Oriental Trading Company

Full review
The Oriental Trading Company online store is the place to go for pretty much any occasion. I have shopped there for a lot of occasions my self. The site is set up nicely. You can order very easily. I really like it a lot. I have been shopping with them since 2002. I have ordered at least 4 to 6 times per years since that time.

What you can find for sale at the Oriental Trading Company online store:

Once you visit the Oriental Trading Company online store you will find tons of items to pick from. They carry things single and carry things by bulk sale. You can buy Easter items to fill Easter baskets. That includes candy, bunnies that are stuffed, puppets, plastic filled or not filled eggs and more. They have Christmas items such as mini plush Christmas Santa, snowmen, angels and little gift boxes filled with candy or chocolates.

You can get coffee mugs filled with prizes. They carry valentines day items, all major and non major holiday items. But the best are the birthday items that they sell. You can plan a party for a man, woman, girl, boy or even a baby if you need to. They have some thing for every birthday. They even carry age specific items like 30,40 ,50 and so on. They have graduation items as well.

You can even get gag gifts, light wands, glow jewelry and a ton of small novelty items like rubber balls, squishy sticky hands and much more. The variety is great. We have a miniature crane game that picks up these small type items so I buy them as often as possible as rewards.

What I have purchased:

Like I mentioned. I have purchased items for the crane game that we have. We have bought a lot of party items for birthdays and holidays. I have filled many Easter baskets at low cost. I have bought gag gifts for fun, a piggy bank in the shape of a crayon and some other items. Every thing I bought I was able to see pictured on the site before I got it. I liked every thing and every thing was great and had no problems at all.

The prices:

The prices are really good. A lot of the items that the Oriental Trading Company online store sells are sold at rock bottom prices! I like the fact that I can buy an entire set of stuffed animals to stuff stockings with or give as gifts and pay only $12.00 for them. I also like the fact that birthday expenses are so cheap when I shop for the items through this site. The prices can not be beat for supplies like theirs.

Shipping and payment options:

The shipping is always fast. I pay by money order after printing out my order from the site. You can also pay by credit card and other methods if you would like to. I send my form with my money order and end up getting my total order in just a little over a week. That is not bad considering that it takes 2-3 days for them just to get the money order that I send. The site is secure so if you use a credit card you can feel safe doing so.


The Oriental Trading Company online store packages all of the items with care. They are protected by large sized bubble wrap and there are no gaps in the box for items to shift around in. I have never gotten any thing from them that was damaged through shipping. I have never had any trouble with the shipments at all.

Site set up:

The colors of the site are bold. I can not give exact colors because they always change according to the time of year or holiday that it is at the time. They use very bold coloring and the site is easy to read on. I like that they have large views of pictures of each item so that you can really see what you are going to get. They describe all of the items perfectly. The set up of this site is great. I have no complaints.

Ordering:

Ordering is made easy on this site. All you do is find the item you want and add it to your cart. Then you go to the check out section and begin the process of checking out. They will ask for your billing information, shipping information and payment information. That is all there is to it. You will get an invoice right after and they also email you one. Keep the email because it has your order number inside of it and you will need that if you plan on tracking your order on line at any time.

My recommendation:

As I said I really like this store. They have a lot to offer. The prices are very low and every thing that I have ever bought has been top quality and very well worth the money that I spent on them. I have no problems with payments, shipments or any thing of the sort. I have always had great experiences with the Oriental Trading Company online store. I would recommend giving it a try. Hopefully you will like it as much as I do and it will be a place that you will shop at in the future.
