How reliable are Grabitnow?

A while ago now Grabitnow offered some free batteries as there daily deal, no cost and no p&p. I signed up and ordered some but they haven't yet arrived. I'm now wondering if it's safe to buy from them. A few weeks ago they were selling Ipod Shuffles for £19 and I would probably have bought one if they hadn't sold out by 9.30 on a Sunday morning! Have I had a lucky escape or are they just very slow.:undecided

I think they may well have dissapeared in the post ... Mine arrived within 2 days and normally orders from them are fast at arriving usually within 2-4 days.
I have had no problems with them at all. Some of the items are cheap tat but if you look properly at the items you can usually decipher what is tat and what is quality.
Oh and the batteries ... they are tat ... but they are free
They don't last 5 mins. Raising kids is like being held hostage by midget terrorists0 -
I have nothing but praise for them. All of my purchases have arrived, as well as two freebies.
Maybe you have just been unlucky?It's BARGAIN, BARGAIN, got it? Bargin my ****.0 -
So where's the grabbit?

I ordered a USB light from them last week (was either the 17th or 18th July) and it has arrived this morning.... am well chuffed with it - total bargain for £1.04!
Have you contacted them?

They are called 'GRABITnow.com'. Plus they are normally sell heavily discounted items for a period of 24 hours. Just happens that on this occassion the price had been discounted to nil pence.The fridge is empty, the walls are damp, there's no hot water

I received my batteries within two days and have never had any problems with them with other purchases.
May just be a case of lost in the post, I would contact them.0 -

I haven't contacted them as I didn't pay anything so I can't really complain if I don't receive anything. It does seem from the responses above that they are reliable so if the Ipod appears again (and doesn't sell out so quickly) it might be worth a punt.

You (deliberately ?) misunderstood. This forum isn't for asking questions about online shops or experiences with them - it's solely (or should be !) about posting bargains. If everyone posted whatever rubbish they wanted in here (as is happening more and more because some people are too lazy to look at the other fora and decide which would be a better option), its effectiveness as a bargain forum is reduced to nil.0 -
Grabitnow.com offers a different bargain every day for a limited period of 24 hours - today it was a vacuum cleaner reduced from about ninety quid to £38.25 inc delivery (does this count as a bargain? unfortunately it's already sold out). However it's only a bargain if it actually arrives on your doorstep. All I'm interested in is whether or not if I send my cash will my bargain arrive. Luckily for me it seems that most people are happy to help :grouphug: and I have now ascertained that if I ever send money to Grabitnow then I will receive a bargain and not be ripped off.
I am now happy that I won't be ripped off and that's all I wanted to know. Anyway I have to go now - got a job interview this afternoon so got to start making myself look presentable!The fridge is empty, the walls are damp, there's no hot water

I got the batteries almost straight away, don't know how good they are but hey they are free. Ordered a couple of things off them and been happy with delivery and purchases. Bought a little remote control helicopter after checking with my mate (whose a model plane nut) and he was impressed with the price and how it flys. Ain't as easy as it looks by the way.A while ago now Grabitnow offered some free batteries as there daily deal, no cost and no p&p. I signed up and ordered some but they haven't yet arrived.
