When purchasing cross stitch fabrics online, or anything really for that matter, the buyer must be very careful to purchase from a reputable source. It's also not a bad idea to price-check many places to make sure that one is getting the best bargain. Be sure to add in shipping costs as well when figuring prices, as this can definitely drive the price of items much higher than anticipated. Looking for Free Shipping offers is especially beneficial.
Here are a few tips and recommendations we offer for purchasing online:
Amazon.com
Fabric.com...Up to 70% off Retail - Again, a very well known company that's been around for years! They stock DMC and Charles Craft fabrics and a few linens. If you enjoy any other type of crafts, this place is quite addictive as they have a HUGE assortment of fabric! And they have FREE SHIPPING for orders over $35.
Joann.com - another very well known name in Crafts. You certainly can't go wrong with Joann Fabrics! They usually have a special for free shipping over $50 and oftentimes have coupons for big percentages off. In fact, here's a 40% off one item coupon - 40% Off the Regular Price of One Item at Joann.com ( Code:AE320 )
.
And of course, there is Ebay! You may have noticed that most of the products on this website are for products listed on Ebay. There is one main advantage that Ebay has over other merchants - SELECTION! While the places listed above are 'safer' to purchase from (more on that in a minute), Ebay's selection of cross stitch fabric just can't be beat. At any one given time, they have over 5000 listings for cross stitch fabric.
The disadvantage of purchasing cross stitch fabric on Ebay of course, is the multitude of sellers that may or may not have a reputation established. For the safest transactions, always look at the seller's feedback score (both number and percentage). If you see 100% positive and a number that shows that the seller has been around for a while, you can feel safe buying from that seller.
