brand...
