Warning For Online Shoppers:

It is Christmas time and I often like to do my shopping online. But beware, crime on the net is particularly rife at this time of the year.

I have been searching for a few rather hard to come by items online and have come up empty over the last few months. Then low and behold, yesterday I find the perfect website that will allow me import items directly from the UK, USA or China AND I was suddenly spoilt for choice as the items I was looking for were now available in various colours and variations.
I thought I had found the Holy Grail.

While searching the site for even more items because the prices were not ludicrous by any stretch of the imagination, I became aware of a few "glitches" with pricing. The item displayed at a certain price but once I clicked on it, it became nearly double. I could not help thinking that a site with this type of capability would need a very healthy bankroll to fund it. And surely a fair amount of time and money would have been spent on gaining customer insights and should be far more customer centric.. ??Suffice to say, a seed was planted.

I explored the site more thoroughly and found a few red flags as even the Q & A page did not seem "right"

I then looked for reviews on the company by typing the company name and the word "reviews". I checked out Hello Peter and instead of just looking at the overall rating of the company which displayed as 4.3 out 5 stars. And a few positive comments at the top. I took the time to read the reviews and found that although there were quite a few that said it was a scam site. Their weighting on the final score appeared to have manipulated by other reviews which were completed rather systematically in terms of date order.
I finally checked out another site https://mybroadband.co.za/forum/threads/anyone-used-ubuy-za-com.883222/
And there it was. ... See more

https://www.ubuy.za.com/ Anyone used these guys before? Their prices are good for their imported products so was wondering if anyone has had any experience with them? Thanks

Parents, please be aware, these are widely available here in S.A. too
