My Experience with 48craft.com
I placed my order on Monday Evening and received it on Wednesday morning! It just took one and half a day!! Too fast and great. Hats off. Soon after I placed my order, I got a confirmation mail from them. But I didn't get any "Product Dispatched" information after that, still it was not a problem for me because I received my order in 1 and half a days!!!!! Lovely!!


My 48Craft.com Goodie Pack


It came in a well packed thick cardboard sheet pack with tapes allover. Hence, the packaging is so sturdy and safe. I have ordered two ethnic jute bags, One for my mom and one for my sister and they are in good conditioner, new and super duper.

My mom and sister loved these handmade bags a lot.. I guess all of their bags do have mobile pockets inside. One more plus it is! 

Some more Interesting Information About these Jute Bags 

  
 Aren't you tempted to shop from this site after seeing all these things I mentioned and explained, especially the product description?
  As same as these ones, they have well designed all the other bags, as well as the other goodies and given description about them. This gives a good trust for customers and I would like to mention now that they are customer friendly too!!

Now comes the Pros and Cons..

PROS
  1. I received my goodies within one and Half a day!!!!!!!!! Super Fast!
  2. Compactly and safely packed. 
  3. Easy Shopping Site design
  4. They have a wide range of ancient, yet trendy products
  5. Unique site to purchase great handmade products.
  6. Toys, bags, Arts, Home furnishing, Valentine's day gift packs, Jewellery.. Everything Available at one place!! Very Fast Shipping too!
  7. Great place to buy devotional goodies too.
  8. The Return Policy.
  9. All the products are reasonably priced.
CONS
  1. The only thing that disappointed me is the unavailability of COD (cash on delivery) option. :( It would be perfect if they work on it. Other than this thing, it's a great website to shop ancient and ethnic crafts.
My Recommendation: Sure! Make a purchase to get ethnic and trendy goodies. Super fast shipping and great collections available. Hence I highly recommend 48Craft.com to everyone!

Overall Rating: 4/5  

Will I Re Shop?: No doubt! I will for sure. Great site to get ethnic goodies.
