Origami Owl Customer Care Review from El Paso, Texas
Their customer service is the pits, worse than AT&T or the postal service which is bad enough and I've considered the worse, until NOW!! I called early enough in the morning...36 minutes later, no customer service, just the same boring song over and over again!!
I tried again a little later... Nope, not gonna happen! Hung up after 20 minutes cause I knew they weren't going to answer!!
Forget them!!!! Debbie R.
Origami Owl Customer Care Review
Beware- especially of the Core bracelets!!
I had purchased from Origami Owl a few times, got suckered into a few parties. I know I spent near 400.00.
I thought it was beautiful and fun and didn't mind spending the money at first. But then things started happening like my jewelry tarnishing, was getting bad feedback from things I gave as gifts, and the last straw were the Core teardrop bracelets, they DO NOT stay closed and any charms you buy for them fall off and get lost. I am so embarrassed I gifted those bracelets to people. They ( the bracelets!) are so flimsy!
For the same money, you can get REAL jewelry elsewhere. Because this really is just costume jewelry

***
I was *** enough to replace the first bracelet I was given as a gift after it literally just dissolved. The second bracelet broke after two weeks, but I glued it back together (as I make my own jewelry as well).
I started wearing the bracelet less, even though I'd prefer to wear it every day. Still, the bracelet ended up falling apart like it did before- the leather became unglued in other spots, started completely peeling off, and eventually the glass came unglued as well and the charms fell out. I've never purchased something so expensive that was so cheap. So disappointing, as the bracelet itself was very pretty.
For a day. Until, you know, it disintegrated.

Origami owl is at it again
So Origami Owl never submitted proof they are authors of their copyrights to the Federal Courts in a lawsuit. They think they are somehow above the law.
They instead use one of their little hired helper to have all their fraudulent copyrights removed off of all the public sites. This is the peon is doing Origami Owls dirty work and not telling him they are frauds is sad.

There contracts are a joke
In their Origami Owls contracts say no designer can sell in a kiosk or a brick and mortar shops. This would include Ebay or any public site. Their strict rules are home party’s ONLY. Yet, they let everyone claim their copied charms and lockets are authentic and sell on Ebay and don't have them removed. Sorry your lockets and charms are COMPLETE KNOCK OFFS OF OTHER PEOPLES DESIGNS YOU FRAUDS.
Origami Owl has the balls to copy other people’s work since they started. Something is majorly wrong these people. They are sick ugly people that bully everyone and think they own everything.
Origami Owl "Outlet" --- FAKE !!!!
I ordered a necklace, a locket and several charms from Origami Owl Outlet not knowing it is not the real thing. I cannot get a hold of anyone on their phone number (551-998-****).
My wife took her necklace and charms to a real dealer to buy some more and was told it is FAKE.
I got husband of the year award since it was a Christmas present. My wife also ordered necklace and charms for my daughter for Christmas from a Dealer and the items don't even look the same. There is a big difference between the fake stuff and the real stuff.
I didn't know that you had to order from a dealer. Buyer BEWARE of OUTLET.

Origami Owl - Failing Business - AUG. 2015
First of all, Origami Owl is a Multi-Level Marketing company (like Amway,Tupperware) and "Independent Designers" are NOT employees, they're simply sales associates that host small jewelry parties in their homes with friends, primarily as income supplementation. Their intentionally narrowed scope of understanding of the company renders their reviews here and elsewhere irrelevant to the interior operations of Origami Owl, with most reviewers still in their first few weeks as an "Independent Designer," hence the initial spike in positive outlook.
Now, as a previous corporate employee of 3 years, working daily with founder Christian Weems, and all other hastily appointed chiefs, executives, directors and CEO's quickly deteriorated into an unfortunate, and terribly negative experience, environmentally, socially, and professionally.
Across the board, the executive leadership's surprisingly stark lack of industry experience (both with MLM business, and the jewelry/fashion industry), and their almost comedic absence of vision for the company's future has been the single driving force in Origami Owl's previous, current, and ongoing crumbling business.
Barely into it's 5th year of operating, Origami Owl's corporate headquarter office in Chandler, AZ. ballooned to about 600 employees by the end of 2014. Now in 2015, after 3 massive layoffs, and the company's 3rd CEO in a 5 month period, Origami Owl has about 230 employees left, with their last round of massive layoffs clearing out major management roles.
Because of whats happening, those intelligent, skilled individuals NOT laid off have all jumped ship by now and most have already moved into their newest and current careers. Unfortunately all that's left running the place now is a desperately weakened, inexperienced, and inexpensively salaried D level labor force, in all departments, waiting nervously at their cubicles to be served their sudden and unexplained termination paperwork.
During my time with Origami Owl I observed record-speed failure in five important and blindingly obvious aspects of their business:
1.) Large inherent market saturation problem.2.) Major "Pyramid" structuring issues.3.) Failure to utilize retail market at all.4.) Greedy morality and unethical business practices.5.) Absent company relationship with sales associates ("Independent Designers.")
At this point Origami Owl is experiencing failure at a rate faster than when they were experiencing their highest gains. They don't understand their current business because literally no one at the executive and director levels have ever experienced their current business before, whether its direct sales MLMs or jewelry and fashion.
From one moment to the next, year after year, every top-down decision made within Origami Owl is presumptuous conjecture, *** guesswork at the costly expense of MANY of Origami Owl's private investors... whose temporary involvement and money is previously and currently keeping the company afloat, and quickly drying up.
In the next 5 years or less Origami Owl won't be in operation anymore, surviving only as a business statistic whose epitaph serves as a warning and example of flawed, erroneous, and inappropriate business operation.
Preferred solution: Let the company propose a solution

Some things never change they have had this same issue since day one!
They probably fired their customer service people. Wouldn't surprise me at all.
This company is a joke, ran by a bunch of inexperienced managers, horrible training, very much a High School setting, you not part of the right click you are out... They hire at very low wage, then lay off 20 at a time, then 3 months later hire more straight out of high school, sounds all peaches and cream, but really it's a Fake, dishonest company .also, jewelry fake.
