Considering HikingTale for your online purchase? If so, then first let’s figure out either is an HikingTale.com scam or a genuine online store from this HikingTale review. Here, in this page, we are trying to show you the actual face of this site so that you can find its reality, either an HikingTale fake or a trustworthy company.
What is HikingTale.com?
It is an online shopping store which is selling multiple products like Boss bags, beach hats, shoes and clothing, etc. However, there are so many things you must know about this site before choosing it as your shopping destination.
HikingTale is classified as one of the suspicious sites because of the following drawbacks:
Company Address:
It has provided new parent company name same as Bumperr, Btree, etc. on its Terms of Service page which is JAMYA LIMITED: One Victoria Square, Birmingham, Victoria Square, Birmingham, England, B1 1BD. Like those other similar sites which are providing parent company's name like Bumperr, Btree and so on, it has also provided the image of its parent company's name and address instead of writing directly on its website which is mostly done by sites when they copy-paste other company's address so that no one can find them searching the given parent company name and address on Google.
When we search this address on Google, we find out there are multiple companies registered using this same address. And on Google Maps, there is no company with the name JAMYA LIMITED or HikingTale that has been mentioned on or around this given address which proves that this is just a virtual address that most of the companies have used to registered a company in the UK Companies House. It is not an address of their physical location. This address is also found to used by other suspicious sites like Eibuys, ButtyLife, Trutfuly, Sheinike, Welkone, etc. This makes it clear that this site is trying to hide the information, so we shall not trust such a company for any kind of online shopping.
Discount and Sales offers:
It is selling items at unrealistic discounts that seems too good to be true getting from any legit sites.
Copied content:
Lots of content including its website theme with multiple suspicious and problematic sites.
Likewise, it has mentioned the website name of another website rather than its own on its Privacy Policy, etc. pages i.e. Water-shoe.com but it has not provided any details about its link with that website whereas legit companies always mention their connection with other sister websites if any. So this must be a copy-paste blunder that mostly scam sites do.
Returns and Exchange:
Its Returns and Exchanges Policy says that the buyer bears the return or exchange shipping costs. It is found to be unrealistic for the return and exchange of items purchased from it. So, it is almost impossible to get back a full refund amount from these kinds of sites due to their confusing provisions.
Customer Complaints and Delivery:
The customer support as well as delivery time of sites similar to this site are also very poor as per the complaints received from the buyers of similar kinds of sites.
Our Final Verdict:
All the above mentioned realities of this site are enough to draw a conclusion that HikingTale is one of the suspicious websites.

These days multiple new online stores are claiming to sell various items on huge discount, but most of them are scams. So, it’s better to stay away from the new online stores or at least do some research before you purchase something from the new online stores because most of these new online stores don’t deliver the purchased items to their clients or, deliver completely different or very low-quality items. Some scam online stores even have charged the credit card of clients randomly without their consent. So, if you have ever purchased mistakenly from scam sites, we suggest you immediately contact your bank or credit card company to secure your credit card information.
Good Luck !
