SHONOBO SCAM
On May 5, 2026, I ordered a birthday gift for my nephews upcoming birthday from Shonobo through Shopify. After eight business days, and no communication, no email including an order confirmation, and Shopify shows "waiting for update" from the seller; I reviewed their order policy and as anticipated no way to contact the merchant aside from email.
Their policy states "All orders ship within 1-2 business days after they have been confirmed. We do not ship on weekends or holidays. Orders placed on weekends or holidays will ship on the next business day & items usually arrive within 3-9 working days from the date of order with our VIP Shipping. We send out emails to every customer as soon as their parcel has left our warehouse with the relevant tracking details. Use the tracking details to follow the progress of your order. If you do not receive our email confirmation, make sure to check your spam folder."
I contacted Shonobo via email and received the following reply . . . "Upon checking our system, we can confirm that your order is currently in the early stage of transit and will soon reach your destination country. We would also like to inform you that your order experienced a longer-than-expected processing time, which has impacted the overall delivery timeline due to unforeseen logistical circumstances." No communication of the delayed processing time, no carrier or tracking information, and no anticipated delivery date.
It has now been fourteen days and I have received no parcel, no communication, no tracking information, and still no updates have been posted to Shopify.
I now have to secure a different gift, notify my financial institution and credit card issuer to file a charge back, register a complaint with Shopify and notify the appropriate parties. It's unfortunate companies like Shopify aren't interested in protecting consumers, only profits, by properly vetting merchants.
On further investigation, Shonobo has received registered complaints with the BBB and earned a 1% Trust Rating from Scamdoc.
