· Excellent prices, and some great additional discounts

· Clean and easy-to-use site

· There are loads of other products here too

Overstock.com is one of the bigger names in online discount retail. The site covers everything from home furnishings to electricals, but there is a superb selection of shoes to be found here too. You'll find sneakers, heals, clogs, booties and all kinds of different shoes, all from brands such as Nike, Adidas, Birkenstock, and more. You even found some designers private label shoes, although their number is very limited.

The product pages are clean, but lack a little information when compared to the likes of Zappos. You'll see good product images of the shoes, and if you scroll around the page you will find a limited number of user reviews, but rarely enough to inform your decision-making. There's a Q&A section, which is good when it's populated by users, and while we applaud the effort of the Tips and Inspiration tab... the content in there isn't very inspirational.

Shipping is free to all states except Hawaii and Alaska, and is quicker than most other stores on this list. There's a 30-day returns policy, which is standard, and users are responsible for the cost of 'buyers remorse' returns. Sadly, this does include shoes that don't fit, which is one of the perils of buying from a more generalist store.

Overstock.com User Reviews and Ratings

· Has an A+ rating and is accredited at the Better Business Bureau

· Scores 1 out of 5 via Consumer Affairs

We looked at over 200 reviews of Overstock.com and found that it's a company with a range of both good and bad user feedback. We were surprised to see Overstock score only a single star on Consumer Affairs, so looked at the reasons why this could be. Many are for defective products that required assembly, and few of the negative reviews apply to shoes purchased on site.

What we did see was a lot of praise for Overstock's prompt shipping, with users enjoying the fact their items arrived sooner than expected. The customer service has mixed reviews, with some stating it's helpful and others bemoaning the fact that it didn't resolve issues at all. Overstock is good at answering complaints via the BBB (of which there are a lot), but it does so in a very dry and factual way, which lacks a little human understanding.
