Refurbished, seconds, grey goods, b-branded, catalogue returns

Thats right they don't sell new....unless it comes from mass produced China.

Their ebay site - Oceantreetrading sells the same cr*p for half the price and sometimes with free P+P and in most cases the P+ is £3.00 tops...

The brands are rejects that Richard Bransons team sources and sells to us at over the top prices for inferior products.

Shop through others for bargains the £5.99 p+p does exist don't pretend it doesn't to justify telling everyone it only cost you a fiver because in reality it cost you closer to eleven quid...it's an invitation to treat.

Bid and its ilke make more money on the p+p than the product in some cases.

Mass posting is cheap for bid...items often only cost £2.00 to send bid making £3.99 on the deal....think before you buy!

GET YOUR BARGIN DEALS ELSEWHERE! REASONS EXPLAINED!

Lets get to the point shall we! This site and all other affiliates of it are rubbish!

*bid.tv
*pricedrop.tv
*speedauction.tv

If you want to read more on why they're rubbish, then read my rant.

----------------
So, you want to become a first time buyer? Nah forget that. I'll list the reasons you're to AVOID LIke YOUR WALLETS OR DESIGNER PURSE DEPENDS ON IT..

1. Customer service call center is based in another country -
the idiots of the world will go, "SO?" I'll say, they'll steal your details and commit all sorts of crimes against you and you wont even know. What can you or the authorities here in the UK for that matter do about it if its happening thousands of miles away. There's only so much you or they can do. Its a hassle you can do without, trust.


2. The phone call you make is an expensive one. They'll say its £1.53 from BT landlines but what about everywhere else like Virgin or Sky?? or on mobile networks? YOU DON'T KNOW! PLEASE TELL US!

3. You think you getting a pretty decent bargain?
"Oh aye, I'm getting a pretty decent bargain me, by making a purchase and at bid.tv." NOOOOOOO PEOPLES...Noooo! I'll explain.

Amazon UK VS. BID.TV
------------------------------
ITEM FOR SALE - Nikon Coolpix L23 Digital Camera
-----------------------
PRICE:

Amazon UK-£59.82
BID.TV-£53.82

---------------------------------

Okay, £6 off, BUT WAIT! You need to factor in the reduced delivery charge (before £7.99 - NOW £5.99) and the rippoff phone call. Virgin will charge you £3.00, sooo all in all the whole thing costs £62.82. I cudda brought me a loaf of bread, Milk, and Weetabix with that money.

4. Luxury Subscriptions
-----------------------------
They stick you with a FREE subscription, and so you're not charged £35.00, you MUST unsubscribe within a fortnight of receiving details about your subscription via post or you'll be charged £35.00.

After I made my purchase, I says to the man over the phone "Look, how many more times do I have to say to ya? I don't want the subscription". But he weren't having it. He said, "but sir you can unsubscribe within 14 days of the receipt of your Luxury Brochure". Okay I says, then I hang up the phone. 14 days later, they charge me 35 quid. SIGH!

Rubbish

Ordered an iron, Didn't receive it, called to chase and they advised it had been sent.

After some investigation, they advised me it had been left in my shed as I want in........which was great as at the time I ordered, I lived in a house with NO SHED!!

I asked for a refund, which had to wait for a letter to be sent to me to sign, then had to post back.

Haven't checked my bank for a day or so, but as it stands....still no refund.

Wont be using them again and I advise you dont!!

great service

have purchased many items. All very satisfactory. Great delivery times. Postage a bit pricy though.
