Frequently Asked Questions

ABOUT WICKED TEMPTATIONS

How long have you been in business?

Wicked Temptations has been in business since 1993 when we came out with our first printed catalog. In 1995 we became one of the first lingerie companies to launch a website and by 1999 we had stopped mailing catalogs to focus all our efforts on our internet activities. We have come a long way - from a small time operation working out of a 200 square foot bedroom to an international company with a 20,000 square foot warehouse!

Do you design and manufacture the items on your site?

We design and manufacture about 1/3rd of the styles on our site right here in Los Angeles. Although most of our other lingerie suppliers do their sewing outside the US, we believe that we should do our part by employing local people. And while other companies send their web work out of the country, we take great pride in producing our website right here in our offices using in-house talent.

How often do you add new items to your site?

Every Monday we do something special for our customers by either adding new styles or by running a sale. We keep our customers informed of changes and specials in several ways:

  • We put a large banner on the top-left of the home page directing you to the new items. The next week, that banner will be moved to the top-right of the home page and a new banner announcing a new release will appear on the top-left.
  • You will find "New Additions" on the left-side navigation of every page of our site. The most recent additions will appear at the top of the list.
  • Most importantly, we send an email to our Wicked Buyer's Club (WBC) members. These announcements will occasionally include specials for our WBC members that are not announced on the site. If you are not a WBC member, you can sign up now by going to the WBC sign-up page.

PLACING AN ORDER - LOST ORDERS

I'm having problems viewing the site.

Most of the time, when a customer is having problems viewing our site, the problem can be solved by doing one of two things.

  • Sometimes the problem is with your firewall settings. If you have a firewall, lower the security settings and try to view our site again., or
  • The problem might be an old browser. Please make sure that you are using the current version of Firefox (Firefox 3) or a comparable browser. For some reason, many AOL users have trouble viewing sites like ours. We have not been able to determine the source of the problem. We can only ask that you view our site using the latest version of Internet Explorer outside of the AOL environment.

Do you have a store? Can I pick up my order at your warehouse? Can I shop and try things on there?

Why are some items pictured in a color that isn't listed as an option?

If you see an item pictured in a color that is not offered, you are probably shopping in the "Sale" (or clearance) section. At one time, the item was probably available in the color shown but we are now clearing the style out of our inventory and that color is no longer available. After the rest of the inventory is sold, the photo will come down from our site.

Back to top

Do you have a printed catalog?

No, we stopped printing catalogs in 1997 resulting in numerous benefits to our customers:

  • We save printing costs and those costs are passed on to you.
  • A catalog can only contain about 200 styles. Our site offers about 4,000 styles.
  • A catalog is out of date the moment it comes off the press. We update and republish our site 3 to 4 times a day!
  • A catalog wastes paper and trees - precious natural resources. Our site represents the greenest way to shop. Please don't support any company that misuses these resources!

SEARCHING AND REFINING

What is the difference between using the "Refines" on the left side of the page and the "Search" box at the top of every page?

We have determined which items will show up when you use the refines on the left. The Search box looks at item names and item descriptions to determine which items to display. So, if you click on the Wicked Originals collection called "Hearts" you will see 9 items displayed all made from the same heart-print fabric. But if you used the Search box to search for the term Hearts you will see over 120 items including the 9 already mentioned plus items with the word hearts in the titles and/or descriptions including shorts that give your butt a "heart shape".
