Great shoes, very stylish and comfortable. Customer service was helpful when I needed to change the size. Delivery was slightly slower than expected, but overall a positive experience.

How this company uses Trustpilot
See how their reviews and ratings are sourced, scored, and moderated.
In response to the company "reassuring" me they are not based in the Netherlands, their contact address and phone number are in the Netherlands. I was misled.
This company portrays itself as a Western supplier out of the Netherlands, but in fact has no effective system for returns - the cost was ridiculous and my return has now been stuck in China customs for weeks. Their customer service people keep saying they understand my frustration! I am about to make consumer complaints in the Netherlands and Australia. Lesson learned, never again!

Hi Heather,
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re truly sorry to hear about your experience, and we completely understand how frustrating it can be when a return takes longer than expected.
We want to reassure you that we are not a Netherlands‑based retailer, and we do not claim to operate a returns facility there. Our logistics network uses international forwarding hubs, which is why a local address may appear on the parcel, but all returns are processed through our official warehouse in China. This setup allows us to ship globally and keep prices accessible for customers worldwide.
We understand that customs delays can be inconvenient, and we sincerely apologize for the time this has taken. Our team continues to monitor the situation closely, and we are committed to ensuring your return is processed as soon as it clears.
Your feedback is extremely valuable to us, and we will use it to improve our communication and return procedures moving forward. We appreciate you bringing this to our attention and giving us the opportunity to do better.
If you need any further updates or assistance, we’re here to help.
Kind regards,
Sandstone Boutique
Sandstone Boutique - Low quality - return policy a lie.
I have acknowledged your reply.
I have sent the tracking number several times to both Kane and Sarah.
It has been months of waiting and emails. Australia Post has informed me that the package was delivered to it's final destination and 1 email from your customer support informed me it had arrived but then then the next email's stated it has not arrived. This has been back and forth for months now.
This is not acceptable.
When we purchase you state easy refund policy but this is not the case.
Sandstone Boutique - I purchased 2 pairs of shoes. I 1st contacted the customer support team a number of times to ask about 1. Quality 2. Shipping 3. Return policies. Both Jane and Sarah were prompt with their replies. Once the shoes (not cheap) arrived after 5 weeks the quality was disgraceful. I asked to send me the return address, instead they kept offering me deals to keep the shoes after several emails back and forth they agreed and sent me the return address stating my money would be returned in full. It has now been nearly 3 months (in total) and approximately 16+ emails latter. I was informed on the 18th Feb (by sandstone), they cleared customs, picked up by the courier and on the way to their warehouse. I checked with Australia Post who informed me they had already been received by the final destination. Now sandstone boutique are saying the shoes are being held up in customs 🤔 WT.. (China) hoping I will give up and they can keep my $150 AUD. For me, it is of course the money, but, also principle. Please do not buy these shoes, they are cheap, low grade quality and their return policy is a LIE. Shoes like they are selling can be purchased from temu or shien for $10 AUD or less. Please believe me DO NOT PURCHASE THIS RUBBISH. They seriously are a scam. The reviews that are positive are obviously people with a very different view than me on quality or being paid to put up a positive review. The only positive is they do reply to my emails, not truthfully but they do reply. 🥱😱🙏🏻

A company that is best avoided
A company that is best avoided. I received a pair of sandals which looked like only very distant cousins to the item pictured for sale on the Sandstone Boutique website (cheap, plasticky cousins) and was told that because the shoes were still functional (they were still shoes, even if they didn't look like the pictures), I wasn't eligible for a refund. The customer service resolution was quick (as though there was a template for complaints ready to go) but wildly unsatisfactory. I would avoid this company like the plague. There's no way they could operate in Australia (as the website suggests) with business practices like this. Drop kicks who drop ship.

Hi Saskia,
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re truly sorry to hear that the sandals did not meet your expectations. We completely understand how disappointing that can be.
We would like to clarify that we **did ship the correct item** based on what was selected at checkout. However, we also understand that sometimes the look or feel of a product may not match what a customer personally expected, especially given the price point.
Regarding your refund request, we did offer you a **partial refund** as an alternative solution, but we did not receive a valid response from you to proceed. Our **Refund Policy**, which is available on our website and agreed to at checkout, explains that full refunds require returning the item to our overseas warehouse. The partial refund option is simply provided to help customers avoid the cost and inconvenience of international returns.
We genuinely appreciate your feedback, even though your experience was not what you hoped for. Comments like yours help us improve our product selection, quality control, and overall service for customers worldwide.
Thank you again for sharing your thoughts, we will use this to continue improving as a company.
Kind regards,
Sandstone Boutique

Hi Sammy,
We're truly sorry to hear about the frustration you’re experiencing, and we're sincerely apologize for the inconvenience this return process has caused you. We understand how upsetting this situation must feel, and we want to assure you that we are not refusing your return in any way.
To clarify, our return policy, which was accepted at checkout, states that customers are responsible for sending the item back to our warehouse at their own cost. This policy is publicly available on our website and applies to all returns.
Regarding the paperwork requested by your courier, we have already escalated this to our supplier, as they handle the technical documentation for inbound packages. We have not encountered this issue with other customers before, which is why we are coordinating closely with them to provide the exact information your courier needs.
We are currently waiting for their confirmation so we can provide you with the correct documents and complete your refund. We appreciate your patience while we resolve this for you.

Dreadful return service. Stay away
I purchased 2 items A pair of thongs and a blouse.
The thongs were true to size and passable.
The blouse was not as described. It is made of a horrible hot fabric and a very small make. It does not flow in the sleeves as pictured and described. Horrible blouse.
30 return policy. To return to ? Not sure yet. They wish to give me 30% refund for a horrible blouse I will not wear. It looks super cheap. Think a bad TEMu or SHEIN I would stay away from this store. I have learned my lesson.

We also want to clarify that we have our own brand and styles, and we’re not affiliated with Temu or Shein.
We’re glad we were able to resolve this together with the courtesy refund you accepted, and we truly appreciate your input as it helps us improve.

DO NOT BUY FROM THIS COMPANY
DO NOT BUY FROM THIS COMPANY. If I could leave less than one star, I would. I was completely scammed after choosing a $70 blouse with beautiful seams, detail and flowy material, I was sent what looked like a hospital scrub, a total joke. I actually burst out laughing when i opened out, I was so surprised. Customer Service responded they could give me a "one-off 30% refund" but only if I accepted immediately. Still waiting for that.
