BEWARE Nuova Melbourne company – Purchased clothing and boots from NUOVA Melbourne…poor quality. Had to send them back to China at my expense……they arrived in China 35 days ago…… I’m not holding my breath. No more answers to my emails…which come from the Netherlands. I paid for items in Australian dollars, then noticed my bank had charged me a foreign transaction fee???? Definitely a SCAM Show details
Total scam – Total scam! The products are such poor quality it’s hard understand what they are actually made from. Endless AI procrastination to fill the returns window. Return address in China, I doubt a refund will be processed. Do not purchase from this company! Show details
Terrible damaged boots – I ordered a pair of boots that were made in Melbourne and leather boots. That’s not what I got. To make it worse they were dumped on my door step and the packaging was damaged and so was the product. Very disappointing and they still haven’t rectified the issue and PayPal didn’t help much either.

Unethical Company - Do not buy from them – Buyer beware: Be mindful of purchasing from this company. The item I received ( after 4 weeks) was not what I ordered . They now expect me to incur the cost of returning it to them or keep the item and pay again for the item I originally ordered. I will be doing neither. Their ethics are very questionable. The images below of the faux knitted cardigan I ordered & the other is of the item received.
SCAM horrible products – Nuova Melbourne. Don’t let a nice looking website fool you like it did me. Horrible knock-off products Show details
Very poor quality shoes and jumper – Boots I ordered are not as shown . Not leather, very narrow and incorrect size . Not suitable for orthotics. No label to show country of manufacture or materials used. Also my so called Cashmere jumper is a complete fake. Same issue as with boots no country of manufacture or material tag to show how to launder etc. I am trying to get a refund but this company is OS not Melbourne. Show details
Worst online purchase ever – Oh how I wish I had read this before purchasing the cheapest worst boots ever! Size is not right and they should be closed down Show details

Bad quality, cheap and nasty!! – Poor poor quality, will never buy from again. Email address for returns doesn’t work, so have had to resort to a claim through PayPal Show details
RUBBISH QUALITY – Stupidly got sucked in by the advertising....and like the other reviews, my products (boots) were complete rubbish.. Disappointingly I have wasted more money on a coat, heaven knows what they are going to send me - so like the other reviews, the boots are light, cheap rubbish, you would get better quality from a $2.00 shop - DO NOT GO NEAR THEM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Absolutely terrible - please steer clear of this company – I’d give zero stars if I could. Absolute sham. Product is nowhere near as advertised - basically cheap plastic shoes, unbranded, and nothing like the images. Similar terrible experience to other reviews here - steer clear. Show details
A SCAM – This is an absolute scam. I bought what looked like a knitted sweater with floral stitching and received a disgusting synthetic piece of rubbish with a printed pattern on it. The company deliberately poses as Australian when it in fact ships from Asia. I’ll be reporting to the ACCC as false advertising and a scam. Please do yourself a favour and avoid wasting your money like I did. Show details
Terrible on all fronts. Cannot be trusted – I am extremely dissatisfied with this company. Their garments are not made of high quality cotton-linen as suggested - the fabric feels like it contains a good deal of polyester and does not have a nice look and does not sit nicely when worn. The returns process has been a nightmare. After requesting retunr I had to email again atleast 8 times… Read more
as they kept trying to offer me other deals - to get me to buy more product. Now I have the retuns process and address, I am responsible for postage to China (and customs charges), a phot of the package and tracking number and I am not sven sure after all that that they will refund me. SooLinen did not - and I wonder whether they are in fact the same Company. I take exception to their name as it implies they operate from Melbourne and therefore retirns process should be striaghtforward. I advise everyone to steer well clear of these people.

Rip off clothing – I wish I had read the reviews before purchasing. I thought I was buying from a shop in Melbourne but instead I received a Shein/Temu top at 500% mark up price. Lesson learnt. Steer clear from this online shop. Kicking myself Show details
Buyer beware scam – Not as advertised. Advertised as a cashmere jumper yet tagged 95% polyester and 5% cotton. Coat is not Woolen jumper. Shop would not refund Show details
Nuova Melbourne – Product not as advertised; advertised as a set - pants size small, top very small; cheap material; Delay in delivery even though they said it had been sent. No response re delay until I emailed. A request for return & refund was a joke, so many emails backwards & forwards to them. Finally got the return address - it's in China - at my cost, even… Read more
though their Refund & Returns Policy states LTS Commerce as the company with a return address in the Netherlands. My advice - don't buy anything from this company.
Product not good quality – The boots are the correct size however ill fitting and material poor quality .Ellen -waterproof boots .Would not buy from this site again. Show details
Not at all genuine – Product not at all as advertised. Merino wool... ha ha... cotton polyester. Very crappy garment. A complete scam... and of course no way to get refund. Do not buy from these charlatans.
Don't buy these boots – Would not recommend. Advertised as Nuova Melbourne, items appear to come from China with a financial address in the Netherlands. Advertising is deceptive, boots are poor quality, sizing is small and there is no padding and minimal support provided by a very thin insole. However the colour is good. Show details

Do not buy from these scammers – The company name is Nova Melbourne, but they are a chinese company, not an australian one. I ordered two pairs of orthopedic sandals. After about three weeks from ordering I received these cheap plastic sandals, two-three numbers smaller than the size chart from their website, horrible quality. When I wrote to them and asked for a refund, they… Read more
tried to convince me to keep the sandals and offered various discounts for future purchases. I had to write at least 20 emails until they finally agreed to refund, but only if I return the items on my own expense. I did that and paid $25AUD for a tracked return. Four months later I still haven't received the refund. I suspect they provided a fake return address and at this point I lost $152.
Game playing lying company that will cheat you out of your money – Product was inferior terribke cannery not what was advertised so I requested a refund. I had to send the parcel to China at the cost of over double what it would have cost to post in Australia . This parcel had now been returned to me with a sticker saying parcel was refused to be accepted in China. I had tracked it so far to China. So a $145… Read more
purchase plus $25 postage down the drain. I wish I had read all the dreadful reviews about this shady shonky company before purchasing. I would have given it no stars if I could have. They should be shut down from advertising on Facebook etc.

Very Disappointed – Sizing not to Australian Sizing and Very poor return process. The name of the company is misleading as it is a Chinese company with head office in China and not based in Melbourne. I thought I was buying an Australia product so very disappointing Show details
Never received my order – Don’t by from this company .. I’ve never received my order & they never reply to your emails .. actually your emails are never accepted by them ..
Don’t buy from this company – Ordered what was supposed to be linen pants reduced from $130 to $65. When they arrived they were cheap cotton and not very well made and looked nothing like the pictures on the web site. I wish I had seen these reviews before buying. Have contacted the email address but not had any reply as yet. Don’t buy from this company! Show details
Didn't receive product or refund - SCAM!!!! – I paid for a pair of shoes Dec 16th 2023, I have not received them 11 March 2024. I contacted Nova by email 6wks after I ordered and paid, I was told to be patient they were in transit. I emailed again 10wks post purchase date, no response. I also tried using the contact form on the website again no response. If you go to the website the only form… Read more
of contact is email which they don't respond to. Buyer beware, as far as I'm concerned this is a SCAM they take your money and no goods are sent and no follow up to the emails or offer of a refund. Do yourself a favour and shop elsewhere!!!!!
RUBBISH – Rubbish more like a nightie than a dress. Was supposed to be cotton. They won’t answer my emails to arrange a return. I did look at reviews they were all good but that was on the company’s Facebook page. Don’t be fooled like I was. Show details
DISGUSTING SCAMMERS – I purchased so called orthopaedic sandals, $80, but what I got was a plastic pair of very poorly made sandals that you cant wear. I contacted them, they offered 20% then 30% then 40% refund, when I explained I wanted a full refund and wanted an address to return them to, they told me I have to return them to China. I lodged a paypay dispute, which… Read more
actually comes up as D B WAVE MARKETING B.V I advised Paypal, I purchased from the AU site, so I should be able to return them to the AU site, paypal advised they would get me a full refund once the item was returned and gave me 8 days to return them to China as this is what the seller has agreed to, we all know Melbourne to China is not possible within 8 days, so the cunning seller knows this and only offers that as an option so she gets to keep your money regardless. I wish I had of read these reviews prior to purchasing, their photos and models look very well made, but that is not what you get, Since then, I have had her email bounce back " the address is not valid" and the only contact I can now have is via paypal, who now will not allow me to correspond until I provide a tracking number, regardless of the product not being able to make it to China within the specified 8 day period, the tracking number will be useless once it leaves Australia waters, obviously the seller knows this too. Your just in a NO WIN situation and you loose your money. DO NOT BUY FROM THESE PEOPLE
Buyer beware!!! – BUYER BEWARE. DO NOT PURCHASE FROM THIS COMPANY. I should have read the reviews!!!!! Purchased two pairs of orthopedic sandels last year. What arrived arrived were toxic smelling slippery plastic shoes with no orthopedic qualities at all. After many many emails I settled on a 40% refund, which has never been processed despite many promises. I… Read more
put a case to PayPal for just the refund that had been agreed upon but it was declined and now my emails are bouncing back from Nova Support !!!!!!
Avoid this company. Poor quality, poor response rate & no refund provided – I wish I had search for reviews before purchasing from this company. I saw an advert on Instagram. Purchased three dresses which took ages to arrive. No order email received which should have alerted me to a potential problem. Material was terrible & they were too big. Contacted them by email for a return address which was responded by numerous… Read more
emails offering alternate options to a refund. Persisted & eventually was given a return address. Returned products and advised the company. Received an email stating my refund would be processed and returned but this never happened. Now the emails I send are getting a failure to send notice because the email address does not exist!! I have contacted them again today through their website contact to see if any response. Looks like I have lost $191.00 plus $35 postage. Do not deal with this company
Just don’t go there, people! – Don’t go there people! This mob uses various business names on Facebook but they are all the same things from China that take weeks and weeks to arrive and are NOT what they claim to be - eg Orthopaedic shoes etc. Their so-called positive comments on FB are just cut and paste and on repeat. I finally got a partial refund after much haggling but… Read more
the shoes went in the rubbish bin. I felt like such a fool as I’m usually not a sucker, but they got me. Be warned!
